I for sure would have loved fury like lighning! ;) But a free hatred I think is not too bad.

PA: 1d10 ⇒ 2 Same as Vorenthar, if we do get the +-1 I would go down to the command bonus, but otherwise I'm sure I can make it work.
Sorry I had disappeared a bit, I will get a proper post up tomorrow. My wedding is now only 17 days away so I am likely to be a little Spartan on the posting at times until then, so please bot if needed.

Well I would go with +1 for Thy Strength be legend. But could work with a +1 for Ini if not possible as well.

@Cato: Well then my congratulations! If you/your friends are looking for an nerd-activity for the stag party: I can only recommend a long visit to a LaserTag Arena/Paintball Area. We did that with a good friend .... it was awesome ;-)


Iron Hands

1d10 ⇒ 9

Bring Death from afar, but fitting for an iron hand I suppose.

I'm sorry, mate... *taps his shoulder* :P


Wolf scouts probably do start with scout armor, but in this instance will be granted a suit of power armor to be uniform per the Archon's instructions as the foul Xenos is ignorant in the way of the Astartes.

The Bloodsmith Domos visits each of you and helps you into your new armor.

Brother Vorenthar 1d8 ⇒ 5
Brother Tiamat 1d8 ⇒ 7
Brother Knutr 1d8 ⇒ 4
Brother Feliks 1d8 ⇒ 8
Brother Cato 1d8 ⇒ 1
Brother Vaylund1d8 ⇒ 4 1d3 ⇒ 1Brother Vaylund is still connected to a Psydisruptor to reign in his power and limit the possibility of she who thursts from crashing the party

Brother Vorenthar is given his armor back, but the chest plate is replaced with that of Mark V (Heresy) Armor. It only has 9 armor on the body, but gives him +10 fellowship with other Space Marines. The Inquisition will find this armor disturbing and will grant him -10 with members of the Inquisition.

Brother Tiamat Brother Tiamats armor is completely Mark VII, but Domos has enhanced his Armor with a Servo Arm befitting a Tech-Marine. The servo arm is master-crafted, but uses a heavy amount of power. Any turn in which the servo arm was used you are reduced to only half your normal movement.

Brother Knutr is given a helmet of Mark IV (Maximus) armor, granting him +15 fellowship to Space Marines, but only providing 7 armor to the head.

Brother Feliks is given a chest plate of Mark VIII armor that provides extra head protection with a high gorget. On a roll of 8,9 or 10 on a d10 when the head is hit, the body is hit instead. Brother Feliks is granted +5 to command tests

Brother Cato to everyone's awe and amazement, Brother Cato is given a helmet of Mark 1 armor. This relic of the ancient past grants +30 fellowship with Space Marines, and the Ecclesiarchy, but only gives 4 Armor to the head.

Brother Vaylund is given a shoulder pad of Mark IV (Heresy) armor that has a battle scar. It is drenched by the blood of the enemy that will not wash off. The stains and scratches give an uneasy feeling to those that see it. Fear (1) or increase fear by 1 if already have the trait


Game is up, the intro at least.

I found the answer: In the Deathwatch, at least, wolf scouts are considered to have both scout and power armor. The wolf scout can choose which he wants to use for each mission. It is most likely that he would have been taken in his scout armor, though. So that makes sense.

That is awesome! Since it is likely I will not have my helmet on most of the time, it is good to have the gorget. It is funny that he has a bonus to command though.

Sweet rolls, Gathrix :-)
Any answer to the +-1 thing to our rolls?

Anyway: Let's do this!

Oh yeah, sorry. As the book allows I think its +1 -1 only I forget. No + or minus to the rolls I made though for the older power armors sorry.

In that case of +1 / -1 is it okay if I take the following armor then over the None shall escape the Emperor’s Wrath

I would like to take this one then

Cower Not Before the Enemy:
This suit of armour has been obsessively maintained with marks of pride, bears pristine heraldic depictions, and is bedecked with sashes, helmet crests, and Banner Displays. The wearer carries himself tall, often heedless of cover or stealth. The armour seemingly sabotages any attempts at subtlety, and imposes a further –20 to all Silent Move and Concealment Tests (in addition to those imposed on standard power armour), while it whirs, vents, or clanks at precisely the wrong moment. However, it also grants a +10 bonus to Command Tests, due to the overwhelming force of authority and confidence the bearer projects.

Short Question: We DID heal in between those matches despite the torment, didn't we?

Posted xp earlier, but Paizo ate it.

Punish the weak 1000 xp
WS Simple 200xp

Of course, the homunculi cant have his victims die on him...

Ok so here are all my catch up bits in one post!
Thanks for the congrats and commiserations, I hav already had my stag and it involved a brewery, a cider farm, drinking out of a drinking horn whilst wearing a viking helmet, sword and shield and having to shout "By the power of Greyskull, I have the power" every time I took a drink!

Feliks was a great shout on the MVP, I think I would have picked him too.

XP spend=
Command 300 (Sanguinary priest list)
WS Simple 200
Furious assault 600 (BA list)
250 spare

Wow, Mark 1, love it. So I assume that is also the 0 bonus to autosenses, isn't sealed as well. Does that include the +15 bonus to cohesion damage tests for the leader? or is that only if you have a full set?

After what I said earlier, I will actually stick with None shall escape the Emperor’s Wrath +5 BS -10 to dodge in melee, for a bit of variety, wouldn't want to copy Vorenthar after all, plus I just got a Mk 1 helmet!

Man, this helmet is more than 20,000 years old!

Not to forget that incredibly awesome plume on the helmets top :-)


Male Blood Angel Sanguinary Priest Rank 1, Wounds 23/23, Fate 5/5

I was thinking it had a bit of a Bebop from TMNT look, bit who doesn't love a plume!


Game update will be in a few hours, NLT 0500 MST.

going to cry in a corner that I roll crap on search rolls and stuck with a las pistol.. damn those dark eldar! :P


Black Templar Assault Marine (1) | Wounds: 23/23 | Armor rating: 6 | Fate: 5/5 | Renown: 3 | Active Conditions: None.

Seeing Vorenthar will be leading the grp at this moment, current stats are:

Cohesion: 6/6
Squad Mode: None
As for the Oath, seeing the speech I gave, I am thinking either Oath of the Astartes would work well or else Oath to the Emperor.

Let me know what people think about the oath


Iron Hands

Oath of Astartes the seems fitting

You can search during your turns as a half action, but Hellions are not heavily armored so a Las Pistol isn't too bad actually.


Space Wolf Sky Claw Rank 1 | Wounds: 23/23 | Fate: 4/5 | Active Conditions: None.

As much as I would like Regroup as an available manoeuvre, I think our cohesion is not that great by now, so Oath of the Astartes would benefit us more.

We have a lot of melee power ... but beside of my lasconnen with few shots and a torchlight (laspistol) no range capabilities, am I right?
This can get a real problem if those cowards remain at a distance, refusing to a proper melee with us....


Iron Hands

Everyone saw Vaylund hurl a wave of fire I'm round 1, but limited range like flame thrower


Black Templar Assault Marine (1) | Wounds: 23/23 | Armor rating: 6 | Fate: 5/5 | Renown: 3 | Active Conditions: None.

Sorry for the short post, prepping last few things for PaizoCon UK and leaving town tomorrow. Please bot me this weekend, will pickup again on Monday!


No update yet, will post it soon. Have been away from my books to give a proper post. Hopefully late tonight


Update up sorry for delay. I could have sworn someone asked me about the 40k tournament, but I cant find the post. It went ok, I got like 8th out of 12. It was for combat patrol (400 points) so I made a Hawk Lord Land Speeder list for fluff reasons. In hind sight I should not have played a few rounds very aggressive on certain rounds, but it was an achievement to build and paint 400 points with the conversions I did in a month.

Where in that does it say "I am targeting the Dark Eldar Leader?"

I am sorry I did not use the word "leader" in that post. There was, however, a chain of IC posts about targets that led to my understanding that I was shooting at the Hellion leader.

Tiamat clearly notices the exchange of the Xenos, and interprets it correctly.
He let his autosenses mark the Xeno Leader and sends a quick message and targeting information over the secure vox.
+++ Focus their Leader. Designated Target: Prime +++

I will hold fire for now, waiting on the others. If they are able to break them, I will save ammo for the heavier enemies yet to come... otherwise I will put up another aimed shot at their leader.

I should have used the correct word, but I wanted to let you know that my question was not off the wall or without any foundation.

I was not accusing you of anything. I did not phrase my question with hostility. I simply asked for clarification because you and I obviously had a different interpretation of events. I am not sure why that needed the bolded, sarcastic response from you.


bold to differentiate between the responses. Not sarcastic, it was a sincere question. You started out your paragraph with Vile Xenos. There was no reference to Brother Tiamat. The leader is a bit harder to hit.


Male I am a meat Popsicle

No worries. Just trying to figure out what happened. I will make sure to identify my target in the same post as the roll in the future.

Sorry for the mis-read on your message-tone. PbP is hard to read tone. I will try not to assume mood.


Iron Hands

So I'm assuming b/c of my lower initiative, that the Eldar are already engaged with us and I can't use my flame attack while they are incoming as planned. Now that they're upon us are any within melee range of me?

Will post later tonight, been a bit busy but post will go up when I am back


Everytime I think ill have time to post some knuckle head does something that makes me write up a long report. I have an increase in personal where I work so this game might be on hiatus. I wish Fantasy Flight had a system like this where I could easily look up rolls copy and past ect, but since I have to rely on looking up books posts take considerable amount of time. I enjoy it when I have the time, but lately-Blah. So apologies, game will be on as soon as possible.


I tend to copy and paste important rolls into my profile for easy access, but that only works if you've got a digital copy. Though if you bought the books, then they should include a digital copy for download. Otherwise, just find it online. Not hard. Maybe that could help you some.

Yeah the support of FFF is ... Enhanceable. I would love something like the pathfinder reference homepage. I would have bought the books nevertheless, because they are really beautiful, but as a quick reference ... Even as PDF (they are to big and to confusing) it is hard to find things fast. Possible advise: Use some online-document thing like OneNote, googledocs, Everest, etc to store pre-formated rolls and quick lookup's for things needed often. But it is often hard to determine what is needed beforehand, I know that^^

It is sad that it slowed down a bit, but on the other side it gives me more time to learn for the coming exams ... so maybe it does make me happy, but maybe its a good thing if it slows down for some time ... At least for my grades?^^

Welcome Back!


Game is back up.

Just need to make sure I don't confuse the game and throw too high a stuff at you or make the tests too difficult. Level 1 and level 8 is a big difference. Hopefully I won't make too many mistakes. :)


Hey guys, give me a few days, just got a lot of cooking stuff this week, big testing tomorrow night for a new menu I'm developing. I'll hopefully update within 48 hours. Apologies for the delay.
