Serious warhammer 40k

[Scone !]

Yo this is a recyclable event even, exploring different parts of the lore, yeah maybe? We could do this every few months and do another take. That'd be fuckin neato.

I'd also like to add without being a sneaky edit-poster, there's concern about the lore. There's a HUGE amount of lore, yes, so it's quite likely attendees would have to learn a bit. HOWEVER if we do it like individual battles and scenes we can get away with sneaky bare-basics of each scene I think, mix it up with different foes.

Really content's the big problem but I know a guy who made a proper WH40K server once, like SSTRP but 40K, content was good. Maybe I can get in touch after a few years.

its not really worth even trying, we've got enough people voting no that its just not worth putting the time in to. lets instead turn this thread around and discuss what available sci-fi options we have other than star wars and if star wars is fully desired

i'm up for star trek, honestly.

i've been involved in some similar sci-fi BRIDGE rp schemas before and they were all awesome

I'd love to play as a imperial guardsmen in an RP. I had always wanted a server that was based around trench-warfare with imperial guardsmen, but I'm fine with whatever setting.

if wh40k goes through who are we gonna fight?
it'd be pretty awesome to see human Tau soldiers since they are established lorewise iirc

Given the lore of 40k if we play PDF/imp Guard we could fight ANYTHING, hell, we could fight everything at the same time without it being seriously lore breaking.

too big of a disparity between votes. 12-7 yes-no is just not suitable. lets get some more ideas opened in the suggestions section and revisit this one at a later date with a more refined idea a la planetary defense force combating a warp storm or something akin to it

 

[Scone !]

Personally I think this should sit on the backburner for a while as we just wrapped up a military RR. 12-7 is still a good ratio to the benefit for the yes crowd because not every setting is for everyone, this is just being proposed far too close to another somewhat similarly themed setting to really see any interest.

Those of us here who do want to see this are pretty heartfelt about it, WH does that to you, but it'd take a lot more work than the others for sure. I'm definitely interested in pushing it though once we can secure some proper assets and smooth you what we'd do.

Maybe we'd just do well to not overthink too far ahead of ourselves until the next already-planned RR is over with, though.

fight tyranids.

im a bit skeptical about people portraying space marines properly though...

Play as Imperial Guard.

Live, fight, die for your Emperor.

Who needs Space Marines?

Die by the thousands just to gain one foot of ground.
