Still got a bolt pistol.
GM-Gathrix would a Bolt Pistol fire under water? Did a quick Google and the general consensus was yes as the ammo is self-contained and apparently there is previous in the lore, but your call.
Has any of you a ranged weapon left, or are they all laying on the now-sunk pillar?
Vorenthar still has a bolt pistol
Still have my bolt pistol.
Bolt Pistol
CHAINSWORRRRRRDDDDDDDD!!!!
I believe most astartes' weapons are designed to fire in all environments, certain qualities or conditions might be added depending on the environment. As for firing underwater there will be no significant change to a bolt pistol's profile.
End of Match 2 AAR
Experience Everyone gets 750 exp
Renown Everyone gets 2 renown. Brother Cato gets an additional renown for making it out of the pit first(This is more of a reflection of respect you gain from those watching the match than your battle brothers.)Brother Tiamat gets an additional 1 Renown for impressive use of improvised weaponry against the tentacle beast
Requisition You all gain additional 5 requisition in addition to any requisition you had at the start of this match. Any weapons or gear you had for this match are lost, but you get to keep your armor
Honorable Mentions
Best Role Play Brother Vorenthar gets it this match. Good banter between Astartes and backing up your brother who charged the enemy.
Best Use of Fate Point Brother Tiamat to spare his comrades friendly fire.
MVP you vote.
A very tight voting for MVP. Little things will decide. My vote goes to Brother Tiamat because a Salamander with a Flamethrower always rocks. Though everyone has performed greatly, really.
XP: Raised Str for 500 and Agi for 200.
Brother Tiamit for cleansing all xenos, no matter what.
Tiamat... because... fire
Wow, thanks for all that good feedback guys :-)
My vote goes for Vorenthar, playing a damn good (read: Stubborn, head-on, tactic-destroying) Black Templar.
@Gathrix: I really enjoy this game. I especially like the way you go with creative actions and the highly cinematic setting. Sometimes I miss some kind of map (I am quite used to maps in somewhat complex fights) but you resolve any kinds of uncertainties really good, so it is really just a matter of getting used to it (again, after getting used to maps in recent times because my players prefer it that way). Long made short: I am looking forward to get the next match (and get out of here an kick their ass!)
About Honorable Mentions: I reached 3 HM now, what happens now?
XP usage
Left: 100
Gained: 750
Total left: 900
+5 WS (500)
+5 Str (200)
However, would these xenos filth be considered heretics or not? Because, if so, I will swap out the +5 WS for Scourge of Heretics
Advance: +5WS 500, left 250
I think I would not have access to the wargear, to modify it between fights, do I? Otherwise I would likely take Trade [Armourer], and maybe be able to applt the Salamander Solo-Mode ability?
Well as my vote is largely irrelevant now, I will just mention those I thought were in the running. Tiamat obviously and I think why is very well covered, Vaylund for complete portrayal of hate over tactics, his chapter would be proud, and finally Vorenthar for backing up a brother.
Xp increases I will do tonight.
MVP Goes to Brother Tiamat then.
Now that you have 3 Bloodsmith Domos will award you with a purity seal Brother Tiamat.
I was going to vote for Tiamat as well. Feliks could not get free from the tentacle beast, and Tiamat's quick thinking and improvisation made the difference.

Xenos purity seal... we will have words Tiamat! *snickers*

Yeah, I think so. What a waste of parchment... It stands for nothing getting it from some Xeno filth...

Next match, the 6 Marines discussing the piece of filth that has to go through for a purity seal while ignoring the arena :P

sidenote: I am loving this tbh!
Ok was thinking swim after this last little challenge, but couldn't quite afford it.
Took Battle Rage for 400 and Charm for 300, which with left over from last mission leaves 150 spare.
I am taking Silent Hunter Talent for 1000xp and the basic Agility increase for 200.
Requisition You all gain additional 5 requisition in addition to any requisition you had at the start of this match. Any weapons or gear you had for this match are lost, but you get to keep your armor.
This raises a pair of doubts.
·At the start of this match, I had 10+20 requisition. Do I have 35 now? Or just 25?
·Do we get to keep only the requisition-free armour, or all of it? I spent 10 requisition on extra pieces and it seems a bit unfair that I can keep them while others spent their points elsewhere.

Correction: I meant Perception Basic, not Agility Basic.

You get 35 req. It is a bit unfair, welcome to life with the Dark Eldar :). Its more about not wanting armed slaves about. I didn't tell you before because frankly the Dark Eldar wouldn't have told you either. Let it be more reason to hate them.

LoL, I totally love that explanation ;-)
But I think most of use did take at least one or two additional pieces of armor, didn't we? So it is not that bad.One thing about the Salamander (Passive)Solo-Mode, which is about maintaining your own wargear (applying Boni, removing Mali from Weapons) ... any way to apply it in this setting? I think it's another thing to hate the Dark Eldars for, but it does not hurt to ask ... Well we are talking about Dark Eldar, so most likely it would hurt after all?^^
Before the next match Bloodsmith Domos sneaks into Brother Tiamat's cell. "Dragon Warrior, I have a gift for you. YES PRIDUS, BUT WE MUST SPEAK QUIETLY!SHHHH! I collect these that I find. This one I give to you." He applies a Purity seal with a wax head of a dragon on it. It reads " My sword is at the Emperor's command. I answer to no other man, living or dead."
Eventually you will get "Signature wargear" from Domos we just are not there yet.
any answer in regards of my question about the heretics?

It takes some time for the Techmarine to respond to this gesture of ... good will? "So there is pride and faith in the Emperor left in you ... Domos? Is there something I can do for another follower of the Omnissiah?"
This is a true Purity Seal after all ... I will wear it, upholding the honor of its original owner until I can return it to the Chapter...
any answer in regards of my question about the heretics?
You might come against heretics, but the Dark Eldar are not heretics, they are Xenos. A heretic in this game is an Imperial that has gone bad to keep it simple. I will include rogue Imperial Psykers (Witches) and Mutants as well. Basically all the things the Ordo Hereticus hunts down.
***************************AAR Done Thank you for feeback. Next Match will be soon**********************************************************
A few days after the match in the water you are gathered up again. No beatings this time. You are brought to large door of some sort, almost looks like a drawbridge. A Commissar is chained to the door with some odd symbol painted behind him. The commissar is screaming " Let me down you Xenos dogs! I will kill every last one of you! FOR THE EMPEROR!"
Behind you the Bloodbride Mehakeri walks up, with her is the beastmaster you saw only a glimpse of in the deep water last match. He says nothing and sternly looks ahead through a skull mask.
A beaten tau servant translates for her "May Qa'Leh accept this blessing of blood. Those who are about to die, witness this sacrifice." The door begins to open, as it does it rips the body of the commissar apart.
"For the Emperor! For the Emperor! For the..." He screams until he can not anymore.
Before you is a team of Chrono Warriors, augmented arena slaves that have to kill to gain more time to live. You have seen them fight before, their desperation makes them deadly. The ground before you acts as a conveyor belt and pushes you into the arena, once inside the door closes and you are in a proper coliseum now. There are countless rows of watchers, mostly Dark Eldar, but some other races, cheering and cursing.
As Vayland recovers in his cell and his hatred fumed further by these menacing games, he couldn't wait for the next round to begin. Something primal was burning at his soul and in an instance something within fused and surged throughout his mechanical flesh. He felt more power and strength than he had ever known.
I could easily break free but he knew it to be instantly foolish with no plan. I can not leave my brothers here. While his chapter brothers would be quick to decide them too weak, Vaylund had come to learn the benefits of team work, and if he wanted to live long enough to exact his revenge, he would need allies.
The fire within tempered his will and he resolved to contain his anger until the target was deserving.
Do we have the same requisition choices as last time, or have they changed, beside our requisition points?
Was posting my XP stuff when the next match info came.
I'm in. Vaylund updated (assuming approval)
Do we have the same requisition choices as last time, or have they changed, beside our requisition points?
Same choices for now, but expect to find some things in the arena.
Knutr finds himself again in front of the crowd. Thousands of Xenos cheering them for the show they're going to give them.
Knutr smiles. He even tries to raise his head and arms, as if saluting the crowd.
-Yes. Rejoice yourselves. You like blood and gore, let's see how much you enjoy eating your own balls... if you even have them. You just wait...
Ok then I'll go with:
Heavy Flamer + 1 Ammo = 12
Chainsword = 6
2xArmor (left+right arm) = 10
Bolt pistol = 5
Bolt Ammox2 = 2
= 35 Total
RP will come later, lunch time incoming.

Also including armour pieces?

Yes.
Gameplay is up, once you have posted here that you are ready go ahead and post in game. If I spot something wrong I will let you know
After getting up from a prayer to see the new sideshow and the massacre of one of the Emperor's commisars had his blood boiling from the moment they were pushed out. Seeing their group being slowly pushed into the arena he regarded his brothers for a brief moment before the pained whirl of the chainsword could be heard as he turned it on.
"Brothers, another day of games for this Xenos filth is here, Let's make them bleed and suffer, I am done with these petty games and sending inferior xenos filth at the emperor's finest. We aren't slaves nor gladiators. We haven't been raised in the dark like the Night Lords in the past to revel in mindless slaughter. We are the chosen ones of Russ, Vulkan, Sanguinius, Ferrus Manus and Rogal Dorn. LET US BRING DOWN THE HOLY AVENGING WRATH UPON THE THE ENEMIES OF THE EMPEROR!!"
Is it going to be possible to use Tactical Expertise during this as well now?
I thought you were an Assault Marine. Actually, by looking at your sheet, I can't manage to get what you really are :P

Had to take the assault marine template, but use the tactical marine thing, this was done if I am going for Chaplain when I can :P
So hence the confusion possible :)
Well, I would advice having a closer look and trying to change some things to be clearer (like you having Heightened Senses: Smell :P), but if the GM is ok with that, so am I.

Here is the part about the Tactical / assault marine I was talking about...
Here's how I make that work. You get to be an assault marine without the pilot personal bit, and your special abilities are that of the tactical marine (still chose one as normal). This is only allowed with the understanding that once you make the prereqs to take the Chaplain specialty from Rites of Battle you will do so.
The smell part might have come since I copied a part of the sheet from either you or Feliks, and I didn't realize it... my bad :)

As Cato see the door begin to move and realises what is about to happen, his hand itches to give this loyal soldier the Emperor's Mercy and he speaks out in a strong clear voice.
"Loyal Commissar, know that the Emperor walks with you even through the pain and you go now to stand by his side. Your sacrifice does not serve these foul xenos, only us Astartes your brothers in arms. For it will fuel our hatred and inspire us to even greater feats for the Emperor. You will be avenged!"

Rusted Bolt Pistol =5

Wow that was quick, was going to try and post an in between action using my Charm (which was admittedly going to be an attempt to get us an Oath and leader). Ah well, there is always next time.
