The Inquisition makes for better stories than the Space Marines, so much more dramatic and personal. Have you read any of the novels?

Yeah, most of the stories she and my other friend have are about how easy it is to get killed or go insane.

And yes, I've heard about it, there isn't much information about it. Ultramarines movie, lame. Needs more Inquisition.

That's a pretty good idea. We did that when I GM'd, but my game didn't last long enough for it to really have any effect. We've only played one session with the new GM. Two of the characters were rolled up last minute and just dumped into the game as fillers, but hopefully they'll come back for another go. The psyker and the sister are definitely going to be back though. We had an assassin that ditched who was from a death cult that strictly dictated his daily life, but he didn't show up.

I'll let her know of your suggestion. She's used to Call of Cthulu, the characters she's played never had any super developed backgrounds and she intends to kill everyone frequently, so that's probably why we never did that.

I'm not sure how this current game's gonna go. She hasn't even gotten an outline of what she wants to happen, but she wants it to have a well defined plot. I think I'd be fine fighting orks, demons, and dinosaurs like we have been though.

I was the GM of the previous game. I had a really interesting guardsman who shot first and asked questions later. A space marine eventually killed him during a hostile occupation of a hive city when like eight different factions descended on the planet to find a warp artifact. In the previous campaign they fought a lesser demon that hadn't quite gotten all his power back up and his first instinct was "where's my truck, I wanna hit it," so he rams a truck into the demon, knocking it down and barreling through the cathedral they were at before the demon got up and tossed the truck down the hill.

Hmm, interesting. Like I said, I'm very unacquainted with specific chapter lore. But that's pretty cool.

Black Templars are pretty intense. And I thought that model you linked was the current one. I guess I'll have to look for the newest one then for comparison. I'm more knowledgeable with regards to the daily lives of Imperial citizens and that sort of deal as the Inquisition is my favorite nonOrk faction.

Dark Heresy was a great idea. My girlfriend runs that game you read about on the forum, I'm the Sister of Battle that the psyker on our team keeps trying to kill indirectly.

I hate seeing space marines without helmets. It wouldn't be so bad if the minis had a helmet in their hands or strapped to their pack or something. But why would a marine knowingly walk into combat without his helmet?!

Not too bad, looks expensive. The colors make it look a little funky, they're not very cohesive. Though everything else looks fine. Maybe find a suitable helmet.

There's not a whole lot to work with. I was surprised to find a bolt pistol and chainsword.

That's what it is right now. So good that you thought of what I intended. I mentioned the Inquisitor or ship master as possible future avatars.
