Anathema: General discussion (OOC)

[Lurk Skywalker]

Gents,

I will be slow posting today and tomorrow (work intruding again) and am off to Scotland for three days starting tomorrow evening (vacation).

Feel free to use the marines in the meantime if things get hung   

[DM B]

Hey Bjorn, did you delete my squat post? Trusting my memory is bad....

I moved it to OOC; you can copy-paste from there.

No point leaving it in the IC thread since it would appear in the wrong spot anyway.

So feel free to repost now.

Yes. Both Lexander and Gaius have essentially given up control to the GM (which isn't necessarily a good thing!), leaving Nouri the only sane(?) person left in the enginarium. What iron; the chaos sorcerer is the last to given in to...chaos

[Lurk Skywalker]

Yes, yes, yes. Chaos! Chaos! Chaos!
Will try to make the most of the few free minutes I have here though. 

[LordPsycho]

Team, please note that I'll be AFK between November 8 to 11 (trip to Paris to visit friends)

I should be able to post later today and/or tomorrow !

Chaos ! Chaos ! Chaos !

[Ohlaak (Alan)]

How in dear gods name is the chaos sorcerer, sane one standing?

Worse yet, had the daemon posed his question a little differently, this battle would be over...

Nouri has a serious issue with the concept of master.  After all, his entire life was about becoming the master of his own life, and not at the whims of another. 

[DM B]

The daemon is a daemon is a daemon. It doesn't negotiate well with humans.

[Stonecrown Coster/MB (Rune)]

It does PLAY well with humans, however 

[Dragon Lord]

I'm beginning to think that Maegon is going to be the only one to get out of this alive, unless the daemon decides to destroy the hive out of spite.

I'm beginning to think that Maegon is going to be the only one to get out of this alive, unless the daemon decides to destroy the hive out of spite.

Indeed, Maegon is calling enemies of the Emperor's Children (Ultramarines, Dark Angels, World Eaters... same result) so they can nuke the ship 

EDIT: even with that, the daemon should be able to create a sphere of protection and survive with his new body / puppets

Fortunately, Maegon's tarot guided him opposite the ship, up in the spire 


GM, I invoke Dark Angels - Ravenwing Patrol \o/

Sidenote: seems like the Grey Knights are waiting for the best timing to slay the Daemon 

[Lurk Skywalker]

Astartes are not puppets, but puppies!

With our luck we'll probably find out one of the Relictors is secretly one of the Fallen.

Didn't we agree to keep this quiet

Semi-OOC: Taking control of the command deck (aka. the bridge) is one way of controlling the turrets. The other option is to physically locate each turret and operate them locally. The latter option is probably out of reach due to a lack of manpower. Remember that while this is a small ship it's vastly larger than any supercarrier ever built. So there are a lot of rooms and corridors and whatnot. Plus there are still a thousand or so crew...so do not make the mistake of imagine this ship as 'small' in the absolute sense.

I had been taking the size into account and assuming that it would have a separate fire-control centre, if not (or if you think it would be implausible for the Nar-Ghosts to capture) then they'll go for a single turret near the prow, Azrael isn't stupid enough to try and take the bridge, though I do have other ideas we'll get onto later, a Magos inside what is basically a giant machine is a dangerous thing

[DM B]

Fire control center sounds reasonable as long as you provide a good narrative.

So what is the Magos doing on the OUTSIDE!?
