I am denaid! DENAID!!!

No Black Company RPG. It hasn't come in yet. Green Ronin's only in fucking Seattle. How fucking hard is it to get it to Vancouver?

Arrgh. Must indulge in Ciaphas Cain goodness to compensate.

Thanks for the suggestion Petro.

Crubile of War and What Price Victory feature the exploits of Commisar Cain. I suspect there are a couple in Inferno! that haven't made it to the anthology.

Thanks Stormbringer.

No problem, next to Dan Abnett's stuff I think Stewarts Cain novels are the most entertaining out there.

so there is a reason frag grenades aren't common amoung Imperial guard...

Okay, fun exercise for the assembled. Varian of course will be doing his own digging around and inquiring as to just WTF is going on around here.

SO.

Everyone can feel free to compile rumors based on personalities and current events, and PM them on over to Stormbringer, representing the gossip and chatter he'll encounter during his investigation.

Toss in some truth, some fiction, some outrageous BS.

I'll probably write mine up tomorrow.

That also applies to the inactive game members who might be dropping by to see how things are going.

Oh god YB, don't tell me you haven't read 'em either.

dude I have to drive 130 miles just to play the GAME, I live in a redneck town surrounded by folks who think 40k is satanic (funny thing being that the local Rev. plays at the shop 130 miles away)<plays necros/nids at that>, the books are not available unless I drive to fuckin real civilization, and If I am driving that far, I'm picking up some anime DVD's as well.

Dude! Amazon!

*big hug to the friendly bear*

Ouch, that hurts. I'm twitchy because real life RPing got hosed for the Holidays. I'm not used to going without for two weeks and I had you guys to help me through it.

dude I am near my limit on Amazon, I just got done buying christmas an hunnaka presents....

*glowers at family*
(why the fuck do I have to please both sides of the family?)
not to mention my GF's son.....
(ok, that kid is pure evil, even the Choas powers would be afraid of him. Why exactly do I treat him so nicely....)

Look, it's just family. It's just friends.

One thing I've learned is that you can replace both, especially if you're not picky about the whole 'human being' or 'breathing' issues.

These are the Cain novels. Get your goddamned priorities straight.

I've got an uncle I'm not using. You can have him as a replacement if you want.

well neither addresses the two biggest drains on my pocket book...

maintaining a car in frozen, pothole ridden, mountain hell (my GF needs a new tranny for her 4x4 jeep )
and that annoying insulin habit I have right now...

I sent some rumours to Stormbringer. Most of them are fairly accurate. Most.

My rumors are sent.

Like I said, I'll probably do mine tomorrow. I just got back from a widescreen viewing of AOTC, and I'm a bit brain fried at present.

That and I got a PM from Jesus Christ in my mailbox. Life just gets more and more interesting the longer you hang around here, I guess.

heh, rumours sent to stormbringer

If Hethor's gotten the briefings or seen the picts, he'll recognize Rynthis as the guy in the overalls watching the troops.

Gix's people are in the loop. Joachim Steubin principle.

Figured. That's why I gave you the heads-up.

Oh that poor, dumb, overzealous corporal gets made for a narc and dumped offhand to yet another unit. It just wasn't his day.

YB, that's evil.

Not responsible for any fatalities that may result from disturbing a reptillian beastman while he's handling the beurocratic "paperwork" for the entire mission....

How's it going folks?

In other words, sound off on how you're all getting on, and when you want this particular campaign to begin its wrap-up.
