[OOC] The Grim Crusade [Warhammer 30,000 RP]

[Specter189]

see the lust for laurels and honours that they crave.

@Jbcool

Such a lust for purity seals WHOOOOOOO

As for what The Great Bear will be doing, heh, wait and see

[Sophrus]

Well, for the people on (whatever it was) prime, anyone want to join the siege of the ork factory/mek boy stronghold?

[Whoami]

Would you be opposed to a character that isn't an Astartes Primarch. I was thinking of making a Saint who leads regiments of Solar Auxilia rather than Space Marines.

While that sounds cool as all hell, this is during the age of of the Imperial Truth.

@Hank

Good point. A Warmaster then. ;D

Every time I see mention of Saints, I'm reminded of Olanius Pius and how Gee Dubs ruined him, worse of all it was Abnett who wrote the book

@Specter189

When I think of Saints, I think of Macharius. Or another one of Dan Abnett's Saints, Sabbat.

@Whoami

It was interesting to see how quickly the Macharian Crusade went to hell after he died. Haven't actually read any books featuring him though, just the Gaunt's Ghosts series.

And yeah, Space Joan of Arc was badass

@Whoami

Minus the fact that a Warmaster actually has to be appointed by the Emperor (as it wasn't used before he gave the title to Horus), this RP focuses on the Primarchs and their legions...or at least I think that's the point/focus of it; aaaand, while I do think it'd be cool to have a non-Astartes and the like, this RP probably isn't the place to do it.

That's my two pennith.

Looks like I'll be mopping up the outlying Greenskins by myself then...

[Whoami]

Anyways, Saints and Warmasters aside. Would a Lord General work? I'm really liking this setting, and I'm intrigued by the thought of a normal human commanding millions among super-soldiers is a great little twist to everything.

[BCTheEntity]

@Whoami Uh, much as the idea seems interesting, the point of this RP is to produce and detail Primarchs and their Legions, as @Jbcool has stated. The actions of normal human beings, for the most part, goes beyond the scope of what I'm aiming for, even if they are very important humans.

[Sophrus]

@Whoami

You could do what I'm doing, I like the premise to, so a significant character with my primarch is an imperial army general. He leads the remnant regiment, soldiers found in war zones after their regiment had been destroyed.

[Hank]

I thought it would be fun to have a chatroom where we can all hang out and plot the destruction of the Imperium chill. Maybe talk about the RP a bit, do some strategizing, all that good stuff. I made a free chatroom here. Hope to see you there.

[BCTheEntity]

@Hank We've upgraded to a Skype conversation. If you want to get in on that, either send me a PM with your Skype name so I can add you as a contact, or ask me for mine so I can get you to add me as a contact. Or do one of those two things with another player, whatever.

EDIT: Also, I've changed the High Gothic name of the Zodiac Guard to Imperio Armatus, after a general agreement that it sounds better than Imperatio Armatus.

[mattmanganon]

Disregard this

[BCTheEntity]

@mattmanganon PM your sheets to me and Roosan. This has been explained in the first post. Even if they're incomplete, you're meant to PM them to us, not post them in the thread.

[mattmanganon]

@BCTheEntity I know, sorry about that. Again, I wanted it saved on the site so I didn't lose it. I was also maybe looking for a little feedback.

[BCTheEntity]

@mattmanganon Sure, but the site does save things sent via PM, and we can give feedback privately there. Just saying.

[mattmanganon]

Alright, i'm moving it there, now. I still would love to actuall discuss some interaction with others legions before finalizing it. Also, is it alright for them to have several Solar Auxillia armies under their command?

[Savage]

First!
