Couldn't he still use them, albeit with a -10 or -20 modifier?

I think I should clarify the rule a bit. You can hold two weapons just fine, but you can't use both to attack in a single round without the Two Weapon Talents. It also mentions a -20 penalty for your secondary hand. (pg. 197)

The penalty starts at -20 even with the basic Two Weapon Talents, although further Talents can reduce this to 0.

[Ahra]

normal: either shoot or attack
two weapon: shoot and attack
?
edit nvm: found the info in the rules

Now, if I may ask, are we in Koronus, Calixis, Jericho, or that Black Crusade place?

I don't know yet. I may just put you in my own system because I don't feel like reading the entire fluff base for a sector.

...So I can modify my melee weapon for free or do I still make the Requisition check?

Since that was the last post on the last page...
And anyway, I assume I'd have to pay like 15 thrones for a can of recaf and 30 for a writing kit?

You still make a Requisition check.
Things like recaf and writing kits you get for free from the other members of your regiment, unless they decide to charge. What I meant by Amasec and Lho-Sticks was contraband, or items that an Imperial Guardsman probably wouldn't have.

I'll use a d6 to decide who has the medicae ability, unless someone buys it.
However, I don't think any career allows you to get medicae at rank 1.

I plan on picking Medicae when I get 200 XP since it's available at Outcast Scum Rank.

How does this system work with the Inquiry and Barter skills?

EDIT: -snipV2-
Why yes, I have been reading up on the Imperial Guard for this.

For Barter, you roll a test, and if you succeed, you add +5 to Requisition for this Req test. FOr each extra degree of success, you add 2 to Req. This test is taken at a -10 difficulty, as the Ministorum clerk has seen your bullshit time and time again.
Inquiry has no effect.

Sorry I haven't responded until now, I've been playing ArmA II with some B12ers.

[Phantom]

Aah! Arma2! The only game I NEVER got!

Also, for the love of the Emperor, don't make us fight 'nids or Dark Eldar. The regular flavor Eldar, Heretics, and Tau are fine to kill though.


Also, heck yeah! Time to go out on a caffeine induced rampage of song writing!

[NewsMuffin]

What's that? MORE Dark Eldar? Jeez, I thought you'd be sick of those guys by now!

Actually, I was thinking I'd start you guys off on some orks. I probably won't do normal Eldar because of Rape Potential.

I made a little pun there. Teehee.

[Glowcat]

Can we spend our starting funds?

I'd like to bring an Autopistol (75) with 100 bullets for it (5, 1 per 20) since Metallicans favor Solid Projectile guns over fancy shmancy lasers.

[Phantom]

You gonna have to do Requisition check, bro! Like Rogue Trader with 20 profit factor and no modifiers!


But you can buy Contraband with thrones, if you want.

I figure starting funds would be an exception since they represent previous events in our characters' lives. Also, my character would conceivably smuggle the items in, as my idea for her is starting to solidify into a position similar to a Rogue Trader's Seneschal with a black market focus. A position she'd put herself in just to fuel her smoking habits (but the cough is only from the factory work, she swears!).

[Phantom]

Well expect her to be scrutinized by the Vostroyan First Born.
"Hey, Hive Worlder/AdMech Worlder/Voider/Crazy Barbarian, that ain't healthy for you. At all. Now stop smoking before I dump my recaf on your lho sticks."

[NewsMuffin]

Phantom is right, you should make a Requisition check for that.
Before each mission, the Munitorum clerk makes sure you turn in your ammunition, and gives you three clips for each weapon you have. This doesn't stop you from picking up clips during the mission, though.
You can turn in your LasGun and LasPistol for an AutoGun and Autopistol if you succeed a Requisition check at +20.

You also get rebreathers for free and of Good quality if you're sent into a battlezone that will definitely have gas attacks.

Just don't expect any snuck in implants gadget boy. 

She's a Hive Worlder of course. She wouldn't entirely lying that the living conditions from factory work in Gunmetal City would be responsible for the health deterioration. From the descriptions I've read middle/lower levels you're pretty much breathing in pollution or getting lead poisoning.

On an unrelated note: Black Crusade is supposed to be coming out this month. If NewsMuffins gets a hold of it I predict many clown encounters.

My claws are rather large and grabby, if I do say so myself.
