Hello :) Looks like we are making progress.
Mar 20, 2018 12:57 pm
Nice! We're up and running again!!

GM, can you create a new thread 'Character Builder Tool'? I'll then copy and paste all the information I had previously posted on FB for that 40k character builder tool.

@BigBoom are you familiar with space ship combat in rogue trader. I realised I have never run it before.
Mar 20, 2018 4:49 pm
Not really. I've played in one Rogue Trader starship combat and that was a while back. Also, the situation we're currently in might be more planetary vehicle combat rather than outer space starship combat. I'm completely unfamiliar with vehicle combat...

If a thread is marked GM only please refrain from posting in it. If you want things to be emended post here and I will do it.

There is a way to make it so we can't see the GM only thread. There is a permissions setting. It is in the Administrator Control Panel in the upper right corner.

1. Click on the Adminstrator Control Panel in the upper right corner
2. Add a SubForum
3. Click on the key icon (Permission icon).
4. That will take you to the Permission Page for GM Notes. You should double check and make sure it is the right Permission Page by looking at the bottom left corner and you will see Subform>GM Notes highlighted Red
4. You will see that each player has their name listed under USER. Next to their name is the word Create.
5. Click Create
6. Click Edit
7. There will be a list of permissions. Each permission has Yes-Inherent-No. In the Read box click No.
8. Scroll down a bit and click SAVE
9. Do that for each character.

It is only I don't want you to edit them. Look at them all you want. They contain very important information.

As a note for the two of you that played on facebook, small things may be renamed. If you liked the old name better say and I'll change it.

Sorry it's taking so long to get the character put together... I was away from computer for a while, and tonight was my first real chance to put it together... then at the end I discovered that the excel file wasn't doing the 'save character sheet' thing properly. I'll probably need t o put the character together manually... but I'll do that tomorrow. It is though all planned out!

OOC:
Uh... could I attempt to dodge too? This guy hits pretty hard... Also was I suppose to add my Strength bonus also? Unsure on a whip.
Yup, you should be able to dodge. Each round on our turn we get to take either one full action or two half actions. In addition, we all get one reaction per round that we perform when it's not our turn - typically a dodge or parry.

As for adding the strength bonus, yes, I believe you get to do that with a whip as it applies to all melee weapons and I couldn't find any notation saying that the strength modifier is excluded from whips.
Mar 27, 2018 2:55 pm
Yep I agree with Bigboom.
Mar 27, 2018 2:57 pm
You also take your toughness bonus off of damage as well as armour.

So peeps after this chapter what would you like to do? What goals do you have? What mix of combat, social exploration etc would you like to have? Would you like to amass you own fleet and become the rulers of a planet? Or are you fine raining a subordinate to Artimis?

I can’t speak for the rest of you, but just because I’ve fallen on tough times doesn’t mean I want to be stuck under artimas’ thumb for the rest of my life. That means we’ll need to do some high risk high reward ventures to get the capital we need to buy a ship. After that we can do something fun, like exploring or something...

I like what Ronda is thinking!
Mar 28, 2018 4:44 am
Perhaps.... Ron? Kekeke!

But yes, I agree! We should strike out on our own since Ron has her own warrant. If we don't have a ship, then it's time to look into acquiring one somehow and crewing it up. If Ron doesn't already have a lot of wealth at her disposal, then she might have to find an 'investor' who will 'loan' profit factor but may require some high risk tasks be performed.

The question of an 'investor' is an interesting one. It could be a crime lord who wants us to engage in piracy and the cold trade. Or perhaps the ecclesiarchy who demands we force some worlds that have been out of touch with the Imperium of Man to take a knee to the god emperor. Or the Imperial Navy who wants us to investigate and eliminate a xeno threat that they don't have time to look into. Or the Inquisition who has discovered a series of threats from the forces of chaos and has enlisted our aid to search and destroy those threats. Or something else entirely.

Those are just some thoughts off the top of my head. I personally like the idea of piracy, buccaneering, and cold trade smuggling but I'm okay with anything really. I definitely am enjoying encountering more xenos though - regardless of whether they're friendly or want to rip us to shreds!
