Is it possible to set up a multiple answer poll, or one where you can change your answer? Because I want to vote for Chaos, but I am the only one, and then orks will lose because I didn't vote for them and Space marines have numbers on their side...

I just checked with a topic I made. The button is on the bottom right, in same place as the "Mark Unread" button.

I vote for Marines or IG.

Thanks.

Pick one of them

EDIT: Ok polls up, I left out Necrons and Tyranids as they don't talk much and tend to be ruled over by one person and I don't like GMing with (what appears to be) absoulte power over everything (like C'tan or Hive Tyrants)

IG, though Chaos could be fun too.

EDIT: Cultist/heretic guardsmen Chaos, not Chaos Marines, that is. Oh well, it doesn't matter anymore.

Looks like we are Imperial Guards.

I'll get my torch, it'll be more use than a lasgun.

Do we take them from the army list, or improvise?

Squad: Storm Troopers, "Spearhead"; 10 Soldiers, 1 Officer w/Power Sword+Plasma Pistol
Officer Name: Hal Axium
Backstory: One of many Storm Trooper squads trained to fight and die in the spearheads of many attacks. Hal's predecessor, an extremely unimaginative man, thus named his squad "Spearhead."

Hal's team is comprised of veterans from as many as 4 campaigns, all remnants of now-destroyed squads. Hal takes pride in his creative solutions to plans, claiming that he can make it through any combat situation with a stick, a laspistol with half of a clip, and a hamster. Disputed records indicate that he has done this at least once.

As I say, I only really have fleeting contact with WH40k so I can't offer specifics, but if we are just picking a name then I always named my dawn of war army RAM's Raiders, lets see if I can remember the colour scheme...

As for back story, could I be a naive young guardsman from Patria Minor. Who, scared by the prospect of aliens rampaging across their homeworld, joined the guards to protect it? A member of an important enough family to be given a position as an officer but not particularly important to them as I am not set to inherit the business or any similar agricultural aristocracy matters...

Oh, and a squad of new recruits, with polished lasrifles, spotless uniforms, and wither a lot of luck or a lot of grief in the near future, probably both...

Squad: 13th Rough Riders "Warp's Angles"; 8 rough riders, 1 sergeant with bolt pistol and hunting lance.
Officer (PC) Name: Marcus Rodgers.
Background: Marcus heads one of the few (few being relative) of the rough riders that occupy Patria Major. Because of the lack of actual horses on Patria, the squad elected to use motorcycles (do the IG have Attack Bike squads?) instead. it's rumored that Mark's personal bike was taken from a Ork Biker Nob, the head of whom is mounted on the front.

Can I be either a grunt in someone else's squad or a scout of some kind? If not, I'll just go with a basic, lasgun and flack jacket squad named Garrison Squad 23 or something. As for character name, Lucas Derickson.
