Got a link to those tables user? out of professional curiosity.
Sounds interesting. Any storytimes you care to share user?
Chase Smith
oh boy, where to start
you want the story of the whole game (Only War -> Rogue Trader -> this) or just the shenanigans since it switched into that system?
Also, got some stories of your own to spin, OP?

Also, on-topic is preferred but storytimes are always welcome so if you want to give background go ahead.

To start out it's pretty much necessary to introduce the most important character of this campaign: Lieutenant Pentecost, the PCs' commander, closer to the collective will of the party rather than a simple NPC.
Our regiment are a bunch of stickler-for-the-rules honour-obsessed fortress worlders, and the Lieutenant was no exception.
One of the first things he did was challenge a commissar to a duel for impugning the regiment's honour (all properly documented so as to avoid allegations from any upstart replacements curious as to the reason for the blackened corpse of a Commissar showing up).
After a few more successes and a few utter defeats by the Orks, we ended up pinned (along with most of the rest of the Guard on Kulth) in Hive Roxis. Here, we managed to kill the bulk of an Ork assault by a strategic application of armour plating, snipers, and the Administratum thinking we were dead and thus not giving us orders until we re-established contact and (through some lucky Awareness rolls and a lot of trained snipers and long las) killed the Warboss. And every other Ork that tried to become Warboss. Enough times that the entire Ork host all decided they could take a chance of being Warboss and started killing itself.
So after this we were down to half strength and needed to merge in with another regiment to regain our numbers. The Major (promoted due to a staggering dead-Warboss count) decides that, for all the available options, he will find the single craziest thing on-planet: a superheavy tank regiment from the Lathes, involved in testing out new cyberised mounts for use in some Magos's personal guard.
(read: the players wanted tanks and fast support, so they took the Cavalry Mounts doctrine on a Superheavy regiment to merge in.)
This brings us to the topic of the thread. The GM decided to let us roll for how good these beasties would be, and one of the players immediately rolled a 1.
This was how the party first came across the Aurum Space Bats.
