heres the OOC thread for the RP.

sorry about the delay guys, ive been getting some coursework done.

i will have the game thread up and running by monday.

No problem DC. I just moved house so I wasn't able to get on the net for a while anyway. But now I'm back on and ready for action.

is it too late to add a bolt pistol and chainsword?
i ask only because ive been led to believe that is standard equip apparently.

and, lol, dc this is certainly an unorthodox killteam, very interesting.
a warhammer cruise, i can just see the ads now.
if it were movie it would be called 'kroot on a plane!'

hehehe, maybe we shoudl suggest the idea to hollywood.

youll have a chance to get more kit so dont worry about it

will put another update up soon, damn uni work getting in the way

Err...Siggy, you do know that the term 'round' refers to a single shell, right? I think you might mean 'magazines'.

no no nine, you are a space marine! short controlled bursts... :lol:

As spartacus said, Nine, he is a space marine....

(Didn't notice that mistake, shows that you should double-check what you type at 11 at night :rolleyes: )

++EDIT++ DC, could you change that in the character roster please. Don't want to be too short on ammo.

*ahem* Well isn't this RP just moving faster than a speeding bullet? I can hardly keep up! :rolleyes:

sorry, i was waiting for mol. Do you think i should just go on as if he was there or do we leave on the ship?

I'd say just keep rolling and assume Caetrus is there, but being quiet (I guess he's contemplating just how ugly he looks in black and silver :P).

hehehe. will put another update soon then

i had to dash off to lectures so heres a quick update.

He looks ugly all the time, to be fair.

DC: The only way to have a successful roleplay is to constantly update. If someone doesn't post, work around them. Carefully nurture those players that are participating, because they're a precious resource. Sorry that I haven't been around.

i couldve sworn i already posted this, but as i cant seem to find it...
im not exactly sure what you are asking of my character chappy.

yeah, reading through it i dont think i made it too clear...

basically hes at a control pannel for the doors.

hmmm...

looking at the RP at the moment i was wondering how people thought it was going?

what can be done to improve it?

please, dont hold back im new at the GMing side of things and getting some feed back would help me improve.

For the sake of keeping the game moving, one thing you should make sure to do is have everything happen for some kind of reason. For instance, I hope there's a reason for impeding our progress with the double set of pressure doors.

And with the current levels of motivation on DI, it's probably best to keep the RPs brief but fun.

sorry about the lengthy delay guys, ive been having wall to wall coursework deadlines.

for those who are still interested i will have an update done soon

sorry about the infrequent updates im in the middle of exams at the moment, so ill try to get updates up when i can.

my forum conscience reminded me that i might need to tell you guys this :P

I think your first absence might have lost the interest of most players.

Show of hands: Who is still around for this?

Still hanging round....

mua :D

Still present.

Looks like people around here are so desperate for a game, you haven't burned your bridges yet.

I do however suggest that everyone line up and kick you firmly in the testicles for pulling a Darth.

Then we can forgive you :).

*Kicks DC square in the left testicle*

You are absolved of your sins, my son. :P

Maybe you should have someone else to take over when you are absent. Unless you are coming back really soon.

ouch my testicle... damn you forum conscience!!!

whats 'pulling a a darth'?

Vanishing from your game without telling anyone that you will be absent, or why.

Alternatively it means throwing a hissy fit when you are losing an SRP :).

okay guys, Lith will be taking over whilst im up to my (now sore) testicles in books.

post in here if you still intend to play so that lith has an idea of who hes got to work with and which characters he has to control.

finally, from here on out characters will start dying. Please dont take this personally




right. i think thats me done.

have fun and ill be back in a couple of weeks

I'm up to speed now, if people want to get in a post before me, go for it. I'll put some stuff together tomorrow.

ok guys exams are done and with it my first year at uni :D

but now i just need to ask is it worth continuing with this RP? or did my unexplained and extended absence kill it?

im in still

Still waiting....

you guys have been amazingly patient and brilliant and i really appreciate this, so i leave it up to you guys...

shall i continue with just the two of you and npc the others, or would you prefer i end it and start something else?

Maybe dump this and start a new one. Have a report on what happened on the mission and have the 2 of them (and Apollo) meet up on a new mission. Build on what has happened. Unless some more people want to come back and join in again.

that sounds like a plan.

ill give people till friday to say wether or not they want to keep in this one and if its not going to be that many ill just end it and start a new one.

Sorry, bad case of exams. I'm still in.
I'll try to write my part tomorrow, time permitting :)

EDIT: Aaand didn't make it ...

You've definitely lost Nine and Mol.
