If you could somehow remove that embryo, and cut off all communication with the brood mind for an extended period of time, I'm not sure what's keeping that guy loyal to the 'stealers. Of course, that involves removing something latched to you, and becomes a physical attachment to you, and I assume he'd always be susceptible to the brood mind's influence.
Even that is a big shot in the dark, as I don't know if that would even work, if you could pull it off.

Honour be damned: He has 5-8 thousand civilians living on his ship, no way he and his crew are getting involved in any ship to ship combat and risking those colonists. He's essentially a pseudo politician and merchant, capable of fending off advances, not waging war.
If he's already working, he may feel obliged to assist. Maybe.
So does that mean I'm not allowed to come out of warp yet? 'Cause I really wanted to do it now... I guess maybe I'll just go sulk in the corner then...
In the politest way possible, it would be incredibly inconvenient from a writing POV right at this very moment. You've got a governor and an investigation team literally mid-conversation. I'm then supposed to land and investigate a mildly suspicious regiment.
As I just explained, if a warband of Orks pops up in the middle of that phone call, I am simply not coming down there, and it renders the last week or so of their travelling / planning pointless. I don't have an army, there's nothing I can contribute to the fight, and I'm not going to park my big shiny space car outside the planet full of Orks.
By all means come over, it's not a matter of "allowed". I'm not being mean by saying "I'm out if you do." It's the truth of what would happen. Fairfax is not an imperial force, and has no obligation to stay. Catching both parties unaware would be different. I guess he might feel the urge if he meets someone on planet who isn't a dick.
I really do apologise for the speed of my writing, but the last few back and forth posts have been from the same afternoon in Trisburg airspace, in some cases inside an hour. If your ship can travel across a sector inside the time it takes for someone to answer the vox, we have slight chronological issues.

If you want something to write about, Lazzamore, you could make up a daemon invasion on your ship that you repulse, just for the sake of writing something. Character building (as much as you can for an ork), action, and you have something to do in the meantime. It seems like a fair compromise to me.

Well, I won't post it tonight after all. But I must confess I'm getting tired of being shooed away from planets, sorry I didn't realize just what Zombaz' coming would incur. Perhaps I'll find a good time to insert my forces tomorrow? I don't know, how long do you guys wait while travelling between planets? @2BJ1: Yeah, that's a good idea! I might do that, thanks!

Post by: Buttery Commissar
I'm not trying to shoo you away... If what I'm saying doesn't make sense, I'm really sorry.
But picture how it is from my side of things, that I've spent the last week writing, and then I have to leave and junk the idea and of my draft posts if you land before I get to finish landing.
(I was writing hellish slow up until now, and keeping drafts because I was out there on my own without anyone waiting on me)
I'm the only writer who 110% cannot actually fight you.
Edit: Whoops, that's a higher % than intended.
To clarify, I was set a largely political mission because I don't have an armed force (I have a small and well meaning, but terrible PDF regiment, and one commissar). Dropping Orks in the middle of it pretty much blocks that, and runs me off the planet.
Edit2: I'll try and expedite what I was doing, get enough proof that we can report back regarding the cult. After that I can hopefully just bail, and find something quieter.
Problem is, Marcus and Marcus giving the troops a day off.
Guess I'll try my luck on rolling what we can do.

93655
Post by: Buttery Commissar
Well, if Fairfax finds evidence of the cult, he will contact anyone nearby.
If he doesn't, for whatever reasons, he likely couldn't give a feth what happens to Trisburg, but may let you know as he leaves.
That said, who would such requests be directed to?
71547
Post by: Sgt_Smudge
Yeah, the main reason Buttery's been tasked to Trisburg is that it's within Imperial lines, and a relatively safe holding. If forces want to invade past that Imperial line without first establishing a base of their their own nearby, it's very hard to actually attack. (Seriously, there are pretty big negative modifiers attached!)
Buttery, are you referring to who to contact if you find the Genestealers? If so, Crusade Command is logical, but you might have other plans and choose to contact another force first so that CC don't realise how big of a problem it is. Also, if you let CC know, and an Inquisitor is told (or certain Space Marine chapters) Trisburg might even be considered for Exterminatus.

Post by: Buttery Commissar
I was asking Jhe, but that was very helpful, thank you!
Realistically? I would probably make sure I was out of range of being blown to splinters before I told anyone, truth be told.
Hey guys, I'm a non military person who just visited a planet full of genestealers with my ship of thousands of colonists, that travels all over the universe, and did I mention I went down there in person? Guys? What's that growing red light?
 Of course that's paranoia. It'd be a very short crusade if CC nuked everyone who looked at a threat closely.
As an aside, I haven't actually decided that the Ordos Chronos are on the Guinea. Fairfax is just very thorough, and wanted to scare the nosy commissar away.
Curious, did his threat come across as unpleasant as I intended? It was hard to articulate what I was thinking, in terms of a biological fingerprint.

To contact my command. Its SGT Tangir as karaks equiry who will fast track you to getting stuff done quick and dispatched.
Basicaly its like going via executive secretary over the switch board.Tangir is a SGT but quite ranking vs the norm. Nearer honour guard rank
Chaplsim vargos willl lead any force sent.

Hands up.., I know nothing about Astartes chain of command, if I'm honest.
I started 40K on IG, never learned Space Marines, so all I know are how to visually distinguish the ranks (skulls, laurels, etc), not who can order who.
Though if any of your guys makes it over, the poor seneschal may have to invest in a gag for the commissar. Assuming he survives meeting the governor.

As far as naming goes, I used this http://www.rirekon.com/namegen.php for Scion names, and some arabic name generator for Tallarns. According to their Codex, Scions get mind wiped soon after their training starts, and their names are changed to some High Gothic name of a famous Scion, however the process isn't perfect and some Scions regain some of their memories, such is the case for Riley, who took back his pre-Scion name. The Codex mentions this isn't rare, so I'll probably roll out more Scions with Low-Gothic/more comon names.

Selka is an IKEA lamp. His homeworld is "Lorindech" which is short for "Colour Index Catalogue".

Most of my names were just on the spot. Abram sounds commanding enough (slightly like Abraham, a small nod to Lincoln in its own way) Detta is close to Vendetta, and the others were also to vary up the name list. No reason for Vayden, Lars, or Derek as names. Severus (first name of Vayden) sounds nice with Vayden, and nods to the Harry Potter series.
Falkon was because my friend wanted me to name someone that. (I'm trying to get him a power fist, so he can literally do Falkon Punches  )
Lastly, Archarus was made because it is similar to arachnid, and Achilles, both of which can be intimidating, and arachnids have their one connotations.
Hope you feel better BC, ear infections suck. (Had a middle and inner ear infection last summer, in the same ear.) You have my sympathy for that, and I wish you a speedy recovery.

True, you could still bring in reinforcements, nothing says Detta has to leave the Ultramarines if he gets some more bodies. We can still fight together, you'd just be able to fight on your own if need be.

Criminal justice. Glad to see I'm not the only one taking an interest in law enforcement, to some extent.
Also, when are we going to find a way to put those nobles in the ground? I would very much like to see that we don't forget about those gakbags, and would like even more to introduce them to an Eviscerator. Of course, that's a lot of paperwork, and we already settled on burning the place down.

Jhe, I've got to use my astropaths for a short task (scanning the loaned guards) then I will send the trading ship for fancy mushrooms.
My lack of having read the whole CoF has caught up with me, as as a roll result, the governor wants something and I have no idea what that particular item actually is.

He wants an item from a specific planet, which isn't on the map, so I'm assuming it's a homeworld for one of the factions.
Temptation to just shoot him is quite high. But Faurfax is a rogue trader, employing connections should be his bag.

I was thinking of doing both because we don't have that many enemies, and just doing an enemy isn't the most fun, since there isn't any cooperation between forces. At least, there isn't much beyond the odd mention of each other and a very, very shaky trade deal or something.

I'm not taking Marcus off Smudge, but he does have to be in some of my scenes, which takes a bit more thought than usual.
Frankly I'm going to have half the meeting summed up in third person after, because the sheer length of dialogue required to get through longer negotiations with a lunatic would be more than I could write.

I really don't want to miss out on fighting the hybrids, seeing as how my Histans have been crippled by them since day one. However, like WK said, I don't know how we could clear out the orks before we are redeployed.

Just to let you know, Rakszan would not be pleased for the news of Kageros transferring the Virus Bomb to the Iron Warrioirs, as this was the act of support all sort of self-proclaimed Gods. And you should know Rakszan was the victim of blind fanaticism, which means he would never tolerate such actions. And bear in mind that Rakszan was not the leader of the entire Fleet, so the ultimate decision must be made via meeting.
It was hinted that the majority of Investigation Taskforce was the decedents of Interex, so don't expect them to fully co-operate with Kageros once they know the what-about of the Virus Bomb. Yeah, short-term agreement of searching the C'Tan could be made, but the Force would leave the Kageros domain once the C'Tan was captured and never return. They have better things to do, like kicking Chaos' ass.
The Imperium, on the other hand, was another matter. While the Imperium worshiped the Emepror as God, Rakszan knew that the Emperor didn't wish everyone worship anything as Gods. And the Taskforce knew better that they should not anger the Imperium in the long run. Therefore, as long as the Imperium didn't declare war with them, minimum co-operation could be tolerated.
The Eldar? Dark Eldars would be kill when they are spotted. The normal Eldars would not be welcomed and avoid at all cost, for the Taskforce fear the manipulation of Eldar would doom the Fleet. However, they would fight them to death if the Eldar insisted on eliminating the Taskforce.
Tau? I am not sure...

A Warhost is basically the Eldar equivalent of a taskforce or Strikeforce sent to an area for a specific purpose. In this case their primary goal is to eliminate Archarus of the Iron Warriors. They're indifferent to the bulk of the Imperial Forces, and they're shying away from the Necrons

Imagine you have 2 halves of the New Order. We will call those halves Sylus and Ryus.
The Ryus half is: plotting, manipulative, scheming, negotiative. The Hassassins belong here.
The Sylus half is: honourable, steadfast, righteous. The "Court" system belongs here (Judges, Jury, Executioner)
The Ryus half is considered heretical bar the Hassassins. The Ryus half died with Ryus above Fahren.
