Interesting setting - what types of people are your other players making?
Thank you for the welcome!
There are two other players:
- One is creating a warband led by a former Imperial pilot who crashed on the planet after his ship malfunctioned. Survived the impact he spent weeks living in solitude in the wreck of his ship. During that time he developed a hysterical and irrational personality. After meeting a local communiqué he gathered a small following to head up the coast to be baptized in the waters.
- The other is preparing a warband led by a monodominant inquisitor who lost contact with the subject DV66, an infil-traitor previously sent on Sagaraya to retrieve data on the latest rumors.
I leave a lot of freedom to the players regarding the bg of their warbands.
I decided that it will turns out that one of the followers of the Imperial pilot is actually DV66.

The rules are quite... big? There is a lot of rulebook, and a lot of rules, but if everyone is happy to spend a day playing a few games, the characters are quite simple, and no-one is super-focused on getting every rule correct, it isn't so difficult.
There are a few reference sheets and player aids in the pinned posts on the Game Discussion subforum, which might make your life easier.
Thank you, i've already found some .pdf that will be really helpful!
We don't mind too much about rules and we don't have problems if we decide to skip some in order to improve the flow of the game.

Community News and Announcements / A new fellow acolyite
Last post by Manny Calavera - June 26, 2023, 11:03:40 AMHello conclave!
My name is Stefano, writing from northern Italy. It has been since the covid19 outbreak that I would like to play Inquisitor.
I am going to master our first Inquisitor game before the end of July with two fellas. We're all new to the system and we're going to play on 28 mm scale.
The sceario is set on a planet called Sagaraya. The main part of the surface is covered by oceans. Many voices talk about a new cult regarding the "baptism of the water" which sees many worshippers traveling to wash their sins on Sagaraya's waters.
The idea born from a terrain found in the gaming club we use to meet.
Here and here you can see a NPC i converted and painted. His name is Iago and it is a water ambulant seller.
Hope our first game would be fun as we're having now preparing the story and the warbands. I'm a little bit scared by the rules but I feel confident it will be a success anyway!

Last post by Cortez - June 25, 2023, 06:51:09 PMI think the end result was very much a draw, with lots of fun and craziness on the way. I had a thoroughly enjoyable day overall, with Isabella's head being the usual magnet for ranged attacks and plenty of psychically induced chaos. Good to see a new face too.

Last post by TheNephew - June 24, 2023, 06:36:10 AMI missed the earlier train, they canceled the later one.
Not going to make it to St Pancras in time, or to Nottingham.
Heartbreaker.
Have a good time saving the Emperor's soul!

Good news everyone, I made it.
Bad news everyone, I don't think we saved the Emperor's soul.
Sure did battle for it though.

Inquisitor Game Discussion / House Nepotem - The Heist
Last post by TheNephew - June 22, 2023, 12:13:57 PMCalm "Skyline" Belle Nepotem
Overwatch/fire support/driver
Flak jacket, congenital frailty, bionic head, heavy stubber.
I'm planning on Calm being very frail, but very perceptive and quick-thinking.
Also she has nearly the biggest gun I think it it reasonable to put on the table.
My main concern, as I've missed this balance point before, is:
How do I finagle the Toughness so that she is frail, but won't go out of action catching a single lasround as soon as the fight starts?
I've run T30 characters that get destroyed by low BIVs.
Secondarily, she's professional criminal/Inquisitorial fire support, so highly competent BS seems reasonable... but I don't really want to reduce one character per turn to leaded meatpaste, given she's firing a cannon.
"Slippery" "Slips" "Slime" Darren
Slips is a mook, hands or fall guy or a body, I'm not terribly worried about his impacts. A stubber, revolver, vest, a few impromptu bulletproof plates, good to go.
Again, competent, but not of the same calibre (ahah) as Skyline.
"The Johnson" (I really need to fine the brother's sheet)
The brothers (NOT clones) come from a duelling culture, so a preference for pistols and accuracy.
Matched laspistols, carapace chestplate, pouches galore, so options for hammerspace gear storage that might help.
His statline will be functionally identical to hisclone's brother's.
Stats maybe to follow.

Painting and Modelling / Re: House Nepotem's Discurrere...
Last post by TheNephew - June 22, 2023, 11:55:43 AMProgress has been made - photos soon, hopefully - but unfortunately Brother-Captain Thanos won't be making it to Codex.
He's just a little too obvious.
Calm "Skyline" Belle Nepotem is now toting a Heavy Stubber - she's overwatch support and rather than frontline hack'n'slash, decided after a little posing with various blades that didn't fit the bill.
The hair is to be painted as a helmet/bionic head, as the shaping (sculpting is generous) of the "hair" at the back actually lends itself nicely to being radiator vents.
Colour-matching continues to tie her to Andaini (Pete the Carboloader) - she's also in workman hi-vis orange, as well as having an enormous skull for a face.
I've added Slippery Darren (actually just local scum) and The Other Brother - definitely decidedly determinedly not a clone - wielding paired laspistols to the team, sticking to the Zorn-ish muds, ochres, oranges and blacks.
Aside from that, they all get neon pink detailing to indicate their affiliation to mirror the neon blue of Andaini's crew, these folks have neon pink spots.
