just in from our friends at /tg/:After the battle against the Orks, your brothers discover a strange vault that the raging battle uncovered.

Curious of what it contains you:

1. Tell to plant detonators to blast up the vault door.
2. Order a Techmarine to open it up.
3. Actually you leave it alone because you don't know what's sealed in there.

I take 1. Tell to plant detonators to blast up the vault door.
(or)
>1 and 1/2
Plant the bombs AND open the door!

Your brothers do as you say and plant the detonators.

Sadly something somewhere went horribly wrong and the entire vault explodes instead of just the doors. The explosion s so big you barely survive...but this cannot be said about the others.

You lose 30 marines and your condition becomes CRITICAL.
(...You know, this game really COULD do with giving chapter serfs a bit of utility...)

You decide that it's the right job for the Techmarine.

It takes some time for him to bypass the lockdown and open the vault, but the wait was worth it.

The vault was actually a secret Legiones Astartes armory. No one knows to what Legion were those weapons supposed to go, but it would be a real shame not to use them.

You acquired 4 Contemptor Dreadnoughts with 4 Keresh Assault Cannons and 4 Cyclone Missile Launchers, a Fellblade, as well a 20 Tartaros Armours and 40 MK. IV Maximus Armours.

A bit bare bones but we can work on it

even moar
We, Salamanders, thank your Brother for discovering a secret vault that stored our long-lost battle brothers and holy artifacts! On behalf of my Chapter, I request you to return those to us.

1. Give away all the artifacts and VI Company to escort Salamander ambassadors to Prometheus

2. You are heretics! (murder them all)

3. We want some compensation for it... (get raped)
4. "Can we keep them? Pleeeeease? I promise we'll take really good care of them and re-sanctify their power packs everyday. Pleeeease? What about just a little bit? C'mon you guy already have loads of this stuff!"
5. Give them most of it then act surprised if they ask about it later.
6. "the what now?" (deny ever finding it)

> How well you're getting along with folks vs how well you want to get along with folks.

While fighting on the (insert planet type and name) of (insert sub-sector name), you get informations that a refugee camp is attacked by (insert faction). These people actually aren't even capable of defending themselves properly, and the Guardsmen with them are too few in numbers.

What do you do?

1. FRAK THIS! I'M DOING WHAT'S RIGHT! (send in half of your total army and feel like a Salamander)
2. We have our priorities and collateral damage cannot be avoided, but just in case a group of brothers should be send to aid them. (the more standard approach)
3. Not my problem. Let them be, we have work to do. Or send in a Whirlwind (the Marine Malevolent route)


In a planet, the chapter encounters four men, with clothing unlike any Imperial fashion you've seen before. The leader (or you assume he is), asks what date it is. When you tell him, he mumbles something to his teammates, who responds in different ways. After a few hours, the serfs can roughly translate that they've been "gone through time". What do you do about them?

>Let them become Chapter Serfs
>Purge them from existence
>Leave them be
To add another suggestion, every planet should have a number of quirks to give it a little more history. Maybe a planet has been fighting a decades-long civil war. All civilians gain the "Hardened" quirk.

Or, to do as >>41586758 did:

While at orbit, you vox-channel opens to reveal the rebel leader him/herself. He/she wants to talk to you. Do you:

>Denounce her as a heretic
>Keep the vox-channel open to see what she has to say
>Inform the planetary governor (inaccessible if the planet is overrun)


Another great idea would be that your enemies would weaken/strengthen/evolve over time. Maybe the Tyranids made a more nightmarish version of genestealers. Maybe the Chaos Lord was murdered, so all his troops are fighting at reduced effectiveness.

You also get beneficial/detrimental events. Do you choose to genuflect with a particularly insane Lord Inquisitor? Or to teach a good lesson in humility? One of your battle-brothers has an idea on how we can fight more effectively, but it violates some sanctions of the Codex Astartes. What do you do?

they've thought of something. Finding dreads from the 30k era or finding Iron Warriors that have been forgotten on worlds they've been stuck on garrison duty for the past ten thousand years.
>Iron Warriors that have been forgotten on worlds they've been stuck on garrison duty for the past ten thousand years.
I'm really surprised that it doesn't come up more often.
>Increasingly small detachments of Iron Warriors become scattered throughout the Imperium, gradually fracturing both their morale and group identity
>Peturabo goes traitor, but is that really relevant when you're a galaxy away and surrounded be people who care just as little (or at least already hated you anyway)
>AND THEN THEY ALL FUCKED OFF TO THE EYE OF TERROR THE END

Anyone else have difficulty dodging the Inquisition with Daemon Binder advantage? Seems like they detect my sorcery regardless of whether or not they have an agent near me. Anyone have any helpful tips for hiding my awesome magical might?

what you want to do is go to appdata where the saves for chapter master are found and put everything fullscreen and large text especially to .0.then once it starts you can turn fullscreen back on

you want the saves not save1 or save2 but saves then it should have settings and fullscreen and large text should be there.

Sounds like a hardware or driver problem.  Try editing "saves.ini" and changing the fullscreen=1 to fullscreen =0.  Failing that, there's a pretty good chance it's not something we can fix.


Also new patch is out.

0.6552

Major Changes:
You may now use several hundred custom icons at once.  Simply add in new .png files with the same name format into the \icons folder and you can find them in the new icon selector during creation.  Note that custom1-4 .png's are no longer included in the game; this means that when updating to future patches your first four icons will not be overwritten.  Also note that on old save games the icon may be bugged.

Great Feasts have been added to the game.  You may now schedule the event through the Reclusium, setting a number of parameters in the process.  If the Chapter Master is present you may also spectate the feast, and see your marine's current thoughts on recent events.  More scheduled events soon to come, along with more flavor text, and possible interruptions and stuff to occur during the events.

Reaching 0 Loyalty is no longer game over- instead you are given the option to become Penitent and return to 50 Loyalty or become renegade.

When marines attack en masse they can no longer severely overkill a single enemy type, and deal more damage as a result.  Combat is a lot easier so expect balancing with upcoming patches.

You may now join* the forces of Chaos.  Very bare-bones, but evil laughing, chaosy things, and chapter schisms will be coming in the near future.

Minor Changes:
Settings may now be changed in the Main Menu by clicking the icon at the bottom left.
May have fixed the bug that built up 'ghost marines' in ships that used up space.
Fixed a rare bug that could make Chaos fleets fly around pretending they are the Imperial Navy.
Fixed a bug that would allow the Chapter Master to be a Psyker despite the Chapter having the Psyker Intolerant disadvantage.
If you are renegade, and in control of a Forge World, you may continue to produce all the normal equipment, vehicles, and ships.
If you are renegade, and have maxed out Wargear or Vehicle STC's, you may continue to produce the unlocked armor or vehicles.
Ships now count as being in the Warp as soon as they are given a destination, as was intended.
Fixed a bug that could allow en-route fleets to unload their marines while still in the Warp.
More dialogue has been added, courtesy of our excellent writers- more Chaos Lord stuff and factions thanking you for STC Fragments.
You may no longer spawn empty fleets by unchecking all ships and assigning none of them a destination.
Cyclonic Torpedoes have been added to the game.  Pick them up from your local friendly Inquisitor Lord!
Fixed a crash when Attacking/Raiding a planet with no enemy forces.
The super-secret developer test chapter uses the correct icon once more.
Restored the World Eaters Chaos Lord- it should be about a 50/50 split between him and the Black Legion one.
Chaos Fleets should now allow the player to enter their star system to permit a meeting, when one is scheduled.

Other:
This version has several major changes.  Crashes are all but guaranteed- be sure to send crash logs and bug reports to the correct email.
