Hello there, I’m the GM for this RP, Andreyich. This interest check if for an RP set in the Warhammer 40,000 universe. The focus is on the Imperial Guard, specifically the leadership of regiments - you. In this RP you will be playing as the leader of a Regiment from a planet, having to coordinate with fellow commanders various attacks and defences, famous last stands or glorious charges. You will at times sit comfortably in an orbital command, whilst at others be right in the trenches with only metres of your own men separating you from madmen hoping to pull out your tonsils with their tongue.



Any sort of Regiment will be allowed, be you outriders, super-heavy tanks, flyers, mechanized or motorized infantry, support artillery, scouts, Tempestus Scions, drop troops; the list goes on! I will however insist quite heavily that your regiment be as homebrew as possible, with your own planet, recruiting tradition, arms and tactics, etc. If you do want to use a canon regiment, the sheet will have to be phenomenal, with a long list of battlefield experiences and fleshing out, preferably with some quirks that the regiments of choice don’t typically see (as an example, make your Mordian Regiment consist of outriders - a great rarity for the hive peoples of Mordia).

Beyond that, I am a rather persistent GM that will not give up on this, I will provide you with pictures, music, detailed descriptions, an experience to remember! You will travel the galaxy, see (if not quite meet) famous figures, fight extraordinary foes, have talks of your homeworlds in the officers’ lounge, whatever tickles our fancies!

Very much a fan of the Guard. Color me interested.

I'll try to get an OOC up for early next week, since I have 3+ people interested

I'm super interested.

I am interested. Already know what kind of regiment I want.

I sure do love making up custom regiments! I'd love to be in this game. In many ways, i was made of it!

Here is a brief on some of the regiments ive created and played in the past just to get the creative juices flowing.

1.) Skal "Sundogs" PDF, ultra violent Australians that come from a hot planet where the equator is unliveable and they live at the poles near giant lakes. The planet has both carbon and crystal based life forms. They are a light infantry regiment focussing on mobility through the desert savana. Their main weapon is a full las-rifle but their armour is light flack, they also have a chainsaw bayonet for it. Their training is harsh as they have to be the cream of the crop to become a guardsman on their planet, otherwise the manpower is diverted by the governor towards profit. Their every day training basically involves just hitting thins all day long; wooden planks, eachother using kickboxing, etc. Their basic training involves spending 2 weeks out in the desert, they are already a frontier world but they specialise even more in the field craft. This is what allows them to move quickly over impassable areas and flank the enemy. Their heavy weapons are long barrel flamer and multi laser.

2.) 41st Siderial Anti-Armour. A trench fighting regiment that was recruited as a favour to they rogue trader Augustus Eldawyrd. They are professional and even have a storm trooper detachment. Their heavy weapons are; missile launcher with inferno missiles, and heavy stubber. They are a hive world anti tank regiment, that likes to use missile launchers. Known to employ inferno missiles to clear enemies out of structures by starting fires. Each guardsmen is also equipped with two hotshot las packs, these can be used against heavy infantry and can even be recharged. With the recruitment into a rogue traders personal army, they have been issued desert survival gear, though they are most at home in a hive city. An unusual adaptation of the Sidereal guardsmen is keen hearing which they use to detect approaching vehicles. This is only bolstered by the fact their commander likes to lead from the front, instilling in them the rapid reaction that could further deprive the enemy of a surprise attack. While they will be taken a long way from their home and resupply of fresh troops, they remain optimistic that the rogue trader will lead them to victory and that they will be able to actually retire and raise families in his domain.



3.) 44th Targon "Purebloods", a Blood Angel Auxilia guard force. They are gland warriors.

@Banzai Tracers
I'd really rather regiments 1/2 since Auxilia aren't legit guardsmen

Oh these are just some of my past regiments. I wasnt going to play the Auxilai. For this game im going to be creating a new one.

Would you be opposed to a really specialised arm of the Cadians?

Nevermind i'll just make them a regiment that triest to copy some parts of the Cadian structure.

@Banzai Tracers
Depends on what you have in mind, I'm going to need more information
