Ordo Xeno Radical

[Kaled]

I too like the book, it's a good idea.  I just don't like it on this character - if he can make himself super-strong, can fire lightning from his fingertips, and can boil an enemy's blood in his veins, then he doesn't really need some of the most powerful weapons in the game as well.  Thus my suggestion to split him into two characters...

Out of curiosity Lars - how do you plan to build his pulse rifle?  Are you going to try to make it look like the 40k ones or something a bit different?

[Inquisitor Octavian Lars]

I dropped the digi gun as I desperately want to keep the power knife for a bit of bite in melee. The book's rules have been changed to: Cursed Tome of Biological Sorceries: When reading from the tome (1 action to retrieve from back and 1 action to open, may be held in 1 hand), for all concentrate actions (risky, withpsychic feedback if unsucessful), the user may choose to add an additional 10 to his willpower (in addition to the concentrate bonus) and must use a Biomancy power as his next psychic power to benifit from the bonus. The book also, MUST be used to use any psychic power other than warp strength and must use the book twice in a row to use blood boil.

Also, I will probably leave the changes to the pulse rifle until the revised armoury comes out in it's newest form.
Aside from that, I plan to make the pulse rifle out of plasticard and attach it to the stock of covenant's shotgun and give him a crap laspistol to fill up his other hand.

give him a crap laspistol to fill up his other hand.

Never underestimate the laspistol!! Las weapons are not weak flashlights as in 40k, my most successful character in achieving his aims at the IGT in march was equipped solely with las weapons (pistol and rifle).

Just a point I felt the need to make

If you're just going to model the stock and have the rest in the holster then won't it be far too short?  By my reckoning a pulse carbine would just about fit in that holster but pulse rifles are considerably longer.  You'd have to have the barrel coming out of the bottom end of the holster.

[Inquisitor Octavian Lars]

I meant that the laspistol (using the lasweapon rules provided by marco would be on the low power end of the scale)
My plan, Kaled is to sculpt over the shotgun holster and extend it with plasticard

[Kaled]

Another thought - a pulse rifle must be over five feet long, wouldn't it be extremely difficult for him to get it out of that holster while it's strapped to his back?  And strapping and unstrapping that holster wouldn't be easy given all the gubbins he's carrying...

I'm thinking a pulse carbine might be a better option.  Or dispense with the holster and have it on a sling.

[Inquisitor Octavian Lars]

Yup, a sling on his back would be cool.
