Sorry for not responding earlier-
I'd be happy to play wherever I am needed, be it Chaos or Orks if that's going to get off the ground.

Chaos(or Ork) name: Gnarlwock the Balding

Hrm...I'm set up as Devourer currently....

And if possible I'd like to be a Raider instead.

We'll be the Black Legion, and I'll be Barathrum the Twisted.

referee's notes
@Drk_Oblitr8r, Nightwatch: Thanks very much!

@I_S, t_f: please pick character names for your guys.

So far, I am thinking of TeamS as more of a replacement for StratS than an alternative. It does a lot of things much better, or at least I hope it will. What it really needs are some more players.

I'm actually pretty stoked to see how this turns out It would be nice though to get 4 full teams if possible.

Can we just clarify exactly what Inquisitor_Syphonius is doing here? I don't think we'll need 2 medics just yet.

As an IG Leader, do I also have Sniper?

Your a medievac unit then?

Maybe john intended to give you 2 medics to cure your psyker from its emo like self-cutting.....

Emperors Faithful wrote:As an IG Leader, do I also have Sniper?

I think so. Doesnt make you a Vindicare tough.

"Bon Skrott" as a name

He's on your team, because I thought he'd help

I thought double skills would be interesting. If you don't want him, the SM will gladly take him as our Apothecary.

Yes, per example on p.1

noted.

No, I just want to know if he's picked that role or if you are assigning them.

I initially assigned him (per his note about IG Medic), but if he doesn't want to play, that's OK.

I think we can freeze teams, and expect to see a new thread for the actual game pope up tomorrow..

BTW, I PM'd him to ask for his name, and as IG Team Leader, you might want to ping him as well...

I'll PM all IG members, ask them to review their choices, work out battle plan ect.

I should probably also set a "deadline" for when I interevene on their behalf as Leader.

That sounds like a pretty good Idea

Quiet you! Get back to scrubbing those boots with the Regimental Toothbrush!

How about a battle plan for us too?

Righteous zeal gets you far, but maybe we could have a strategy ?

The servants of the Emperor need no such strategy.

tho we do have secure "PM" radio, you know...

TY, Manchu

John, your link redirects to this thread.

GAME ONE HAS STARTED!

Do we all get Sniper from the Crumbling tower?

2. CRUMBLING TOWER (+S)
+S = gain Sniper (A1 adjacent)

Yes, you certainly do!

Of course, once you leave the Tower, you no longer have the benefit from being able to Snipe from it's height.

So, can I use my leader ability to make someone use their sniper attack?

Also, I only get to use one ability a day, don't I?

Yes, you could order somebody to make a Sniper attack. Note that, in this case, you have the same effect by making a Sniper attack of your own, because you *all* gain Sniper by being in the Tower.

Also yes, you only get one ability (action) per day.

True, but why do something if I can make someone else work twice as hard?

Spoken like a true Manager.

I'm not sure if I'm understanding what exactly we do with the NPC's....Would it then come under control of leader? or just kind of hang out on board?

Yeah, the Leader simply has the NPC take an action, tho I'm not opposed if another teammate has the NPC take an action.
