Oh you guys are so helpful!

The above was an internet meme, alright? I'm good on the 40k lore front.

[Qeztotz]

no, we just dont get out much
were bored stiff
(well i am anyway)

[Qeztotz]

++Im considering sending messages to everyone when a new turn starts. What do you guys think of this?++

[Palamedes]

Good idea Qeztotz, it'll make sure people are aware that the turn's come around. It might also be worth letting active players command the unit of someone who isn't around or posting here, to prevent the game from stagnating.

I will take two giant space marine steps backwards (firing both times), and then use two command points to prepare to overwatch once again. If nobody else is using the command points I'll use them to fire four shots at the door/genestealer alliance across the hallway as well.

[insanityIncarnate]

The genestealing scum is no match for our union, brothers!
*Insanity shall back up into the North(?) corridor while facing South(?)*
*Also, I have no clue what overwatch is, but it sounds like a good idea right now or something. So do that I guess*

On the 1st page vvv

Overwatch
a space marine may be put into overwatch for 2 action points
the space marine will fire at any genestealer that crosses his path, the downside of this is that his gun may jam from the high rate of fire he is pumping out
a space marine will fire at all genestealers that spend an action point when in veiw of this space marine
he will fire in the normal way but an extra dice will be rolled after he has completed one set of firing, this is a jam dice
there is a single face on the die that will cause a jam
the marine will be unable to fire until the jam is cleared and is immediately taken off overwatch
a space marine must spend 1 action point to clear a jam
if a marine is engaged in combat by a genestealer he is immediately taken off overwatch

[Doofaeus]

I will move up three spaces and enter overwatch. (Expending 1 command point I believe)

[Askia]

im not sure moving forward alone is a good idea, but i dont want them to flank us either

[Palamedes]

Aiska, there's still an enemy there. If you move back one (which uses up two of your moves) and set up overwatch we should be fine. Then if there's nothing there next turn, you can move up an follow us.

[Kocel232]

Okay, made up my mind. I take a step forward, turn around, and enter this fabled "Overwatch", waiting for Xeno scum to dare cross my lawn hallway.

EDIT: This should take 3 of my 4 points, if I'm not mistaken. 1 for the movement and 2 for the Overwatch. I guess I can use the fourth to shoot any aliens if they rush past me after Overwatch activates?

[Qeztotz]

sorry kocel, that point is wasted since any movement or shooting whilst in overwatch immediately make overwatch disengage
EDIT: this actualy takes up 1 command point because turning 180 takes 2 points

[Qeztotz]

++Im now going to message when a new trun starts, and palamedes' idea now stands for after 3 days have passed. (i will post to tell you when three days are up) These changes take place after the next turn begins++

[Galloglasses]

Also Qeztotz, can you perhaps make the names more apparent to which terminator model is which? Adeon Abadecous and Dastillor are all in a row off to the side and its not clear which goes to which termy and it gets a tad confusing.

Anyway.

>Go behind Adeon who I believe has just turned a corner TOWARDS THE MASSIVE AMOUNTS OF GENESTEALERS IN THE ROOM TO THE RIGHT

FOR DA EMPRAH

[Qeztotz]

++In the absence of fragowump I have left him where he is, but have neglected to attack him out of sympathy++
++Orders recieved++

++in the south a lot of fumbleing goes on and things are looking like they did before only askia has moved up one place and makuta and insanity have swithced places and things......... Adeon takes 2 steps backwards fires at the door but fails to harm it and engages overwatch. Brother Bulkheadus paces forwards turns around and activates overwatch. Sergeant Cohtez advances to Fragowump and takes up overwatch. Dastillor advances down the corridor like theres no tommorow. (which there might not be) Brother Abadecus turns onto the corridor faceing the room with a scarily large ammount of genestealers in it, and neglects to activate overwatch. ??? does some stuff++
++A lot of shit happened in the genestealer turn, so much shit even im shell shocked from it. For starters 2 blips moved onto the board, one in the highly frequented upper right and the other keeps its friend happy down at the lower right. Now comes the shitload of bollocks. The second blip in the room full of genestealers reveals 3 more of em. 3 of the 6 in there now storm out to the left towards the objective. The other three charge. The first charges at Abadecus, and after avoiding overwatch fire from Bulkeadus kills Abadecus outright (but he shall never be forgotten!) the second attempts to charge at Bulkheadus but is killed on the second volley. But whilst killing him his gun jams! the third stalks up to him unimpeded but is unable to engage yet++
++Henceforth the ??? guy is to be commanded by the collective dead, which for now is just GalloGlasses (hard luck man)++
++space marines get 4 command points this turn++

[Fragowump]

How much fire can I use so that we can still cover the needed areas?
Cause I think I'd like to kill that genestealer in front of Bulkheadus, or I'd like to move forward and to the right so Cohtez can shoot with overwatch.

[makuta]

Move forward 4 spaces.

[Ross_Varn]

Move forward as far as possible to the left side objective. Let's do this.

[Kocel232]

(Okay, be warned, my Space Marine RP is probably really, really bad. I hope none of you hardcore WH40K fans are too attached to your hair, as you'll likely be tearing it out.)

"By the Emperor's- ABADECUS! DIE, XENO-SCUM!"

Bulkheadus showers the enemy with the fury of at least three and a half suns. He curses, however, as his gun jams.

"BATTLE BROTHERS! MY WEAPON IS JAMMED! I NEED COVERING FIRE!"

Bulkheadus unjams his gun and takes a step backwards while firing. This should leave me with one point. Thus, I am requesting a single command point in order to go Overwatch again. If not, I suppose I just spend that last turn firing at Genestealers. I leave this decision to my superior officer.

[Qeztotz]

++In answer to Fragowumps question, you need 9 flames and you have 12 in your current pack, you have a second pack for reloading, dastillor has the same++
EDIT that was rather stupid of me, ignore the arse speech that used to be here

[Askia]

i feel like i shouldnt move for now tho O.o

[Galloglasses]

where the blue blazes did ??? go to on the image?

[Qeztotz]

it is now labeled with your name galloglasses, when more players die he shall be labeled "dead" but for now he is you

[Galloglasses]

ah all right then.

Abadecaus now proceeds to move back one step and engage overwatch. Facing the direction he had just retreated from.

Just in case I end up facing behind me like a retard and get nommed by a genestealer from behind.

[Doofaeus]

Bulkheadus you are authorized the use of one command point.
askia stay there.

I really can't do much until frag moves but once he does I'm covering that right hallway.

[Kocel232]

Bulkheadus you are authorized the use of one command point.

Alright then, Bulkheadus brings the thunder, ending his turn with Overwatch, using one command point.

Just to repeat my orders: unjam gun, one step back while firing, then go Overwatch using one command point.
