IC:  Warhammer 40 K

  I'm considering running a Warhammer 40K game.  The game would be using the 1st edition of Dark Heresy, depending on interests, both Deathwatch, and Rogue Trader characters maybe optional but RT characters ships would be out of game for extended repairs.  Characters starting rank would be flexible based on character concept the campaign would be part PUC and part Apostacy Gambit.

I'm curious what you mean by PUC and Apostacy Gambit, as my knowledge of the setting is limited in some ways.

They are 2 suppliments for Dark Heresy PUC is Purge the Unclean,  a book with several scenarios.  Apostacy Gambit is a three book series campaign that is a very challenging.

I would be HIGHLY interested in running an RT character in a DH campaign. I believe most RT characters are considered 3rd Rank DH players but with all the supplements this point can be argued until Tau in the face. Rogue Trader ship out for repairs, fun to be had dirt side. Color me brightly interested. Good Luck Regardless MKelley on your game.

I'm very interested! I've not played too many of the Fantasy Flight 40k games but the idea of a crossover between the systems sounds fun. A Kill Marine would be interesting in DH.

Cross class games of that nature can be tricky, but are lots of fun when they work well. :)

The Deathwatch characters would be more a second character if desired.  Though handy in several parts of the scenario.  I could even go as far as to allow Only War Guard characters in liu of the guardsman character from DH.

Understandable, since a Kill Marine compared to a DH character is likely similar to a Dreadnaught vs a Space Marine. They are great tools to show up and annihilate a few enemies for the team but I can imagine the Kill Marine would one-up the party otherwise.

Making one for those scenes would be pretty cool too. Still very interested regardless. :)

Not to give anything away but what is the concept of the game? Exploration? Inquisition? Or just serving out maximum levels of damage par excellence as only the Imperium of Man can do so very righteously?
