hey folks! I am considering running a toyhammer RPG where YOU are the possession of a nerd who wakes up one day to find you lot rampaging about the house
all factions are availeble but there may be a player limit.
so! I am exited! this is the first internet RP I will be running, hope it's popular.
(NOTE: some importent battles ARE decided with dice)
there will be only five SM chapters. (the groups have banded together in a crusade led by, --insert experienced player such as WARORK, darkvoid, gorskar,
Lord Harrab Scrazza Ect. here-- the chapter will be chosen by the force commanders (five of them. if you would like to be a force commander the five slots are limited so grab them quick) just one thing. no Blood Angels or White Scars. At all.
the sisters of battle (if there are players) will we led by a cannoness
another thing: it would please be helpful if the overall army commanders were fairly experienced players
rules:
1:you may not kill another persons charachter or major NPCs. (unless you are allowed to.)
2:you will start in a predesignated room.
3: there is only one faction leader for each group and so the first players will get the most flexibility
4: Dakka is encouraged
5: act like your faction. if you are a space marine (this means you black templar) dont go getting buddy buddy with the xenos
6: it would be appreciated if the faction leaders were played by experienced role-players
7: the dogs are invincible anti-mini machines (no killing them they are going to be named after my real dogs).
8: if you die you are welcome to return as another character.
9:all factions must submit to the almighty nerd!
10: the environment has consequences. Example: someone meltas my TV antenne. I go berserk
11: I play the nerd-god.
12:no godding (but hey, its me. so minor godding is OK)
13: no blowing up people (normal sized ones)
14: the faction leaders have the privilege to choose their factions starting room.
15: each post must be 100 words or more (more is better)
16: one titan of the scout class per faction if they have the unit.
17: rules are meant to be bent. a lot.

I am both selfish and chaotic. I value self-gratification and control; I want to have things my way, preferably now. At best, I'm entertaining and surprising; at worst, I'm hedonistic and violent.
hmmm... as amusing as that sounds I prefer just standard 40k minis.

I could ad Ambush Valley, Ambush Ally or Force on Force. (I think that too many factions will be confusing.)

hmm...should I just use wargame factions or stuff like green plastisc and legos as well?

acually I think i will just stick with 40k (i guess if no one shows any intrest I will delete it :( )

*sigh* everyone has done nothing but say it should be different.
let me point it out to you that this is a 40k thing. not a 'lego wars' it would just be too hard to get into character for everyone concerned, there would be too many factions and the whole thing would tangle up and die

Tali'Zorah: I appreciate what you're doing here, Shepard.
Commander Shepard: Well, I care deeply about the quarian people.
Tali'Zorah: It's good to be back on the Normandy.
Commander Shepard: Let me know if it's too quiet for you to sleep, and I'll find you someplace louder.
Tali'Zorah: Hmm.
Garrus Vakarian: Uh, I was there when you two had your thing, remember? Just get a room and work it out.
(it was joke referring to that eldar girl you 'saved')

Meh.. maybe. How would combat work? If these are actual models that have "come to life", then how would you determine strength? Would guns actually work? You know.. simple things like that.
Anyway, I am so calling dibs on Straken and lots of Imperial Guard with a CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT load of shenanigans.
A metal Commissar Yarrick is left alone in a bedroom, surrounded by Orks and backed up by Guardsmen in a clear diorama of the defense of Hades Hive. He slowly flexes until he breaks free of his pose and begins pacing. Wha..where am I? This place looks...Unsettling.
He looks around at the orks and guardsmen, who are also trying to move. He lifts his power klaw in to the air and shouts. To me, heroes! Cleanse this...err...Destroy the orkoid stain! Purge them from the face of this world!
The surrounding models break free and lasfire pours in to the Ork models, causing them to break and melt. Yarrick strides through their lines, rounds bursting from his Storm bolter and crushing them with his klaw. Keep firing! Do not retreat!
The orks yell and fall back. To prevent escape, Yarrik breaks the leg of a giant table. It collapses and blocks of the door. A stray lasbolt hits the rug and it catches fire. The orks scream and melt, before the Guardsmen are rocked by sudden tremours and a sound like thunder in the distant becomes louder. The door bursts open, and a giant humanoid rushes in. Seeing the fire and broken table, he contorts with rage. FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-
