You could just invent one, but my real one is Werle (pretty weird huh?).

Sorry Skelron, no Eldar. From the 40K universe there is going to be Imperial guard (undecided regiments), space marines (ultramarines) and some inquisitors as well as all the supporting stuff like tech priests, titans, servitors, etc.

No sisters of battle then?
(Nuns with flamethrowers, supremely funny "Sister superior, i have preformed the rite of ripping the enemy limb from limb")
Oh how about a Ramilies class star fort as well?
Last chance ...

Ok everyone this is your last chance to get your name in (or out) of the fanfic. I'll be starting in a few days time. I need names for the following characters. If no one comes forward then i'll either invent or take names from the forums:
An Amathalian inquisitor (someone who likes to keep balance)
A Xanthite inquisitor ( Someone who will use any method to get the job done, even going as far as to use alien technology or other "heretical" things)
Imperial Guard commanders (ranging from squad leaders to a general)
Space marine squad leaders
Space marine chaplain (morale officer/priest) , librarian (psyker) and techpriest (mechanic supreme)
Titan princeps (one or two) (a princeps is the commander of a titan, a titan being a bi-pedal warmachine much taller than an AT-AT, think Mech's from the Mechwarrior series only many times bigger and more powerful)
Starship captains (Imperial and Federation)
A deamonhost (someone who has had a deamon summoned inside them.)
Please post or PM me and i'll update the list with places that have been claimed.
Also if the person who I recently accepted as a Terminator captain could please contact me as i have deleted the PM by mistake and forgotten your username and character name

sorry.

Sister's of battle = waste of space in my mind!
No star forts either.

Their only there for fun value really
fine, no fort, it would kinda be overkill
Can I nominate DarkStar as the deamonhost(posessee)?

Darkstar, TOWNMNBS and others like them are all ready in place as people on the Trek side.
Also, if people don't object to it, i'm thinking of including some of those racist bastards from the WCOTC as fanatic followers of Inquisitor Sheppard, as the monodominant beliefs seem to be very simular to theirs just with a 40K twist, ie. aliens = heretics, mutants = heretics, psykers/witches/warlocks = heretic, anyone who doesn't have the same beliefs as us = heretic , etc, etc .
Expect to see them got ripped apart VERY early on in the fic.

You're grouping me with them!?! argh nooo cooped up in a thunderhawk with thirty raving racist loons!
Can I punch arminius for annoying me? (space marine punch

)

DON'T PANIC. As i said they will be killed VERY early on, like in the first couple of scenes early on. You wont have to suffer them for long and if you want i can include some "friendly fire".

Can they all be stupid enough to get really close to the redshits, and then be annihalated by falling masonry?
Posted: 2002-09-21 04:32pm

Done. Would you like me to invent a second name or are you going to supply one?
*Note to Imp. Guard commanders. After i have all the people who put their names down i'll pick the general.

Also , when i said i'd be getting rid of them in the early scenes i meant before they'd even got ot the ST galaxy.

3) If you really want your name to be mentioned then speak up. However I want to try and keep the names "realistic" so there wont be any Brother Marine NecronLord's or Lieutenant GAT's (although Thrawn may get in there) , so if your name is not that "realistic" then please suggest another name that you might want to be called by. If your username is something like mine and you really want it to be in, don't worry. I'll probably be mentioning some servitors (maybe archoflagellants) somewhere and they need reg. numbers.
I'd love to be mentioned or even have a small part in the fic. If Eleas doesn't fit, I could always be Brother Björn Paulsenus of the Space Wolves.
4) 40K ship sizes. On the 40K imp vs SW imp topic in other SF there have been varying numbers for the size of 40K cap shps. Can someone please give the name and length of the most common "big" ship in the 40K imp. fleet.
IIRC, there's a fair bit of conflict regarding the numbers...

WHAT no Eldar, :Curl's into a ball crying: Okay then erm I still want to be named, use my real Surname for someone in the IoM. (Mawdsley) I don't mind what the first name is (Mine is Andrew, but it seems wrong somehow, but Mawdsley might fit better)
