Multiattack does require special talents, though beak and the kroot rifle would be a valid attack form for it.  You could try to knock the guy down or feint, or just cut him open with your blade.

Didn't find it in the RT books... might be a DH thing.
Ah, well, just ignore it for now.

I'm sure it's a thing in at least on of the 40k rpgs. Maybe auspexes just fill the role.

Waiting a bit to my action being parsed :P OR, I'm also under the impression that its a major action and given that, you're settling everyone else, VoidSlayer? :)

{Much help, page numbers!}
Um ._. What...about half and full turns?

Structured time starts on page 234.

Basically each round a character takes a single turn doing actions in initiative order.

The action types are free, half, full and reaction.  Characters normally can do many free actions as makes sense (short conversations, resist poisons, some psychic powers), 2 half actions or one full action and 1 reaction. 

Each type of action that starts on page 238 can only be done once and tells what type of action it is.

For example you could Aim(half action) then Delay(half action) while telling your comrade to let the enemy come to you (free action), then dodge(reaction) an attack.

Okay!  So I have dropped a ton of hooks.  Some action will be occurring shortly once we finish up with Bron and Sarvus.  Also any other specific questions or clarification anyone might have.

Just to be clear that guy with the autogun is dying of blood loss.

In the meantime, lets go over what ventures you guys are most interested in, then I can drop a few specific ones, we can do some acquisitions and get this show on the road.

Also I have been working on several different scenes at once so if I miss something please remind me.

Yes, the guy with the knife threw one at Blightfang but is still kicking.  His options right now is try and kill the two of you solo or run so guess which he is likely to try?

The guy with the autogun Bron just tore off a large hunk of his face, mostly his nose, and he collapsed to the ground unconscious and bleeding.  So he wont be alive for long.  Bleeding means there is a 10% chance per round you die.  So major blood loss not like a flesh wound.

A TON of hooks to be certain :-0. There has to be at least a dozen. That is a large degree of freedom to be sure.

This is my signature. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

This is my waifu, this is my gun. This one's for fighting, this ones for fun.

And I'm blind to all of them! XD Seriously.
I'll enjoy bopping into my novice navigator's personal life though since he's under my care \o/
And then funtime in spending map charts with other Navigators!

Say, is there anyway I can coax(?) more information out? What skill is that related to? Something like a friendly-chat thing. Do I have a skill like that?

Ohhkay.  Well obviously I was not posting for some time, do not want this to die if I can help it.  I will try to post even if I do not have time for a full rundown.

For now Sarvus and Bron are going to uncover a little more info but everyone should think about what kind of endeavors you all want to work towards.  Literally any direction can have something interesting.
