I'm finally playing a Black Crusade Game

SO yesterday we finally started a Black Crusade game from our forever DM! Whom hates Black Crusade... but he was feeling 40k.

So the game is Me, my husband, and our other mutual friend who in the game is named Mec. Mec isn't a fan of 40k rpgs we (me, my husband, and our friend) all got introduced to warhammer via Warhammer Fantasy 2e (so we're all biased)

But this is the game i was going to be a space marine but no this isnt the Dog Centaur night lord this is Khornite Blood Angel! Angelos! errr Angela.

See Mec wanted a few concessions since we're going to be dealing with a lot of space marines that why can't there be female space marines so I was given the option to swap Angelos to Angela which I did (Hubby has filled my DMs with Mommy Angela) (also cuz he is a DM who will genderlock stuff but he will also allow you to do very interesting stuff with gender like allowing my one Fantasy character to be genderfluid but it also made sense due to how Fantasy Norsca works and because of how actual viking society worked) [reeling in the tangent!]

SO I'm a Khornite Berserker [Tome of Blood Starting Class] Fallen Blood Angel named Angela

I made a great first impression in the chaos city we landed in and thus scaring away the "welcoming committee" by watching one man get shot and then going over to the dying man and ripping out his throat and drinking his blood.

I got bullied by an Ancient Night Lord (which I failed the test to id him as being either a Night Lord or Alpha Legion ((Which to be fair is a safe guess))) who basically outed me as a Blood Angel and told everyone to be aware of me (aka I have the Betrayer Talent) did the whole "You keep my father's name out of your dirty mouth" but otherwise was hissy at him I'm around 200 years old I am a baby to that man I wasn't going to fight an established Night Lord.

But after getting bullied everyone in the Eye of Terror(?) got a vision that on this planet was the keys to the next crusade which will happen in the next century. So everything exploded into violence!

So at the moment we are gathering troops right now we've got some gangers and mutants but I am the Warband's only Space Marine which we will have to fix as well as getting us a ship too

We're going to play again tonight because we had a lot of fun and our DM wants to get us off planet.

ALSO

We've been playing Warhammer Fantasy 4e which has this cool Advantage mechanic which for normal Cubical 7 games if you do a successful parry no matter the degrees of success you just avoid it completely... this leads to Black Crusade and Dark Heresy and I think also Rogue Trader combat to fucking DRAG ON. We introduced the advantage system which means that if you attack me with only 1 degree of success but I parry with 1 or more degrees higher THEN I avoid the attack. But if your attack has more degrees of success than my parry then in fantasy I'm allowed to reduce the damage. But we're just using advantage to speed up the combat and it worked.

Anyway I'll give you an update on the Harbingers of the Apocalypse on our quest to be amazing.

As long as there are no Iron Warriors thrown my way I should be fine

So we had our second game yesterday night (not normal for us) and its offically now the longest Black Crusade game I have been in!

So we're gathering up more mooks! I found 2 vehicles! THIS IS IMPORTANT because my Astartes is the only other person (only PC the only other is an NPC that follows Mec around) who can operate surface vehicles. One was a truck and the other a van.

So we're in the middle of basically taking over a gang whose leader has died and so we have to go get people right. SO before the announcement right there was something that was driving around that we are going to call The Vengatank. It was a modified Leman Russ tank BLASTING We like to party obnoxiously so that tank was crashed into the main base of this gang we're taking over. So we realize that while the canon doesn't work it's still a leman russ battle tank with some heavy bolters on it. So we're like "hey Venus" the gang Lt. "Do you know a chopshop guy" and she does which we have to go save because they're under siege.

So during that day I had successfully managed to convince the unaligned and Tzeentchian in the group that we should save the Khornites vs the Slanneshites that we came across killing each other. After this we found the Van and the Truck... so we were thinking of how can we assult the hideout to get our guys out.

I couldn't stop laughing because I suggested "Khornite momvan" we pile all 11 Khornites into the van with me driving and just be a big ass distraction. My husband playing the Tzeentchian was all on board for this because he was like "well they'll die usefully"

They did not see it coming I rolled a 7 (out of 100 the smaller the number the better) and had about 5 degrees of success and boy this girl just wanted to have fun! They didn't see it coming.

So me with my Khornites are causing a distraction while Kiris (husbands character) and Mec were driving around in the (what we later learned was) killbox. (Yes my Khornites survived with a Pity the Weak fueled Command) Till Space Marines showed up..

they were Rubrics

See the warlord whose turf we were now up against was a Thousand Sons sorcerer

He was amused by our antics and caught surprised by our tactics and was willing to let us live if we gave him one thing

bastard wants the Vengatank

We did find the mechanic to fix it but our party tank was gonna be his. The music could not be turned off btw they hotwired it to always play when the tank was on. So why the fuck he wants the Vengatank we don't know are we gonna question the Sorcerer? No.

I might be a Khornite Berserker but I'm not stupid. Angela might be enthralled to her blood lust but she's not blinded by the rage (since I am a Blood Angel Frenzying is going to be dangerous for me)

But we unforntunatly we crit passed (which we were warned being a smaller warband was bad for atm) because we got someone who is competent meaning that they could betray us etc

Slaanshi flesh shaper but yeah she joined us much to Angela's pouting

Oh so some of the things I got at character creation were Legacy Chain Axes named Blood Drinker and Rage Taker

And something about my armor, basically my next mutation is preselected... GUESS WHO IS GETTING WINGS

Though I will say I missed out on being a Centaur because just the idea of me wearing armor that's too big and CLEARLY made for someone with another set of legs just dragging behind me derailed the first game's character creation for a bit because we all were just laughing at the thought of that.

But yeah rip Vengatank idk why a Thousand Son Sorcerer wants you
