OK people this is now a thread that is dead. I have killed it. It is a dead thread.

If you want to keep up with whats going on go to this thread instead.

If a mod could please delete this thread, or proform an Exterminatus or whatever it is you do, I'd be much obliged.

I believe I've told other people this before, but Stargate seems like it would work much better using the Kill Team rules out of the 4th edition rulebook than using the normal 40k rules.

Just a couple of things off the top of my head.

Why does the P90 out-range the M16? I'll give it better AP, but it should have less range and equal strength. Decrease the range and make it rapid fire or template assault 2.

M60 should not outclass a heavy bolter. Period. A heavy bolter is like an M2 heavy machinegun firing SLAP rounds...or better yet, an XM25 on full auto...not an M60.

Why does a C4 charge have a range of 18"? What is that representing? Are you saying you can throw a block of C4 further than a pistol can fire?

Keep it up though, I know plenty of people who love SG1 and wouldn't mind playing tabletop with it.

Sad face... Thread jacked. =[

We should try to keep it to one post and collaborate on one, then post the final result in another new one for people to look at. Check out my post, I mentioned a plan of action we should take to avoid being thread jacked. We can use a bunch of the profiles you've created, plus a bunch of the ideas and profiles Ive made into one thread, pound out the final result and show off OUR finished product.

That way we dont get this

I believe I've told other people this before, but Stargate seems like it would work much better using the Kill Team rules out of the 4th edition rulebook than using the normal 40k rules.

Thus the reason for not reposting a very similar thread. People wont have to comment on both and progress wont be made.

Thanks for the comments guys.

@AnomanderRake - Originally I had kinda planned for these armies to be played in the same manner as 40k but only against each other. See due to the limited squad and wargear options i dont think they would be very competitive against regular 40k armies. So they should be playable by 40k rules, but just a step outside the regular game. I had also envisioned a Kill team varient of some squads, i.e SG teams with boosted stats and a bucket load of wargear options, a bit like kill team.

@ForgottenRealm - Firstly: the P90 out ranges the M16 because of a typing error... , but why though would it be template weapon?
- Secondly: As I stated before this was intended to be a step outside the regular game, so when in reality an M60 would never out class a Heavy Bolter, it does outclass a heavy bolter though due to the fact it isnt supposed to be compared to hb. This is also true of most of the weapon stats i comeup with, hence some of the seemingly overpowered weapons. I realise though that should this list ever go up against a proper 40k army it would get a little hinky. Maybe changing its stats to match a heavy stubber would better suit it?
-Third: The 18" range of the C4 was to represent the fact that it placed and then detonated from a distance. At the time I didnt think it was necessary though to write up a special rule for its use so i just increased its range and i neglected to mention the fact on its wargear bio. I do however like the idea of hurling a block of C4 and hoping for the best becuse you pistol is getting you nowhere, The finished product will have a detailed explanations explaining everything (hopefully).

@xSoulgrinderx - Ah im sorry i threadjacked you. You are right though it would have been much eaiser and a lot less messier to just keep it one thread and since yours was here first may as well use it although im unsure of how well we would be able to merge them. I would also very much enjoy collaborating with you.

Copy your OP onto my thread, then clear this thread and put delete as the title. That way a MOD can close it or at least lock it. Thanks. I posted a new bunch of info, so feel free to check it out and post your stuff there =]
