I do hope there's a Scum-focused book. I'd imagine it would be something like the various Necromunda hierarchies, but fleshed out for roleplaying.

Sierra Madre posted:Why would a Sister of Battle go AGAINST the Imperium? They're incredibly fanatical to the point where only about a handful have actually rebelled and only because of Chaos. Yeah, I think I'm more accepting of a Chaos Titmarine than a renegade Sister of Battle. A sororita would rather have a Space Marine lube their chainswords with her own blood than go against the Emperor and specifically the Adeptus Sororitas.

Hodgepodge posted:I like the Sisters as-is. Other than that, I kind of assume that this is what a Space Marine already is. You could put a young enough woman through the process and the result would probably just be a Space Marine, which would also be his new gender and biological sex. I'm pretty sure the Imperium is dogmatically locked in on that the Space Marines have to be male, since they're essentially based around cloning of the God-Emperor, but I can see Chaos chapters and renegades taking anyone and sticking a geneseed in them once they were proved themselves worthy to whatever God they follow. Some Slaanesh-following warband leader getting it into their head that Slaanesh wants some perfect supermodel Space Marines or Khornite warband letting some feral world amazons to be Chaos Space Marines.

kingcom posted:So Im having a hard time trying to identify what kind of games to actually run with the Only War system that wouldn't be possible in another 40K system. The only thing I can picture is if your running a game based upon the players creating a Regiment and then the campaign is about this Regiment's involvement in some particular conflict (sector wide Crusade perhaps). After having a discussion about OW with a friend, I can see why they spun this off into a separate game instead of the planned DH sourcebook. It sounds like it's based around Imperial Guard specialists and how their homeworlds govern their generation (similar to the chapter system in Deathwatch). Especially given how many notable units the, I think it became obvious that they couldn't keep it confined to a single book. It does sound like OW is strictly for Imperial Guard campaigns. I do wonder how the Guardsman from DH stacks up to a OW character.

Galaga Galaxian posted:My group are gonna start playing Only War for a few weeks starting this afternoon in a couple hours. We're playing a Drop Regiment who are going to be some of the first boots on the ground on a world that has gone silent(rebel?). We no idea what we're jumping into, if Command knows anything, they aren't telling us. All we've got are some exceptionally vague rumors of terrible things discovered by the Rogue Trader who investigated the planet's blackout. Wait, I've seen this movie. "Let's rock!"

Galaga Galaxian posted:I believe our GM is just using Paint.net, GIMP or a similar program and uploading it to his own hosting. We play on IRC. MapTools will probably be better in the long run. WH40KRP support is almost standard now and very well-developed. Even if you don't use the shared networking experience and just use it as a map, the framework makes things much easier. For instance, it saves the last attack roll, so you can go out and make defense rolls on any character you want and it'll calculate the MoS and damage location and whatnot. I'm not sure if they've got Only War support coded, but the last time I checked, they had Black Crusade, so it's probably already done by now.

nogic posted:I'll jump in here and say that I'm also getting into 40K RP, so hopefully you won't mind a question from me Benagain explained what happens with the rich and the normal citizens, but Space Marines can live a poo poo-long time if they aren't killed in action. I'm fairly certain the Sus-an Membrane, the suspended animation organ, has something to do with it.

Serpentis posted:Clearly if you sit on your arse in a tank all day, you do not get the constitution of a proper guardsman who MARCHES WITH NO SHOES AND BROKEN BLISTERS INSTEAD OF BONES ALL DAY. Now stop asking sensible questions in the Imperium, drat it Also, most poo poo that will wreck a Rhino, Leman Russ, or Baneblade happen the same things that will kill their occupants as well, so it's more a benefit really. It's the Emperor's mercy that you won't survive the tank getting scragged and having to be burned alive trapped inside it, like those with higher constitutions would face.

Tardcore posted:Holy poo poo, the Guardian Angels have the most out of place looking armor ever. Seriously that blue visor helmet looks straight up cyberpunk. I'm fairly certain that chestpiece comes from Robocop. Sormus posted:Speaking of fan designs and female Space Marines, I came across this recently: This is from a Challenge magazine, isn't it? They were never sticklers of anything canon outside of their own products of Traveler, 2300 A.D. and Twilight/Merc 2000.
