Storm of Sinners

Game Master BayouSnowman

Roger, let us then pick our destination.

@ Lutha, not at this time. You are working with a Cabal, so you are not flying solo like that. Story wise the Watch Captain is going to ask for your input because the council is locked on which to pursue, so your input will be the deciding factor. That is not always going to be the case.

Does anyone else have 3 Honorable Mentions? I know many of you are close if not yet.

Ah, well. It was a good plan at least, save one fatal flaw: it didn't work.

Does the Watch Captain have any musings on the situation that could clarify things a bit? What would the mission be if we went to the council? What of the good lady? Would we actually be able to do real damage to her organization or could she just squirm out of it since her husband has clout and she's our main benifactor?

That will all be revealed in the game thread I just wanted to give you a chance to think about it before he asks you all individually.

I'm sure I do not have it.

I updated the character to reflect the proper amount of XP.

Hello all,

I wanted to apologize for my abrupt absence these last few days. My life became a little busy with work and looking for a place to move. I had it in my head that after I had missed the 48 hour deadline to post I had been kicked from the campaign.

Again, My utmost apologies and I'll make sure to keep on track with my posting.

You wont be kicked from the campaign after 48 hours, I might kick you from a Mission at most, but there isn't a lot of people lining up to take your place or anything. The simulation might take 2 days to complete before the next official mission is up.

So with my total xp
I am pretty certain we are Rank 2?
I purchased Psy Rating (x4)
Advancement in Willpower
Blood Lance

If we aren't at Rank 2 then here are my choices
Advance in Willpower
Blood Lance

A talent called Strong Minded, not sure what are the perquisites are for it(Don't have my books with me). Could someone help me out there?

ok I went back and added it all up for you guys

using the table on pg 58 you start at 13000. I have given you all 2,250 xp(some individuals might have 50 more) Mission 1 600, Mission 2 450 Mission 3 1200 for a total of 15,250. Once you get 17,000 you will be rank 2. Which will probably be after this next mission.

Is our time with the Inquisitor being spent alone, as part of a group, or can we choose?

Probably together as the Inquisitor's time is precious, though if you need additional tutoring he might assign an acolyte to the task.

With regards to Requisition for the mission to Phyrr, 200 Req gives us about 30 each, with a few left over for team kit. For my portion, I'd like to get a Deathwatch Suspensor (25 Req), or, if one isn't available, a Motion Predictor (20 Req).

I'm going to have to step down from this one too.

Astartes Combi-Flamer w/Fire Selector and Mono Melee Attachment (24)
Astartes Combat Shield (20)

I'm putting my remaining 9 req back into the pool. Can we acquire the item that the Lord Inquisitors retinue were using? Most of the creatures we have met up until know have had some Psyker ability and it would be nice to be able to see them.

Lutha I don't think we can req a combat shield yet is requires distinguished renown.

I am thinking perhaps a power sword, 20 req.

Argh, dammit. I always get respected and distinguished confused. Oh well, soon the time will come. I guess I'll just put 29 req back into the team pool.

Also I support Arkhos for leader as well.

You could probably ask the Lord Inquisitor since you have good report with him. Roll a charm test, if you pass you can requisition a psycollum for 10req.

Once you get to Scintilla the entire Cabal's vault will be open to you with some additional items from Ordo Malleus and Hereticus as well as things usually reserved for the Ecclesiarch and Arbites.

Actually I'm also going to requisition a Pict-Recorded (5) and run it during the entirety of the mission. That should cover our bases in case we find some physical evidence we can't otherwise bring back.

Hellfire Rounds (Tactical Marine) free
Kraken Rounds 5 req
Power Axe 20 req

Give back my 5 req to the pool.

We are respected renown rating correct?

Yessir

I believe that depending on who vote for a leader
Oath of the Astartes is a good choice
if it's me
Oath of Glory

Storm Bolter 20 req
Demo Charges 10 req
Laser Dot sight upgrade 6 req

Donating 4 to the pool

Is it safe to use Demo Charges without the demolition skill?

I really do suggest that we all take the Astartes Harnesses, theya re only 4 requisition and give a +30 to climb checks. If we fail we don't fall. I think it would be important for this mission since it includes such a large, scale-able, building.

Astartes Combi-Flamer (15)
Astartes Harness (4)

I'll contribute 11 back to the group fund. Also I was thinking maybe a Multikey, but I'm not certain that this facility would have "standard Imperial locks".

I'll take a Harness for 4 points, and give back 6 to the pool

I would not say its "safe" to use explosives you are not trained for. Possibilities for mishaps exist.

I don't think we are anywhere close to 200 req yet. Lucian, I think we can afford that plasma cannon if you wanted to pick it up.

Assuming everyone takes the equipment they have listed so far we still have 90 req left.

Should we invest in any sort of debuffing gear, such as the Photon Flash Grenades?

Here is what I have so far, will roll now
Brother HallanAstartes Combi-Flamer w/Fire Selector and Mono Melee Attachment (24) 1d100 ⇒ 47

Brother ElyasI am thinking perhaps a power sword, 20 req. 1d100 ⇒ 100 The Keeper informs you that there are no more Power Swords available currently

Brother ArkhosHellfire Rounds (Tactical Marine) free
Kraken Rounds 5 req 1d100 ⇒ 34
Power Axe 20 req1d100 ⇒ 15

BRother TellemachusStorm Bolter 20 req 1d100 ⇒ 93The Keeper informs you there are no more Storm Bolters available at this time.
Demo Charges 10 req 1d100 ⇒ 69
Laser Dot sight upgrade 6 req 1d100 ⇒ 26

Brother LeonAstartes Combi-Flamer (15) 1d100 ⇒ 5
Astartes Harness (4)1d100 ⇒ 94

The Astartes Harness is a good idea, might have to climb up the side of the building if we can't otherwise get in, and for 4 Req it's pretty good.

I forgot about the Medusa-pattern plasma cannon, it'd be 30 Req though even at half price because it's master-crafted. Although it's only single shot, it's Blast 1 and Volatile and Pen 10, so it might be worth it against armoured positions. I do like the heavy bolter though, seeing as the damage output on Full Auto is pretty good, and I can Suppressive Fire with it.

I'll go with the Plasma Cannon I think, try it out.

So my official request will be

Master-crafted Medusa-pattern plasma cannon (30 Req)
Astartes Harness (4 Req)

Master-crafted Medusa-pattern plasma cannon (30 Req)
Astartes Harness (4 Req)

1d100 ⇒ 43

There is another harness available. The Medusa pattern is from Grangold bunker so no roll.

Are we allowed to change request when equipment is unavailable?

yes you can request something else.

Then I would like to try and request the following

Exceptional Chainsword 7.5 req 1d100 ⇒ 74
Exceptional Bolt Pistol 7.5 req 1d100 ⇒ 73
Astartes Harness 4 req 1d100 ⇒ 72

I hope it is all right that I rolled, if not let me know.

I would like to change the power axe for
Exceptional Power Axe for 30 req
Add an Exceptional Bolter for 7.5 req
Keep the harness and kraken rounds as is, if you want me to roll I will

Exceptional Power Axe for 30 req 1d100 ⇒ 38
Add an Exceptional Bolter for 7.5 req1d100 ⇒ 78
Its cool that you rolled Elyas saved me time. Looks like you are good to go with that.

Having looked at the missile launcher and the krak and frag missiles I wonder if we should bring one next time, they seem to be a versatile choice.

Well I can't get the laser attachment without the gun. Do we get refunded the req if we don't receive the requested item? Cause if not I literally have no inventory other than standard weaponry for this mission, which would piss me off pretty badly. The demo charges were just something I saw that was useful that I wanted to drop a couple points in.

Edit: I saw the above posts. My question is answered

Here is my official selection after the unfortunate rolls earilier.

Balefire Gun - 16 req
Astartes Harness - 4 req
Astartes Grapnel -3

Donating 7 to the pool

Balefire Gun - 16 req 1d100 ⇒ 10
Astartes Harness - 4 req 1d100 ⇒ 34
Astartes Grapnel -31d100 ⇒ 73

all of that is available.

Where is the Balefire gun? That sounds like something that maybe requires renown or something

Found it ok Rites of Battle gear basicly a flamer sure you can have that

How many towers are left and/or is there a way to avoiding them by plunging and cutting through the horde to get inside and avoid them entirely?

There is only one tower left brother lutha took one out. You could run into the building, but taking out the tower does assist Col Folken's Stormtroopers holding your cordon on the outside.

Did we bring any kind of healing supplies? After that big AoE hit the heretics did on us when we landed. Tellemachus has like 3 wounds left..

None of us have Medicae anyways. The only drugs we have are the ones in our armor. You can drop a fate point to pick up some extra health. Otherwise Col Folken may be able to provide a medicus temporarily.

I also recommend not taking point with so few wounds remaining.

Did you apply your armor and toughness reductions to it?

Pen 10 cuts right through the armor and TB 8 takes it down to a mighty 20 wounds of damage if I'm tracking it all correctly. So yeah, he'd have like 3 wounds left.
