[OOC] Warhammer 40k: Kommandoz - Behind Enemy Lines (Ork RP) (Open)

[Torack]

That actually did clear it up a whole lot!

For some strange reason I just kept imagining that warp tunnel graphic Star Wars uses when a ship goes into light speed and it just jumbled everything up! But yeah, thanks a whole lot fam!

[Jb]

@Torack Yes, the Warp (or Immaterium) is quite literally an undercurrent of our own universe - like if you were to cut a hole in the top of a box, fell into it, and found yourself in an entirely different universe. Or, if you're more spiritual, how some people think of 'another side' right 'beside' our own.

The Warp is quite reasonably described as Hell itself, ships having to rip a hole in the fabric of space and slide through it using the Navigators to guide them... and still with the possibility of coming out at a different location, point in time, or never coming out at all.

Imperial vessels also use what's called a 'Gellar Field' as a form of protective bubble around their ships during Warp travel; without it things can get in to your ship just as readily as you want to get out.

T'au on the other hand do not use Warp technology, their ships doing long-distance jumps by 'skimming' the surface of the ethereal ocean like stones.

Orks... Well... Orks thirst for battle and carnage like the fungal virus they are, and therefore don't bother even using protective shields when jumping - what would be the point, Daemons make for good fighting!

This meme also explains it well, and makes me laugh: knowyourmeme.com/photos/961046-warham…

I return to the guild after a year! Also hello gents, this looks fun!

Hider

Name:Kargut Blastikk

Nickname(s):Da Mad Bombah

Klan:Bad Moons

Role:Tank Busta (demolition "expert")

Common Armament: Camouflaged 'Ard boy Armor (The camo even works oddly enough)
Tank Hammer
Tank Busta bombs
Lot'a 'splosives!!!

Anything else: "What you mean I aint stelfy? Da Humies can't raise da alarm if I blew it up now can dey? 'sides, not much use sneekin after a big ol Kaboom! Humies all worried 'bout their tanks an' buildins, too busy to be shootin' at me!"

His 'Ard Boy Armor is not intentionally camouflaged, it is caked with enough mud and plant debris it has become passable camouflage.

He also carries a necklace of gears, nuts, and other assorted components of vehicles he has smashed or 'sploded the most precious of these is a thick gear supposedly belonging to an Imperial Titan (this is entirely... not true)

[Jb]

@Sophrus Oh damn! It's 'ya boi'.

You are most welcome, Soph - just the maniac bomber we need. Feel free to slap him up in the Character tab at your leisure.

@Skwint OI YE GIT! Where's the Doc? (If you do need more time, that's fine too.)

To everyone else, opening post goes up later today/early tomorrow. 'Ere we go.

My God, three accepted characters, and not a hint of that Blood Axe core in sight. Guess I'll have to correct this imbalance.

Da Sneakiest Boy Ya Eva Saw

Name: Snekart 'Eadsmakka

Nickname(s): "Boltagit"

Klan: Blood Axes

Role: Kommando

Common Armament: An Imperial 'eavy bolta purchased for a lot of Imperium cash. Otherwise, standard Kommando gear - soot-blackened choppa, a couple of stikkbombs, and camouflaged hide jacket, trousers, and boots.

Anything else: Snekart is very proud of his 'eavy bolta, insisting it be referred to as such instead of the proper Orky name of big shoota, and given "da roight kustom ammo" to properly explode his foes in battle. Other Orks find this tendency infuriating, hence his nickname. He also wears stripes of purple and red on his back, his reasoning being that the enemy won't be looking for any purple, so it'll make him sneakier, whilst the red will let him sneak faster - but, since he won't be sneaking away from enemies anyway, they're on his back so the other boys can see where he is.

Also, that meme is wrong. Astropaths don't chart courses through the Warp, and Navigators don't scream in agony in the process. MY GOD HOW DARE THEY GET IT WRONG AHH.

EDIT: Turns out we do in fact have a Blood Axe in sight. Pardon me. Still, better to have two Blood Axes than one, and better to have two Kommandos sneakin' about as well.

[Jb]

@BCTheEntity I just set the RP to 'full' BUT it's you, and another Blood Axe can't hurt... so you're lucky one this time.

Good sheet, post him up!

[Skwint]

Name: Ugrokk Limcutta

Nickname: Dok

Klan: Blood Axe

Role: Painboy

Common Armament: Slugga, choppa, dok's tools

Anything else: Due to the impracticality of collecting payments when out sneakin' about, the Dok has taken to keeping a tally of the treatments he administered to each of the ladz. By the time the mission ends he has forgotten which set of tally marks was for which ork, because he never actually labels them. The others are then left to decide amongst themselves how to split the total payment they owe to their resident painboy.

[Jb]

@Skwint Love it! Get him into the Character tab.

[Sophrus]

Quick question, are there other orks with us? Or is it just our unit?

[Skwint]

I believe that we have been cut off, so it's just us I think.
