Already took it up with him, perfectly fine.

Ty, please clear out inbox space. You're full.
Huh, your right I am.....psychic....
The deed is done
:smallsigh: REALLY hate to do this...
Ty, Space Mareines are all female. Noxxious can't be a male space mareine, and if he's not a space mareine, he wouldn't be able to wear terminator armor.
ACTUALLY
Inquisitors can wear Terminator armour.
Well, Ordo malleus ones can.
Little bit of nitpick:
It's okay that everyone knows an Inquisitor is on the planet some way or another (word gets around and all that), but I'd like if his shuttle and actual starship remain hidden for now. This is a request, and if you can figure out a suitably cool way to discover their whereabouts it will probably be okay.
And no, Terminator armor is not limited to SMs in the 40k canon. Inquisitors and at least one Witch Hunter that I can recall have access to it as well, albeit in a lesser form. Sisters of Battle probably have some as well, although I can't confirm that.
Huh, didn't know that.
But anyway, am I right in assuming that the Ponynid forces are scattered, not really having a central main force on the planet yet when pooled all together is still a menacing threat?
Allow me to rephrase. Size wise, are they an intimidating force (or atleast comparable to there normal planet invasion standards when it comes to ground forces).
The Unclear-naming-conventionids are fairly dangerous at all times, but their only planetary threat is the main hive, which did manage to make it to the surface in a location of Lix's choosing.
It's sort of like separating three different squads: two have regular guns and one has a sergeant and plasma rifles. They're all going to be a threat but the latter is much MUCH more dangerous.
Oi, is it to late to join this thing? If not, Is there a spot open for a Dark Eldeer raiding fleet finding this little ball of joy?
Yay.Quote:
If ye want.
...
's gettin' crowded in here, eh?
Ahem.
I shall be Archon Arlseares, raiding master of Arlseares Flayskins.
SpoilerHe was heading for a major shipping fleet, but belived this would be a nice warm-up. However, he is now focused on getting as much as he can out of this planet before all goes to the warp, due to there being so many factions here at one time.
As for his army, besides the normal solders, he prides himself on his trio of Haemonculi he controls. Along with those maniacs, there creations range from hollow boned perytons (Scourges), terrible and evil wracks, and the horrific mechine called fondly by the troops a "Gorgan." A body like a bull plated with thick sheets of metal, its gaze has been inhanced to produce effects much like Basilisk, turning all it sees into stone. Along with this group of horrors straight from the minds of the Dark Eldeers best, Arlseares has a group of Xenos for protection. Called Rock Wolves, these blind beasts have long, sharp claws that go through flesh and stone easily.
As a whole, it is a very small but elite army, with a abnormal staying power due to the varying beasties under the Archons command. Also, they dont have a base on the ground yet, and have no true ground transport. Its a raiding fleet, not a army.
Rippers: Parasprites.
Hive Tyrants: Vessel of the Hive. Appears as a normal pony, but can mutate pretty much on whim. Has parts of their original personality, but, as their name suggests, are mostly just The Hive-which is made of EVERY personality.
Carnifexes, Trygons and Other Big Things: Pretty much the same as warhammer canon, or some other large scary monsters.
Everything in between: Ponies, but often with added spikes.
I'm drawing on tyranids with a little bit of Borg here, and adding some random other bits cause I feel like it.

Somepony, at some point, is going to win this campaign. Only way to do that (in true 40K fashion) is to beat everypony that opposes them. Would they just have to destroy the entire fleet? How exactly would this force be driven off of the planet?
Realy, any long-range weapon in large numbers could snipe off most of this army. As I posted, this army is low in numbers but is filled withvery powerful individuals. The whole thing relies on the existance of a few key groups of units. If one is lost, they lose any advantage they could have gained from it. They dont have any land transport, and by fleet I mean 2-3 ships, max. Alot of the heavy hitters are not as duriable as one would expect, so a machup against the Duo would be nearly impossiable to get out of without heavy losses.
They dont have to be limited to enquines. Acid spitting insectoid giraffes and armored tankish elephants could all be nasty things.Quote:

Just remember to stay away from the beasts shown in the show, because Chaos needs love too. I am certain that Rhinos would make great deamons for Khorn, and that Chimeras are too messed up to not be Tenzichian servants. A literal reskined Manticore would make a rather off-putting Slanishi beasti ( look out for that tail!), and.... lumbering putrifing bears for nurgal? Even the most evil bear loves her cubs.Quote:
Truuue. I'll probably stick to species we've seen in the Ponyhammer universe though...
Wait! From outside the galaxy! Nvm I'll use anything that seems cool. xD
Thanks for the thought!
Meh, worth a shot. At least we would be seeing massive rotting piles of bear flesh lumbering towords doomed ponys while pony sized cublings leak out of the putrid rips and holes on it, slowly filling the landscape with pus and other nasty things, while a half-insane Chimera argue with themselves(?) about the details on there plan on ending creation a planet away.:smallsmile:
Griffons could be a Xenos species used by the empire, al la Ogron, but more compitent, because they just dont scream " just as planed!" OR "blood for the blood god!" to me, nor do they seem stupid.
Oooh, I agree with that post.
On a roll, baby.:smalltongue:Quote:
Oooh, I agree with that post.
Edit: I dont want to sound like I am stroking my own ego, but do we have a better plan for chaos forces? If not, I could do a full write up on them, seeing that it could be needed to work this setting.
A) This should really go in the fluff thread.
B) It's largely true that, aside from demons, everything Chaos controls brings itself about in life. In Dark Crusade, almost all of Chaos' units either are still human (SMs included as humans) or were human at some point (the exceptions being the Defiler, which is a machine possesed by a demon, and the Bloodthirster, which is brought about by the sacrifice of one of your units but is a demon in it's own right). It could simply be the same truth here. The Daemons don't neccesarily need to be creatures from the show, but chaos space marine forces and cults could make use of pretty much anything. :smalltongue:
A). Yes, it realy should. Do you approve of it, by any chance?Quote:

B). I am not sure if Dark Crusade is canon on where Deamons come from. Sacraficing units to get a better one is a fun mechanic. Is is true in 40k?
Nope.
As for deamons not needing to be things from the show: Whats the fun in that? We have so much to work with!:smallbiggrin:
Ahh, okay. Your post was a little vauge on the subject.:smallsmile:Quote:
Daemons in Dark Crusade still come from the warp - i was talking about army composition.
Well, yes, there would be more mortals than warp-shells in most armys, but that when it gets a mite bit tricky. The three main "types" of chaos armys ( chaos mareines, the cults, and the deamons themselves) all have there own compositions. Naturaly, a deamon would ( or could) be brought about by sacrafices to the dark gods. Its just that they tend to be rather fluctuating in what there numbers are or what they are capiable of. I just wished to create a groundwork for chaos deamons, considering they tend to be rather fun fluff-wise.
