Title: Hello there chaps, been a while.

Fellow Inquisitors,

I've been away for a bit - what did I miss? I recall us moving over from the old green 'clave and then, uh... not too much after that. What are the current big storylines on the IC side of things, what projects are ongoing, etc?

I'd forgotten I can still hide messages. Most good.
Rob.

(yes, this is lazy of me)

Well, IC:

- We're still working on the Carthaxian Conclave, which now has its own wiki (http://carthax.wikispaces.com/). It's been a backdrop to the Tournaments, as well as specifically providing the settings for three events:
-- The Succession: The death of the head of the Carthaxian Conclave, Inquisitor Lord Marcus Grolin, who was replaced by Inquisitor Lord Calleia
-- The Antonine Amulets: A war for/against Xenotech cold trade, which eventually ended up strengthening it
-- The Saint: A possible living saint showed up in the middle of the prolonged war on a fortress world and there was lots of fighting over her. Eventually, someone shot at her with an orbital las-lance, although nobody's entirely sure if this actually killed her.
- We're currently on the wave of a bit of a resurgence in the RP section, where we've got a few RPs ticking over.
- And there's been Dark Heresy and Rogue Trader games bubbling away in the background.

Projects-wise:

- Lots really, so I can't really do it all justice without slighting someone else by forgetting them. We've got a lot of 28mm scale stuff in the P&M section now, there's increasingly mad Inquisitor scale vehicles like Tessio Niri's Chaos Dreadnought/my own Warhound Titan, we're still managing to find new and different combinations of Inquisitor parts over ten years on, a lot of people have been having fun with the Tehnolog 54mm plastics... like I said, a lot.

The In Character forum is a lot quieter than you will remember Rob.  There are a couple of active threads at the moment, but some are slower than others! There hasn't been a big arcing all-encompassing storyline in a goodly while. In the last couple of years the Conclave has sort of turned on its head, with the IC part becoming quieter than the tabletop game related stuff. This is hardly a bad thing though, as some of the models being produced by our members are outstanding, and the dedication to the Carthax sector is giving extra meaning to the Conclave meets at WHW. We had three last year, including the IGT.

Dark Magenta is still producing excellent material for the community, and it's probably of interest to you that there's some brainstorming going on about a Monodominant Sourcebook in the Dark Millennium forum. How far did you get with your attempt on it? I'm sure any and all input will be welcomed.

Good to have you back Rob
