Commander Seric: It is quite easy to persuade a drunk to sign some papers once he has had a good many drinks.

Yes, tank I and tank III still need gunners (and tank III needs a driver too).

He wants to be a SWO if there is any room left(make sure to give him Plasma )

Ask your friend if he fancies being a gunner or driver of one of the Catachan 22nd mighty Leman Russ tanks...

Ok, it just seemed weird calling it "training" if it is just the first battle. Training would seem to imply a mock battle preparing for the real thing.

131-Ovr. Purple-This is proper training trooper. Everyone gets live rounds and the commissars get double ammo.

Commander Seric: Oh, I see. I better get Tazz to put some ammunition in the tank then...

And a sniper on the roof...

Commander Seric: I think you will have to ask the Marshall about that, trooper, I'm not sure if that is standard practice...
I could see if I can have a stormbolter or heavy stubber mounted for you? Though I assume that will not be a satisfactory substitute for your sniper.

Perhaps. But I would prefer my sniper rifle. But damn, that is a good idea.

Commander Seric: Marshal Larkin, sir, I would like to bring to your attention the fact that SWO Sam would like to snipe from the top of my tank if at all possible. If that is not possible, could he be the tanks pintle gunner (firing the stormbolter or heavy stubber) if he so chooses?
Sam, I was wandering, would you be willing to transfer to a gunner position? Me and Luna both would like to stay as far away as we can from close combat, and having a former sniper might help to pick off all the heretics with powerfists before they get to the tank.
So, Marshall, could Sam be transferred to the Emperor's Honour as gunner if he chooses instead? West would go to tank I, since I doubt a sniper would want to be in a tank that is tank shocking!

and of course, what would you be willing to do, Sam?

Maybe you could award it to a sentinel pilot who does exceptional in the first battle? or just the most exceptional trooper from the first battle?

if theres a tank place not taken sir!? tropper wolfhead. gimi something to shoot, or drive, something big.

Commander Seric: Both the driver and gunner positions are open on tank III, so you can probably take one of those.

Sigmund reporting....

would like an up close and personal role with things that go boom!

so either a demolition charge a melta or a steel beast to crush anything in our way...

other wise I have no objection to whipping the penal dregs into a semblance of catachan valor and discipline... or let them die trying!

Sigmund, would you like to commandeer a tank? a demolisher with a nice short range exploding gun and big metal tracks

Gimme!!!

tha' be right up me ally!

Okay commander, it will be your choice of crew- so make sure you look out for recruits you may want to join - you need a gunner and a driver, also you need a name for your vehicle

COmmander seric- If sam wants to change, this will be his last re-assignment. a 4th reassignment will be treated as wasting of regimental resources on constant changing. so if he wants it, he must make sure he doesnt want to switch.
We will not have pintle mounts, far to risky, so if you want him to gun, i will transfer your gunner to sigmund.

COmmander sigmund, i have transferred gunner west (goes by the name tazz) to your gun, his aim is true with a demolisher cannon.

Private Schrute reporting for duty! If a gunner spot on a demolisher is still open I'd be happy to take it.

I demand you give me a tank gun or driver posting! im a vett kid so you better take me. will look good on my honner(signiture) so whats it to be lad? Driver or gunner.

Demands, driver, and 'lad' is that any way to address the marshall, is there ooing to be a need to call in the the regimental commisar? if you had checked the regimental report you would see that you report to Cmmdr Arkanian of the Catachan Bell.

I think you better take the driving seat, ain't no better gunner than a Schrute. My Brother Mose could blow a commisars hat off with a demolisher round...'course that was what got him executed in the end...but still the point stands.

COmmander sigmund, i have filled your vehicle with my reccomendations, if you want it changing , let me know, and Schrute, if you try and shoot our commisar you will find yourself in a penal squad quicker than you can say emperor, if you don't end up the same way as your brother that is, so aim true gunner!

Fine, i apolgise for my outbust 'comander'. i just really would like a tank possition..after my last one...i was kicked from for unstanded procedure. it worked though.

I am not your commander, sigmund is your commander, i am your marshall. report over to the regimental report to check the roster

http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/365557.page#2744301

Don't you worry sir I intend to earn back the family honour by killing me some xenos filth!

We now have a tank league- check out the report thread

I'm not on the roster sir.

Corrected pilot.

131-Ovr. Purple-Ahh good plenty of possible recruits for the penal squad.

Commander Seric: Good, the Emperor's Honour will prove itself in our first battle!
Still need a gunner though, SWO Sam, do you want to be the gunner for the Emperor's Honour, the only sensible tank in the regiment?

Overseer Purple, I have to agree, it seems like the crew of the Marshal's Wrath would love to join your squad!
