Oh.

Thought that could be the case.

What about grenades?

[Alexandria]

But we want that upgrade, it reduces the odds of jams or overheating.

[Elfeater]

I am all for using the better carbines. But we need to decide on the side arm!

[Caellath]

I said Good Quality carbines do not help. They are the same as Common Quality. Good Quality adds the Reliable trait and the Las Carbines are already Reliable. Meaning both have the same chance of jamming (one in one hundred) and no chance of overheating.

[Elfeater]

Upgrade the melta and the multilas?

[Rolepgeek]

Well, I either want to be a Sanctioned Psyker, an Operator, an Enginseer, or a Ratling. I'd prefer Operator, but can take Enginseer if our regiment doesn't use vehicles.

[Remuthra]

We can only upgrade one of the things in our standard kit.

[Elfeater]

Alright, but what do you guys want for a side arm?

[Alexandria]

Well then I'd go for the best quality armor but going off memory since I'm on a phone that costs 10 and we have 9.


Sidearm I won't carry so I don't care.

[Elfeater]

Why are you so anti fire arm? You should get one, just incase.

[Rolepgeek]

HEAVIES NO USE PUNY WEA-

Oh wait that's my Ogryn voice...

[Alexandria]

I'm not, I've got 2 guns already I don't really need a third one. It'll weigh me down more then I already am.

[Elfeater]

Eh, it wont weigh you down, I will take your ammo when we get into the fray though.

[Alexandria]

I've got the heaviest armor already as well as 2 rifles and all our other kit. Even a little extra weight is worth avoiding for me and a side arm isn't really required when you've got 2 rifles.

[Caellath]

I say we probably wouldn't miss a sidearm because most of us have a gun aside from the Las Carbine (Commissar has a Bolt Pistol, Weapon Spec. has the Melta Gun, etc.) and the Las Carbine has a good amount of charge packs, not to mention it would be fairly easy to requisition ammo unless the Munitorum screws things up and - sincerely - if the Munitorum screws up a laspistol won't save our collective asses.

Let's try to calculate what was already picked and what's lacking. I remembered the GM added Well-Provisioned so we have no extra equipment points, so let's take a look at the options, since we have 30 points:

5 (grapnel) + 10 (upgrade flak armour to Best) + 15 (whisper-bolt discharger) = 30 points
5 (grapnel) + 5 (clip/drop harness) + 8 (micro-beads) + 10 (flak armor to best) + 2 (chrono) = 30 points
5 (grapnel) + 5 (laspistol plus 2 charge packs) + 8 (micro-beads) + 10 (flak armor to best) + 2 (chrono) = 30 points
5 (grapnel) + 10 (upgrade flak armour to Best) + 15 (add one advanced medkit to everyone's gear) = 30 points

Have in mind that: the micro-beads (earpiece for tactical comms) are a good choice since they'd allow us to remain in constant contact; having a watch always has its uses; finally, Advanced Medkits add +20 to anyone's attempt at Medicae even if you don't have it trained.

Alternatively, getting the Flak Armour to Good would still be a good choice as long as we aren't being constantly shot in the face, since it adds +1 armor against the first shot you take in a round. We'd still miss the cutdown in weight which would probably help our wimpier people, though.

It is also worth noting we'd need to clear up our final setup with the GM.
