previous threads.

As always, it will take me some time to prepare.

Please tell me this is an actual game now.

>>17618118
What do you mean? Yes, it is an actual game.

>>17618138
We must deploy an expedition to Mount Fraen immediately!
Thank the Dinotian Emperor for his assistance, and suggest he invest in a tablecloth.

I suggest we deploy a thunderhawk loaded with marines to scout the area, with at least two techmarines and a chaplain.

>>17618194
I am somewhat hesitant to ask for our techmarines assistance. While their expertise will no doubt be valuable, their loyalties are divided...

Sountrack needed in order to enjoy this:

and anything else you find to be epic(i will add them to the list)

Listening is mandatory. Failure is punished by death, Not having earphones is not an excuse.

New player reportan in.

>>17618587
Great to see you brother
>>17618602
Rising Sons welcome you among your brothers, initiate.

Should we build a training outpost (mountain warfare) on the spot of the sky chariot crash? It would give us an excuse to look.

Deployment orders:
- 1 thunderhawk with 15 marines and 5 techmarines and a Rhino for recovery.

>>17618653
>>17618587
>>17618194
Chaplain, 15 marines and 5 techmarines leave on thunderhawk to Mount Fraen... They will be there in an two hours, however Rhino will get there in a day.

Is it wise to risk so many Techmarines?

>>17618678
A normal thunderhawk can carry 30 marines

But a special type can carry 2 Rhinos... and i dont know how many marines.

If the Rhino isnt on the thunderhawk then there isnt much use for it.

Cancel the order for the rhino.

>>17618691
I dont consider it a risk. Further support will be moved down by drop pod if they get into any trouble.

>>17618678
“Your people posses a great religious strength, we shall leave a recruitment and initiate training outpost here. Through them, you shall be able to send messages to us."

>>17618678
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IvKppMvFZbU&feature=related

I don’t want to steal all the decision making from the others, so for now, have one techmarine oversee construction of a initiate training outpost in a suitable location on the mountain side. A sky arena would be fine. Those who see themselves as worthy of becoming a marine would have to climb up the mountain alone or in teams and then engage in ritual combat in the arena to determine who is best. The construction should conceal the tunnelling efforts.

Obviously, avalanches, rockslides and tunnel collapse have to be assessed by a techmarine. The other marines are to serve as scouts for debris left from the craft.

>>17618740

>>17618810
No

>>17618806
By building training facility on this world, you add it to your realm.

Proper Sky Arena will cost 15W (you have 30)

>>17618820
do you confirm it?
>>17618819
on this i will need at least a few named players decision

>>17618820
Indeed, bring it into the imperial fold.

>>17618810
We will retrieve their food.
(Where is this agri-world on the map?)

>>17618806
It is in another Sub-Sector. When your ships will arrive, Sirius promises to give you 200W to pay for the food and coordinates.

>>17618916
Cant we just give them food from Hiedrun and Nordgrim?

>>17618971
Ah, Good morning (or is it afternoon? It's morning here so Im just getting going) sorry I'm later, just got into work. Let me catch up on the thread and I'll be ready.

>>17619030
Neither of these planets has sufficient surplus to feed Tyr until it stands up on it's feet. Heidrun is devastated from war and alwats had twice smaller population than Tyr and Nordgrim has just over 200 million medieval population that cares only about how to live through next winter.

depends on what do you mean by outpost. Just asking the emperor to give you few buildings or even a stone castle is no big deal, but fortifications, AA or orbital defences cost a lot. Explain me what you want and i will tell you the cost :)

>>17619107
Ave; brother. Join us when ready

>>17619125
Hold on to the Warbikes STC, consider trading/selling the increesed production STC to Oynx in exchange for big favors/wealth.

>>17618810
We should consider doing something about Tyr before too long. Is there anyone closer who might be able to help them?

>>17619204

We should not trade anything with Onyx. They are implicated in the dissapearance of the 3rd company. Added to the fact they have been employed by us to search for the 3rd company. This doesnt bode well.

We should look to creating a marine manufactorum when we establish our monastery. To replace the over-dependence on Onyx and anyone ellse.

>>17619125
>>17619107
I think it is best we have our techmarines continue to study the STC and the crash site in secret untill we can decide how to use them at a later date. When we can build a manufactorum.

But what to do about the people of Nordgrim? I say we invest some wealth in modernising them.

>>17619204

I think it would be in our best interest to hold onto both modules. We may reap a large profit on selling them, but the long term benefit of our chapters independence of outside aid will out-weigh any price. Especially considering Onynx's potential untrustworthiness...

As to Tyr, 200W is too huge a bounty to pass up, especially in helping other Imperials. Have our last two free escorts begin a course Stygia to retrieve aid.

Also, how much would it cost to establish an autonomous AA defense system around the planet?

>>17619263
200W is not YOUR reward, but money that should be used to buy food, to clarify it.

Equilibrium and Momentum depart for Tyr, commanded by Cessarius. He requests 30 marines, 2 techmarines and 2 apothecaries, just to be safe. Do you agree?

AA(landing shuttles and planes) is not the same as AO(ships). Establishing anti-invasion planet-wide rocket turrets on most of the mountains would cost about 500W. However into this package would also come in bunkers, millions of miles of razor wire, booby traps in landing-suitable zones, etc. Anti-Orbital guns would cost even more, and need a friendly forge world, as you will need to import engineers and maintainance personnel. One of the cheaper ways to provide protection against pirates would be orbital defence station(100W)

>>17619351
Welp. Looks like we'll just have to leave a relay station (and some rudimentary training to use it) to contact us, and hope for the best.

>>17619396
Any rituals to perform before activating emergency beacon? If you want to play gods in the mind of these people, this is a place to start.

do you agree with Cessarius' request?

also,
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eTwg5KAjOjI

>>17619351
Also, Cessarius may take the requested personnel. May the Lord guide him.

>>17619415
Suggested Deployment:
- Equilibrium and momentum are to join task force alpha and then go onto this new sector.
- The ‘eternity’ is to continue repairs and act as task force shield
- Task force lantern is close enough to aid task force shield
- 1 techmarine and attendant staff is to stay and continue excavating the crash site on nordgrim. They are to lodge with the training outpost nearby.

We should move all the trained initiates to task force alpha before we move on to the agri-world. We should see about financing them into second generation marines.

Also, move the requested personnel to cessarius.

>>17619462
I second this plan of action.

>>17619420

>>17619462
>>17619488
missed your post, retconn:

you WITH Cessarius leave for Stygia

>>17619488
"Paitence is a virtue, Brother Mistius. We could conquer this world without effort with but the might of our fists. But there is great potential in these people. We should have control over them before we put them to the sword."

>>17619415
Tell them to draw in ink, the Imperial Aquila (give them a depiction of it if they are not familiar with it), and teach them to then recite the Imperial Creed (in High Gothic) while burning a sacred oil which we will give them (If we have any on us, otherwise just mechanical lubricant). Then have them preform the rituals to use the machine. Simple enough, but still mysterious, and hopefully reinforce whatever hold the Imperial cult and culture holds.

>>17619516
Mistius bows his head and agrees, but you know that for every space marine it is hard to swallow arrogance and turn the other cheek.

Task Force Alpha leaves Nordgrim for Stygia...
How will you proceed between Sub-Sectors?
>Speed(easier to ambush)
>Caution(slow)
>Exploration(slow, easier to ambush)

>>17619526
Your idea soon takes root and even before you leave Emperor funds a temple to be built for this 'God-Caller' machine

Late to the party, let me catch up...

>>17619590
We should take caution. We are still carrying the STC, right? Maybe we should leave it hidden on Eternity...

>>17619662
good to see you. I guess 4 days in a row are a little too much for most people, so quest is quite slow today, but maybe in a few hours we'll get more players. for now I am taking a break to eat dinner, but you are always welcome to amaze me with your insane projects/ideas for the future of Rising Sons.

>>17619590
Caution. Just how big of a difference will this make though?

>>17619729
I also think it being saturday might have something to do with it. Hell, if I didn't have work right now, I'd still be in bed! :D

>>17619716
It is to be researched with the techpriests, which must stay with us aboard the flagship. It is safest there.

>>17619590
Fastest rout. There isnt really time for exploration.

>>17619792
I don't think fast would be too great of an idea. There are only so many times we can bluff our way out of an ambush.

Also, Skargan, do we have to use all 200w to buy food? Are they paying us more upon delivery? If so I think we should skimp out and only buy 150w worth of food, saving 50w for ourselves.

OP, can we can post-Konorr stats on Tyr? Lets see if the son has changed anything for the better.

>>17619840
Seems a bit...stingy. If they find out it could negate any favor we gain.

>>17619840
I don't agree with keeping any of the wealth for ourselvs. I'd rather have the citizens of tyr in debt to us, to be mroe use to us later, than to try and weasle extra profit. What are we? Rogue Traders?

>>17619840

Stealing money is a terrible idea. I agree with:
>>17619981

>>17619981
We should at least keep 10w. Think of it as a service charge, our brothers need it more than Tyr.

I'll drop my idea of skimming if the post-Konnor stats of Tyr impress. We should also ask for a recruitment center + arena to be built at Tyr's expense.

>>17620059
Look, we could always take it from them in blood if we *really* wanted to do that. I say no to the skimming of wealth.

>>17620101
Alright, I'll drop it.

I still think we should also ask for a recruitment center + arena to be built at Tyr's expense as a partial payment.

>>17620152
I'm not wholely opposed to that, but let's get them in the palm of our power gauntlets first. :D

>>17620169
>>17620152

Recruite from people who will now dislike us for extorting them? NOT AT ALL.

We will earn their respect by delivering the food. And if they act dishonerably, then they will have to look after themselves.

>>17620187
We don't have to recruit them. I didn't say anything about having the buildings placed on Tyr only that they would come at the expense of Tyr.

>>17620169
>>17620152

Also, i dont want to recruit from Tyr. Especially as we have initiates from salvation which may be exact justified revenge and act as rivals.

We should only recruit from worlds that have been proven worthy.
Salvation had to resist chaos, survive drugs and fight tyr guardsmen.
Nordgrim naturally produces good fighters and witch hunters as it is feudal. In addition, they have to climb a mountain to get to the training arena.

Only humans that are loyal to the emperor and come from something like a deathworld are suitable enough.

>>17619840
you are not required to buy food at all, if you want to, you can just take the money and tell Tyr to go fuck themselves.
>>17619931
Regime is now a little more stable and a little more humanistic. However father still has influence on his son and Sirius is only the lesser of two evils. However he, just like his father, is master at playing the limited independence from Imperium tune to motivate people and then oppress them to get the thoughts of true separatism from their heads. Current factional loyalties are 80 Imperial, 15 Sep, 5?

Regarding ? - you can know ALL factions and true intelligence in the planet only when you have spies/diplomats operating there

>>17620257
We arnt the spying sort. If the other guys were here i think they would say the same. We will let our allies do that for us.

Lets move on to Stygia. Fastest rout.

>>17620257
Aye. Let's head out with all speed.

>>17620359
First we should find out the difference in time between fast and caution. I don't think it is wise to put us at risk of ambush if the time isn't that much better.

>>17620410
Seconded.

You proceed through inter-sector space with great caution, always keeping battle formation ready and guns pointed at the darkness.

Somewhere in the middle of your road your cogitators report, that at least 3 xeno ships were spotted nearby, but they only came close enough for a scan and when they saw that you are no easy prey and probably with nothing to loot, they ran off.
[Roll d100 to determine your scan results.
40 or less is needed, each 10 grades reveal another detail.]

When you finally reached Stygia, local General Secretary comes to meet you himself and starts bargaining for the food... It seems they also had bad harvest, and food prices have risen.

How will you bargain?
>Just pay what they ask(225W)
>Pay what you were given(200W) for 80% food
>Intimidate them into decreasing their price by (?)
>Try to persuade them into decreasing their price by (?)

you can roll d100 or roleplay.

>>17620403
>>17620359
sorry guys, i didn't notice your posts.

Difference between them is that:
speed - easy target for pirates(if there are any), but quick
caution - (slower, but more chances to drive them off)
exploration - gathering mineral-rich asteroids makes Wealth, and you might find new planets

rolled 40 = 40

Use our reputation as Space Marines to try and nigoitiate them down on price. If we can get even 90% for the 200W, I'll call it a success.

>>17620445
I would pay what they ask for. Then later have Tyr re-reimburse us or else, be in our debt.

Do the job to the best of our ability.

rolled 18, 46 = 64

>>17620445
Rolling for scan results.

Let's try to persuade them into giving us the food we want for the 200w.
"Friend, part of this food is for guard regiments and marines resting on Heidrun. We are also using it to feed the famine stricken people of Tyr. The situation is dire and we need all of the food we can get. Would you leave the Emperors finest to starve at a time like this?"

>>17620514
Ignore the second roll, I'm still sleepy.

Supporting this.
>>17620494

>>17618593
ugh... heresy 9% That's getting pretty high. I hope that's not indicative of Chaos cults

>>17620625
I think that jump was only because of the delerium bombing. Because not wanting one of your worlds to be drug addled and corrupt is apparently heretical.

>>17620674
For any of our initiates to be heretics they would have had to choose to leave chaos and flee to salvation on Hiedrun. It is very unlikely we would have any infiltrators.

Anyway, arnt the chaplains supposed to be reducing this? 1 chaplain per company should be enough…

When we regroup with the 3rd we will promote a promising battle brother to chaplain.

>>17620742
I'm gonna take a break. I'll see you guys in ops next session. Perhapse tomorrow or monday.

>>17620742
I agree, it's unlikely. Let's get our chaplains working on it, though.

Gosh you guys start early.


>>17620476

>>17620445
Try for %90 of expected and pay the difference.

>>17621211
For got my tip

BACK FROM THE DEAD

>>17621401
I thought you had been KILL BY DAEMONS. There seems to be a little confusion on what the heresy stat represents. Is it just a general measure of how far from the "space marine ideal" we are, or is it a measure of actual corruption in our chapter?

Negotiate to 90% food

>>17620514
>>17620494
>>17620505

You managed to identify those pirates as Dark Eldar raiders, but nothing more.

After your plea Stygian communists have two offers for you:
a)205W for full amount of food - they are fine with you being in debt if you want so
b)200W for full amount of food - but they want 1 space marine to become permanent personal bodyguard for the General Secretary(this would also mean personal relations with Stygia)

>>17621497
Let's go with option A, we have too much on our plate in our assigned sector.

>>17621576
Agreed

>>17621576
And using one of the adpeptus astartes as a mere bodyguard? On an agri-world? That is wasteful to the point of being insulting, as if he means to use our brother as a decoration. Best to pay the 5 wealth now, we're dealing with too many things to have Stygia bothering us over a trivial 5 wealth.

>>17621460
Heresy indicates the level of deviation from your purpose/duties as seen from the point of view of your superiors and Imperium as a whole. True corruption within your ranks is a lot harder to spot and I chose not to represent it in stats(at least for now), Pic related, breaking these brings corruption.


@Anon who complained about getting Heresy for bombing Delirium stockpiles:
You are confused. Heresy is because your actions led to deaths of 600 000 million imperial citizens, that is - workers, who pay taxes. Less taxes - lesser tithe. Lesser tithe - High Lords are not happy. Drug addiction is not encouraged in Imperium, but it is tolerated as long as taxes are paid and things with claws and tentacles don't fascinate you. In short - in HLoT opinion your actions brought more destruction to wider Imperium than the benefit. As you are Astartes, it is tolerated, but if you will go and purge 10 worlds in a row because of semi-legitimate reasons, someone will be sent to deal with you.

Unfortunately good PR campaign has more chances to clear this corruption than a chaplain.

>>17621625
>adpeptus

Oh god did I just create space marine pepto bismol?

>>17621625
>>17621596
>>17621576

Your ships pick-up cargo and prepare to leave Stygia. Communists declare this day a holiday for all workers and you can see millions of people cheering as you leave, knowing that they will be able to tell their grandchildren that they witnessed Angels of Death with their own eyes.

>>17621692
Lets be cautious on the return trip as well, in case those DE raiders come back.

>>17621692

>>17621709
Agreed.

>>17621753

Silencius agrees, but says that he has no wish to make his homeworld's location known on an open channel. He is looking to your next match in reality, but also mentions that even through soulwords he feels that you play a lot better.

>>17621903
forgot pic

>>17621909
I think we should engage them, although this could be a trap. How skilled is our navigator in tarot and navigation?

>>17621909
The Imperial Tarot has proven quite useful in the past, and it may do so again. Order our Astropath to chart a path with its consultation, but prepare our vessels to engage the Xeno ships regardless in the event that we fail to escape them.

People have been considering selling the STCs, but I'm worried about what Mars and the High Lords are going to think about it. Keeping the STC a secret is likely to piss off the AdMechs in spite of it being our best option for now, and selling off an STC is likely to piss them off even more. The High Lords are also likely to be pissed because of the huge increases in productivity the STCs could bring.

>>17621909
>negotiate with DE
Urgh. No.

We should let him try harder, but we'll engage if his efforts don't pay off. In addition, have all marines ready for combat, in case they try to board us.

>>17621986
The deployment sheet doesn't say where our Librarians are. Are they still training, or do they happen to be with us? Having them consult the Imperial tarot would probably yield better results than the Navigator.

>>17621964
>>17621986
You prepare your ships for engagement, but decide to try to break out first. Nostradamus is not specialised with Tarot at all, but he claims, that his senses are completely blocked. He sits down to use Tarot.

>>17621999
The Adeptus Mechanicus would likely be quite happy to buy them from us, however.

Perhaps we could exchange the STCs we have for the Space Marine equipment Onyx claims to possess?

>>17621999
The local admech might be plotting against us though, we can't risk empowering them further until we figure out their objective. Selling it is a stupid idea, I agree. Keeping it secret however, is in our best interest.

>>17622092
>>17622098
Let's just keep them a secret for now.

>>17622044
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PzQFy7O_5V4&feature=related

>>17621999
You are right if it would be so that you found THE STC, full working knowledge of all humanity. However minor STC's are found quite oftenly(that is in Imperial scales) and most of the forge worlds have their own, unique patterns that they keep secret even from the rest of mechanicus. It is a heresy, but only a small one and you may fear no real retribution from HLoT for keeping these for yourself. However AdMech might be really pissed off.

>boarding SPESS MEHRINES

Time to pop our combat cherry.
And by cherry I mean xenos heads.

Kill them all as quickly as possible, this is likely a tactic to destabilize us before their ships attack.

>>17622150
Dispatch the enemies around us, tell the others to be wary. We should fire at any enemy ships in range.

>>17622092
I don't think the Admechs would be very pleased. Admechs would be sending techpriests from across the sector to work on the archeological dig, and they'd probably be pissed that our techmarines did the work rather than their most experienced Magi. STCs are serious business.

There's also the issue of the High Lord's advice not to draw attention to ourselves. An STC is about the most attention you could possibly get.

>>17622150
"All ships, this is the Chapter Master; stand ready and be advised! We have borders on our ship. Ready yourselves for glorious combat! For The might of the golden throne! Attack!!"

>>17622150
Ok then forget what I said.>>17622248

Damocles 80%, = 34/40 enemies = 15 + HQ
Morbid 86% = 28 enemies = 15, Apo, Tech
Equilibrium 100% = 56 enemies = 15, Apo Tech
Momentum 100% = 40 enemies = 15, Apo Tech

>>17622331
GET IT OFF! Rip the damn thing off his chest! Emperor knows without the navigator we're FUCKED. Grab that sucker and HEAVE. Even if it ends up warping us onto the Dark Elder raider, a Chapter Master will fair one hell of a lot better than a badly injured Navigator.

>>17622377
Addendum: I meant the BEACON when I said rip it off. Just gently nudge the Eldar off, THEN rip the beacon off his chest.

>>17622331
A beacon? Fuck, they're trying to disable our warp capability by taking the navigator. Shoot the raider and tell Nostradamus to move out of the way!

>>17622377
>>17622331
I agree, let's get it off at any cost. Let's try to deactivate that beacon too.

>>17622331
Fuck. Do we have another navigator other than Nostridamus? If so, shoot the DE through Nostridamus. If not, shoot the DE anyways but try and aim to not kill Nostridamus.

>>17622414
>>17622406
>>17622401

>>17622445
He is the only Navigator that can navigate between Sub-Sectors. Other nameless Navigators are apprentices and the like, they follow his lead. Ofcourse, they can be trained...

>>17622520
Let's take the important guy hostage, shoot the two guards, and demand surrender.

>>17622555
Seems like to most sensible choice.

>>17622555

>>17622714
Call for their surrender. Or at-least them getting out of the bridge.

>>17622714
Demand their surrender. If they don't drop their weapons leave the captain unarmed (we'll need him), fire at the other guard, and then attack the attendants.

>>17622761
>>17622746
Dark Eldar are hesistant, but they finally decide to drop their weapons and slowly retreat to the entrance. They are still in cover.

>>17622824
Wait intill they are gone from the bridge then try to wake Nostridamus. Also take stock of the bridge and see if their is anything of use.

>>17622824
Tell them to stay in the room or they'll perish along with the dead guard. Demand they tell you how they got to your ship, we need to get back ASAP.

What I think we should do is get those attendants working. Take over this ship and attack the others. This will both weaken the enemy and let our ships know where we are.

>>17622860
When you inspect bridge closely, you notice that xeno-slave you noticed before is actually a badly scarred Ogryn. He silently watches you, his lips are stiched together.

Also,you notice that on the trophy rack above the captains throne among the xeno-skulls and various body parts there is a Chaos Space Marine helmet and a runed Great Axe.

Meanwhile your HUDS shows this:

15 marines dead, 2 tech, 1 apo
Damocles 80%, = 7/40 enemies = 14 + HQ TELEPORTING BACK
Morbid 86% = 5/28 enemies = 13, Apo, TELEPORTING BACK
Equilibrium 100% = 32/56 enemies = 6, Apo Tech
Momentum 100% = 17/40 enemies = 13

>>17622869
>>17622910
Attendants, encouraged by the cries of their legless leader stay in the room and man the consoles. However you see dark malice in their eyes... What are their orders?

>>17622918
I believe that we should try to shoot the chains of the chaos marine, for I believe this is an "Enemy of my enemy..." situation. Let's keep the Captain pinned, and tell the attendent's to hold their fire on our ships. Possibly something else, but I personally don't know what else they should do.

Free Chaos dude
Keep Captain Pinned

Tell the captain to order the troops on the equilibrium to teleport back. And lets try to free that Ogryn.

>>17622918
Let's get that Ogryn free, he can control the crew for us. Try to send a message to get some marines from Damocles and Morbid to support Equilibrium.
>>17622910
Let's try this too.

>>17622963
That isn't a chaos marine, there are just trophies of one on the wall. I guess the power axe is either our new weapon or the Ogryn's.

>>17622974
This, get his men to surrender. We'll be merciful.

>>17622963
Ogryn is a sub-human http://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Ogryn#.TxtDQ_kZu6Y

There is only a helmet and a Power Halbeard from the Chaos Marine, who probably died long ago somewhere

>>17622998
Oh, I thought you were implying the gear was the Ogryn's

>>17622998
>runed Great axe
>then a power axe
>now a power halberd

Lets stay far away from that thing, it's clearly tainted by chaos.

>>17622950
I don't think the malice means anything, no one would be happy in their situation. Order them to bring up their fleet distribution and troop movements. I want to see which ship we should fire on.

>>17623027
i knew how it looked in my head, but I was hesistant on how to call it :D it is Runed Power Halbeard
>>17622974
>>17622990
>>17622988
You cut through Ogryns chains. He slowly get's up, taps you gently on a shoulder and then with unseen strength and speed garbs Dark Eldar captain and rips him in two. Attendants scream and run fo the exit. What do you do?

>>17623088
It's MARINE TIME.

Also, lets go on a rampage till we find on of those crystal things to teleport home.

>>17623088
Start fucking their shit up with our Ogryn brother, after we clear the room lets take a look at the device used to teleport us here, maybe we can use it to go back.

>>17623088
We should vox our ships to send a transport to the DE landing bay. Then we should meet this transport and go home. Simple as that, screw anyone trying to stand on our way.

Also, smash the cockpit so its unusable, then tell our guys to ignore this ship.

>>17623088
...well fuck. Lets help him slaughter through the DE then, we can't control the ship anymore. Current priority is finding a way back however we can. Grab the halberd, it will be of use in dispatching the eldar. We can test it for chaos taint and destroy it later if necessary.

>>17623122
>>17623116
>>17623106
Even Dark Eldars are too slow for a raging Ogryn - he ripped out a console that must have weighted half tone and threw it rolling into the halway crushing all attendants and the second guard. Then he turns to you and looks for approval. When you nod, he proceeds to ravage console room and you pick up Nostradamus.

Before Ogryn comes close to teleportation mechanism, you try to understand it. [Roll d100, 15% chance]

>>17623116
Let's make sure Nos is alright.

rolled 93 = 93

>>17623188
Rollin'

rolled 88 = 88

>>17623188

>>17623148
You grab Halbeard. It seems ok, just dirty, but you still treat it with suspicion. However you are sure that it is definitely better balanced, stronger and lighter than your standart issue power sword.

>>17623188
Order him very explicitly to NOT destroy this one.

>>17623211
>>17623219
You curse again and promise yourself to pray less and study enemy languages more next time. You click a few buttons and console shuts down. You are not sure how to activate it again

>>17623261
Get one of the DE to do it through intimidation. And by intimidation, I mean getting the Ogryne to skip one so we can pick it up by its next and bring it to the device while motioning at it.

rolled 86 = 86

>>17623261
Let's vox our situation, try to find another DE to mess with the console, we'll take him prisoner.

>>17623310
ignore the roll

>>17623261
Ask the navigator if he can see any warp energy surrounding the halberd.

>>17623290
We cant trust a dark eldar to teleport us properly. We'll have to find a communications station and send out a location signal.

>>17623290
You hide Nostradamus behind consoles and go out with Ogryn into a hunt. In less than two minutes you find a group of four confused Dark Eldar. It is a good thing, because first attack by your new friend kills two of them on the spot. You managed to make him take them alive and you retreat back to the bridge, ogryn first, with xenos under his arms.

Suddenly you feel shadows darkening in the hallway. Ogryn doesn't seem to notice anything, he is running towards the bridge.

Do you do anything?

>>17623341
>shadows darkening

Huh? You'll need to make this clearer before we decide.

>>17623341
Prepare for those invisible shadow DE.

Also, warn our new friend

>>17623341
22 marines dead, 3 tech, 2 apo
Damocles 80%, 14 + HQ
Morbid 86% 13, Apo,
Equilibrium 100% = 20/56 enemies TAKEN
Momentum 100% = 12

>>17623328
>>17623328
^

The dark eldar ship must be hidden. If we dissable its cloak the other ships will be able to find it and us. Also, we need to find a way to stop them tampering with the warp-thread we were fallowing.

Secondary objective:
As soon as the eldar lead that their boardin has failed they will probably flee. But until that happens we stand a chance of getting this eldar ship to fire on them.

>>17623416
While warning our friend vox a call to retake our ship.

>>17623364
>>17623370
Your quick thinking is the only thing that saved you life - all of a sudden two Dark Eldar appeared both in front and behind you. With inhuman strength frontal one punches through your breastplate and black carapace, right into Secondary Heart... You grab him and twist his neck 180 degrees, but the other one grabs your Halbeard and chops off your left arm below shoulder. Ogryn immediately turns around. He roars, ripping out stiches that were holding his lips and with great fury and anger strikes down xeno who would dare to harm his brother in this valley of shadow of death.

Health: 31%

>>17623261
(Oh, we were aiming BELOW that.)
Wake up the Navigator, see if he knows how to get us off this shit hole.

Then hit random buttons on consoles until the ship begins exploding. FUCK DARK ELDAR.

(And have a librarian look at that halberd later. It may have been corrupted by sitting next to that helmet)

>>17623493
Those fuckers are going to die now

>>17623493
If we still have those prisoners, bring them to the console and tell them to teleport us back to our ship. Also can we stick our arm onto our holster or something? We might be able to get it reattached.

>>17623493
>>17623519
The navigator should be able to see if the halberd is tainted by weather it is covered by the warp.

The eldar will be making a counter-attack soon.

Try to turn the ship towards the marine fleet. And fly it closer. When a boarding party comes that shall give you some help.

>>17623596
I've told you allready. Your ideas are weak. We cannot trust dark eldar to teleport us.

>>17623593
>>17623596
>>17623605
Like a real marine, you rip out the blade from your heart, pick up your arm and proceed with ogryn towards bridge.

Make a successful intimidation/communication test[d100, 70%] and roll d10 just for fun

>>17623633

Slap the Eldar with your severed arm, point at the console, and scream, "MAKE IT WORK!"

>>17623622
Nostradamus claims that he sees nothing. However he is very weak, as his frail physique is a lot less suited to whistand sudden teleportations. Also, it seems that Dark Eldar tried to inject him some kind of sedative, but managed to release only a drop or two before you intervened. Probably they thought such slave would be worth a lot.

You also are poisoned with some strong xeno-poison that stops your Larraman's Organ from working and you continue to bleed.

Health 30%

>>17623670
After slapping the Eldar, spray some Emergency Armor Repair Cement over the wound. That should at least CONTAIN the bleeding.

>>17623670
Find something uncontaminated to staunch the bleading from your chest.

Can we direct the ship?

>>17623713
The Ogryn smashed the hell out of the consoles, so probably not.

>>17623643
>>17623666

Dark Eldar is confused and claims that he doesn't know how to activate teleport... However he can activate ship controls(at least those that weren't destroyed).

When he does that, you see that you are in command of:
Lyyeshkin 100% Infiltrator Escort
On board slaves: 340
On board crew: 7
On board enemies: 2

>>17623752
Because of heavily damaged consoles and unwilling Dark Eldar, combat actions and warp jumps are impossible right now.

>>17623752
Can we see the other ships? Tell the Ogryn to look out for enemies, and use whatever passes for a vox on this damned thing to contact our brothers. If there are more of those mandrakes we might not be able to survive this, we need to either have our brothers board this ship or get off it.

>>17623752
"Free those you have captive, then disable the cloaks and follow a cource closer to my ships. Do it this way and you may have a quick death if you so choose"

>>17623713
nothing like this seems to be at hand
>>17623685
you could do that, but do you really want to use a futuristic super-glue concrete on your heart? It will damage you and will be a bitch to remove, but will stop bleeding. Proceed?

>>17623765


What about attempting to navigate the ship?

>>17623765
Slap the Dark Eldar again.Then ask Nostradamus to use his psyker powers to tell the fleet which ship we're on. If he is ABLE, then fly within boarding pod range and have our brothers come pick us up.

>>17623793
Since the rate of damage doesn't seem especially bad, lets not do that.

>>17623796
Seconded, we need our brothers to get on this ship. But lets make sure it isn't the equilibrium we move towards.

>>17623792
>>17623786
in a few minutes Dark Eldar with great sadness translates you console readings:
-Evacuation capsule ejected
-Crew on board left: 2

Also it seems from the console readings, that Dark Eldar retreated... Unfortunately Equilibrium also was taken over and has gone missing in the warp, as your retinue was not aware whether they should try to destroy it...

>>17623793
Tear some loose clothing from nostradamus and thank him. Use that as a staunch instead.

Either of these two.
>>17623796
>>17623792

>>17623830
Lets keep him alive for now, we need to find out where they're based.

rolled 43 + 1 = 44

>>17623830
Well fuck. So where do we stand now? We've lost equilibrum, we're bleeding half to death and the other half is being poisiond, we've lost a bunch of the few marines that we had left and we're stuck on a Dark Eldar ship.

>>17623912
This is the post-battle. Our brothers can board this vessel and get us. The bleeding is slow enough that we'll survive.

Did they take the food? We have to find our ship.

>>17623923
Oh, good. Sorry, I've been really busy with my job (stupid work!) the last two hours and have only been able to skim through the most recent devlopments.

>>17623830
Loot from Leyyeshkin:
340 slaves:
289 humans
2 Ogryns(without Nam, your friend from the bridge)
30 Orks
1 Mandrake
14 Eldar
3 Dark Eldar
20 Tarellians
6 Xo'nad
---
Technologies and valuables worth 84 Wealth
---
Lots of Dark Eldar tech(if interested)

>>17623960
It's only a LITTLE Heresy, and we're getting maimed in this sector. I say we keep some of that technology. To analyze for weaknesses.

Also, we should keep the Xenos as prisoners and interrogate all of them on valuable information (languages, tactics, and technology for example). The humans can become chapter serfs, the Ogryns can become auxiliaries, and the Orks can go die in a fire.

>>17623933
Food was on flagship Damocles, it is safe. What is more worrying is that last transmissions from Equilibrium indicate, that not all marines on the ship died... In fact, it seems that at least half a dozen of them were taken as slaves.

For another matter, you decided that after today's events it is worth to name a successor for the chapter... Just in case something happens.

>>17623995
We cannot afford to lose any more ships, we ought to proceed back towards Tyr with all we have. However, we also cannot allow xeno scum to hold our fellow brothers captive! Document our current position and the bearing of the aliens such that we may return in greater numbers to exact our revenge!

>>17623960
Execute the mandrake. Keep the 3 DE (and our prisoner) confined separately and kept on suicide watch (gonna want to interrogate them for locations/fleet strength). Keep the eldar confined, but let them know that we *might* not kill them if they can help us work this fucking teleporter.

I believe the other xenos may be of help in destroying the DE fleet when we move against it. We might be able to use the teleporter as a "xeno launcher". The orks will likely be happy to "assist", the rest won't like it but fuck em. Also I can't find the xo'nad in the lexi, what are they?

>>17623995
Which brother was it that brought Omiron to our attention? That guy would make a great Chapter Master.

...Alternately, one of the Ogryns.

>>17624019
Huge.

>>17624014
I propose that we contact Silencius after delivering the food.

Arrange detention aboard DE ship:
- mandrake
- eldar
- tarellians
- Xo’nad
- orks
- dark elder

Separate detention onboard momentum until assessed for taint by mistus:
- ogryns
- humans

Have the other chaplain begin interrogation of the dark eldar about the direction and destination of the dark eldar fleet.

Send the negotiator into meet with the eldar and try to find out the direction of the dark eldar fleer.

The xo’nad and orks are to be kept under observation of the librarian and apothecaries who should prepare a report on their behaviour and then execute and dissect them (in that order)

I don’t know what tarellians are or which of these they are best supervised under.

>>17623995
There is as yet no successor worthy.

>>17624076
We should tell him about our stolen ship and sell the de ship to Onyx after searching it some more.

>>17624125
No, we cannot trust Onyx with anything until we figure out what happened with our lost fleet.

>>17624024
thanks for a good laugh, i needed it.
>>17624019
Part of this setting. pic related

>>17624125
We cannot trust onyx, brother.

Better still to have our techmarines do a thorough scan of the ship, its structural weak points. And then test our ordinance on it in space.

>>17624111
Nam and his friend are clean from taint. However some of the men in the slave blocks are not:
Humans(289):
-Psykers(6) [under anti-psychic drugs]
-Mutants(40)
-Chaos cultists(23)

what will be their fate?

Xenos genetical samples greatly impress Hypocrates, he even goes as far as to blaspheme:
'Some of the strains are so good, my lord, that I would gladly change them into my own...What I mean is that we can apply this knowledge to our advantage.'
Naturally brother Mistius in a moment starts preaching him proper morals, so discussion is not ended, just postponed.

>>17624111
Dark Eldar claim, that they don't know the direction of their fleet... It is a real shame, that we don't have a real torturer in our ranks to make them talk. However they offer to work for you in exchange for their lives.

Eldar claim the same, they were captured in webway and kept as slaves, with no knowledge about their captor's plans. They promise great rewards in exchange for their release.

Tarellians are savage dog-like mercenaries for hire with relatively low intellect. They in general don't like humans, but they cooperate a lot more than other xenos,

>>17624220
Nam and his friend are clean from taint. However some of the men in the slave blocks are not:

Humans(289):
-Psykers(6) [under anti-psychic drugs]
Kept on whatever drugs these are and put on black-ships when at Tyr.
-Mutants(40)
Firing squad
-Chaos cultists(23)
Firing squad

Offer them a last chance to accept the emperor, of course. (To be overseen by mistus.)

“And end up as an ork? Or perhapse one of those other ugly creatures? Just how well do you think you understand these strains, brother librarian?”

How does this seem guys? Not all souls are good enough for the emperor to accept...

>>17624220
Kill the cultists of course. Can we tell the allegiance and power of the psykers? The mutants we'll need to evaluate more closely.

Is our arm reattached (if possible, considering the poison and its use as an improvised club) yet? If not then lets gets that done.

>>17624294
On a scale of one to ten how heretical would it be to use the teleporter (which the Deldar will teach us to use) to "launch" captured xenos directly into enemy ships? Because that sounds both effective and hilarious.

>>17624343
I don't think it's too heretical to use Xenos tech to kill xenos in fun, hilarious ways, it's what the emperor would want

>>17624331


Kill the cultists and the mutants, but keep the eldar prisoners. You never know when they might be usefull. I don't think just keeping them as prisoners is too heretical, is it?

>>17624343
Using xenos tech to launch xenos...

The emperor made fighters, not for them to just hide away.

>>17624343
Your arm is unfortunately lost. Hypocrates says that he could grow you a replacement in a few years, or you can just get a bionic.

Problem with this method would be, that was designed to teleport willing subjects. there is no way ork or whoever else will want to follow your idea. And if you will bring them to teleporter chained - they will be teleported chained and it's the same as killing them, not worth the effort.

On heresy note... it would be about 5, where 1 is blaspheming against the Emperor's divinity and 10 - attacking other Imperials just for fun/profit.

>>17624331
>Offer them a last chance to accept the emperor, of course. (To be overseen by mistus.)

By that i meant, before we send them on there way...

>>17624331
I agree completely. Black ships for the psykers, the rest get the wall.

(I'm finally home now so I'll hopefully be more active in this session, depending on how much longer it goes).

>>17624404
>>17624385
neither of these things is heresy

>>17624437
GO, GO, GADGET ARM

Let's get all bionicle in this ship

>>17624437
Hmm, at the very least we should have the dark eldar teach us how to operate it, so we won't have this problem again next time we encounter them. What are the current sources of bionics in our sector, can our techmarines make it?

>Eldar claim the same, they were captured in webway and kept as slaves, with no knowledge about their captor's plans. They promise great rewards in exchange for their release.

Challenge theyre leader to a game of regicide. If he wins, he may decide what is done. If he loses, you will decide.

Tarellians are savage dog-like mercenaries.
Dark eldar offer to work for you
--> Hypocrites & apothecary

Pickle the old arm, put it in a jar and keep it as a paperweight as a reminder to pick a successor when one appears.

>>17624440
Actually, to Mistius' surprise, some of them even do that, before their end,

023.M41
You finally arrive back to Tyr. Your arrival by locals is perceived as something divine, they flock in millions to the capital to see you. Food you brought is God-sent, it will keep Tyr sated for a few years until plague passes. Sirius meets you on the steps of his palace and bows with full respects as required. When he hears your story he offers you 100 Wealth as a compensation for your lost ship and at least a few times repeats that Tyr is in Rising Sons debt. Do you want to use this as an opportunity to request somethinf?
>more money
>initiates
>etc?

Also, you received news from Nordgrim - those 30 000 slaves were processed and you gain 170 initiates,

>>17624294
The DE are lying their asses off. Honestly though, I doubt we could get anything out of them even if we borrowed a torturer from Tyr. Their methods wouldn't do much more than give them boners.

>>17624589
How about having them swear fealty? Or is that too much. We did just save there lives.

>>17624645
Seems a bit much, fealty is "I just saved you from a xenos invasion" tier. Lets stick with wealth for now, we need it for our Nordgrim projects and increasing initiate survival rate.

rolled 68 = 68

>>17624645
They would be willing to do that, but they are quite sure that you are going to execute them(we are talking about mutants and cultists).

>>17624520
He accepts. we both roll d100. you get +30. The one who gets more, wins.

>>17624589
Now that he trusts us, request 30 of his most elite toops to cross train with our initiates and with those elite troops in salvation.

Ask therye generals if they have any indigenous wargear that is of tactical use, what they are, and if they are usefull, that we can have some made for us.

I dont think we want much more to do with this man.

you manage to squeeze out another 25W

right now your coffers are 228W

There are no dead ships around Heidrun anymore.

Well, it think it's over for today. next session will probably be on Thursday, but I might start it even sooner. I am going to archive the thread now

>>17624821
Speaking of Silencius (HA), we need to contact him now and let him know what happened. The DE were in his sector, so he's the best chance we have at finding them.
