Bio

Greetings,

I am Jb; Briton by birth, roleplayer by my own hand, and lover of literature. I am also an amateur historian, a receiver of a Bachelors degree in Ancient and Medieval History - quite a useless degree, actually - and would like to think that I'm a fair, honest and open guy.

As far as RP'ing goes, I'm pretty open to most things really, all you need to do is ask! :)

So, if you've ever any questions for me, wish to speak about RP's involving myself or run by myself, or simply feel like a chat, don't be afraid to get in touch.

@Bright_Ops That's pretty much exactly it AKA You're fodder.
Well, that is true. Sorry for ever doubting you.
@Quinntessential No, thank you. :)

@BCTheEntity You were apparently on 2 hours ago...where's my post?

@DrunkasaurusRex You last post was nearly a month ago - either post before Monday, or kiss your character goodbye.

@Hank Promises, promises.

@TemplarKnight07 As I said, good post! Should help everything get moving again.
@POOHEAD189 No worries, I'm backing out of this voluntarily; I've held you up far too often, and I think you'd probably have to keep sending me these reminders as well...which is annoying for the both of us.

So, yea, I apologise for holding you up and you can have Arassel slink back into the woods, die, or simply ignore her completely if you like.

Best of luck with the RP though, I'll keep an eye on it even if I'm not posting in it.
@TemplarKnight07 Nope, looks good! Just need our resident tech to either save or doom us now; don't let that stop anyone else from posting in the meantime.
@JbcoolI don't remember this question being asked, so I'll ask: How are we gonna handle combat? Narrative based or dice? If you've already answered it can you link me the post, please?


I haven't, but what would you prefer?

Narrative is always easier, but I could do a mix of the two - you write about going for a strike, I roll to see if it's successful etc; it's just what 'the people' want, really.
@Jbcool

Is it a requirement to know the previous, RP?

Or just know the basic lore of WH40k?


Both is good.

If you've read the IC part of the first post then you should be fine, but a quick summary is this...

- The Vernum System was under attack by the forces of Warboss Mug Thrakta.

- A crusade was called by the High Lords, under the command of Lord General Militant Egough Van Deer, to cleanse the system.

- The final battle has taken place on Vernum Primas, the captial planet of the system, and where the last RP was set and began/ended.

- ALL the regiments (or what's left of them) that took part in the Crusade, which has lasted some twenty years overall, are now being assembled on the trench-crossed fields outside Vernum Primas to recieve commendations and so forth; this will all be covered in my first post.

Most players will be beginning here, and that's fine, as your regiment/warband/troop is likely to have fought the Orks in other battles of the campaign - so feel free to make those up yourselves - before being bought to Vernum Primas for this parade.

As I was going to originally, we will be forming a 'combined regiment' and going from there, so your own regiment will likely have taken massive casualties fighting the Orks throughout the Crusade.

Does this make sense, @NecroKnight, @Bright_Ops, and @agentmanatee and anyone else?
Just to clarify something so I don't mess it up in the post - what time of day are we? The meeting started in the late afternoon, so am I right to assume we're around sunset or thereabouts?


Thaaaaaat would be about right, yes.
Before next Monday it is.


From your text to the Emperor's keyboard, hopefully @Quinntessential can save us all...before the whole colony implodes on itself.
Working on a post, should have it up sometime tomorrow.


Excellent, and thank you Vor, I look forward to it.
