Jaranthine's Player : As is, the first it knows that another ship is approaching it is when the docking hatch alarms sound. Until the manufactorium is up and running, the station is going to be VERY reliant on support craft to see and communicate any real distance.

Drhoz Posted March 22, 2012 Report Share Posted March 22, 2012 Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... Navigator Netzach Benetek's player has put together a quick video trailer for next session, in which they hope Jak can head down and rescue the rest of the away team. Of course, this is how they hope it will go. Minus the Tyranids, and with a successful extraction at the end of it. As GM, I'm hoping for more of a downer ending XD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drhoz Posted March 22, 2012 Report Share Posted March 22, 2012 Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... Responses to the video so far... Jak's player : You know how to grow a man's ego Olaf, that was awesome. Netzach's player : Thanks, I'm glad you liked it. You do realise next session we'll start playing "danger zone" and expect you to have everything sorted by the time the song is finished right? - no pressure Jak's player : By the by, I've looked up the vehicle rules and I can confidently say that the Aquila is going to be replaced with a Gun-cutter the next time we get to port because goddamn. Jaranthine : *Sigh* I'll add it to the acquisitions list, shall I? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're also going to need someone whose knowledge and engineering skill is a hell of a lot better than anything Mankind currently possesses at present -- or will for centuries to come.

Drhoz Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... Deathwatch is looking promising - we haven't even finished making characters yet. Chapter heraldry is currently being passed around, as we flesh out backgrounds. Olaf's character is Iron Hands chapter - mine is custom - the Scions of Fuschal. Iron Hands Devastator : HMmm - I expected more purple for the Scions of Fuchsia Scion Tac-Marine : *narrows eyes* Was that some kind of joke, Brother? Iron Hands Devastator : A joke?! I am a proud son of Manus Ferrus, I do not joke! It's bad enough I will have to put up with all this successor rabble, do not insult me any further!

Captain Obvious Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... Niven's Ringworld didn't require any alternate universe mining. They just gathered up all the planets, asteroids, etc in that solar system and converted that matter into whatever they needed. Not that that's a small feat, but if you're building a ringworld, you're not engaged in a small feat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fearing collateral damage, Gatekeeper decides to take the audience out of the equation. Gatekeeper: I summon a magical assistant. GM: Really? OK. A cute, little, magical girl shows up and asks, "What do you desire, master?" Gatekeeper: *A little shocked at the form his magical assistant has taken* "Um, I need you to handle crowd control. Get these people to a safe location." GM: She nods and summons a bunch more magical girls to keep the crowd under control. Golden Dragon: *After checking out the magical girls' assets* "Hey, uh, could you loan some of those to me?" Gatekeeper: "No! I am not the inter-dimensional pimp!"

Alek: I need to move. Samm: I understand Del Mar is nice. Damacus is stunned... Damacus: Don't daze me, bro. Samm finds that his arms have been magically turned to tentacles. Samm: Look Ma, I'm a mutant! Lucius: I've seen enough Hentai to know where this is going. Alek: Del Mar? Damacus is unclear on the concept... Damacus: Is it still dark? GM: Yes.

Part of it looks like Battlestar Galactica and part of it is definitely taken from a WH40K computer game. Yep, I compiled the video from existing sources, inspired by the video from Top Gun to which our pilot Jak linked. No harm intended, just creating some atmosphere I used: Bits from BSG (S01E05 and S02E12), for the pilot/cockpit shots and the view from the cockpit flying over a desert world Bits from the Ultramarines movie, all the Thunderhawk shots. The shot of the landing Thunderhawk was editted in After Effects to take out the Marines walking in the scene (our campaign doesn't feature Space Marines (yet...?). In my updated version I also editted the sequence where the engines ignite cause the background (some planet) bothered me. Bits from Dawn of War and Dawn of War II trailers and cut-scenes as found on Youtube. My next idea is to get cracking with Blender and do our ship (the Rose Tattoo) in 3D, and maybe that can lead to a nice custom-made animation. That'll take a bit more time than this edit though Oh, forgot to introduce myself: I am Netzach Benetek, Navigator Primaris for the Rose Tattoo.
