Warhammer 40K game interest?
« on: June 02, 2019, 09:43:09 pm »
I used to run games here before, and i've had game ideas bouncing in my head, any interest in a warhamemr 40k game? Im open to suggestions but I wanted to put this out there as encouragement to myself to GET IT DONE :) Im thinking a tactical battlemap game where each player plays one character with up to 10 players because i have been playing disgaea games lately lol. perhaps 2 players could be Space marine power level and the rest would be more soldier level in power.

I've never heard of warhammer games, can you describe how it would work? A suggestion on game type, Roll to Dodge, those can be versatile story wise

warhammer 40k is a sci fi setting, it would be run similar to like a tabletop rpg game like DnD on a tactical gridlike battlemap. its known for being brutal and grimdark, each player would make a character out of the options i provide.

Yes for chaos!

Agree, plus that's about the LAST thing *I* want to see from this kind of game - author spending valuable development time on useless graphics.

Possibly interested. Would this play by any published ruleset? If not, would it be more like the RPGs or the wargames?

I think i would make the rules compatible with GURPS tabletop rpg because i know those rules well, alternatively i could use something more akin to Dwarf Fortress stats system. It would play halfway between rpg and Wargame, I wouldnt say it is like the warhammer wargame but I think it will be like a tactical rpg. I think I'll start putting up the character creation and wargear here just to get started., ask me anything about the game. I expected lots of people to want to play warhammer game :p

Wargear-work in progress

Lasgun range 24
Bolter range 24
Hellgun range 24

Lascarbine range 18
shotgun range 18

pistols range 12

Classes
Imperial Guard
Space Marine - power armor,
Psyker
Commisar -
Sister of Battle - power armor, bolter
Techpriest - Servo armor, power ax
Stormtrooper - Carpace armor, Hellgun
