    No-forest: means we dont got to deal with those pesky eldar and tau hippies. ^_^
    Lava: Lots of volcanic activity for the mechanicus to harness. :D
    Crystal caves: shiny bits for the mechanicus, downside is we're more likely to have to deal with eldar pansies.
    water world: Hope you learned how to swim the pacific ocean, cuz your really gonna need it!

    What are all the types Urian will roll from.

    Hmmm maybe we can even make the list bigger by making suggestions for our Urian

    Possibly a world with no sun or little to no sunlight.
    or a world that is has 2 suns or maybe something even more exotic our Urian can come up with.

    Or a world with multiple moons.

    @Uriel1339 after some consideration I'll go with the Dominator Class Crusier.
  4. Uriel1339 Uriel1339 Lord of Posts

    Yes my favorite class ship! :D I hope you can use it as wisely as Tiberius did in Warriors of Ultramar ^_^

    Nova Cannon ftw.
    No char sheet as of now. Most likely it will run into most basics of basics though:

    Name
    Gender
    Affiliation:
    Adeptus Mechanics, Imperial Navy, Imperial Guard, etc. Whatever faction you belong.
    Home/Homeworld (could be regiment, trained world, etc. so for example as an Adeptus Mechanicus person even though you were born on Planet-XYZ, you may put here 'Mars' if you had been trained there)
    Equipment (please only list if you have anything noteworthy. Chainswords, Knives, other basic equipment does not need to be listed. If you have a power weapon though, please name it. Same counts for exceptionally/named weapons)
    History (be as brief or as detailed if you like, I just demand this so you actually think about your char and make some sentimental bond to him/her)

    No idea may need @CommissarGaunt for that. Although was thinking your 3 cruisers and your battleship are the only military force, well besides the AdMech escorts. But they don't belong to you anyway. I was thinking several civilian ships to hold as many people and food as possible and obviously transporters for the IG to get them to the ground.

    I fear due to the strong presence of the AdMech, that would really be not necessary. I suggest something else. Perhaps a Quartermaster in the PDF so @Vanestus has someone? ^.^

    Mymeara attacked an Iceworld to recover a Phoenix Lord.... :p Your argument is invalid.
    Also Crystal Caves.... Hammerhead Aliens here we go!

    I will do 6 rolls:

    #1 - System Size
    1d10 will determine how many planets there are

    #2 - System Star
    1 = Red Giant
    2 = Blue Giant
    3 = White Dwarf
    4 = Red Dwarf
    5 = Blue Dwarf
    6 = Twin Stars (Red & Blue)

    #3 - Moons
    1d10 will determine total moons in the system, I will distribute them as I see fit.

    #4 - Planet Types (for each) - 1d7:
    1 = Waterworld (90% water)
    2 = Barren / Wasteland (incl. deserts)
    3 = Forestworld (90% forests)
    4 = Iceworld / Frozen World
    5 = Normal (Mixed)
    6 = Gasworld
    7 = Lavaworld

    #5 - Major Planet Trait (for each) - 1d8:
    1 = Deathworld (massive beasts everywhere!)
    2 = Low water reservoirs
    3 = Has Non-Imperial Artifacts
    4 = Mineral rich
    5 = Low Gravity
    6 = Unstable Core
    7 = Has Imperial Artifacts
    8 = High Gravity

    Other attributes such as day/night cycle and what not will be determined throughout the RP itself.

    Did I ever say where we will settle? If not, then I will go with Segmentum Ultima most likely, somewhere on the 'northern' border probably. Oh and also... Obviously I will leave it then up to you which planet you will choose for a proper colonization :p
  5. Tech-Captain Drakka TechCaptain Arkhona Vanguard

    Uour missing other kinds of Death Worlds and Dead worlds. We could hav settled in the core of a particularly large Astroid. And some of those moons could have world traits. Look at Endor.
  6. you wouldent make a colony on a dead world.
    and only use deathwords if they either have high purpose sciencecy stuff or to train grand soldiers.
    Large astoroid would be a mining endevour.
    We are a colony, i think we want to become hives :p
  7. A once thriving human world, struck by the tragedy of Old Night and their civilization retaken by nature and the elements.
    A sub-sector of 3-6 planets will be adequate. Anything more and I will us the main guns to deduce them to cosmic dust!
    A Blue Star would be unique, but a binary star would mean plenty of asteroids... I think?
    Lets just focus on the moons of our colony world to start.
    Either a forest world or a Normal (Mixed)
    Has Imperial Artifacts! Adds to the mechanicus' interest in the place. But can we still have giant monsters? Monster Hunting is fun after all.
  8. Fox Vulpas Well-Known Member

    Will we see things like asteroid belts?

    and imperial artifacts could interests Ecleshariachy or possibly even the freeblade if it has something to do with knights.

    If the world has Massive beasts, My knight has something to train on and possibly others or possibly something for us to harvest.
  9. Uriel1339 Uriel1339 Lord of Posts

    You have to choose what the hell you want, I only gave the roll-mechanism of how I generate planets ^^

    You are obviously missing that I make the moons as I see fit and that you are not forced to populate a planet but very well could pick a moon for a olony. and Which other Death worlds and Dead worlds?

    Death worlds are as far as I know any world which are very very very deadly. Commonly due to the beasts there, look at Catachan.

    And Barren/Wasteland is the kind of Dead world where there is nothing just a dead, brown rock.

    Let's see what the dice will say and what my own mind will add to it :p

    Da hell I know if you will see asteroid belts or not :p
  10. Tech-Captain Drakka TechCaptain Arkhona Vanguard

    Due to Beasts, Plants, Radiation, Gravity Spikes, Toxic, strangee seismic activity just to name a few more dangers. Oh the aur could even be killer.
