I always go with that defensive trait, saves a ton of assault marines.

So! I found out what was wrong. I apparently tried to play Soulstorm earlier on the 31st and it wasn't working correctly, and I thought I exited the game. It did not appear in the task bar, nor did it appear on the task manager. It wasn't until today when someone messaged me on Steam asking about 40k and when I sent my first chat it was green, as in I was in game. So apparently, it had been running in the background since the 31st until today, and was keeping me from running Chapter Master properly. It also decided to fuck around with my screen resolutions and driver settings as well.

Chapter Master now runs perfectly fine, and I am having great fun with it. Thanks to those who tried to help me.

Clearly you had too much dakka going on at the same time. This changes everything regarding ork theology.

You were running your computer non-stop for five days? And you haven't noticed that you had an game running in background ALL THE TIME?
Woah.

Happens to me sometimes, too.  I really wish Steam didn't count time spent idle.  Totally messes up my stats :P
Like they kinda said, the game often doesn't appear on the taskbar or anything.  It should have a process, but it can have an unexpected name...  Like when this happened to me with Far Cry 3 a lot, it was because Uplay didn't close all the way.  Still counted me as playing FC3 overnight.

Um.  Lurking this thread has been fun but I'm going to actually give the game a go finally today.  I'm eager to experiment, but any creation options I might want to know about?  Like, penitent chapters not getting reinforcements or whatever.

Since I roll around with my entire chapter, there are only ever 2 types of fight, never any that are "close" or intresting.

Total curb stomp, 1 turn fire, 1 turn cleanup
Total getting curb stomp'd with 0 surivors

There can never be enough dakka.
"You must create a weapon that can hit every point in space and time in the multiverse... with bullets that are each composed of every point in space and time in the multiverse... at point blank range to every point in space and time in the multiverse... And to clarify, the term "multiverse" includes: all alternate realities, parallel realities, perpendicular realities, potential realities, imagined realities, unimagined realities, inconceivable realities, and impossible realities. So you need a gun that shoots at everything, with everything, when next to everything." And then you can make gun that shoots those guns.

I think the googols-of-guardsmen bug maybe accomplished that.  Multi-planar packing was the only way to even begin to explain what the warp was going on there.

I almost wonder if there should be a measure that allows for better reasons to send out segments of the chapter rather then rolling around like Asterion Molach with the whole Chapter.

Or easier to do anyways.

The sector probably falls apart faster then you can steamroll things 1 at a time.  At least from my experience from before...  And fleet combat may be a tad bit catastrophic if you have marines on board, that may have changed too, but probably not.

And you theoretically need casualties to harvest geneseed, right?
I haven't actually played just yet, but those geneseed clone tube things sound kinda heretical.

Nah, those numbers a just a standard deployment for the guard, it's about as many as they would need to deploy to screw in a lightbulb retake a planet, and they still get slaughtered by the millions each turn. So I'd say it's fairly accurate.

Meanwhile, on the lava world of a nearby system, 43 PDF are holding off an extreme tyranid infestation with zero losses to them or the population of 533. Sounds about right.

Too bad, you can't recruit those 43 PDF troopers, with those bastards you could easily conquer the entire sector for yourself.
