I'll also change my vote and put it in favor of the Aztec Tunnel Fighter regiment, name yet undecided (probably with a moniker like "Tunnel Jaguars" or "Cuatlan Jaguars"), since they actually turned out far better than I expected in the end.

Anyway, no matter the regiment we end up with, any Weapon Specialists and Heavy Gunners should probably start discussing the favored weapons they have in mind since they're the most interested and the ones immediately benefited by the choice. Knowing how the IG works, we won't be limited to fighting in cramped spaces where we could party all night long.

And I added Mistrusted on top of The Few, because those jaguar pelts are expensive. Cloud of Suspicion is borderline suicide seeing as we're already toeing the line here, and the Ordo Hereticus aren't likely to care much about how we see the machine spirits.

3man75, this is WH40k.
Camouflage literally isn't at ALL a consideration in color schemes.

I've never played before but I'll keep that in mind.

I could introduce you to 40k over a virtual tabletop or somesuch, if you'd like.

@Remuthra: Since the beast hide would to be mostly decorative (light carapace armor comes with CQB Doctrine), could we tone its availability cost to Scarce for the proposed Aztec-esque regiment? As it is, it costs 20 points for the giant jaguar pelts and I want some points to invest in the obsidian blades.

Any equipment that is decorative only and part of the uniform is covered by the uniform itself.

It's only a +1 AP for Body if we have the beast hides as they are, so it's probably for the best to have them as decorative only. What are the chances that 1 point of AP will make a difference, anyway? R- right?

We might be able to get rid of The Few or get more stuff if we left them out, as well?

I think I'll discuss the extra kit equipment over IRC. Erasing the death world hide does open a lot of doors, as cool as I think it would to have pelts with the resistance of armor. More room to improve on the "murder-or-break" obsidian blades or possibly get combat shotguns, depending on how general opinion goes.

Ughhhh. No.
Primary stats for Ratling Are BS and Perception. You've got below average perception and below average shooting skill.

With high int and high wp your stats lend themselves more towards a psyker or a priest.

What? It says to roll 2d10 (+20) for your characteristics in the core rulebook.

Oh well I know that. The way you said that I thought I was doing something wrong. I can just roll another character.
