Black Crusade Reboot Discussion Thread!

[Solomon]

Well @WritesNaughtyStories I have a feeling that those devoted to Slaanesh would still be very interested in the many possible applications of biomancy and other magics of change. After all experimenting with new sensations is fun.

Absolutely, and, ever the pragmatists, the VIII are always looking for weapons - fear is just one of many. Ruva will acquire every scrap of arcane knowledge she can.

Actually on the question of the warp. Would it be alright with everyone if my marine while on his bike could teleport short distance? I understand that teleportation is a very strange complex thing in the universe but I would be alright if it was in a limited use lest he be thrown back to the warp and it's limited to his bike.

Also I do intend to roll Everytime i use plasma. Something funny about him growing angry because another plasma pistol is about to explode.

[Eros Angel]

I'm fine with that

[WritesNaughtyStories]

Is everybody in this drop pod who's getting in?

Not sure what you mean by that. Can you rephrase?

[Solomon]

I think as soon as Jenny confirms yes.

[Guroda]

I think so?

[WritesNaughtyStories]

 @JennyDK we are getting ready to launch an assault shuttle called a drop pod on a Blood Angels' supply depot. Ruva asked Patricia to accompany the Legionnaires on the raid. I'm trying to make sure I don't leave anyone behind who wanted to go. If Patricia is coming, have her get on the Drop Pod and buckle up. We're gonna go kill some pretty boys.

Awesome. Very simple and straight forward. Looking forward to it

[Eros Angel]

Also I want to tell everyone that you have a lot more narrative freedom here than in a typical game as this is a wider cooperative tale. Feel free to add your own details and tales, I have an overarching story I want to tell but I'll incorporate anything that happens on the ground into it.

Regarding combat and the like, feel free to kill any unnamed nps at will and any named NPCs with my permission. Each Named NPCs has their own story but I fine with it being cut off usually. For instance the named Blood Angel's Sergeant has a story and background and potential future but I give my permission for you to kill him if you please.

Regarding potential battle between PC characters you can only kill them if you get permission and work it out with the owning PCs player first.

Awsome. Because something I was curious to suggest was while we do have encounters you create, is it possible to put in our own antagonist as well through out the game? For example I have an ultramarine that I think would be fun or an Ork that could get pulled into the middle of the crusade.

[JennyDK]

LOL, ultramarines XD damn boy scouts

I like the overall freedom this gives and makes us able to create our own stories I feel.

Yes feel free to add your own villains, plots, and tales!

@Eros Angel Patricia will most likely be fully following her own goals mostly. Will this be an issue for you at all?

Nope feel free!

[JennyDK]

Lovely. Of course, I will try and do my best to also aid the group and not just go fully on my own tangent.

[Eros Angel]

Just as a note while you can definitely slaughter guardsmen and most other enemies willy nilly even at your level Astartes should take more effort to bring down than chaff, just for the rule of cool's sake in addition to 'realism'.  Instant killing one marine? Cool, but a group should take some effort. You may single handedly fight a squad and win, but it should be quite a doing yeah?

[Dozle The Crusader]

im doing a fight scean 

[Eros Angel]

It's all good Dozle you do it well waiting for me to go with the back and forth, and the marines you killed earlier were realistc, they were in close range to an assault cannon and heavy flamer, you manic

[Dozle The Crusader]

i bring the party and the fire where ever i go ^^

[Eros Angel]

Psi powers however really can fuck up whole squads of Astartes if you're a high function user and you don't have to stick to powers from Black crusade, feel free to make up your own shit, just remember that this is balanced by how dangerous the warp is and high end powers should always feel risky.

[JennyDK]

Holy shit. Those are lots of posts being made while I was asleep. I will fully admit I am skipping every part where I am not involved. Not because I don't want to follow things, but because it is simply overwhelming and confusing me a ton.

[JennyDK]

I did find this and I will try and give it a look.

[Guroda]

That video is helpful and yeah wow I have stuff to check up on
