I know it hurts the eyes a little, but it is just like the psyker will hurt the ears.

So... When are we going to start this? I can't wait to find glory in the far reaches of the galaxy die horribly at the hands of a lovecraftian xeno abomination or a chaos-spawned monstrosity.

Maddness, all skill tests or whatever are d100 rolls. Rogue Trader doesn't use 2d10 for rolls except when specifically called for by an item or something.

And I don't think you can just roll without declaring what skill you're rolling, e.g. Common Lore Imperial Navy or whatever.

It's kind of a stretch to ask for a roll you don't even see coming. Like an awareness roll when people is trying to ambush you, because even if you fail you would now you failed something, which is contrary to the objective of an ambush.
However, in such a case scenario, I think awareness is the wrong skill. Perhaps evaluation or scrutiny would be best for what Duncan wants.

Rolling OOC for stuff you character may not notice IC, and failing, is fine if people keep the OOC/IC distinction strong and actively avoid metagaming.

Sorry for the 2d10 roll, was confuzzled. And I presumed I'd be testing against my common lore imperial Navy Skill.

As for tests, something like this, where My char would have fore knowledge, should be public rolls, along with rolls for him actively trying to do something (Ie remember about a particular ship). As for spotting an ambush or other perception or trap skills, usually in these sort of games the roll would be secret if my char doesn't do one actively. That is how I thought we'd work...

btw; when you guys roll, please post what characteristic used and total skill level (ie. [BS: 22+30(pointblank)+20(full automatic)= 72 vs [Roll]])

I don't think lascannons fit in back holsters. Think you have to carry them around in your hands.

Depends strongly on how well crafted is the lascannon. Astartes issue lascannons and guardsmen mounted lascannons are quite bulky, true, but it isn't unheard of of portable heavy weapons, whatever the means it may take.
