*Head peeks over mound of corpses, eyes narrowed* ...I am monitoring these heretics...

In all seriousness, I'd love to play if this get's going

Going to need a GM before any of this becomes more than pie in the sky :(

Re: Black Crusade: MAXIMUM HERESY (Solo or Group)

I may be able to take this up. (emphasis on may)

I've experience with most of the 40k RPGs and a little experience GMing, though not GMing the 40k RPGs sadly.
I'd love to run a game or two (I prefer small groups) though I have a few questions for you all first.

1)  Are any of you experienced with GMing 40k RPGs?  In my past experiments with this I had issues with deciding on balance in combat, I could use some advice as I go along.

2)  Who would be wanting to play a human and who would be a CSM?  I've heard that balancing a mixed party is difficult so possibly having a group of humans and a group of CSM would be best.

3)  What type of stories/game are each of you looking for?

As I said, I may not be able to do something, but depending on your answers I may be inspired to do it.

...As long as you don't mind a rookie GM.

Re: Black Crusade: MAXIMUM HERESY (Solo or Group)

I'm a fair hand with the system, I'm just not mentally suited to be a good GM, sadly, but I'll provide as much advice as you need if it gets me a game!

Most of your other questions have answers in my original character post thing.

Re: Black Crusade: MAXIMUM HERESY (Solo or Group)

Alectai has said what type of game s/he wants, but what about the other interested parties?
What type of characters would you be interested in playing?  And what type of game would you want?

In reply to NotTheRedWire (msg # 17):

In short:
Preferably human characters who have recently fallen to chaos alternatively one from my own warband http://fredrikslicer.deviantar...-bloodless-509053321

Game wise heavily focused around the characters with action set pieces to keep the pace up and add variety. To be more specific games where you start with very little and then in a sandbox esque way work yourself up through very varied adventure has an appeal.

Re: Black Crusade: MAXIMUM HERESY (Solo or Group)

I'm okay with starting from the bottom, I just want a Chaos game where I'm not basically cutting myself off at the knees for not playing a bog-standard frothing lunatic or zealot.

For all that they claim "FREEDOM! OF WHATEVER!" Chaos tends to gravitate towards very cookie-cutter characters eventually.  I'd rather avoid that if I can.

Re: Black Crusade: MAXIMUM HERESY (Solo or Group)

I'm a big fan of unorthodox characters, and I hate the one dimensional characters that BC tends to encourage.

Depending on what the others say I could always run a solo game for you, Alectai, and then one for all the others if your desires for the game don't mix.

Will be fun doing a "GRINdark" game for once.

I'm totally fine with a Solo Game!

Re: Black Crusade: MAXIMUM HERESY (Solo or Group)

I've wanted to play a Psyker who went to chaos just to be able to live. Perhaps he became obsessed with knowledge after but not because he was this immediate "Murder everyone" personality. Perhaps he went to chaos because he feared the Imperium would have just sacrificed him to the Emperor rather than let him live?

Something like that, or a Heretek for nearly the same reasons. So I think either a newly formed warband or a solo game with characters getting the chance to CHOOSE to form together or not would be cool.

Re: Black Crusade: MAXIMUM HERESY (Solo or Group)

Interesting character Alectai, reminds me of some of the wierder ones I have done in the past.

RedWire, are you doing up a game? If so, I have a last survivor of a lost Chapter whose Pact makes him fertile (and interested) looking fo a home.

Re: Black Crusade: MAXIMUM HERESY (Solo or Group)

I do plan to start a game or two (Would prefer to keep CSM and Heretics separate for ease of balance), unfortunately it is currently so hot that my brain is melting, so I'll only be getting things rolling when I can form cohesive thought again.

Would also like to hear back from a few more of the hopefuls in this thread.

Totally understand the heat issues, So-Cal resident myself. Also at Anime Expo, so wouldn't be available until next week minimum. Look forward to RPing with everyone.

Sorry, things are a bit hectic here.  Will send out Rmails to people in here when I can actually get a decent interval.

Agreed, no rush. Waited long enough for a BC game, can wait a bit longer. Just don't forget about us :P

Re: Black Crusade: MAXIMUM HERESY (Solo or Group)

Sorry, been stupidly busy lately, not really had time to work on this.  If you can get another Gm then go for it, you could always end up in two games when I finally get things sorted. :)
