Character creation
Questions, rules and rolls for character building will be found here

First try at a custom character sheet template

Edit : To allow for better choice of specialties (and honestly, for better survival odds, the Universe is a merciless place in 40K :P), i'll allow 1swap of stats between two characteristics per character.

The dice say: "Put down the gun, Librarian!"

Re: Character creation
Emperor, bless these dice so that I may smite your enemies!

Edit: I'm perceptive! Might make some sort of scout/sniper to reflect that. Not sure yet, I kind of like Librarian the most too. :)

Re: Character creation
Not sure, Mel. They're both really good.

I've submitted Cloten, my Blood Angel Deathwatch Assault Marine. I still need to record equipment stats, and fill out some of the history details.

Also, the character sheet template in the top post isn't shared. Did you add it to the Library? There is an icon to do that in the list of characters.
