To Recover the Past... [OW/DW] OOC Thread

[Fenrykus]

Cool, thanks for the info guys. I think I'm going to with a Techmarine. However, I'm also probably going to take the Gene-Seed Anomaly deed, giving me Medicae as a trained skill.
 
I'm pretty much set, I just need to finish spending my experience, and then do my Requisition. Just to make sure I didn't miss anything in one of the threads, it's 1500 exp, 0 Renown, and 60 Requisition, correct? I asked Karrak earlier in a PM, but I don't want to keep bugging him.
 
Edit: Oh, and are we just posting/updating characters here/in the planning thread, or are we using the Only War character sheets? If we're using the sheets, could someone tell me how to share it (and would it still be editable after I share it)? I apologize, I'm still a little new to things like Google Drive and Dropbox, but I'm slowly learning.
 

[Black Cohort]

I might be a librarian but I have basically all the tech aptitudes and count as having mechanicus implants.

[reckoning]

Slight clarification from my previous post - We're missing our apothecary/techmarine hybrid and our tactical.

[Fenrykus]

Heh, well the latter is what I was going to make if there was no real preference, and the former is what I came up with initially.

[reckoning]

I have no preference but am not sure how the others feel.

 

Any word from karack lately?

[Slips]

If we have a Tech-Brarian and a Tech-Pothecary, I'd be pretty cool with it TBH especially one that can punch as hard and soak as much as yours looks like he's going to be able to. Too, with the current focus of this Campaign being recovering sweet Tech, having more technologically adept party members can only be a good thing.

 

For REQ, I'd at least try to get a Cameleoline since we're trying to be sneaky and avoid Tyranids/Eldar/Local Fauna. Otherwise, you're free to take whatever you want.

[Fenrykus]

Well, being a Techmarine and being stealthy are almost mutually exclusive. But I managed to get a cameleoline tarp and a stummer, in addition to my tech gear and an augur array. This is, however, contingent upon an affirmative answer from Karak regarding a question about the Omnissiah's Calling deed.

[Fenrykus]

So should I just post my full character here? I haven't seen any links, just a bunch of characters posted in (I think) the planning thread.

[Slips]

Yeah posting him here is fine.

Nice.

[Slips]

Are we all...like...blind? only two of us succeeded with 1 DoS each LOL

 

Also, Mikael, a quick rundown of where we're at:

 

• Mission is to recover Heresy Era Tech
• Planet is Possibly infested by Tyranids and Eldar are also in the mix too.
• We met some nasty plants but we dealt with them fine enough.
• Now in a Cave system trying to head towards what possibly might be one of the Tech Caches.
• Apparently half of us are blind despite our augments and gear (Damn you RNGesus.)

[reckoning]

Interested to see how karack introduces are new team member.

[Slips]

Well, seeing as we're apparently partially blind...

[Black Cohort]

he was probably with us the whole time.

[reckoning]

Lurking in the shadows?

[Fenrykus]

I must apologize for my lack of recent activity; my best friend was in a car accident Friday night (no serious injury, and thankfully he didn't have either of his kids with him), and I've been helping him out the past few days.

[reckoning]

No need to apologize, real life comes first.

[Boudan]

Happy Thanksgiving, to those who celebrate it!

[Black Cohort]

Indeed happy thanksgiving to those who celebrate it a month late.

[reckoning]

Happy Thanksgiving guys

Is there any advantage for those that passed the test?

[Black Cohort]

Irad Farsight sees no reason to refill his perception.

[Karack Blackstone]

The area seems to have some children in it; clearly, not human ones at that.

 

Irad Farsight sees no reason to refill his perception.

 

K, all noted.

[reckoning]

Apologies for it seems Im the one holding our game up.

 

Ive been struggling with how to respond best to the current situation. Apparently the blackshield ha spotted children, but what species? Plant?
