I'll do my best to not have us overlap, there is some redundency in skills, I think our charecters have enough diversity and interest to be more cooperative and less competitive.
Thanks fellas for letting me play this out, I'll update Samsun now and post in the IC thread after.
Are we missing anyone, I thought there were 5 of us...But it seems there's only 3 of us really replying. Hope others join us soon. If not, there was no shortage of others wanting to join.

Okay, I am fine with you playing a warpsmith, but using my avatar in the other game is not acceptable!
Because tone does not carry in writing, no worries.
I'm pretty sure I had it first. This was an alias from months ago in BC game that crashed..you can find the post in the profile. Anyways, you're in the DW game too, sweet. We'll be seeing alot of each other it seems.

On second thought, guys, I don't think I have the time for another game. I'm going to have to pull out. Luckily, I'm sure there are some other people that would love to play.
Whatever. We've got that other guy who posted in this thread who basically has a character ready to go. Should I send him a PM? EDIT: I just did.

That would be my vote.

Hi guys! Ready to go!
oof...never made my two purchases from starting Infamy.
We'll go with Light Power Armor
--Auto-senses
--Vox Link
--Replenishing Power Supply
1d10 ⇒ 4
for the unique feature (re-roll 1 and 10 I think)
And also:
Torture Tools

What's this about purchases from starting infamy? I thought I was limited to exactly what was on my archetype.
At character creation you are allowed to take a number of pieces of equipment equal to your infamy bonus (my infamy is 23, therefore, I can take two pieces of equipment) You are only allowed to take stuff that has a final acquisition modifier no less than -10.

Samsun |

You get 2 free acquisitions at -10 Modifier. I took an Implant and Signal jammer.
Heph, you too could get Light Power Armr, its at -10. (very rare, single, common quality)
Something at Rare, you could have good quality.
It's possibel to get a weapon at Extrem. rare, but only if you downgrade it.
I tried to go through and see everyone elses acquisition, so I could help out the group more, but don't be afraid to get some cool stuff for yourself. Black Blood could be very useful to you.

Hephaest |

I'm only allowed to select a quantity of one? It would be funny to buy multiple assimilations with one of the choices.
Black blood would be good, so would armor, an MIU, an embedded auspex, and others. Assimilation is rare for me, so I might switch it out for as many assimilations as possible.

Depending on the acquisition modifier you may be able to purchase thousands. The rule is that all modifiers should be applied, and the final acquisition modifier cannot be more difficult than -10.
Power Armor starts off at -20, but since I am only taking one set of armor, that reduces the modifier to -10, acceptable for start-up gear.

Hephaest |

FuriousPhil, would it be acceptable to change my loadout? For my good cybernetics, I want to switch out the mechanicus assimilation for black blood, and for my infamy acquisitions, I want to grab light power armor and it says I can get 2-4 rare items, and each mechanicus assimilation is rare for me as a heretek, so I would like to grab those if possible.

Now I know what people were talking about when they mentioned that "glitch." I think it was supposed to replace "The Flesh is Weak" talent but as Heretek it being only rare you can take quantity of it, which I think is a little broken. It's not like one implant or one piece of something...
I don't mind, not that it matters as I'm not the GM, but I hope you would limit yourself on that. I don't think they intended it to ever reach Power Armor level protection and above, there just isn't that much flesh for you to replace. Your size and weight would have penalty, as it does in other books as you slowly become more machine. I heard of people complaining about this and taking it to impossible numbers, where you no longer feared being hurt.
Most books go up to level 5 of the "Flesh is Weak" talent, but they also have Enhanced Frames and Machinator Array, etc, servo arms, and all done piecemeal over multiple levels that must be purchased, not acquired. Seems more realistic and feasible.
I don't mind you changing your loadout, you didn't know and we're still at the opening scene, so go for it I say. Just try to be reasonable with the Heretek Assimilation.
Please don't in the future with Acquisition tests, choose a higher quantity than 2-4. I won't be.

Samsun |

Im going to limit myself to no more than 5, around one at each level or every other. Honestly it's not as crucial for me as a marine, but for humans with less wounds and no unnatural Toughness, I could see you needing taking advantage of it more. When we are allowed acquisitions, there are other things I desire more, but that's just me.

Zurias |

Posted a "Start of Darkness" story to my character sheet. I hope it's disturbing enough!

FuriousPhil |

Haven't had a lot of free time this weekend. I do want to go over everything and address any issues (Flesh is Weak, acquisitions, etc.) but I need some sit-down time to do so. So hang in there - should have something up Sunday evening and starting Monday I will be posting regularly between 5-12 PM EST.

Zurias |

LOL! I never did look up my armor customization from yesterday morning! Apparently my armor has spikes. Which is cool. It actually appeals to the roleplay.

Zurias |

Hey guys,
I better explain myself before roleplay gets in the way. Please note that I'm playing a truly horrible person. A hateful, petty and very vain sociopath. I may say or do things that are very off-putting.
Please note that there are certain limits I will not go to in group. Be assured that I wont betray the group. I may take advantage of one or all of you at any given time for personal gain, I may even request that you do something antithetical to your Devotions if you have any. It is in Zurias' nature to explore his own limits and push the boundaries of others.
Please please please do not take this personally, ok? I want this to be fun. If you have opportunities to take advantage of Zurias I would advise doing so!

FuriousPhil |

So it turns out that I really don't have the time needed to devote to this game to make it worth everybody's while. I thought I would have ample time to post in the evenings, but I have been incredibly busy with work (I own a construction company) even when I'm not at work. In addition I am building my own house and helping my girlfriend move. Yeah.
I apologize profusely to everyone - it might be possible to find another GM for the game if you would like to keep it going. Sorry to let you guys down.

Oh no...before you go please link this to the Recruitment thread pleasepleaseplease
