Yep, its why the weapons kill in Tabletop against even imperial guard infantry.

Well, the more power available the more the detonation, in theory. So it should be interesting, no doubt about it.

@Eisenhorn

We should give it a try on Aviza's power armor!

The Galvanic Rifle actually takes the possible energy within a being, and causes it to detonate in an electrical explosion. Which would kill anything with any possible energy, including the potential for movement.

@Eisenhorn

So, even the measly energy output of a human is enough to cause a deadly reaction?

In that case, I can only wonder how much of a reaction it'd create in a robot with a heavy power supply or person wearing powered armor!

Energy weapons are awesome right up until they blow up in your face, for most Imperial plasma weapons.

And I just fond this thing, the Galvanic Rifle. This, i want Stukov running around with one of these. He could take up a longer range role, among other things.

@Eisenhorn

In which case it perfectly suits Adrianne's character, what with her preferring to forego safety for EXTRA POWER!!

The Galvanic Rifle sounds cool and all, but will it really be effective versus anything other than an electrical target/robot? :P

Hmm, both of those are good, I was looking at Mechanicus weapons and approving there, too!

@Eisenhorn

Adrianne is currently using a custom made handgun which is just a few sizes smaller than a bolt pistol, though I have been considering switching over to a custom plasma pistol instead.

I just love energy weapons!

Hah, didnt think of it that way, but he kind of is xD

And tropes shall protect where reality and reason fail us all! But in all seriousness, been looking at what Stukov would know how to use, and its not a lot lol. I'll find some pimping piece of archeotech or OP weaponry and eventually get my grubby hands on it, to the chagrin of all chaos worshippers to be had in the galaxy.

@Eisenhorn

I'm thinking a human-sized Boltgun of some kind could fit Stukov nicely!

Or... dual-wielded bolt pistols!

I didn't put any real thought into character archtype for Stukov, he was just kind of a "What haven't I done in W40k before?" approach. And now he is probably the least dangerous out of the party, relatively speaking xD

Compared to psyker powers, bolters and power armor, power weapons, so on and so on from the active group, leaves him in light carapace and an autogun at the moment. Should be interesting seeing him struggle against later enemies.

@Eisenhorn

He sounds like an FPS player. Lightly armored, super-jumpy and twitchy shotgun lover ^^

Stukov should probably ask Zhevon for a Melta-Gun! Despite The Rule of Cool and The Cult of the Shotgun, his old shotgun won't do much vs any enemy with proper armor.

Warhammer 40,000 - Chasing Chaos

Hah, indeed, poor Adrianne would be in so much more trouble if dice were involved, since then levels of psyker power attempts would be in place. Odds are, both she and Stukov would be dead right now xD

@Eisenhorn

Fun fact: I actually designed Adrianne to be rather tanky xD

I know bad things tend to happen to psykers, and so I gave her refractor field, plate armor and an energy-resistant environment jumpsuit beneath.

And if I could ever give her a character trait, it'd be something along the lines of "Toughness"!

Behold the Psyker tank!

Warhammer 40,000 - Chasing Chaos

Fortunately there is no dice involved in this Roleplay, so there amount of randomness can happen out of the blue is solely determined by the writer's mental health and not the fickle will of the gods of the dice :D

Warhammer 40,000 - Chasing Chaos

<Snipped quote by Rithy>

There was about five of us, if memory serves. And the ship decompressed. And I was the only person who had power armor that could take void exposure, and I was busy being dead in the warp.

@Eisenhorn

lol, it'll take some effort for Adrianne to muck-up that badly! I would have loved to see the looks on their faces when you did that :P

Space is dangerous, and often underestimated in fiction. That is why I decided to give Adrianne a suit capable of surviving in space. Though, I doubt it'd help if she imploded xD

Good news, awesome SC2 video is awesome.

And it was more like the 30m chunk of the ship, in a sphere, kind of poofed. With all teh downsides of being within 30m of the hull did to the rest of the ship. It was a TPK too, which led to me being banned from playing psykers in black crusade ever again xD

@Eisenhorn

lol, how many people were in the party? xD
