Warhammer 40k Black Crusade: Dread Fleet

I am planning to return to play by post RPing so to begin that I am going to do a Black Crusade campaign, players will each be given 70 ship points from Rogue Trader to construct a ship and crew in a homebrew sector. Players will start with a chaos warlord declaring himself Warmaster of Ultima Segmentum and offering rewards for independent warlords and captains to join him. So, any interest or questions?

40K: The Pirate's Life

I very much like the idea, I will try to participate if time allows.

The Dark Gods Servants

I cannot apologize enough disappearing for almost a week after hounding others to post. I went on vacation and have less access to internet than expected. I should be fine now though. I again apologize profusely.

The Dark Gods Servants

The Pirate Prince was expecting Warlord Beraesh to come stomping through the door into the bridge, instead he was taken off guard as the first people to come through the door were a handful of his own soldiers who were escorting a cadre he was unfamiliar with. At the sight of an astartes though both his plasma pistols came up, it was possible that his soldiers had been compromised in some way and looking at those who came through the door now his feeling on the odds of easily taking the ship and forcing those who once served Beraesh seemed like they could very well evaporate. With the six man squad who escorted them to the bridge he had a numerical advantage if his soldiers were not fully suborned by the group. Looking across them, an astartes of some kind, a woman in power armor with magnificent wings, and some sort of heretek with a servitor in tow. Something drew him to the woman but he had to focus on the greater threat, the astartes towered over everyone in the room and Alaistair took him to be the likely leader of the group or if nothing else their most powerful member.

Keeping his pistols ready but not pointed at them he prepared to order his men when one of them suddenly spoke up, "My prince, this is Sci-"

"I will learn who they are and they can introduce themselves sergeant, secure the room and prepare for enemies," The man jumped slightly just then began to set his men up around the room. Their lasrifles and flak armor may not help much but it would buy some time at least. Turning his attention back he looked upon the astartes, "I am Pirate Prince Alaistair Godwin Lafayette as you no doubt heard over the vox and perhaps have heard of me elsewhere. May I ask who you are?"

Furthermore, if a unit containing one or more models with this special rule is caught by a Sweeping Advance, they are not destroyed, but remain locked in combat instead.

Chapter Tactics: Imperial Fists
- Bolter Drill: Reroll all rolls of 1 to-hit with bolters
- Siege Master: Devastators gain Tank Hunter special rule and add 1 to the result when rolling for building damage.

PSYKER:
Grey Knight Terminator Squads know the Banishment and Hammerhand powers from the Daemonology (Sanctic) discipline.

BANISHMENT: WARP CHARGE 1
Banishment is a malediction that targets a single unit with the Daemon special rule within 24".
Whilst this power is in effect, all models in the target unit suffer a -1 penalty to their
invulnerable save (normally reducing it to 6+). This is cumulative with any other modifiers to
a Daemon’s invulnerable save, but cannot make it worse than 6+.

HAMMERHAND: WARP CHARGE 1
Hammerhand is a blessing that targets the Psyker. Whilst the power is in effect, the Psyker
and his unit have +2 Strength.

IG, that is excellent if you have some experience since since if I bring an astartes list we will have very different armies for the first game to help teach the basics.

Warhammer Weekend

Damn, most unfortunate and after the weekend i will be gone a lot so we can not have a grudge match after

Warhammer Weekend

Well you know the basics at least. I plan to teach using a 500 point game this Friday. Since you should still know the basics we can play to show them.

After work I will make a quick 500 point Grey Knight list and post it here. I run fluff focused list and use only the barest amounts of crunch.

Toellner have you played the tabletop much before?
