Whoo! Grey Knights! Prius has no clue what those even are...

Those poor Boreans thought they were finally free of their despotic commissar... oh to see the look on their faces when they find out they've been drafted as wannabe stormtroopers...

longinus which is a bad mideval refence...

no, I was just thinking about those weapons vs. our enemies....

I mean as a person who usually plays forces equiped with deadly weapons, and armoured in eggshells, the thoughts of armour plus wankable weapons....

sorry must clean up mental drool....

Heh.

I didn't mean Grey Knights, anyway. Too uber.

Did anyone get the refrence with the spear

btw 12' is not too long for a regular spear..

a greek war spear was that long.

a classic pike was 15' to 18 feet long, some military forks and halberds like those those nemesis weapons are based on were 24' long

so what would be the 40k fluff equivalent to a longinus, not to be confused with lets do extermitus NGE version...

I got it, YB.

Prius will definitely warm up to the former Sister when the hunt for the PsyKing begins in earnest.

Post by **The Yosemite Bear** » 2004-12-12 03:46am

the disadvantage to posting is that you can't read what others are posting...

Imperial Overlord · Post by **Imperial Overlord** » 2004-12-12 03:50am

I got it as well. And since I tend to spend a little time writing my posts, I find that frustrating as well. The edit button does help.

Petrosjko · Post by **Petrosjko** » 2004-12-12 03:54am

Yeah, it's caught me a couple of times... the most notable one was back in the big fight, when I wrote this beautiful post about Prius being overwhelmed by a Path officer in a sword duel... so I hit 'submit' and find out that about three posts have passed, including one where one of Gix's entourage shot said officer...

I initially deleted it, but then went back and just worked in the kill-shot to the post.

GeneralTacticus · Post by **GeneralTacticus** » 2004-12-12 03:57am

I had that happen several times during the big offensive - like Petrosjko, I mainly dealt with it by deleting the offending posts, but I also tried to avoid it by refreshing the thread immediately before hitting 'submit', to make sure nobody had posted anything new.

Imperial Overlord · Post by **Imperial Overlord** » 2004-12-12 03:57am

Ditto with the mutant versus Gix bitting-regenerating-dissolving.

Pcm979 · Post by **Pcm979** » 2004-12-12 04:01am

Ditto with posessing Prius.

So, people want me to get Grey Knights? Izzat right? I was planning on summoning guys from a Chapter of my invention.

Petrosjko · Post by **Petrosjko** » 2004-12-12 04:07am

That's up to you and NL. Given that we have encountered daemons on the world, there is a possible justification for their presence, but for the general framework of what we're dealing with, a regular chapter would be more plausible. Unless we get word of some kind of big-ass summoning, it likely would be beneath their notice.

GeneralTacticus · Post by **GeneralTacticus** » 2004-12-12 04:07am

I don't mind either way; up to you and (probably more importantly) NecronLord.

Imperial Overlord · Post by **Imperial Overlord** » 2004-12-12 04:08am

No, we are just RPing a bunch of Malleus Inquisitors talking about who they would ideally get. We may not get any SMs at all and Grey Knights could easily be unavailable.

Pcm979 · Post by **Pcm979** » 2004-12-12 04:10am

Well, I'll PM him about it immediately.

Imperial Overlord · Post by **Imperial Overlord** » 2004-12-12 04:11am

A small horde of daemons reinforced the enemy cultists. They were tearing navy gunships out of the air. Our characters would probably want Grey Knights. Whether they get them or not is up to NL. PM him about it Pcm.

Personally, I don't think we will (or should) get them. The demigods will steal the limelight. But my character does want them to back him up.

Petrosjko · Post by **Petrosjko** » 2004-12-12 04:56am

Well gentlemen, this is where I call it a night. Usual line of puppeting, blah blah blah, Prius will likely spend most of his time fiddling with the dataslate and organizing his forces.

Not to mention getting a massive hard-on from being in command of the military end of a major heretic-purging operation... yippee!

Imperial Overlord · Post by **Imperial Overlord** » 2004-12-12 05:05am

I will be joining you in sleep time shortly.

Captain tycho · Post by **Captain tycho** » 2004-12-12 05:16am

I'll be in bed in about an hour, also.

Would it be far too late in the piece for an old-skool Inquisitor to enter stage left?

Pcm979 · Post by **Pcm979** » 2004-12-12 05:47am

Probably not, but you should clear it with NecronLord first.

Squeblish Nef? · Post by **Squeblish Nef?** » 2004-12-12 05:57am

The whole 'Inquisitor' thing is probably a tad hackneyed.
Wouldn't mind playing an Eversor (have read an acceptable fanfic about one), or maybe a Techpriest.
Would have problems playing a non-human thanks to the melodramatic wank that the 'official' authors pump out when they write from an Eldar viewpoint.
