"The Fallen are revealed to all but I don't feel that's canon" Edition
For all your questions on Dark Heresy (1st and 2nd Editions), Rogue Trader, Deathwatch, Black Crusade, and Only War. Not the wargame, not Chapter Master, not Space Hulk.
Not sure between starting Dark Heresy 1e and 2e? Pick 2e.
>Why did FFG lose the 40k RPG License? Because they were bought by Asmodee and that caused some sort of licensing conflict.
>Will GW make their own 40k RPGs now? Probably not. But if they do it will likely be worse than you could possibly imagine.
There is a new Homebrew Megafolder option in above MEGA directory containing several things.
40K RPG tools, a site that contains stats or references for almost all weapons, armor and NPCs/adversaries. Not updated past DH2 core. 40krpgtools.com/
40k RPG Combined Armory (v6.48.161023), containing every piece of gear in all five lines. Now includes all DH2e books. mediafire.com/folder/i3akv9qx9q05z
As a GM, what is the biggest fuckup you've done? Maybe a bad description of an area, or a screwup on power levels against the players?
Alexander Brooks
Suppose someone Lightning/Swift Attacks my PC. My PC parries most of the hits with a power sword, and successfully destroy the enemy's weapon, but one or two still gets through. Do those extra hits still happen? Does that opponent roll the same damage dice, or does their weapon count as some shitty half-melted bludgeon instead?
Henry Williams
Resolve it sequentially. If the sword breaks, the other hits fail.
Levi Rivera
Would you let the attacker continue punching/kicking?
Connor Martin
>screwup on power levels against the players? Oh boy did my GM do this last session. He dropped an entire rhino full of World Eaters on a freshly generated cell of acolytes. If that isn't pants on head retarded, nothing is. And to boot, he probably did it just because the psyker bbeg he was hyping got downed in one single round of combat thanks to a well aimed sniper shot.

Change gm asap

Unfortunately we're stuck with him for at least another week. We do a 2 week on/off rotation of D&D and DH2. I'm trying to figure out a tactful way to say "You dun fucked up" that wont result in him cancelling the session right out. Really he shouldn't be GM'ing in the first place if I'm being honest. Lots of red flags.

>As a GM, what is the biggest fuckup you've done? Moving onto Ascension. Fuck Ascension.
Sebastian Gray
Some buds and I are hoping to start up an Only War campaign. We're in the early prep phases here still, just bouncing ideas around, so everything is far from set in stone.
We're all fairly experienced RPers, but the group would like me to DM, and I haven't done so before. Is OW going to be rough for me? Should I try to push more towards DH, which I (maybe wrongly) perceive as being more traditional.
Any advice for a rookie to the rpg aspects?
Anthony Moore
I'd say Only War should be easier to GM, if only because there are limits to what the PCs can do without getting BLAMMED by a commissar and they're expected to follow orders, while inquisitorial acolytes have significant leeway on what they can get up to.
