This won't really be a complete thread until the 'search' function comes back online (I have layouts and the like that I enjoy using), but I thought I'd put this up anyway. It will be my...third...fourth attempt at an 'adult' Imperial Guard RP, every other attempt having comes to a conclusion before there times for one reason or another.

Anyway, enough of that.

What I'm looking for are [b]dedicated[/b] fans of both 40k in general and, more particularly, the lore and the Imperial Guard; I envision Gaunt's Ghosts mixed with Sharpe and his Chosen Men mixed with the Dirt Dozen mixed with Alien mixed with Band of Brothers/Pacific and Saving Private Ryan. Generally, I wish to write (not really 'play') a gritty, semi-realistic (as 'real' as you can get with laser-firing cannon-fodder in a Grimdark universe), narrative along the lines of BoB.

Here a couple of things to note.


1. I'm looking for a fireteam or squad/section, depending on how many are interested, with specific positions to be filled.

2. We'll be part of a Penal Legion made up of elements from [b]all over[/b] the Imperium, that means an expendable but surprisingly tough and vicious bunch of mofos. They could be anything from a clerk who diddled some numbers, to a serial rapist, murder, deserter, illegal gambler/brawler, a truly framed an innocent person...whatever.

3. This is [b]Advanced[/b], anyone looking at this forum should know what that means in terms of rules, writing etc.

4. Abhumans - Ogryns or Ratlings, that is all.

5. Characters are part of the Guard's Penal Legions AKA the scum of the Imperium, so no Astartes, Ecclesiastical troops, etc.

6. Realism; as I said I'm not expecting every little detail, but what I do expect is variety in personality and background, suitable responses to things, and no crossover between meta knowledge and knowledge that a character might posses. Lack of ammunition and so forth will also be a factor, decisions you make having an effect overall.

7. Characters can and will end up dying - you're in the Guard, son!

8. This is going to be a mature-themed RP, things will get adult, so you've been forewarned.

9. If you plan to leave after showing interest here, or you're just generally untrustworthy when it comes to remaining in an RP, just don't post here. Just don't.


That't it, for now.

Any questions then do ask.

Thank you for reading.
