A terminator armor is 10 req. less than that, I think it's quite fairly priced
Well if it is really at the old values, then here comes my final loadout:
- Skapulan Bolter (70req)
- Stalker Rounds (5 Req)
- Vengance Rounds (Tactical Ammunition)
- Missile Launcher (10 Req)
- Jump Pack (15 Req)
Have also changes two skills after detecting that Space Marines obviously are not trained to Dodge nowadays(?!) and after deciding to go with the jump pack like a true Raptor!
Where does it say about not getting dodge? Couldn't see that in the errata. Is that from the 2nd ed book?

Core rules p36 mentions that all space marines have Dodge as a skill.
Is that from the 2nd ed book?
There is no 2nd ed book for Deathwatch. Or I totally missed something big!
Oh well good catch, then their character sheets are bugged as hell. As dodge is put as basic skill but unrained and awareness is even not skilled at all! Must correct that and expend the 300from dodge!
Yeah, my final REQ is going to be:
- Duty's End (60)
- Thunderhammer (30)
Alongside my Sig Plasma Gun, Servo-Arm, Mk VIII w/ TFIW(1) and Emergency Bolter, I should be good to go.
Phew! Yeah I was getting confused over the 2nd ed thing.
Ok so how do we sit with unspent req? I currently have 3. Loghir needed a few spare for medical stuff (seems a team purchase), I could do with changing my sword to a chainsword if there is enough. Dipolemaglock would be great for my chainsword (brings Counterattack into play a lot more easily) but far from essential and perhaps we could look at cluster mines, hopper mines, more grenades or some such. Any thoughts?
I've got 10 Unspent REQ.
As for Mines and such, it depends on how this all goes down. Do we go to the orks or do they come to us?
If they're coming to us, yeah mines would be a good idea. If not, probably not the best idea since I doubt we'd have the time to deploy them properly.
...If we could take a Vortex Grenade, however, and lob it onto the Ork Horde from above...
If you guys have 13 req free, I'd ask for 4 for combat webbing (+20 medicae). Then I'd suggest chains word and dipole maglock (7 total) for Elli, since he's got counter attack and its a balanced weapon. Then just a couple of extra frag grenades?
Well, luckily for you, Combat Webbing comes with 4x Extra Krak and Frag Grenades.
Or something :P
So if I am tracking things correctly we are just waiting on Rollo to decide what he gets with his req?
Choosing and history Armor from rites of battle:
skill of the artificer
mk6 Corvus, +10Ag, 2rolls, +15 Autosenses, 8/9AP
I am pretty happy, mk6 is awesome. But I am a bit lost with that two histories, especially with the first one as it does not provide a real change?
@Micrastur Browman has allowed us to choose the history we rolled, or the one before or after it (if you roll a 6, you can take the history maked 5, 6 or 7)
Do Mk6 roll 2 histories?
Jup they roll 2 times. Lets see ...
Second roll ... I'll just take the mk8 chest armor with the 11ap
First roll ... the next higher roll would be +10WS and +5Fel ... but it also states that 7-10 are only examples and are up to the GM. I would love some kind of boni to BS instead, maybe something like this:
"Gauntlets of the disciplined Wrath: It is said that this Mk4 gloves (AP7) were worn by hundreds of Devastators and Marksmen of different legions and chapters throughout the history of the Imperium. The gauntlets seems to absorb the recoil of any weapons fired by it and support the wearer in keeping a calm aim even in the most dire of situations. +10BS, +5Fel for the wearer."
?
I am sorry guys. I'm having issues selecting my gear atm. Will you guys be able to hang on a few more days?

What do you want to do? Fast Melee, Tough melee, Volume of fire, high damage shots?
Since I said Scorpelio would head down to the Armory to help prepare in any way, is there any in-game benefit to me doing so?
Since I'm, at this point, a Junior Deathwatch Techmarine at best, I can't buff weapons like a Forge Lord (I'm having a hard time saying Master of the Forge...that 30k focus though...) I doubt I can actively influence the gear that's being brought along for the mission.
Guess its more for the fluff than anything else. But it is your duty after all, and also religion! They are awakening the ancients after all, guess that's something like a religious awakening for a techmarine I imagine^^.
Averruncus, don't you have 5 req. left? 80 for bird, 15 for JP.
Averruncus, don't you have 5 req. left? 80 for bird, 15 for JP.
I do. I'm considering taking a dipole mag-lock with this 5 req., but it's not a "must have", so if someone really needs these 5 req., just let me know.
So just checking we are happy with Loghir 's suggestions about extra req? If so I will adapt my profile sheet.
High damage shots sounds good. Thanks for understanding. I really don't take pleasure in being the hold up.
So take a Lascannon for 30, Iron Halo for 40, a jump pack for 15 and a clip of metal storm rounds in case you need crowd control for 15.
I'm wondering, how willing are you to permit Non-TDA Portable Heavy Flamers?
They're finally a thing on the Tabletop soooooooooo :p

Deathwatch says nothing on the subject. Why would there be an issue? Sternguard have had portable heavy flamers since 5th, horus heresy can even equip heavy weapons squads with them.
You know, for some reason I thought it was a Mounted Weapon hence my question since that would have made it a TDA-Only option per RAW :p
*The more you know!*
In my other campaign I wear a heavy flamer all the time on my Salamander - because: fire! Didn't even know they count as mounted? Thought they are simply "heavy"?
I checked again and its listed as Heavy I don't know why I thought it was mounted, honestly.
Only mounted weapons afaik, are chainfist, assault cannon and breaching drill or what it's called.
Hell if a Catachan weapons team can carry one, then a space marine, certainly can.
Rollo have you made up your mind yet? I would like to launch the next mission before everyone loses interest.
In order to keep this thread alive, Browman, can you tell us if we have to select a team leader and an oath now? Or do we keep this for after the actual mission briefing?
I am fine with you selecting a leader and oath now.
I would vote for brother Loghir or Averruncus and Oath of knowledge for sweet +10BS/WS against Orcs, as this mission seems to consists entirely of fighting Orcs, a straight +10 in combat seems pretty sweet.
I second Loghir or Averruncus being lead.
Sure thing, I'll do it if Averruncus doesn't want to.
Oath of Knowledge sounds good to me
As a player, I'd like to be team leader, but i'm pretty sure Averruncus is not interested in it.
So, I'm fine with Loghir as leader and Oath of Knowledge.
Squad mods are not really impressives, but the Oath's benefit largely make up for that.
That all makes a lot of sense to me, Strong point can be very useful, even if the other 2 are more limited. I'm happy.
If we haven't heard from rollo by tomorrow I will move things forward.
Yeah Averruncus, I assumed IC you didn't want to.
Did Paulus Buccio become a Blackshield after Jersey Shore? Calling himself now Pauly B, instead of Pauly D?

I'll take your recommended selection.
I am in the process of moving for the next week or so, I will still be around, but not able to post as much.
To add to that. I get married in just over 2 weeks, so lots of wedding details to sort out,s o my posting may be a little sparse for the next 2-3 weeks. Bot me if needed, although I will try to keep posting.
OH! Congratulations Elli! In 2 weeks?! I was so busy the last 2 weeks before my wedding I had to use the time when doing a #2 to brush my teeth :D
Sorry guys, driving 8+ hours a day is tiring. Don't have the energy to update.
You're in a biker gang?
I should have an update later today.
Did you get sucked into a video game again this weekend Brownman? :D
