Joining. Looks Good.

[adwarf]

I am willing to play.

[forsaken1111]

I'll add you to the roster. Once we've got a full compliment of people we'll sort out the best time to start. I've got classes starting in another week so my Mondays-Tuesdays will be booked, and I've already got a game on Friday.

I've acquired the books and I'm doing a bit of research now. I looked over your houserules and found nothing objectionable.

I'm not as thoroughly familiar with the system as I'd like but I am reading them now. It may take some time before I'm entirely comfortable with the system.

[Johnfalcon99977]

Genning a Character right now, but I am stuck on the stats part. Mostly because I only roughly know what 33% of them are, I can guess what 33% of they mean but don't know what they do, and I don't know Jack shit about the other 34%.

Edit: But I managed to gen a Mary Sue!
She appears to be a normal teenager except she dresses like a mad scientist pirate, her eyes can mesmerize men and her hair is neon-green and full of neon-colored extensions, but secretly she is actually a half-xenomorph.
She is a goddess cast down to earth to become mortal megalomaniac and she will fight her enemies with the power to dodge bullets or to call for a precision air-strike.
Her friends and enemies call her Peacelover Starlightriver!
Her constant companion is a over-analytical enslaved demon who is also her bondage slave.
Her favored weapon is a poisoned acidic minigun which will cut through any material.

[Yoink]

Well, I don't know all of them, but there's Weapon Skill, Ballistic Skill, Strength, Toughness, Agility, Perception.
I don't know the other two, but I believe Fel is something like Charisma... Oh an WP is -probably- Willpower. *shrug*

[Johnfalcon99977]

Can someone also explain to me Dark Hersey Quriks, Mementos, Imperial Divinations, and Carrer Mementos to me?

Edit: Never Mind '>.>

[forsaken1111]

My intention is to make a capable noble-born type who can lead the team if such is possible. I still have a lot to read.

[Ahra]

an small tip, never insult an sniper,
 glow is in the same dark heresy as i am and i did that.
newsmuffin gave the fucker a free shot at me for each insult.

[scriver]

I went ahead and genned a character while waiting to be in'd. It's not complete yet, though, because I don't know which stats are "characteristics" and gets the +5. Also, since divination doesn't matter, I assume I should subtract the +1 fate I got from it. Anything else before I finalize it?

I'm also thinking of buying the "Navigator" merit, since I already have a lot of piloting skills, but I'd have to count points and such and it's way too late to do math at this point, I'm hardly staying awake as it is. What are those "lineages" you have to choose between, though?

edit: also, I thought of calling him Marty because of the eyes I genned... Violet eyes never sat well with me. But I guess it's some kind of side-effect of void bornery?

[Glowcat]

I'm currently busy with a game, but quickly:

I'm in. Haven't played either Rouge Trader nor any 40K before, though, but it seems very interesting.

In

Joining. Looks Good.

In

I am willing to play.

Game is full, but you'll get first place if somebody has to leave.

Hold a slot for me

You realize that I'm currently in a game you were supposed to show up for, right? I'd rather not take on a player who'll just disappear without saying a thing.

[Yoink]

Oh, and my character's okay, Glowcat?

[scriver]

I'm not sure you've submitted one yet?

[Yoink]

Oh, I PMed it. I'm special... But I'll post it here if I'm supposed to.
I just needed help working out how to make a character.

[Glowcat]

Okay I've gone over the characters so far.

Yoink is fine

scriver and Falcon may really want to use the Point Buy method, as your characteristic rolls are horrible.
