Last few things before my 40K/ST fanfic -

2000AD · Post by **2000AD** » 2002-09-16 05:57pm

I've already got most of the characters to be invented for this fic created in my mind. I just need names. so:

1) First off. If anyone here doesn't want me to use their name at all please speak up now.

2) Off the top of my head i can't think of anyone who would fit the profile of a monodominant inquisitor* on these boards. If you can then please mention them. If no one matches the mono. style then i'll make up a name or use an existing mono.
*A monodominant can be easily compared to Judge Dredd ,ie. zero tolerance, you commit a crime and your dead.

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.

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.

If i come across any more things that i need before i start i'll post them on here.

I'd like to be mentioned...Cyril isn't *that* exotic of a name, even if it isn't my real one.

Go ahead and use me as the extreme Inquisitor...Inquisitor Typhonis of the Ordo Malleus has a nice ring to it.

Actually I'm not thinking of including Voyager in this fic, althougbn i have a spinoff planned.

Post by **Mr Bean** » 2002-09-17 04:53pm

Your not going to kill of Voyager?

Seriously having it smash like a Bug into the first ship in the ST galaxy would be the perfect way to get people intrested(Hey did you read the new guy? Yeah what about him? He kills of Voyager in the first page! WOO! I'll go down there and read it right now!)

I would

There are three reasons why i'm not including Voyager in this fanfic

1)It seems to me that every ST Vs (Whatever) fanfic seems to include Voyager in some way and i'm getting tired of it.

2)I don't know Voyager as well as other Trek, not that i know a lot about Trek in the first place, but i think i have enough to get by. Failing that i'll just get laughed at.

3) As mentioned earlier, I have something special planned for Voyager if people like this fanfic.

Imperial Cruisers are something like 3km long. There was a passing reference in a published fiction piece that said they are 30km long, but I have been told it was an error. Imperial Escorts are in the 1km range. I beileve Battleships are in the 5km range.

Can I be a member of a Space Marine Chapter who goes out in an utter blaze of glory? Spectacular death is all I ask for. Maybe I can pull the pin on a vortex grenade as my dying action as I am overrun by the enemy... Eh?

2000AD · Post by **2000AD** » 2002-09-18 03:32pm

Welcome to the Ultramarine, Brother Marine Adando.

I've chosen the Ultramarines because they are the "average" marines of the 40K universe, not having any special things like the Blood Angels or Space Wolves.

Oh yeah, you wanted most common class

Lunar class cruisers would probably be the most common type, Gothic would be a close second; Gothics, Dictators, Tyrants, Dominators are all based on the Lunar frame, but less common. Dauntless class light cruisers would be popular, but I'm not sure how they stand in terms of % of the fleet in service.

As far as escorts, Cobra class destroyers wouldbe most common, with Firestorm and Sword class frigates also common.

Class Type

Retribution Battleship

Emperor Battleship

Mars Battle Cruiser

Overlord Battle Cruiser

Dictator Cruiser

Tyrant Cruiser

Dominator Cruiser

Lunar Cruiser

Gothic Cruiser

Dauntless Light Cruiser

Firestorm Escort

Sword Escort

Cobra Escort

hmm, can I be a Starfleet officer who sees the light and immediately converts to worshipping the Emperor? If not, then put me down for the guy who gets precisely 2.5 sentences of backstory before getting wasted by a stray artillery shell halfway through the third sentence describing him.

My alternate Identity is Captain Corvus Coronix of the 6th Comapany, Raven Guard Chapter, yes they are avrage marines, but they're cooler than the Ultramarines

Post by **NecronLord** » 2002-09-19 05:33am

In addition the Space marine ships are, in descending order of size

Fortress Monastry (only a few of these)

Battle Barge

Strike Cruiser

Gladius class

Hunter class

Nova class

Firestorm class (same as naval they also have cobras and sword class)

Thunderhawk gunships

That the marines equivenent to a shuttle

Hey what about including *me*? If no one wants to commandeer the ship, then I will.
