BOB DIED AS HE LIVED, GIANT.

>>557729
We need a tribe of Ogryns

>>557772
No, We need Baneblades. I promised that one guy and I don't break them.

>>557797
Give the tribe baneblades?

>>557772
>>557797

We could do with both.

Though Baneblades don't reproduce, sadly

>>557807
>>557801
If I vote Ogryns. We get banes?

Gonna be totally honest, Not sure how you'd import a tribe like that without a major upheaval of the natives. Unless we toss them onto 5 or the north.

>>557797
I wanna get some Lightnings for our air assault regiment as well. Air superiority -> uncontested airspace -> rape mode activatated.

>>557816
Could always set them down on the mineral planet, if not I'm sure theres some remote place where no one lives on our planet they could be settled at.

>>557828
well I know they'd be great at mining shit, but not so much the 'finer' parts of mining. Long as the hivers don't bully our giant stupid tribe.

Also, Where do we even GET a tribe from? how would that even work? Putting candy up a ramp to a ship?

>>557848
That's what a trader is for :)

>>557848
Well, they'd also be great for bolstering the PDF on that world since at best we'll be able to pull some gangers and the like for PDF.

Eh, I'm sure one of the Rogue traders we've made our acquaintance with would know something. Hell, one had a Ogryn bodyguard.

>>557906
That's not a whole tribe tho.

>>557945
Well, no it isn't. If you can get one ogryn you can get more I'm sure.

Are we doing this or what?

You request 5 million hivers, explaining to your father your plans to build a mining installation on the Tarkon V, a barren, but mineral rich world in the system...

He is impressed by your ambition, but unfortunately cannot offer much to you besides raw manpower and some provisions to feed them for the first few months when they arrive...

You go on to talk about some of the things going on at home, before leaving the astropathic chamber and returning to work...

A few days later you receive a vox transmission from Xeroth stating that shipyard is now finished and we can now start manufacturing starships...

What would we like to build first

A. Claymore-class corvette, a small fast warship, can be equipped for scouting, or with heavier weapons to make it a threat to larger ships (3 months)
B. A gas freighter, allows us to carry more hydrogen gas, and other gasses for delivery after mining them (3 months)
C. General purpose transport, can be used to carry goods, troops, colonists, whatever you need to do, slow and bulky, but they get the job done...(3 months)
D. Other(write-in)

>>559006
>A. Claymore-class corvette, a small fast warship, can be equipped for scouting, or with heavier weapons to make it a threat to larger ships (3 months)

>>559006
B. A gas freighter, allows us to carry more hydrogen gas, and other gasses for delivery after mining them (3 months)
This is one of our major exports, along with food. Interesting that the Mechanicus will barter us for hydrogen instead of harvesting it from stars. We must have a rich deposit.

>>559006
>B. A gas freighter, allows us to carry more hydrogen gas, and other gasses for delivery after mining them (3 months)

Pay off our loan quicker. We can then get even BETTER shit from the nerds.

>>559006
>B. A gas freighter, allows us to carry more hydrogen gas, and other gasses for delivery after mining them (3 months)

>>559029
too be fair, That means they'd have to spend the time and resources to harvest and refine it. We do all that and then hand over a finished product.

>>559238
Hydrogen from a star is probably the one place you're going to find any source of hydrogen in the wild. Hydrogen reacts with everything, so there's gonna be no purer source.

>>559262
Gas giants? Sense thats were we are mining our shite from.

>>559279
Even then, there's a ton of shit that hydrogen will bond with. Nitrogen. Sulfur. That sort of thing.

>>559321
I dunno then, all I know is that gas giant is our source of trade goods.

>>559137
>>559034
>>559029
You have Xeroth get STC data for a basic gas freighter, and oversee the production of the new ship

It will take several months worth of steel to build the ship, but that shouldnt be a problem for us.

With our shipments of gas mining increasing, our cruiser should be paid off in less than a year.

Inquisitor Corean, while not necessarily in good health, has recovered enough to think and speak clearly.

He has requested that we allow him to use our astropath, and you agree.

Over the next few days several dozen inquisition warships gather in orbit above Tarkon IV, many using our docking facilities and taking on provisions.

Corean has ordered us to join the Inquisition force, along with a naval squadron and several other planetary defense fleets in the sector, with the intent to head off a small Necron battlefleet....

Apparently they have been spotted near a strategic hiveworld close to the western frontier and an invasion is considered imminent....

We will at least need to send the cruiser and one of our regiments, and there is a decent chance they may not be coming back...

Who should we send?

A. The Jungle Rangers
B. The Mechanized regiment
C. The Airbone Regiment
D. Other(Write-in)

>>559378
>A. The Jungle Rangers
>B. The Mechanized regiment
Zachias has been only training men. Let's see him on the field of battle.

>>559406

Lets do this, it gives a good excuse to raise another regiment.

>>559378
Can we do half, and half?
If we can half of b, and d.

I would like to get our rangers some experience, but don't really know the landscape of the planet they would be fighting on.

>>559378
>B. The Mechanized regiment
It'll take a bit of firepower to handle Necrons

>>559406
We should probably not do that. We have already been having problems with people hearing about him, the less see him the better.

>>559417
You can do half and half, the planet they will fighting on is a densely populated hive world, but there is a strong possibility of it turning into a longer campaign, with fighting on several planets

>>559378

send the jungle fighters
i really can't stand those guys

>>559438
It's an Inquisitorial mission. Anybody surviving is gonna get broken up and commandeered for inquisitor's retinues or shot outright for corruption. Nobody talks about these missions.

>>559452
Even other inquisitors?

>>559378
A. The Jungle Rangers
B. The Mechanized regiment

I think this is a great opportunity to show off our troops to the Inquisition. Didn't we mention before that we wanted to be a source for inquisitorial inquisitorial stormtroopers? This is how we begin showing off our best foot soldiers.

>>559497
We did actually, thanks for the heads up.

>>559463
You'd be suprised at what the Big I does to cover its ass.

>>559521
>You'd be suprised at what the Big I does to cover its ass.

Yeah, and not all other Inquisitors are as loose as our friend, we don't need our men being seen led by some SM.

>>559378
>>559378
>With our shipments of gas mining increasing, our cruiser should be paid off in less than a year.
Instead of paying off the cruiser faster can we keep the original payment schedule and use the extra shipments to purchase the equipment needed for Tarkon V

>>559702
If we can deal with the Necron fleet then sure.

>>559465
>>559447
>>559417
>>559438
>>559416
You decide to send elements of the Jungle and Mechanized regiments....

Over the course of a week, the fleet stages around Tarkon IV, and our men are prepared for deployment.

An Impressive fleet is formed, with 3 battleships, 8 cruisers and 2 dozen escorts, the necron fleet is allegedly led by one of their legendary tombships and escorted by several cruisers and smaller craft...

You bid farewell to the men, before releasing them into Inquisition service...

You bid Captain Felix the best of luck for the mission...

Much to your surprise, you find that a small crusade has been called to purge the necrons from the western frontier.... Apparently Corean has some serious pull after all...

Back on Tarkon IV, you receive a message from Tzavaras, offering to sell you some more product...

You have enough to trade for 10 items....

He has shipments available of all the typical stuff he sells us, plus he has obtained several ships full of mining and industrial equipment, originally intended for the western frontier...

What would we like to trade from him?

A squadron of 5 baneblade tanks(limit of 1 buy)

A shipment of heavy weapons(missile launchers, autocannons, lascannons)

A shipment of 100,000 lasrifles

A Company sized unit of Leman Russ tanks(20 tanks)

Wut? Is there a difference or does that mean we can buy up to two sets.

If so buy up both of them.

>>560104
No objections

>>560183
>>560104
Guys we can pick up to 10 items.

>>560206
Let's NOT use all of our fucking units of trade goods for the time being mate. We might need them in a pinch.

>>560206

Yeah, and we can keep goods in reserve. Like for our tithe instead of men.

>>560212
Maybe you should use you fucking head and realize will have more than enough to spend.

Actually, don't we already have plenty of lasrifles? And aren't we making some?

>>560245
>Uses 8-9 points
>WE HAVE ENOUGH TO SPEND

I'm pretty sure we only get like 1-2 a month mate. Don't be Salty because somebody dones't want to fucking spend 99% of our goods.

>>560241
>>560246
So we stop sending men every year and send goods?

We could probably make lasrifles. We just haven' decided to yet. Plus we are ordering "plasma weapons" not lasrifles.

wow 10.000 plasma guns are actually a hugeeeeeeeee lot of those

>>560275
Folks are ordering lasrifles too.

>>560266
we get more than that per turn, and we will be getting more afterwards we we have mining set up.

>Calls himself Salt mind
>Calls others salty
>Not projecting salty bitterness onto others.

>>560278
Picture if we get our Marine and Tech priest too look'em over. Might get pimping and safe Crusader era designs made.

>>560282
just that one guy, and hes outnumbered.
>100,000 lasrifles
The fuck? That alone if there were that many rifles would use up all of our trade.

>>560292
I'm still used to being on /tg/ where everybody is Salty, My bad mate. I miss my home.

Also, do we? I thought we only got like 2 Per-turn currently because the rest is going towards the Tech-Priests to pay off our debt for the warship.

>>560278
I want hotshot lasrifles over the standard ones.

>>560311
I still go to both boards, its just one click away.

In fact I'm browsing the catalog right now, and was in a Halo quest there last week.

>>560336
Same, But Its kinda annoying. I'm strongly against this board, and want us to go all go home. But anyway, Do we really make more then 2 per-turn currently?

Stealth encryption communication equipment we could use to stay in contact with our forces that we gave to the inquisition crusade without them knowing just in case

Information about other nobles, and planets around us that would be useful in giving us an advantage if we started trading with them.

Ship blueprints that would expand what we could build at our shipyard, or at least could after we expanded it.

Any ships, like corvettes, or freighters.(Since we have two we should invest in an corvette escort for them, but still have some to guard the planet.

Necron tech that he might of "salvaged" from the western frontier.

Danger will robinson. It's heresy to consort with xenos.

>>560349
Yes, yes the creation of this board, despite the perks and the reasoning behind it given by the mods or whatever was weak and stupid, but at least interesting quests have a better chance at finding players (not that they often continue due to QM abandonment,)

>>560404
Also could we get a recap on what we have.
Manufacturing base, population, ships, troops, etc.

>>560424
well they always suffered from QM Abandonment, Either that or they fuck there computer in some way, Good old QM curse.

>>560404
Could... we even attempt to RnD that Necron tech? Also would that even be smart? We're currently the staging ground for the Big I and might very well be for along time after this.

>>560422
I know, but is so tempting to see what he could have.

QM mentioned in the last thread how we might have competition from other governors in the future, and having some necron tech that couldn't be traced to us, or made to look like they had, could be useful in the future if need be.

>>560443
I was thinking we could store it on our mining planet away from anyone.

>>560443
mechanicus guide to Necron tech
1. never deal with Necron tech

You know, I don't care too much about making the most money in the sector. We need protection from the Dark Angels, and we need to not piss off the Inquisition, which is on our planet.

>>560454

If i remember currently Phase-swords are from the Crons but what would we do in terms of what we got? We don't have any major labs set up and having parts sit around usually isn't that smart.

I'm not sure so I will need someone to help me confirm but it appears we are getting 10 "trade" per turn.

*Blam* Heresy?

>>560473
you'd need grey knight level resources and clearance along with a forge world with equal capabilities to mars to be able to even start.

I guess my Necron tech suggestion is a little controversial. What do you guys think about my other write-ins though?

>>560527
Other thread, QM stated we needed to get our shipyard larger? I think before we could make Cruisers. Information is useful as hell, and I don't think stealth encryption works like that sense we need astropaths from system to system.

>>560527
>Stealth encryption communication equipment
Big =I= will just send us dossiers on how they're doing if we ask.

>Information about other nobles, and planets around us that would be useful in giving us an advantage if we started trading with them.
This is okay, I guess? CIA factbook tier facts should be easy enough to come by. May slow the quest down though.

>Ship blueprints that would expand what we could build at our shipyard, or at least could after we expanded it.
This is fine. Light cruisers like Dauntlesses can be built by planetary shipyards just fine.

>Any ships, like corvettes, or freighters.(Since we have two we should invest in an corvette escort for them, but still have some to guard the planet.
Noo. That's getting expensive.

>>560404
>>560422
>>560443
>>560464
Well now hold on.... Maybe if we were to establish a Inquisitor base with our friend here, and he was willing to handle the xeno tech, while we "provide staff" for the facility, perhaps something could be done that way.

>>560493
>>560473
Very good arguments against messing with things that exceed our abilities.

>>560562

Qm stated that our Big I friend here was a Lord? and won't be doing shit for months-years. So we might very well be able to talk him into setting up a real base in this system for us. We did save his life after all. That could work.

>>560404
>>560527
I think corvettes fall into the escort category
http://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Imperial_Navy#Escorts

>>560579
I'm more interested in him letting us borrow his ships hes got in orbit of our planet. All that unused cargo capacity sitting in space.

We can even give their crews some ground-side time, provided they go through our very basic and rudimentary screenings, seriously we should set up a space port, and a ground port that does multi-level and through screenings.

Since you are such a good customer and 11 shipments can be fit on the transports, a free item is thrown in..

Tzavaras is also willing to sell an old Imperial colony ship, hes very vague on where he acquired it, but it has all the equipment needed to settle a hostile environment world, like Tarkon V....

He's willing to give to us, in exchange for a share of the mining yields from Tarkon V...

You also inquire into possibly settling an Ogryn tribe on one of the planets of the system...

Tzavaras isnt sure, but a small tribe of 2000 Ogryn were evacuated from the western frontier and are waiting on the Imperial Bureaucracy to deal with them.....

With the Inquisition fleet and the mini crusade launched, things fall back into the doldrums of regular life.

Tarquin is now fully grown weighing in at 120 pounds, and has trained in addition to being your personal pet, as an effective guard dog, able to take a grown man with ease...

Should we take the colony ship from Tzavaras in exchange for a share of the mining yields?

Come on guys hes just a simple honest businessman, trying to turn a profit

>>562577

Then why a take of 40% on our wine crops? 25% would've been a better spread and still earn him alot.

25%

25% Percent of an entire world's industrial output is ridiculous, we also need to revise our wine deal now that it's off the ground.

You pass on the colony ship for now, leaving us to find a new way to develop Tarkon V.

You are approached by Landuin the head of your personal guard, about a new idea.

With the tournament of blades held only every 10 years, it seems that there should be another avenue to join the personal guard and filter out the best warriors on Tarkon IV.

He proposes founding a knightly order, like the Ancient Serathi orders, dotting the northern continent.

Sergeant Zachias is also keen on the idea, interested in Knighly orders since his time on Caliban.....

What should be the emphasis of this knightly order?(besides combat skill of course)

A. Well read, warrior-poets, leaders and representatives of their people in every way
B. The best hunters of Tarkon IV, slaying mighty beasts in the jungles and on the plains alone

Anon's before decided to not do that, plus nothing really 'changes' in terms of those who undergo the treatment expect becoming HUGE and things of that nature. Plus we can do it to anybody.

>>563393
Eh. Warrior poets has just always sounded faggy as hell to me.

Was more folks for making beastly killing machines before, but thats how it goes with quests that arent on much of a schedule i suppose.

>>563443
It might be faggy as shit but its useful for our Personal Guard.

>>563443
Think of them as sophisticated warriors, intelligent, able to read and write in more than their tribal language, understand politics and discuss tactics etc. Useful as a personal guard among the Lords and Ladies and other higher-ups of the sector.

>>562975
C. Philosopher soldiers. We need muscle that can think, and that are fanatically loyal to us. You know the Jesuit order? Originally shock troops for the Vatican. I also like the idea of troops we can put in charge of trouble spots or as administrators when we need extra hands.

>>563505
That's... A mate

>>563492
oooooh....muscle we can train and other nobles can "borrow". Guaranteed to hear everything and say nothing. Except to us. Acquire currency.

>>563492
That sounds like you're looking for future lords then knights desu. Sophisticated? Intelligent? Not things that are super useful on the vanguard.

>>563511
"Poets" are artsy fags. "Philosophers" are scholars and stoics.

>>563519
>leaders and representatives of their people in every way

>>563515
I personally didn't vote for that option but I think those traits would work well for a personal guard.

>>563515
That's what a "knight" is. An officer, usually with a fief.

>>563523
Uh...dude, unless this world is a bunch of Greeks, I don't think philosophers are representative of the people in every way...or even one way.

>>563492

Hm, im with>>563515

>>563537
You realize the North part of the world has abunch of Medieval age type of people right? So not everybody is a south tribal-savage.

>>563537
Yea, representatives of our people would be the biggest badasses around, not necessarily super smart and eloquent but they could snap a normal mans back like a twig before we start beefing him up

>>563554
Eh, I'll go with A. As long as they're able to read, think, and con.

>>563560
QM hasn't fucked us over yet. So i think its good.

>>563575
Do you think QM would mind if we fucked with him some?

>>562975
>A. Well read, warrior-poets, leaders and representatives of their people in every way

>>563711
Yes, Quite abit actually. I'd rather not piss off a QM unless i had too.

You found the Order of the Sky(we can rename), comprised of nobles taken from the top families of Tarkon IV.

The trials of membership are difficult and consist of many steps, first the warriors must prove themselves sound of body, proving victorious in combat trials against other aspirants, they then must prove their eternal loyalty to the Order, and the greater Imperium, taking a blood oath...

The warriors must prove themselves able to speak at least 3 language, including the common Imperial tongue fluently....

They then must prove themselves sound of mind, writing a treatise on religion, philosophy, warfare or a number of high level topics, with the goal to increase their understanding and help advance the people and culture of Tarkon IV.

Skilled with the blade and the pen, these warriors are fanatically loyal to you first and foremost, their training also consisting of heavy indoctrination in addition to education and combat training...

Their works and the ancient works of the world have been gathered in a great library, which in addition to being a large castle with modern technology, serves as their headquarters and base of operations...

The best of the Order are inducted into your guard, and also serve as a diplomatic Corps of sorts as well....

There is also always the possibility of founding a rival knightly order in the future, after all, a little healthy competition never hurt anybody....

The first reports have come back from the campaign against the Necrons, while their fleet has not been brought to battle yet, Necron ground forces have been located on a frontier world that appears to have been harvested of all life....

Our men have performed admirably, earning the respect of the Inquisition forces and the other Imperials fighting alongside them...

In particular a young lieutenant, a jungle tribesmen in his previous life, led a devastating ambush along with the rest of his heavy weapons platoon, cutting down dozens of necron warriors, only losing a handful of men in the process...

The Inquisition will likely want to use our troops more often, a mixed blessing...

You are awoken in your chambers in the middle of the night, apparently a contact was detected on the edge of system. Rapidly approaching your station....

You hear her voice over the vox as you reach the command center...

"Maxi, this is Isabelle, remember me from the party? Please let me aboard...."

You have the corvette, fly in close to the ship, and it is indeed the Dandelion, the star yacht of House Tarvayen...

She hugs you as she disembarks the ship, clearly dissapointed at the lack of luxury on the station, she quickly orders her servants to bring her things on board, with over a dozen men bringing various luggage, consisting of hundreds of sets of clothing and dozens of pairs of shoes....

You ask why she is here...

>>564012
"So Maxi.... My father may have had me betrothed to another man, but I ran away before the wedding, now we can be together instead! Arent you excited Maxi!"

You barely know this woman, having nothing more than a one night stand at Johanns party....

Her father is a powerful and influential lord in the sector...

What do we do?(write-in)


Also thats all I got for the night guys...

Sorry tomorrow should be better, I have been really busy with work and other stuff lately, it will probably be kind of slow this week, but should pick up during the weekend as I have no big plans as of now

>>564029
Can you give a refresher as to who the hell this woman is again? And also an updated list of our supplies Shmeh?

>>564039
One of the skanks at that orgy/gambling party we went to.

>>564029
>What do we do?(write-in)
It'd do well to give her father a ring, a one night stand and old broad breaks a betrothal and wants to move in?

>>564012
Far as another order of knights goes if we get to that

With naming it should have some duality, like order of the dawn and order of the dusk etc

Now about those Ogryns... where we gonna be putting 'em folks? I could dig having our own Nork Deddog

>>564029

So we put her on stasis and sent her to her father on Sanguinala?

>>564012
I thought she was running from the necros, marry her to a rouge trader or something.

>>564029
So we need to treat her with respect due to her station and who her father is but we should also keep and her men on lockdown. They aren't to leave, they don't get the right to roam wherever they please on the station and absolutely wont be going planetside. Have a couple of our guards with her at all times. Also, obviously, we need to contact her father immediately and have him come collect his daughter.

>>564029
I'd say Call up old Lord Tarvayen, ask what the deal is. We're too young for this shit.

Then pretend to sorta go along with it, under the guise of "I need to think about this" or something. Makes sure she has nice quarters, but they're secured.

>>564029
Voting these >>564194 >>564189

>>564194

Oh I know! We love her and can't wait to get married and spend our honeymoon on crusade. That should have her running.

>>564249
>Wanting to marry a degenerate.
I highly doubt her character, she'd probably raise a kid worse off than our brother. Speaking of, we did abandon our first born, if the woman's claims are accurate, and our brother hasn't really improved much.

>>564272
We sent our kid off to a lifetime of service to the Emprah. Could've been much worse desu

>inb4 she hooks up with our deadbeat brother

>>564249
This could be really funny. Explain you'd love to marry her! She can help you tend the Grox, hunt Nauga, whip the peasants, roll in lovely muck, and all the other fun filthy stuff medieval worlds are famed for!

>>564293
>>564249
I change my vote to this. After calling Lord Tarvayen.

>>564293

We can do away with our riches we only need our love for each other and the Emperor. Now let's look for that cardinal so we can marry and donate all our money.

>>564293
And give her the most spartan accomidations that is filled with primitive junk from planet, and act like its the height of luxury that we can offer from this entire backworld planet. She'll be running away faster than a speeding RT from an inquisition fleet!

>>564330
We should give her the longest tour of our armory possible until she's all but begging to leave.

"--and here's where I stores all 400,000 of my Las Guns!"

>>564356
Make up names for each rifle, and introduce them to her.

>>564356

"I sold my luxury yacht for them but it was worth it. "

>>564356
Definetly this.

Then state that she needs to start her military training on the planet below immediately. Every body must be fighting fit to preserve the Holy Dominion of our Emperor.

The spartan nature of our space station will add credence to this story.

>>564363
>>564356
And invite her to join us in singing the Litany of Holy Firepower over each one

We really do need to look into our potential marriages tho, I'm not too sure how such things work in 40k, but as with everything a political marriage will always have benefits.

I'm pretty curious about the RTs daughter myself. Maybe we could get some sweet sweet gear out of him? Maybe even a badass ship for our flagship? All manner of trade contacts to be sure, easy access to all manner of mercenary and pirate contacts to be sure. Father inlaw with a badass fleet?

Though, from what I gather from lexicanum there are 32,800 hiveworlds in the Imperium, so it would seem that we come from pretty prestigious stock and such a marriage may even be beneath us.

Further, if we can ever get our brother shaped up into anything worthwhile I should imagine we could get something out of marrying him off to someone influential.

>>564768
Pretty sure we made the RT daughter jelly at the dance to help wooo her, and if she ever does come up we might very well get first dibs on the goods he has.

I'd prefer we marry her to be honest.

>>564776
>Pretty sure we made the RT daughter jelly at the dance to help wooo her,

I do recall that being how it went, and to good effect.

Assuming she's his heir, our own childrens would have one hell of an empire to inherit with us on the out and about colonizing more worlds.

I think becoming a semi autonomous entity within the Imperium would be an interesting outcome no matter how we go about it.

Speaking of, aren't we in line to inherit a hive world?

>>564835
I'm not sure it would be smart of us to inherit said world when we have an 'entire' system, we could hand it off to another brother? or family member. Also we're already pretty much semi-Autonomous.

>>564292
Gonna be fucked up if we meet him again. We didn't want to raise him, but we raised a dog.

Even though she did some slurry things we should keep in mind our character did the same thing if not more at that party. Though she probably has the most experience at that sort of thing. But if that's the kind of things nobles do I wonder if we would even be able to get a bride that is considered pure.

For the girl however I think we should see what she can actually offer us in marriage before we decide or not. In truth we could always get a mistress later on. If her family is powerful marriage wouldn't seem so bad.


It would also be a good idea to see who her former fiance was and what he might do in retribution against us. I feel like it's gonna be that young governor who might be our rival with the desert fighters.

>>564856
you make it sound like we're gonna keep him,

>>564855
you mean our bastard? He ain't got fucking rights. His a bastard

>>564842
Well, I don't reckon it'd really be up to us if we're set to inherit. Depending on distance it'd be decent enough to have kin running it in our stead I suppose. That's way on down the line questwise tho.

far as I mean about semi-autonomous I mean like what the ultramarines got going or

http://warhammer40k.wikia.com/wiki/Agathean_Domain

http://warhammer40k.wikia.com/wiki/Manachean_Commonwealth

Not necessarily left to our own devices as it goes on the frontier, but head of an influential political block within the Imperium itself.

>>564855

Honestly, I wish the vote would have been to keep him around, but it could prove to be interesting to see him come about down the line.

>>564856

It's more the had a one night stand and she shows up looking to move in deal that would be the issue.

>>564861
Oh then there is a chance ya, The issue being is need to secure alliances with the Tech-Priests, Navigitors and also Astropaths, AND get this all approved by the Lords of Terra.

Pretty sure most of those are ANCIENT compared to when we are existing now.

>>564867

Well, we're already buddy buddy with a Lord Inquisitor and have been working well at being in good with the AdMech. A good start I'd say.

>>564869
I would't call 2 trade deals very 'buddy buddy' with the Tech-Priests. Though we did save the Lord Inquisitor's life with our medical Kit and Marine. But it'll still take more.

>>564875

You got me mixed fella, buddy buddy with the LI. But, as I said, a start.

>>564875
I think we're on pretty good terms with the Lord Inquisitor, I mean... he is even giving us advice on how to survive the DA and keep our resident Space Marines on the down-low instead of just BLAMing us. He constantly gives us advice, we cooperate with him often and he personally escorted us to the big party with all the important locals.

As for the AdMech, yeah we are probably on decent terms but we still have a ton of work to put in there.

>>564880
Well we did kinda return the favor by saving his life.

>>564879
Apologizes, its going on 4am here.

Whelp good night guys! See you all tommorrow.

>>564858
No one has rights in this universe, and our brother is more of a bastard at the moment. It something that could reflect poorly on us down the road if we try to ever maintain a moral high ground.

>>564861
Kind of the same sentiments, but we were busy, am we didn't entirely want to deal with a kid. I wonder about the mother though.

>>564856
I want to find out as much as possible, before we even entertain the idea of a marriage. For all we know, she was disowned, and her inheritance striped and titles stripped from her.

By the way, I believe that it is not a bad idea to let the rogue trade a share of the mining profits as this will increase the likelyhood that he will interfere or send aid in the event of an alien incursion.

As to how to deal with Isabelle, you may always bore her to death to make her leave on her own accord, but at the same time, she may eventually get her hands on a warrant of totrade and we have been relying on her family to run us guns.

There is also a possibility we could leverage some assassins to kill her bethrothed. We could attempt to pull some strings from our social club.

We could also go to her father and offer him a cut on all our future operations in exchange for her daughter, but she may just leave us hanging like she did the other lord.

Best course of action for the welfare of this planet is probably to let the rogue trader to come visit and tell him that we've reconsidered the mining deal and think that it is actually a great idea and use that as a pretext to have him come over.

Then we will talk about how do we handle this situation.
There may be a conflict of interest if we wanna marry into a rogue trader house and keep impressing the inquisition since they would probably use us for trafficking of illegal goods.

>>564880
Well, he recognises that a rapidly growing military power is a great when you're dealing with rampant alien incursions.

We should get that mining planet running fast I think, because we need somewhere to stick those hivers.

>>564890
%25 of a planets mining output is not worth a old freighter, we could buy a few new cargo ships for much, much less. At most, I'd give him %5, and he sends aid whenever the planet is threatened.

>>564890
>how to deal with Isabelle, you may always bore her to death to make her leave on her own accord, but at the same time, she may eventually get her hands on a warrant of totrade and we have been relying on her family to run us guns.


Isabelle isn't the Rogue Traders daughter anon, she is the daughter of some powerful Lord in a nearby system. We hooked up with her at the previous party. The Rogue Traders daughter we met and hooked up with at another party further back, the ball with all the nobles and military folk.

>>564890
No mining rights given too the RT mate. 25% is fucking massive and he donest help us because he wants too. He does it because he profits from it.

>>564894

Pretty sure we just bought the kit for it.and if not.we can always call the Tech-Priests. We've paid our loans off so far so no reason they couldn't loan us a ship to transport hives and mining things to the world. Long as we don't state 'mmmhhm so rich'

>>564890

As I put forward earlier, we might could offer marriage to his daughter and his aid in colonizing the planet as a dowry. Some small profits going to him, perhaps fueling rights and all. Would be uniting our families, so it'd have a fair bit of incentive for him I'd think.

>>564894
We have plenty of space and enough food surplus to provide for them, but from all the recent population influx we should be near our capacity.

Lets set up the mining operation first before we start a proper settlement. They can slowly be transferred to planet after every transport run.

>>564890
We met her at that lazy hedonistic Planetary Governor's party a while back with the gambling.
See
>>545150

>>564899
I think we can find a better political marriage than her.

Has anyone considered the inquisitor might be a heretic?

>>564941
From what I remember (I might be wrong), he is a moderate radical likely of Ordos Xenos or possibly Ordos Hereticus. That would explain his Xenos weapon and the fact that he is ok with the Space Marines. Other than that, why do you assume he is a heretic?

>>564946
Mostly because he is being so accommodating to us. Narratively, it sets him up to later be a traitor who strikes at us from within when we are least prepared for it. And even without that sort of metagame thought, it seems suspicious to me that such a powerful figure is so accessible to us. If not heresy, then there must be something we're not seeing here at work.

Either way, I would be cautious about him and less willing to just trust him with everything.

>>564950
Well we've been pretty useful so far and we are in a great position for his forces to fall back to and base operations out of. Also, as a previous anon said, he has noticed our ability to drum up well equipped and and skilled soldiers which is always useful if he needs firepower. We've followed through on his orders every time he has given them and shown ourselves to be quite useful to him. We're also something of a rising star in this area it would seem, that is something he might want a hand in reputation wise.

All this being said however, it's still the grimdark future of 40k and we should keep our eyes open for betrayal from everyone.

>>564941
>Has anyone considered the inquisitor might be a heretic?

How could we ever suspect such a powerful agent of the emperor being a heretic?

I mean hopefully we've just a fast and loose LI hanging around us that we've managed to be very helpful towards, and we should keep playing it like that unless some serious red flags start showing.

>>564941
Even if he's a heretic, that is inconsequential.
We cannot do anything about it and we should not do anything about it as it's drastically overstepping our boundaries.

>>564950
>it seems suspicious to me that such a powerful figure is so accessible to us. If not heresy, then there must be something we're not seeing here at work.
Shmeh just runs a superfucking easy quest.
>Cruiser
>Multiple squadrons of baneblades
>Space marines
Suspension of disbelief can go so far but this isn't the 40k I know.

>>564895
I don't think he'd bother sending much aid for meager 5%.

>>564896
Just bore her to death, I guess or something.

>>564972
>Shmeh just runs a superfucking easy quest.

Be nice to have more challenge and difficulty honestly

Only 1 squad of baneblades tho

>>564896
>>564906
Oh, ok then
Just have his dad pick her up and make sure to bore her to death while waiting for him.

No way in hell should we marry to a lord we don't know just because we met her daughter in a mildly heretical party.

>>564976
Agreed.

>>564976
>>564972
Then go run your own? So far we've avoided doingthe stupider shitand had we not warned out Big I friend we probably would've been fucked hard.

>>564976
>>565192
Pretty certain its only easy for now. its not hard to ramp up the difficulty. The issue is to make it fun and balanced at that point.

I'd like to think the reasoning and such will revel in time after a bit of polishing and development. Like Corean making good use of us or whatever. We did in the end provide treatment that no doubt saved his life, to that end we've already paid off a bit in his eyes.

>>565304
Plus you know the Crusade that's on the brink, the Necrons, and the Orcs could of been a massive problem. So while we currently have it 'easy' by dodging a few problems, there is heaps set up and could go to shit in a moment.

>>565354
We got super lucky with that cause of our rolls.

>>564012
>>564029

Confine her in the most comfortable and luxurious room we have available that can be securely contained from the outside;

Investigate exactly who and how powerful are her father and her betrothed;

Appeal to our memory of realpolitik and what nobles in this version of the 40k-verse are like, with regards to the average degree of degeneracy and wrathfulness;

Hold on making a decision to call up her father or her betrothed or the local priest or slaver until we have the data requested above;

Under no circumstances will we do any of the following:
• Act on the advice of any character voiced by Gilbert Gottfried;
• Allow our trusted lieutenants to be left alone with the unmarried daughter;
• Allow the unmarried daughter into our supreme command center;
• Discuss any plans regarding things we should not have or know in front of the unmarried daughter;
• Let on that we believe the unmarried daughter is a spy (she is totally a spy btw);
• Personally investigate any malfunction in or near the unmarried daughter's tastefully decorate totally-not-a-prison-cell room;

In general, politely treat this person as a potential hostile while trying not to let on that we think so while keeping all options over to be rid of her in one way or another.

I've got a suggestion to appease the local folks and their worries about having their culture drowned by high tech shit and bunch of foreign scum.

We must invest into creating monuments which honour and venerate their martial traditions.
Also create more knighthood orders and warrior lodges.

Let's turn this world into a tournament world.

I believe the real reason she came was because she is selfish and stupid.
She thinks we are this super cool drug lord with a huge army and because of that, she thinks she can probably use us to weasel out of getting married and continue a life of sex, drugs and alcohol.

Make sure she is shipped to her father ASAP.
Our guns are for fighting enemies of the imperium, not for her amusement.

>>565642
You a closeted Khorne worshipper?

>>565680
You can't expect to get good recruits if you let their martial culture fade away in favour of merkel tier politics.

>>565714
Muslims don't worship the god emperor mate, therefore we'd kill them.

>>565714
I'm not the one calling for millions of immigrants without screening them ([spoilers]for genestealers[spoiler/])

>>564029
shack up and get married to her.

>>565734
>>565728
We need that mining world up and running fast so we can stick the hiver scum in there.

>>565728
Tallarn are a thing

>>565714

Their martial culture can evolve from hunters into soldiers.

Why do we care about the native population's opinion about anything?

>>566046
Because its gonna be one of the reason we're so well known? Our trained soldiers?

>>566046
Paternalism. We high king

Also, its a way to keep from destroying the flavor of the planet.

>>566065
Is their opinion somehow going to limit their ability to be turned into good guardsmen?

"I was gonna kick some ork butts today, but then I remembered how the sky king didn't respect my culture very much before he shipped me off to fight them so now I think I'll just not kick ork butts."

>>566120
This is a better explanation.

>>566127
They're afraid of losing their culture, if we move too quickly in lifting up their society and totally ignore those fears there is a chance they could revolt. Obviously we could put a quick and violent end to that but I'd suggest it is better to have a happy and compliant people than an angry, distrustful and begrudgingly compliant people.

>>566147
Well we dont necessarily have to lift them up you know. At most bringing the whole of the planet up to late medieval would do.

As far as uplifting the planet tho, you couldnt go to say 10th century europe and turn it into a space faring industrial culture in a few years, it would be madness

You are quick to show her room, a decently(poorly by noble standards) furnished room in a very secure and isolated part of the station....

She seems oblivious to this as you take her hand and escort her to her temporary quarters, telling her you will think about letting her stay with you....

In the meantime you have her settle into her room and discretely have a few of your men find out what they can about the Lord James Tarvayen....

Apparently he rules a large and prosperous civilized world, along with several mining worlds, and has built a small empire for himself near the western frontier....

The Tarvayens are the decendents of one of Lord Macharius' Generals, and have been a powerful force in the region for centuries...

You have the astropath contact her family while you take her on the longest and most boring tour of the station you can think of, going into each key piece of equipment in detail, and avoiding most of the interesting parts of the station.

You talk at length about the trials of living on a feudal world and your spartan lifestyle...

You can almost sense the interest draining from her as the tour continues....

You sit down for dinner in the common dining area, eating a finely made grox stew. Unsurprisingly she requests to go back to her quarters relatively early, telling you how exhausting her day is, and that maybe you should just be friends after all....

You get a response from her father, who is thankful that his daughter is safe, implying heavily in his message that Isabella has been a problem child in the past....

It seems she was betrothed to a governor of a civilized world in a neighboring sector over twice her age....

You find out he is sending an escort craft to pick her up and bring the family yacht back home....

He is very influential and is willing to grant you a boon....

A. A personal introduction to the Sector Governor
B. A call to arms for any situation we may be embroiled in
C. 500,000 thrones(a substantial sum of money, equal to 5 product shipments)
D. Other(Write-in)

Get our foot in the door with this guy. We just mention it to him, and odds are he entertain the idea before doing some limited trade, which will open up our opportunities.

A few days of awkwardness go by, as you generally avoid Isabella, busying yourself with work...

Finally her family ship arrives, docking at the station. You actually a feel a little bad, as you open the door to her quarters with several of her family's armsmen in tow.

It doesn't take her long to figure out what happened, she cries and hits you before storming out, under the close watch of her guards...

You have her things quickly packed as she is sent home back to her betrothed...

The alliance you have gained with House Tarvayen should prove useful if we ever have to defend ourselves independently from a threat....

You train Tarquin and read the Treatises from several Sky Knights, including forming an elite infantry regiment, specialized in melee fighting, the author goes into detail, theorizing about the application of airpower and gravchutes....

You are alerted to a contact entering the system....

A small inquisition monitor ship, moving at maximum speed. Rapid encrypted vox chatter is picked up between the ship and the Inquisition outpost...

They report that a neighboring system is being raided by a chaos warband, in a Hellbringer class cruiser, the Blood Rain....

Shortly afterwards, Lord Inquisitor, escorted by Inquisition stormtroopers limps into the command center telling you he is assuming command of the systems defenses...

He places the PDF on alert, and the Redline in a defensive stance near Tarkon IV, he has 2 Inquistion corvettes lie in wait in low orbit of the planet...

Less than 2 hours pass before the Chaos warship emerges from the warp, emitting horrfiying screams of tortured people as it barrels towards our planet....

The Chaos cruiser, attempting to avoid our station has come around to the farside of the planet and has not detected the Inquisition ships yet....

Roll a d100 to determine the success of the battle in space, ill take the average of the first 3 rolls....

average of 73 a moderate success

The Redline engages the Chaos cruiser at first initially, exchanging torpedo and lance fire at long range. The Chaos cruiser is caught off guard by the 2 Inquisition corvettes, adding their weapons to the firepower against the the Cruiser...

Its powerful lances manage to hit one of the corvettes disabling its shields, the Cruiser continues to focus fire on the wounded corvette as it approaches the planet, destroying it, at the cost of losing its void shields to our ship and the remaining corvette...

A ragged cheer goes up on the station as the power readings seem to drop on the Chaos ship, clearly losing its weapons....

The Corvettes continue firing on the cruiser, as it disgorges several droppods, shuttles towards the planet, with 3 boarding shuttles barreling towards the station....

Roll a d100 to determine the success of intercepting the boarding shuttles...

And here come the shitty rolls. Lol

>>567254
So...all that training? All those guns? The winnowing our troops to find the best? This is what we pay them for. It's game time.

Let's be sure we're seen to be appropriately heroic. The high king will be somebody to fear.

>>567392
Yeah no doubt we need to gear up and prepare to throw down

Weak faith, you will be shot for heresy after this.

average of 23.6 an embarrassing failure, we need work on our gunnery if we survive this

The boarding shuttles, are too quick for our defenses, and quickly close the gap

Alerts and sirens activate all over the station.
Corean comes over the intercom...

"Brace for impact, Prepare for boarders, For the Emperor!"

You, along with your men, rush to the armory and gear up to engage the Chaos space marines....

You prepare your boltpistol and powersword for battle and don a suit of carapace armor...

Landuin, Gandron and several of your personal guard do the same, picking up plasma rifles and preparing their chainswords, and power swords and getting their combat injections ready...

Men around you don armor and grab their weapons as well, the plasma guns being handed out like candy, as lasguns will have little effect against these enemies...

You find Gideon leading a squad of droptroopers, arming himself with one of the normally crew operated lascannons...

Fortunately we have 1000 men on the station, including several hundred veteran droptroopers...

The men take position behind bulkheads in strategic positions all over the station...

Coreans voice comes over the vox again

"Prepare for impact, 10 seconds..."

Where should you go?

A. Hold up in the command center with Corean
B. Lead the men from the front, let them see no fear....
C. Other(Write-in)

>>567841
>B. Lead the men from the front, let them see no fear....

EMPEROR PROTECTS.

>>567841
B. Lead the men from the front, let them see no fear....
Damn the torpedoes.

>>567841
>B
The moral boost will it will have can help.

>Write-in

Before we go coordinate our defense points with the inquisitor, and our forces planet side, maybe even give a small speech before engagement.

This includes getting our knightly order ready for their first battle, along with our shock troopers.
And getting our own space marines ready for backup just in case, since I heard some Anons mention we have some. But keep them hidden

Also can we do a separate roll for our planetside defenses since you only mentioned we failed with our space station ones?

>>567841
>C. Other(Write-in)

If I may propose a radical option, set the station to self-destruct and made a drop to the surface with our droptroopers and all available landers. There is little chance to hold the station but we can deny it to the enemy, kill their boarding teams and move more of our forces to the real battleground in the surface.

>>567909
I don't think we're that bad off yet. Good suggestion if the battle goes sour.

>>567841
>B. Lead the men from the front, let them see no fear....

>>567841
>A. Hold up in the command center with Corean

With a quick reaction force to move to where the fighting gets heaviest

>>567909
H..how strong do you think fucking Chaos armor is? A plasma rifle will punch through that thing and so will a bolter round.

>>567977

Yeah, but all their boarding teams got inside.

>>567988
We have 1000 men on board. We will be ok

>>567988
And we out-number them 1k men against at best 300? Space marines, in a starship we know. With PLASMA weapons handed out like candy.

>>567903
>And getting our own space marines ready for backup just in case, since I heard some Anons mention we have some. But keep them hidden

They are 3 30k Dark Angels that got sent through the warp prior to the HH. Apothecary and pilot trainee and a sergeant.

>>567988
Yeah but we've got plasma weapons everywhere, a fair bit of power swords, our own elite bodyguard a Lord Inquisitor and whatever retinue he has with him plus crew. We stand a bit of a chance being on defense.

You take the lead in one of the strongpoints on the station....

You are accompanied by your bodyguards and join 2 squads of jungle rangers, whos sergeant has wisely decided to set up a heavy weapon team in the back with an autocannon....

You rally the men, speaking of the ancient heroes of Tarkon IV and the strength and power of the Emperor....

You hear the crash of impact, likely on the same deck as you, but several hallways over...

You hear the distant sounds of plasma fire and men screaming, as well as inhuman howling....

You pull up your dataslate, and activate the pictographs of the deck of the station....

You witness a group of droptroopers valiantly fighting a group of chaos terminators, but are quickly overwhelmed and slaughtered....

A handful appear to be running away towards you....

You make sure noone else can see the slaughter on the datapad, although you are pretty sure Landuin saw it....

The fleeing troopers turn the corner...

You attempt to rally them to rejoin the fight at your strongpoint, having the autocannon reposition to cover the likely approach of the terminators...

Roll a d100...
