I like it. Croverus is my own bastardization of Corvus, and when I first started RPing my first character was Crow, the Harbinger of Doom.
Will get the template up tonight. You can begin character creation. Roll you Characteristics (2d10+20), and you can reroll one stat of your choice, but must take the second roll if you do. If you total (subtract 20 from all of them and add together) is less than 100 I'll allow you to reroll your 2 lowest scores.

What are the stats exactly?
After some research, this might come handy:

WS, BS, Str, Ag, Tough, Int, Per, Will, and Fell: 2D10+20 = [3, 10]+20 = 33
2D10+20 = [7, 7]+20 = 34

2D10+20 = [2, 8]+20 = 30
2D10+20 = [9, 5]+20 = 34
2D10+20 = [2, 8]+20 = 30
2D10+20 = [6, 2]+20 = 28
2D10+20 = [2, 6]+20 = 28
2D10+20 = [3, 2]+20 = 25
Re Roll that 25
_: 2D10+20 = [7, 8]+20 = 35
Total = 88
Re Roll two Lowest.
_: 2D10+20 = [10, 2]+20 = 32
2D10+20 = [1, 9]+20 = 30
Ok, so no exceptionally high stat, but nothing lower than 30. I will place them later.

I did all my choice by logic, since I don't know the system. What is the use of fellowship?
Re: Warhammer 40k Only War
Posted: Tue Apr 23, 2013 1:42 pm
by Donnigan
Fellowship, from what I remember from playing some Deathwatch, is People Skills. It's what you use with Deceive and talking stuff, and it also helps you get into "Squad Mode", at least in DW.

It is your ability to decieve, charm, befriend, and lead others. It is the skill you sue when interacting with others.
Also, where did you do your rolls? I do not doubt that that is what you got, i just want to see where you did them.

I did my rolls with real dice at home, if you'd rather I re-roll with some program I can, just say so and I will.

I believe you, it's more that I prefer having records of how rolls happened. I'm so used to rolls being made in the forum like on Giant in the Playground (Which I have had issues connecting to lately). Anyway, would you guys prefer I made rolls for you? Basically all of you state your desired actions, and I give a very clean and cinematic response of how everything in a round happens. The other option is you guys find an online dice roller where you can record when you rolled the dice and such (or if this forum has a dice roller we use that) and roll all your own things, and I apply modifiers secretly.

I'd say do the rolls yourself, it can speed the game in some occasions.

Awesome characters guys. Creation will be closed on Wednesday evening. Please have some fluff ready then. Also, do you guys want to start as green recruits (600 exp) or veterans of this young regiment (1800 exp)?
Note: If you are not a basic guardsmen (These are the basic Guardsmen Specializations: Heavy Gunner, Medic, Operator, Sergeant, Weapon Specialist) you only start with 300 exp so the veteran option would only have 1500 exp.

Going to be a weapon specialist, fighting with short range weapons. Going to finish my sheet today.
Fate roll:
_: 1D10 = [2] = 2
So 1 fate point.
Wounds roll:
_: 1D5+8-1 = [3]+8-1 = 10
So 10 wounds
