It is the 41st Millenium, and the Imperium of man is besieged on all sides by Xenos filth, ranging from the battle hungry Orks, to merciless world eating Tyranids. Heretics, Witches, Traitors attack the Imperium from both the inside and out.
The only thing that stands in all the enemies way is The Vast Backbone of the Imperium the Imperial Guard, the Elite Soldiers of the Emperor Adeptus Astartes, and those that cleanse the Imperium with Faith and Fire The Inquisition.
There are untold billions of men and women in this Galaxy and you are, but one.
You will not be missed.
There is no time for Peace
There is no Respite
There is No Forgiveness.
There is only War.



You have been called, to fulfill your duty to the Emperor be you Astartes, Inquisition, Storm Trooper, or a Guardsmen. The planet Kalvarstad has come under attack by Heretics, even now Traitor Guard and Marines slaughter civilians and PDF forces alike without much to stop them as their Daemonic allies rush forth from the warp portals. No one is sure, why but Psykers seem to grow dizy and weary on this planet though they seem drawn there. No one has ever seen the forces of Chaos work with such a method to get to a certain hive as they seem to be doing now rather than wanton slaughter.







CURRENT OBJECTIVES!
-Push back all Heretic Forces from lower levels of Hive 7
-Find a way to enter into Hive 3 the Origin of the Heretic Incursion
-Find source of Ruinous Powers
-Find Minostorum Priest Jasper Ells. Last Seen in Hive 3



Rules. Why do I need to post anything here? Use your common sense, be respectful accept my decisions. Be polite with your fellow RPers. Oh and no one liners come on people, try a little harder than just throwing up a sentence.

Could be interesting, I'll keep my eye on this.

For the big E and his golden pimp chair!

Interesting.

Always up for a 40k RP.

Glad to see there is some interest. Great thing about a rp like this is that it could be run with 3 to 23 players. Though I probably wouldn't do more than like nine.

I'm curious.

Are there options outside of the templates you mentioned? Astartes, Inquisitor, Storm Trooper, Imp Guard, and Assassin?

Add even more flavor by adding in a Sanctioned Psyker or a Ecclesiarchal Hierophant.

I'll drop this line of questioning completely if you say no.

Like I said I'm just curious.

Well I did say Etc :P Sanctioned Psykers are part of the Imperial guard army, i did put a psyker slot as well. I was just listing examples not so much telling you the only classes you can take.

Just adding my two cents but the majority of 40K RP's I've been a part in die very quickly because player A wants to be a Tau Player B - Necron etc and everyone plays their own story line and gets bored with no one to properly interact with. The reason I like this RP is that it has stuck to one faction (Or close enough) in the universe and then further limited the options, personally I would be really happy with everyone being a Space Marine and us each taking a different role in the squad as we fight Chaos (Salamanders wouldn't be my choice but meh I don't mind :P)

Just my opinion but I would prefer less options than more funnily enough, when it comes to race/role ect.

Ah, yeah.

To be honest, I had completely overlooked that section of the CS....

......I feel like a fool...don't mind me...I'm gonna go hide in a corner for being a moron.

While I am certainly excited about a potential warhammer rp I do have to agree with this one hundred percent. Warhammer rp's don't need a firm grip to be controlled, Personally I believe they need an iron grip. Especially in an open forum setting where people are more accustomed to being able to make whatever characters they feel like and most rules tend to be bent by the GM's to allow this.

Maybe it's just me but I notice on Forum Rpg's particularly, people don't tend to react well to, or follow hard character restrictions all to well. They just make or propose whatever character they currently feel like making regardless of what the DM stated was allowable or not. This si not to criticize everyone on this wonderful site because I know a lot of people do respect the Gm's character restrictions and guidelines. But many do not.

And those few rp's I have been in where both space marines and Imperial guard are allowed ended questionably. because the space marines are far more powerful and usually end up leaving the Imperial guard behind in the dust or just making Imperial guard characters all but obsolete. I am willing to try one more time but I will say usually it's better to do one(space marines) or the other (Imperial guard/ Inquisition).

But enough of my nay saying. That was my downer bit and I will leave you to Gm the game you desire and shut my mouth from here on.

I was thinking about making a Valkyrie Pilot maybe? or I am sure I can think of something. I am currently just trying to jive some other possibly failing rp's I have to make sure I will have time for this one. so whether or not I can join is currently a mystery. But I am hoping.

Actually if I did have to disagree with something Everblight said it would be his comment about choosing salamanders as the chapter in question.

"Salamanders for the win!" Those guys are just awesome. Easily one of my more beloved chapters.

You guys have all made valid points, and while I appreciate the thoughts and will take them under consideration I have taken some precautions to ensure that you know... people wont' be running off on their own. No one will be able to succeed at anything in this except working as a team. I chose the Salamanders chapter purely for certain aspects they have. They tend to favor humans and will protect humans rather than just strictly going after the goal. With the release of the new IG codex "Astra Militarum" guardsmen have definitely gotten a leg up with their new 4+ BS skill and 3+ and or 4+ armor saves they've really been beefed up and become less of a meat shield army. I plan on keeping the inquisition very few and far between as there wouldn't be a WHOLE lot of them. Probably going to restrict the big { ] [ } to a maximum of two players. Salamanders are one of the best chapters (It's what i play in real life), but it was between them Smurfs or Angels, and i don't like angels or smurfs lol.

Well I am super interested in this. The last 40k RP I was in just kinda died for reasons unknown.

well between the two interest checks i'd say I have enough people for a OOC
So. Gonna get working to get that up now.
