*twiddling thumbs anxiously*
We gonna blow some stuff up yeah?

**Irishpeacockz**

I am, dont know about you.

**Sgt. Vanden**

If by that you mean to try and blow up Dorn's Shield, I will encourage you.
"Go Irish, you can do it, we all don't have that mild disbelief that you can do that!"

**Irishpeacockz**

I will, but i will have friends next time

**Sgt. Vanden**

Why does that scare me? Please don't say you allied with the Necrons...

**Drakka77**

I thought Necrons rarely allied since they are a kill all life kind of race.

**Irishpeacockz**

Haha you clearly haven't met Kharne's necrons.

**Sgt. Vanden**

So is that a yes?

Well feth.

**Irishpeacockz**

You will find out soon

**Kharne the Befriender**

Good, everyone is distracted by Wyrms...

Time to pull off a Kharne

Drakka, you are innocent to my Necrons, they are a greater evil then even the Maynarkh

Damn Ezra, great piece

**Sgt_Smudge**

Oh, VERY nice - I am interested to see how this works out!

**2BlackJack1**

You are yet to cease amazing me Ezra. Well done.

**Kharne the Befriender**

DESPAIR Imperials

**2BlackJack1**

Interesting piece Kharne. Good thing I'm not going to be Priority #1.

Also, a progress update for the Gargant Event: I've been busy these last few days, so not much tangible work has been done. However, I have all the rolls I need, and am factoring in modifiers. Some of you will probably be grateful for that. Tomorrow and after that will be more open for me, so I can begin writing more on the event. For now, I'll be thinking about how the event goes down, and things like that.

**Bobthehero**

All we need is Julius and a bunch of ram happy Black Templar and we can have us a nice CoF 1 bbq

**Drakka77**

Oh lordy Necrons are on the move on Cogger. Cogger is definitely forming into a major battlefield.

**Irishpeacockz**

More than you know Drakka

Who doesn't?

**Ezra Tyrius**

They make quite the pair, don't they?

Glad to hear you guys still enjoy my work

**Irishpeacockz**

There is one thing that I am conscious about in my writing and my factions that I would like to get a few opinions on and that is the characters, specifically the naming of them. I realise that one should probably limit the amount of characters the he/she writes for just to avoid confusion yet in the new piece I am writing I find myself naming quite a few which I doubt people will remember them all. Thing is I do not want to refer to them as the marine or the apostle. So should I just keep naming my dudes or ?

**2BlackJack1**

Something that helps is our Crion Index for key characters. It's certainly helped me on more than a few occasions already. So, perhaps you can PM Chazz a general description of the characters to help people if they get lost.

**Irishpeacockz**

Thing is they arent really key characters, for instance 7 is the sacred number for Nurgle so Garathal has 7 bodyguards which I wanna name but that is seven names for characters which at most maybe two or three might get soem showing unless gak goes down and all seven are required, still though the index is a good suggestion.

**Sgt_Smudge**

Give a name, and when you can either reuse the same character for certain moments (ie, Guard 1 is always present in bodyguard scenes and is the only one who speaks etc) or just go ahead with the naming, but don't flesh out each guy.

I used names for practically each marine in my Strikeforce Praetoria in CoF1 (actually using the name the models themselves had), but didn't expect people to recognise the character.

... I'm totally not a cheapskate by naming the Remnants' two main characters 'The Sorcerer' and 'The Commander', honest

(to be fair, they're both exiles who would rather forget about their respective pasts, so it makes sense that they don't want to use their real names

)

Isn't that the whole Remnant thing though? Nobody uses names because only their title is worth remembering?
