I don't doubt some of the comrades will have to perform tank desant, but I think we'll have to do with a single Chimera unless the GM splits us in two squads.

He did say we could be 2 squads or 1 big squad. 2 seems like the best fit or some of us are gonna be left behind or lose our comrades because of space constraints.

Rest of the squad rides on the Chimera, naturally. Sure, they're basically sitting ducks in colorful armor (plumage?), but it's war, you have to make some sacrifices.

Editing appearance and background later. Did the mechanical stuff because I'm used to it already. Edit: Done.

@GM: Can commissars/stormtroopers take Schola Progenium as their homeworld? It gives them Low and High Gothic as well as match the specialty better for background purposes. The cost is 3pt, same as Feudal World.

Yes, sure.

As for the transport thing, a Chimera has a capacity of 15, including 3 crew. Having two squads seems more prudent, unless somebody wants to hitch a ride on the armor.

Hax, Harb, any of you guys fancy being a sergeant? If not, the senior Commissar probably gets operational command.

I've never seen a commissar with WP that low holy crap. Hope Digitals turns out better so he can cover the psyker.

Appearance and background up barring some later minor additions/changes. Edited for Schola Progenium too, now he's weaker.

@Patrick: DH already had his sheet up a while before mine. "Covering the psyker" is not a matter of Willpower, it's in fact more about whether the player who is playing the psyker gets the Talents to avoid triggering Phenomena and Perils (Comrade Advances, Favoured by the Warp, Warp Lock and using the good ol' FP re-roll). I already talked to Powder and he's aware of the problems.

And on the weight part, you'll probably have to forgo reloads for the hot-shot lasgun. According to the rulebook and the errata, that ammo count of 30 comes at the expense of each battery weighing 10 Kg for some reason. Either the GM rules that's a bit of bullshit and allows them to weigh as much as a common pack or you'll have to carry 30 Kg of charge packs for 90 shots.

Better go back and look at his. But a full clip of ammo for a hotshot is still only 10% of the weight of the gun as far as I see in the rules book.

Not really. The hotshot uses a different system.
Quote from: Core Rulebook, pg.176
Hot-shot weapons use a 10 kg backpack power source rather than a standard plug-in pack, even for the smaller hellpistol.
Quote from: Living Errata, pg.37
Question: Does the Stormtrooper receive a backpack power source with his hot-shot lasgun?
Answer: Yes. As described in the entry for this item on page 176, the 10 kg backpack power supply comes with the weapon. This power supply provides it with the Clip value found in Table 6–9: Ranged Weapons, on page 174.

Right, Ive been looking at the vehicles, and the chimera has a crew of three and also holds 12 dudes with their gear.

Oddly enough, the same-sized recon variant has a crew of four and carries noone for 30KM out of combat, 5 in combat and 10 manuverability, while tit also has less weaponry, looses reliable and enclosed, and gains enhanced motive systems... It also looses the pintle mount... Who designed that thing?

Oh, what are we gonna mount on out chimera? Personally, I would say that we mount autocannon/heavy bolter/storm bolter...


We might also be able to get the option for the six lasguns on the sides...

I say we mount as much bolters on it as we can, given the choice.

I agree with Autocannon/Heavy Bolter/Storm Bolter-- the range on the Autocannon would be very nice, plus... bolters. bbbbolters

Autocannon for turret, hull-mounted heavy bolter and pintle-mounted storm bolter in my opinion. If we're expected to get into urban fighting or anything where the enemy is allowed far too much cover nearly all the time, we should get the hull-mounted heavy flamer instead. Not sure since we don't have the campaign's details.

Our heavy can man the turret's autocannon since he has the needed Solid Projectile training anyway.
