Re: DH: Game Proposals

Would anybody be interested in a game focusing over a single event in a short period of time? Something like the take down of a heretic cell. I'm thinking the planning and surveillance aspect and then a firefight. It could lead on to a further campaign if everyone enjoyed themselves.

Re: DH: Game Proposals

I have to get my WFRP game going first but I'll start thinking about how this would work. I imagine it would be things like do you set up a two man OP in the building across the street or do you try and bug the building? I'd try and make it so that there are more options than resources and your actions leading up to the take down will have an effect on how it turns out.

Re: DH: Game Proposals

I would definately be interested in participating. Give me a chance to get a feel for how DH plays by post and get some work done fleshing out a potential new character!

Re: DH: Game Proposals

I've got the book, but the games I've been in had died before the first combat.

Would like to try assassin or tech.

Guardsmen for me! I'm pretty novice at DH, which kinda sucks when I'm a big 40k fan.

Re: DH: Game Proposals

I  thinking that it would be best to run Dark Heresy Games in one shots or like comics 1-4 or 1-8, small arcs.  The premiss is very simple, bounty hunters working for Ferran Ghast (For any one with Disciples of the Dark Gods this makes perfect sense).

Ferran Ghast was once one of the finest Inquisitors the Emperor had in his service then after a particular mission he vanished for seven years, upon his return he was not the same man, a special unit was sent to assassinate him and was destroyed.  The Inquisition has confirmed that Ghast uses highly capable and dangerous vassals to support his condsiderble abilities.  He is also suspected of forming highly dangerous organizations of infiltrators and assassins that answer personally to him.

I am very new in a sense to Rpol I started  months ago but stopped for a good half a year before starting to play again.  I just began to start Inquisitor Ubertas Venator (Dark Heresy) bounty hunters of Inquistors.  They would be simple missions that could start up and end within a month or so. Although I would keep a hard copy file of the character, and send him or her rmail messages when new missions that would suit him or her arise.  It would be like comic book writers hiring certain artists for certain stories, in the RTJ you could make it very clear what kind of dark mission you want to run, and we could get pretty dark if I have the right allies.

 But my Proposals is that if there is a GM that could handle the gears and combat and psyker situations when they arise.  I'm not sure even how to work the GM screen yet, but I have a tremendous amount of time available on the comupter.  I own a gallery in the Cascades and this is the slowest time of year I sit for hours without a customer.  So if I could have some one helping out with the missions.  I could fill in with all the Pathos possible.  I could keep the story moving at a tremedous rate, on top of having a great amount of time on line, I also only require four to five hours of sleep, so again like I said, if there is a GM that wants to run short well structured stories that move at a comic book pace please Rmail me or post a reply that might aid me in a mission to destroy the false hope that is the Inquistion and evil monarch Emperor and false idol. It wouldn't really be a Co-Gm it would be something that came to a certain GM's mind that he or she wanted to run that fit the scene but they didn't have the time to flesh the bones.  You could hand pick the players that apply, like I said you would be the author hiring an artist, and in Rpol certain names are already famous or infamous.

Re: DH: Game Proposals

I'm probably going to throw my hat in the GM arena, once I get my feet fully under me here on RPOL and settle some rl issues. I'll keep you all informed when I have something in the works, probably in a month or so.

Re: DH: Game Proposals

I'm actually running a game like that right now. But due to the ammount of people (and some of whom the posting has slowed down) the game is only crawling forward right now.

still fun though! :D
