"Bastion" (Sebastian Gustavus van Dorn) You can see why he's called the "Bastion" - he's utterly massive, probably the largest Space Marine you've ever seen, wrapped in ancient, gore-stained armor that groans as it struggles to contain his bulk. He looks like he could breach a fortress with his head - with his helmet off, he looks like he has. He's young by the standards of the Deathwatch. Driven. More than just a hunger for glory, he assaults every enemy like he's avenging a personal slight, grudgingly, like it's a sliver of some larger insult. He's only grown more intense since induction into the Deathwatch. His craggy face relaxes from its perpetual scowl as he salutes you. It's a horrifying expression, but he does appear to be genuinely pleased to meet you. "I am a master of the pain glove, but it's nothing compared to the training of the Deathwatch. I look forward to serving with you." pre:Mastercrafted Force Sword 70/75 1d10+22R P8 *Swift Attack *+10 WS +2 Damage vs Xenos or Heretics *+10 WS vs TRAITORS! *Opposed WP +1d10/DoS Ignores Armor&Toughness *+10 Feint *-30 WS to enemy when in Defensive Stance Duty's End, Imperial Fist's Relic Storm Shield +15 Parry Guarded Attack Half Action Smite Modified like Ranged attack Reg *115 *60m 6d10E P6 Blast(6) *Phenomena on Doubles Lite *100 *30m 3d10E P3 Blast(3) Max *125 *90m 9d10E P9 Blast(9) *Phenomena *Fatigue on Doubles Wave of Penance Dodged as AoE attack Reg *115 *60m 6d10X *Phenomena on Doubles Lite *100 *30m 3d10X Max *130 *90m 9d10X *Phenomena *Fatigue on Doubles Psy Rating VI Fear 1 Hates Traitor Legions Hunts Aliens Scourges Heretics Spend Reaction to Interfere with Enemy Psyker within 80 meters Opposed Willpower Move Half/Full/Charge pre:Name: Bastion Rank: 5 (30000/35000) Hero Chapter: Imperial Fists Specialty: Librarians Past: Brothers No More Demeanor: Sons of Dorn, Hot-Blooded Trapping: Icon of the Iron Cage Solo Ability: Siege Master Squad Attack: Tactical Bolter Drill, Unto the Breach Squad Defense: Hold at All Costs, Exemplar of Stoicism WS**-- (06) 1x60 30+20+05S+05I BS---- (03) 1x35 30+00+05A St---- (12) 2x70 30+20(+20A) To**-- (12) 2x60 30+20+05S+05I Ag---- (03) 1x30 30+00 In*--- (04) 1x45 30+10+05S Pe*--- (04) 1x45 30+10+05S Wp**** (08) 1x80 30+20+10C+05S+05I+05T+E Fe---- (05) 1x50 30+00+20A WP 21/21 FP 3/3 IP 4 CP 2 Move Half/Full/Charge/Run 3/6/9/18 Skills 70 Awareness 40PE+20Auspex+10Familiar+05Armor+ & Reroll 70 Climb Concealment 30 Dodge 30 Drive (Ground Vehicles, Personal) 70 Intimidate 95 Invocation Navigation (Surface) 65 Psyniscience II Silent Move 60 Tactics (Assault) II 60 Tracking Cipers (Imperial Fists Runes) Literacy Speak Language (High Gothic, Low Gothic) 45 Common Lore(Adeptus Astartes, Deathwatch, Imperium, War) 45 Scholastic Lore (Codex Astartes) 45 Forbidden Lore (Pyskers, Xenos) 65 Forbidden Lore (Traitor Legions) II Talents Ambidextrous Bulging Biceps Deathwatch Training Hardy Hatred (Traitor Legions) Hunter of Aliens Iron Jaw Killing Strike Nerves of Steel Quick Draw Scourge of Heretics Sprint Strong Minded Swift Attack True Grit Unarmed Master Heightened Senses (Hearing, Sight) Resistance (Psychic Powers) Weapon Training (Astartes) Traits Unnatural Strength 2 Unnatural Toughness 2 Psy Rating VI Augury Possibility Shield Reading Short-Range Telepathy Long-Range Telepathy Smite Wave of Penance Gear pre:Familiar (Servo Skull) WS BS ST TO AG IN PE WP FE 15 15 10 20 30 15 35 20 -- Wounds 4 +10 Awareness +10 Concealment +00 Dodge +10 Silent Move +20 [SKILL] Fearless Dark Sight Flier (6) Machine (2) Size (Puny) Vox & Cogitator Quill, Ink, & Expanded Memory Storage To Librarian +1 Initiative +10 Focus Power +10 Awareness +10 Psyniscience pre:190/200 060 Duty's End, Imperial Fist Relic Storm Shield 050 Adamantine Mantle 050 Force Sword (Mastercrafted) 015 Psychic Hood 015 Jump Pack Power Armor History: 3#1d5 4 2 5 3#1d10 4 1 10 Power Armor History: Mark VII Elements: 1d10 6 Mark VII Helmet, overridden by Helm of Mordicus.

Spending 200 XP to get a Simple Willpower advance. Saving the rest for next time. Bastion is self-flagellating to atone for messing up the Smite on the Dark Eldar leader.

Going to volunteer to be Leader next game, and since we know we'll be fighting Tau, we should go with the Oath of Knowledge and its sweet, sweet +10 BS&WS vs a Xeno species. Also, in the core book, all the servitors require Distinguished Renown.

Heads up, next session I will be in Dover, UK. Attendance hinges on being able to find some wifi and a place to game. I'm probably not going to be able to see the maps, either. If I can't make it, assume Bastion lost the key to his Pain Glove and is waiting for the Techmarines to forge a new one.

Also, why are you carrying, uh, a chainaxe and three chainswords? Are you going to juggle them? Maybe take a bunch of grenades to go with the jump packs, so you can fly over Tau and poop grenades on their heads like giant pigeons?

Congrats on the GRE! I'll Smite some Xenos for you! Long-Range Telepathy is too tempting to pass up, so Bastion has figured out how to communicate while screaming at the top of his lungs.

I think most of the Relics require you to be at least Distinguished or Famed. I don't have much to buy - if noone else needs my points, I'll take this moment to pick up some cybernetics. I'm thinking about picking up an Exceptional Auger Array and an Exceptional MIU, maybe an Exceptional Bionic Heart so that I can Sprint. Any of the Imperial Assets look good? Not sending any dudes into the TOP SECRET INQUISITION COMPLEX to steal our glory, but might want to set aside some Requisition for Close Air Support (20 points per flight of 1d5+1 Thunderbolts) to chase off those pesky Fighta-Bombas. So far, 22.5 Exceptional Augur Array 22.5 Exceptional MIU 22.5 Exceptional Bionic Heart 67.5/100 It's out of character, but I'm going to have to skip the Pain Glove for this mission. I guess Bastion will just have to content himself with headbutting the training servitors on the way over.

It's the Motion Tracker that works for rapid fire. Camo-Cloaks and Jump Packs are always handy. Do we want to request some SWEET COMBAT BIKES so Brother Blender can be an outrider for us?

I guess I'm just going to grab a Charm, and then save the rest for calling in support during the mission. I think the most important question is "Who gets to use their magboots to surf into battle atop the Razorback?"

Okay, I took Divination, to help track down the Warsmith, I took Hatred (Traitor Legions) and Forbidden Lore (Traitor Legions)+20 for ridiculously cheap from the Imperial Fists advances, and then a little boost to Willpower and Weapon Skill. I have added the Warsmith to the Book of Grudges.

Got to go to the library, the Blood Angels nerd got his arm blown off by a booby trapped book, and we beat the crap out of a horde of heretics. Ate some brains, tracked down their hideout and found out that they don't know where the grave is hidden, so their plan B is to kick off a war and see if the archaeotech strangeness goes off. A bunch of sentinels showed up, and I got to go all Revengeance of one of them!

Okay, that is sweet. "We have no need to spit acid, when we can just drink gas and spit fire!" Have to remember to check using acid spit off the list of weirdass Space Marine powers. Also laughing at the flower name. I had though you said Cinnabar. Also I should probably take the 85, i ate the most food. Besides, my huge toughness and my freakish biology (another power, check) means I have a decent chance of tanking it.

Well, we haven't had the opportunity to use a boarding torpedo lately. Foil his plans on the planet, pursue him to his ship and blow him up. Blow up the ship, too. Maybe surf back down to the planet aboard the wreckage. Hope everyone remembers to wear their helmet or use their third lung. Bastion's interrogation style, where he just negs the subject into bragging about their secrets, is called "pride and ego down" by the US Army. I don't think the Army has a term for cracking open someone's skull and sucking out the delicious knowledge inside. Since I don't have the Interrogate skill, I think this just Bastion being Bastion.

Welp, spent 1000XP and got a Familiar Servo Skull. A relic of some grumpy librarian. "I'm too old for this poo poo." Boosted Willpower and Weapons Skill, and got Probability Shield, to boost the Kill Team. Requisitioned a Psychic Hood and my usual Force Sword - 10 points left if anyone needs it, or alternatively if anyone has spare points left over I upgrading to a Master Force Sword costs 25 points. I imagine the Imperial Fists version of the Psychic Hood looks like a little castle, maybe like a Mural Crown. "No such thing as too fortified."

Ah, but which xenos? Or what if there's more than one kind? OR IT'S FULL OF TRAITORS! RARGH! I certainly won't say no to a sweet sword, but if anyone else needs the points more I'm happy to donate mine. 25 loose points.

I'm cool with that, though you have the Bolter special ability, instead of the one that lets you use Chapter Squad modes on everyone. Go with Oath to the Emperor, I guess. Storm Shields are always fun. Especially if you combine them with that Storm Bolter of yours, SWAT style. They're 35 requisition. A Motion Predictor makes you even more likely to hit. 20 requisition. Cybernetics are nice because they're permanent.

# ¿ Jul 16, 2017 12:04 |

Yeah, I don't know if there is an official policy for this kind of thing - it's probably a rare enough event that there's not a ton of precedent It's a good conundrum - if it can be used, it's valuable enough to hurl wave after wave of Marines to retrieve. If. And by the same token we absolutely cannot let the Traitor Legions reclaim it. I suggest we tape all our spare grenades to the caskets so we can make sure they're destroyed rather than captured. The caskets aren't really mobile, are they? I guess we camp out until the Inquisitor can send in a retrieval team or we're able to start the ship up and drive it back to the Watch Fortress. Time to fortify this area against the worst that the Traitors and the Hulk itself can hurl at us.

JcDent posted:It's like you're an Imperial Fist or something. As bad as splitting the party is, we need to let the Inquisitor know what we've found. One group forts up in the medbay, the other dashes off to inform the Inquisitor? Bastion and Kalderich are slow, they should probably dig in. Alternatively, Bastion hasn't done any ridiculous weightlifting lately, maybe we can just carry them off.
