I would have to say Investigation 30 plus percent, combat 40 plus percent, exploration 15 to 20 percent.  The exploration is more of searching orinvestigations of known areas for the missing or forgotten truth rather then finding new territory.  Also much of the combat is more of the desperate "oh hell what did we get into" rather than neat preplanned engagements.  Including combat against enemies from....beyond.

Darn. Marines Errant sans warzone gear & deathwatch logistics support has been one of those 'maybe one day' ideas I've been sitting on for a long time.

Curse I've played both modules, they are lots of fun!

As a second word of warning we found the advancement rate a bit screwy between DH and RT running together. :)

I think the idea of everyone having a space marine for when they fit is a good thing, even with mostly playing a DH/RT character. :)

Are you thinking we'd have been together a while as a team?

As far as systems xp matching up.  They don't,  I know.  But it can still work, it is just a bit more complicated.  As far as the  cell knowing or havingreen together for some time, it is likely but some may have been together longer then other members. I'll leave it to the group to decide, if the group has it is not more then 5 years or so.

Personally I do not mind that the systems do not match up exactly XP wise, they are different games. It is a pain in the buttocks at times to mix and match but it really wasn't intended. And as with almost all role-play games there are ways to min/max characters to your hearts content if that is what you so wish. I myself would rather enjoy the role-playing aspect than create a character that is going to "deal the most damage" or level up the fastest.

Even within the systems if you are using different resource books you could essentially create a vastly different looking rank character with the same 1,500 xp. I have seen within RT especially with the proper characteristic requirements PC's create devastatingly powerful rank 1 characters.

A skilled GM and a group of players following the God Emperor and not the God of XP and starting wealth will figure it out. Role-play is fun right? No real winning correct?

Of course this is very easy to say on the PC side of the game master panel. And of course anyone playing a Space Marine is frakking going to be dangerous as heck, but I find overpowering PC's becomes quite boring, quite fast. Give me an Adept with an auto quill and some proper mates over Astartes armor any day.

Let the doubters eat grox cake MKelly we can still be a team even if the stats say naught.

Well take for example the sisters of battle.  The power level between the handbook and the Blood of Martyrs book is significant.

If we have between 4 and 6 player characters. We can try to get give it a go.  Let's see how many we have.  I'm also open to suggestions or recommendations for the game.

Definitely interested. Can't nauseating run in a DeathWatch game myself...

Well we have only 1 so far. Let's hope we get at least 3 more.  I'll give it a few more days since this is a holiday weekend.

I thought I'd said I was interested before, but if not then I definitely still am very interested.

Good, that is 2.

In reply to MKelly (msg # 17):

Would DH2 be open for consideration? I know of efforts to update RT & DW to homeworld/background/role/aptitudes.

  I did consider DH 2.  Frankly I do not like the changes to well.  The 1st edition, has many options for character, now I must admit that the ex and level system is so messed up as to be moronic.  While that is fixed in 2nd edition,  I just do not like how the system is broken down.

I am up for running a RT character in a DH game.

I'm  interested to play :)

 I too, am interested in this.

Interested in lurking.

Interested but I lack the DH2 stuff.

It'd be running at 1st ed, not 2nd, so you should be okay.

I would totally be down to play some Dark Heresy 1st edition.

Alright folks,  I'll start to work up a thread for a game probably Wednesday.  Do we have any questions in the mean time?

Are you still accepting RT players?

With this many posts in the thread, it has become clear that there is definitely sufficient interest in this proposal to warrant creating a game.  Please save further discussion or questions for that game, created by MKelly, and linked to in the post immediately following this one.

Thank you.

Alright folks I've started a game thread.
link to another game

It is still a work in progress but we can start to get things sorted out.  If the link does not work the game is titled Dark Heresy The Emperor Protects.  In the sci-fi and fantasy catagories.
