I read that. My question wasn't "Can we," it was "Why?"Tyyr wrote:Cpl Kendall wrote:Yup.Lighthawk wrote:3) Can we start at a higher level perhaps?
IDK, it just seems like we're cutting ourselves out of part of the game. I won't make a stink if that's the consensus, though.Tyyr wrote:Why not?
We've been slogging through the low levels with our Inquisition characters. Why not start off a bit higher this next time? Some somewhat experienced guardsmen instead of blank recruits.
I'm leaning towards bikes but animals would be easier to look after. Animals would also limit the amount of tech use required.Mikey wrote:Anyhoo, I thought that a decent scenario would be after a particularly rough campaign for the Chem Dogs, with only a fragment of the regiment left intact. The traditional company and squad structure would have been abandoned for the sake of survival - thus, different types of guardsmen/specialists would be thrown together. It would explain/make available the commissar, the arbites (a judge overseeing the punishment of the convicts,) ogryns (they'll seek out and just about worship a commissar,) regular grunts, support weapon troops, rough riders, and special weapons troops (snipers or somesuch.)
The Lexicanum entry mentions that typical support weapons for the Chem Dogs are flamers and heavy bolters - obviously things like heavy bolters wouldn't be available at the start, but that's easily explained by them being lost due to the pasting the regiment took. An ongoing theme would probably be trying to steal/salvage/kill someone then steal kit.
Would rough riders be animal-mounted, or would they be on bikes?
Well I intend to start at a level where we can get a character in with Tech-Use, otherwise things will go pear shaped at some point cause nothing can get fixed. So for me thats the concern, various careers get it at various points.IDK, it just seems like we're cutting ourselves out of part of the game. I won't make a stink if that's the consensus, though.
