Well, I'm kind of reluctant in adding a ogryn. I would have to add some ogryn proof weapons then.

Also, notice that you have to roleplay as a satient rock, both in resistance and intelligent.

I've always thought the guardsmen were cool, but I don't know a lot about this system or enough about the universe. If someone could let me know what I'd have to research I might want in! Assuming you'd be fine with a warhammer noob joining.

edit: scratch that I definitely want in. Just let me know if there's anything I should read up on!

As someone also playing the DnD and knows jack shit about the universe but kinda the system , I found this video good for learning about the Imperial Guard (just listened to it while playing a round of CM) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bbLdATQ41lQ

And to learn the system i'd suggest just reading the Only War rulebook that is in the post at the start under the roll20 link.

Is OK to not know the lore. IC we are from a frontier world so it's not a problem to know about the world.

The corebook should have all the basic lore to feel a fish out of the .water

Okay I'm in! I'll either be a weapons specialist or a stormtrooper. Whatever works.

I'd like to play as a rifleman/scout/trapper with a Lasgun and a close-combat weapon.

Which class would you suggest for me? Weapon specialist seems the most open ended to me.

What you described is the weapons specialist.

Would it be cool if I observed this week? I just found this thread and joining tonight as a player would likely be too short notice, but I would love to watch and join the next session.

I'd like to join next time it's up! I don't have much experience with D&D at all, so it will be fun to learn playing with you guys.

I also get "Not Authorized (Incorrect Game ID or Access Token)" when I go to the roll20 link, "https://app.roll20.net/join/1362186/tQxZ6A" is that supposed to happen?

"Ok,my first turn, i shoot with my Chimera on the enemy"
*rolls 98*
"I use a fate point to reroll"
*roll 100*
"You try to shoot but the round get stuck and the chimera explodes"

It was pretty interesting, and I am honored to be the first PC to give his name for the Emperor, but I think I'm going to take a break from this. It just seems like there are two many people in one session. In two hours I got to go twice. Not saying anything bad about the game, I think Loko did a great job of incorporating new players and keeping things moving, but I think I'll wait a bit before re-rolling.

Yeah the playercount was a bit excessive, especially for an online session where it's bound to be slow. But we burned through the turns much more quickly compared to the first session and like you said Loko kept things quick and smooth and I liked that very much. Hope you can join us again!

Lots of fun, looking forward to the next session.
