Intersting...But I dont know how much fun it would be to rp a marine....
Brother tarvus let us kill the heritic, purge the unclean and burn the mutant!
Yes brother clavus, death to the enemies of the imperium!
Die Alien, Die Heritic, Die Mutant...
Yes, Kill them.
Alright Brother Tarvus what is next?
Brother Clavus there is no next we kill more mutants, heritics and Aleins!
Ah yes Brother Tarvus forgive me for I have strayed from the guiding light of the empoerer.
That is true Brother Clavus, and for that the punishment is death....
"click click....KA-BLAM!" *Brother Clavus falls to the ground dead*
May the emporer have mercy on your soul.
Die Alien, Die heretic Die Mutant!!
d**n I wish I had more marine to kill all thiese mutants. aleins and Heretics.....*Brother Tarvus is over ran and is killed*
THE END.
Just my rendition of Space Marine Role Play

This is funny because I ran a campaign just like this using Cyberpunk as the gaming system. I based it on the book Ravenor using the idea that the Inquisitor sent his team ahead to take care of lesser things that didnt need his direct involvement. I thought it went really well during the time we played it. The only reason we stoped was because of the Worlds largest dungeon. I wouldnt mind doing it again with official rules because it was a little difficult trying to figure out how to adapt some things from 40k to cyberpunk.

Agreed that the life of a space marine can be rather tedious in RPG terms, though I would think the death watch would have the greatest variety of missions.
I like the idea of being part of the inquisition. It's funny that Ravenor was mentioned, as the progression listed in the summary is pretty much parallel with that of the Eisenhorn trilogy. Being a rogue trader could be a blast if they do it right.
Sadly though, as I was reading the news post, I actually found myself wondering whether or not they were going to make minis for the game...

In 40k if something is off, it can easily be explained in-universe as being because the Warp did it.

I played in Ventris's game. I have to say the setting was great fun and his GM style was imaginative, well thought out, adaptive and basically funny as hell. I played a type of medic - and having the 40k universe as a background worked really well.

Oh so in other words, you should have been the first person people shot at and killed.

I had some other skills....
Mostly I turned into an NPC cuase I wasn't able to show up and play. But when I did play, Foser and O'Hara got shot a hell of a lot more than I did.

All I have to say about that campaign is "I'll save you guardsmen (K-dawg's character)! Oops, sorry didn't see your leg there. You didn't need that leg right  >.>" |
