Hi all!

Thanks for being allowed to join.

Sooo, what shall it be? I'd be interested in an Aeldari, but are not glued to it. ;-)
Jan 14, 2026 9:19 pm
I think I'd like to try a Kroot personally.
Jan 14, 2026 11:11 pm
Hi hi!

I was thinking of playing something Mechanicus, maybe a Skitarii. Gotta be something (sorta) human in the team, right? :p

Hi everyone!
Jan 15, 2026 6:32 pm
Neat ideas!
Jan 15, 2026 8:04 pm
Hi all. I'm excited to get the WH40K feeling again.
I can probably use my Ratling Sniper - PC from previous game just need to erase memorable wounds and what not, but If it is allowed this time I would rather build a space marine instead.

While I would love to hear the backstory on the Space Marine who ended up on what is basically akin to a space borne scrapyard Tier 2 is too low for a Space Marine. They don't come in until tier 3.
Jan 15, 2026 9:06 pm
My bad looked into character creation thread where rank 3 mentioned.
Will redo Ratling for proper tier
Jan 15, 2026 9:37 pm
I’ve seen mention of both tier 2 and 3. Which is it?
Jan 15, 2026 9:57 pm
Tier and Rank are two different measurements.

What about a Space Marine Scout at Tier 2, ascending to Space Marine?

I missed the scout. So yeah you can play a scout. Best option would be attached to the Astropath since the Imperium actually cares a bit about them.

Sorry about that.
Jan 16, 2026 2:55 am
I have ended up with a big, burly Kroot warrior who gets up in the enemy's face and hacks them to death with a Kroot Rifle.
Jan 16, 2026 11:29 am
In this story Ratling will fit better than scout. And I can make him fit about the same role in the team

There’s something weird about hacks to death and rifle like a sort of "does he know that thing can shoot too?" Vibe

Hello all! Interesting cast we have so far. I quickly mocked up a Death Cult Assassin in the character generator while I remain blessed with ignorance of the rules.

Could someone with more mastery of the rules give it the once-over and give suggestions?

Which Framework will we use?
Jan 18, 2026 1:11 am
Recolliger Standard Crew: A group under the Recolliger’s charter scrapping ships you find in the Gilead system.
Jan 18, 2026 1:46 am
Accidentally rejected a character instead of accepting sorry.
Jan 18, 2026 3:26 pm
Just a thought, but it might be worth shoving everything from the other campaign into a subforum for clarity?

Good plan!

Oh, we have another Death Cult Assassin? We should compare notes on the Cult. I was actually in the process of writing a bit on it.
Jan 18, 2026 6:08 pm
Here's a proposal for the cult:
The Thousandfold Vigil says:
No one knows when the Death Cult first took root aboard the Scrap Hogg. It certainly predates its rusting hull plates and current occupation. There was no founding charter or no recorded martyr. Only the persistent fact that the ship has survived places and practices that should have damned it long ago suggest the God-Emperor's hand in its continued existence. And for over a millennium, the cult has acted as the vessel’s unseen immune system. As the Scrap Hogg works the worst margins of Imperial space stripping derelicts saturated with warp residue whilst crewed with the dregs of humanity sprinkled with some Xenos it is under constant exposure of the taint of heresy. Chaos rarely arrives openly. It creeps in through altered prayers, private symbols, and subtle deviations of faith. Sometimes the Xenos influence the crew to shift their beliefs. The cult watches for these signs with practiced precision. When corruption is confirmed it is removed quietly and completely. Bodies disappear. The crew quickly stops mentioning the names of those taken.

The ship's Xenos are tolerated by the cult out of necessity, not trust. The cult allows their presence so long as it remains strictly transactional. Any move on part of the crew toward xenos worship or ideological coexistence is met with swift culling. Betrayal is not feared... it is expected and prepared for. The cult does not challenge the captain’s authority or interfere with profit or navigation. It intervenes only when a line is crossed that others cannot see. Every captain learns the same truth eventually: they command the ship, but the cult is a power onto itself deeply interwoven in the bones of the ship. At times, the cult offers its services to bring the God-Emperor's benediction to the hulls that fall prey to the Scrap Hog. When it does its cultist sneak on board and silently remove anything that offends the God-Emperor of Mankind.

They call themselves the Thousandfold Vigil. The crew calls them the Quiet Ones.

I like the cult.

I’ll give it a day before I update
Jan 19, 2026 10:02 pm
Excellent. Is the character I made in the generator up to spec? Then I'll get started.
Jan 19, 2026 10:07 pm
Oh, and the Abominable Intelligence made this portrait for our captain!

I'm new to the system so I'd like to see someone else go first in the first round of combat so I can see how it's done. :)
Jan 24, 2026 3:21 pm
While Ol' Toothy's set off, I want to see the answers to GreyWord's questions before I resolve his attack.
Jan 24, 2026 10:32 pm
I’m going to update using the on the fly battle map
Jan 24, 2026 11:19 pm
Did anyone bring zhe heavy flamer? Tell me someone brought zhe heavy flamer..
Jan 24, 2026 11:26 pm

While waiting for opportunity to have my turn could someone double check me cause I'm rusted with rules.
I believe that:
1. I can do Multi-Attack and use Attack Option Aim , i.e. when I roll to hit each target in turn I apply the bonus of Aim to each roll
2. Penalty of Multi-Attack (+2DN per extra target) do not affect DN of my Simple Action

Had a quick look at my rulebook, I believe that's all correct

That is accurate

Just waiting for our first attack action now.

From the weather outside I clearly underestimated the albino brain chiggers…
Jan 26, 2026 7:14 pm
I guess I should have Razick run in and help hold the line, unless we all agree that Orks are expendable.
Jan 29, 2026 2:55 pm
just to double check @Ysolde - we are waiting for GM to act on behalf of one more threat, right?
Jan 29, 2026 5:39 pm
I'm on it now.

I'm just going to give you the Target to hit and damage total and next time everyone will go as soon as possible.

Speed things up a bit at a slight disadvantage for the enemies.
Jan 31, 2026 12:33 am
I’m unclear if I can go yet. Are we waiting for GM post first?
Jan 31, 2026 3:38 am
No, everyone who hasn't attacked yet is able to now.
Jan 31, 2026 12:36 pm
Ok, I tried my first round. Please let me know if I did it right or wrong.
Jan 31, 2026 3:42 pm
How big is our Glory pool at the moment?
Feb 4, 2026 3:53 pm
Glory Pool = 2
Ruin = 8

With the party split I can focus more on each character to better kill them support their efforts.
Feb 5, 2026 1:37 pm
@everyone

Apologies for not updating the map last night. I'll get to that soon.

Please call out and let me know which area you are in if you haven't already posted in one!

Thanks!

At the moment, we are 7 players with 8 votes in the ballot. 5 have voted for lift, which is too much.

The Ratling and the the Aeldari are at the moment the sole people not in the lift. Who was the third voter for not going into it?

Guys, please, commit yourself and do it transparent. ;-)
Feb 5, 2026 7:36 pm
I voted late, so I don't mind being shuffled along, but at the time I voted there was an even 3/3 split so I put mine for "in".
Feb 7, 2026 2:14 pm
Ok, I'm out of this just now.

Could be anyone, ok, preferably Ysolde, explain who is where or with whom and what are the options for those not in the lift?

To me, there's not enough info to fuel my theatre of mind. I had to dump two assumptions already and now seeing no land to attach to, I'm sorry.
Feb 8, 2026 1:22 am
I am on it now
Feb 8, 2026 3:23 pm
Thanks for the maps, I'll wait for the answer to Grey's questions. Until then I looked over the characteres, I see:

Silaster: Body Glove
Kaelith: Corsair armour
Quickfinger: Flank Armor
Razick: Kroot armour
Ol'Toothy: Ripped Clothes
Rho-Halax: Skitarii Auto-Cuirass
Martyria: ?

So, if I wanted to use vaccum-ways, I'd have to leave the other two behind. Not in my preference. ;-)
Feb 8, 2026 4:35 pm
By the way, another confusion from me. We are inside a Mega Voidship, which is enormously large structure. There was atmosphere good enough to breath in the docks. we are moving somewhere inside that huge structure and are about to break up one of the sealed doors
- why would we believe there is no air on the other side of the doors? That's just a sealed door to stairs. We are not trying to get on the outside of the Mega Voidship, are we?
- if there sufficient air pressure inside then opening a door to vacuum will cause the obvious - air will be be blown out and we will be blow out - so far so good, but we will not be physically able to get back into the area of air pressure, because of we break another doors from the outside - air will be flowing out. Do we have basic laws of physics broken in WH40K?

P.S. Is too too much too dumb questions ? Let me know if it is and I shall step out of the game and let those who understand 40K better to continue.
Feb 8, 2026 7:16 pm
It’s only the stairwell that was reported as being open to vacuum. Sadly it doesn’t appear to be anywhere near the actual lift.
Mar 17, 2026 10:40 pm
I’m signing off until Sunday – I’ll be attending a LARP and won’t have much time for digital communication.
Apr 6, 2026 6:44 pm
Apologies, I have had some life difficulties and needed to take a second job. I will need to drop this and a few other games.

Hopefully things get better in the future
