Deathwing is pretty great if you have the system to run it, it's basically Vermintide but Space Hulk. That Ork Hulk is pretty awesome, pretty much dead on.

As far as ways to be blown up in space go, ramming a Spacey Hulk to death is one of the more awesome ones.

I'm not really able to process what a gigantic game design blunder it is to leave you stuck with those worlds lost to the Eldar and unable to do anything about it because you completed the missions that make the Eldar non-hostile.

Actually, this may sound dumb, but is the Ork spelling of Colossus actually closer to how it should be, since the Greeks have no 'c' equivalent? Edit: Also, drat, what a monster it was... Samovar fucked around with this message at 17:34 on May 19, 2017 |

Space Marine is a game that can handle a number of enhancements as well, such as special skins for your gobbo stomper. Also: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4VXUDlcr0qI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O_Nox4gwLBo

Also I seem to recall the Eldar leaving the few worlds they had in my game, but I might be mistaken since it has been a while since then.

Ya'know, you could've just explained Thrawn as a human with a skin condition or something like that? But I don't mind either way.

He's also not the captain but rather the admiral, fleet commander rather than ship. I do love Thrawn, but Pellaeon desperately needs more love. Is he in the new book? It's still not on Audible in the UK, and that's the only way I really enjoy non-Warhammer books nowadays.

With respect to that otherwise tragic data recovery mission, I have nothing to say except to give three cheers and one cheer more for the right good Captain of the Pinafore.

Because fanservice. And as for replacing the unfortunate Cogitator/Chimaera (your pick), Captain Ramius of the Archangel reporting for duty.

Dorn doesn't need avenging, he's fine. https://youtu.be/M56aycpd9kA?t=1008 (this series should totally be canon, that would make 40K way more fun)

You had a chance to finish that last ship off in the last battle with a boarding action or a lighting strike, but you didn't.

For more names, we should have the Jupiter 2 under Captain Will Robinson And the Dorn's Vengeance under Captain Claw (I'll get you next time, Dorn Killer!) The word you're looking for with the launched sensor is PROBE. Veloxyll fucked around with this message at 09:46 on May 24, 2017 |

Apologies for the delay, I've been trying endlessly without success to pull off a really cool trick that can be done in the next mission, the fight with the Planet Killer, but have failed repeatedly. Have these stream VoDs of Star Trek Bridge Crew (VR) instead while I still fling myself at Abaddon to no avail: Bridge Crew Part 1 Bridge Crew Part 2 (Might still be processing, Twitch is being slow, enjoy this highlight if it is processing) HerpicleOmnicron5 fucked around with this message at 00:17 on May 31, 2017 |
