So, remaind me: How many Chaos ships are left now?

Uh, I haven't been keeping count. The naval battle was all in IO's hands, being as how he's the BFG guy.

well since I've done write ups on everyone else....


"Guy Fawkes" Rh1n0 varient Immolator
Species: Machine Spirit/tank
Age: 9000+ (all records of Fawkes date back to the Age of Aposty, some parts and equipment are much older.)
Powercells: several hydrogen fuel cells, and heavy metal core batteries.
primary plant: Fission/fusion needs hydrogen for extended uses.
main turret arment: Heavy Flamer
Sponson Guns: Multi-meltas
Anti-personell guns, 3 stormbolters, 2 regular, 1 psychout.
Trititary defenses: smoke/grenade launchers
HEavy Armour: They don't make them like they used to.

in combat Fawkes enjoys blowing things up, and buring them, outside of combat, he's incredably tempermental and a nightmare to maintain.

Well, at least he doesn't pack a trio of hellbores and a hellrail to top it off, combined with a gazillion infinite repeaters. Imagine maintaining all that.

IO's handling the naval battle, so you'll have to ask him, Typh.

Stormbringer- You're on the Sword with Prius, Nathan, and Lilith.

However, the enginarium there might be under attack as well, we have been holding off on resolving some of the battles until everyone could get their piece of the action. But that'll be IO's call. What we do know is that the fighter bays have been under attack.

I'm sorry, do I have my battle confused? I was a bit confused and if I got it wrong I guess I got it wrong. What's going on and which ship?

Yeah, the whole thing got very confusing.

Okay, here's the rundown again:

Jolan Gix, Raul Adivan are on the Divine Retribution.

Varian, Prius, Nathan and Lilith are on the Sword.

Adivan is defending the enginarium on the Retribution, while Gix is enroute to help him.

Prius is kneeling in a corridor surrounded by awed members of the Sword (his spec ops unit, not the ship)

Varian probably has been engaging boarders on the Sword and you can write some material to that effect.

Nathan and Lillith have been engaging boarders near the fighter bays on the Sword.

Okay, think I've got all the PCs covered.

I'm going to be out for most of the evening, got a guest over. But IO should be on at his usual time.

To clarify, the boarders on the Sword of Glory are by the flight decks.

The Strike Cruiser Nightmare and the Battle Barge Harbringer of Agony have made exchanged broadsides with the Sword and the Retribution. They are now burning towards the transports, which are easy meat.

The Crone is engaged with boarding the Spite, which is progressing well. The other Infidel class raiders are toast. Two Sword class frigates remain to guard the the transports. The Cobras are sweeping back into the battle.

D20 system based on the Black Company Novels.


And Imperial Overlord, you'd better give me a run down of it and if it's any good. I'm very interested in that and it would make a good excuse for a run to the local gaming store.

As I am not blind, I have noticed Hemlock Grey enjoys the Black Company as well.

That's a shame. It's quite good and you might be pleasantly suprised.

Might give it a try when I'm flush with cash again. I'm not arbitrarily anti-fantasy. It's just usually not my bag.

It's pretty gritty and cynical, which I have a hunch you enjoy. It's pretty close to military sci-fi.
