I just want to be that one fleshy un-augmented human who keeps complaining to the Space Marines about how expensive their antics are.

"Yes, I understand that it is very much preferable for you to deal with this uprising by crashing a cruiser into a city but if you'll just look at the ledgers, you'll see that the quotes we've received put the cost of repairing the damage at...you're not listening, are you?"

"Sir, sir, please? Thank you. Now that you're finally listening I have some concerns over your allocation of resources. Now, you pulled elements of the 12th Squadron's naval assets which is disrupting trade within the sector. I know you think pirates are not that big of a deal but they ... they could literally be at our door right now and you wouldn't care. Are you listening sir?

Sigh

The pirates are chaos worshipers sir.

Oh? Where are they? Let me explain it to you in minutiae."

The only thing I'd be interested in is the Dark Mechanicum, and I think @Mina claimed it.

Could be wrong though, @Dovahsith

The Primordial Intelligences are clearly the Motive Force upon the universe, sparking all life according to the will of the true Omnissiah... which is Scrape Code! Lots and lots of Scrape Code! (I too put in a claim for the superior Mechanicum)

Notification for previous players should they wish to go for old claims before other people take them. Anyone who wants to be a secondary gm would be much appreciated. Making a full complement of claims is advised in case of old claims already been taken by another player.

When I tried to wake the Necrons last game it got shot down on account of they'd stomp everyone and it'd be no fun. You'd probably have to play a single dynasty, heavily crippled.
 
So what's the lore and POD behind this? Who are the Loyal Primarchs and the traitors? Is the Imperial Cult a thing?

I see, thank you

I am not a real big fan of the Warhammer 40k verse but I would like to participate in this if I can, can someone recommend me a faction that someone like me would find relatively easy to play as without having much knowledge on the lore?

My suggestion would be the Blackwatch or Death Guard. They mostly just roam around the Imperium shootin traitors.

It should be noted that the Blackwatch are really blatantly just the Night Lords with slightly different colored armor after Horus faked executing Konrad Curze and killing them all since Konrad had by that point gotten multiple loyalists killed or turned to Chaos out of sheer horror at his actions. This also led to the deep belief among traitor forces that the Imperium is long-since fallen to the evil Curzite Conspiracy, which desires the extinction of Humankind.

Nope. Night Lords are 100% dead. No survivors. Anyone who says otherwise is a traitor.
 
@Dovahsith there was apparently a Tarellian Empire in the Eastern Fringe that got wiped out by Hive Fleet Moloch in M40. Could I take them? I think it'd be cool to have a minor State away from the majority of the fighting that could slowly build up.
 
Imperial Gaurd (Including Cadia -Playing Hard Mode)
Imperial Gaurd (Including Catachan -Playing Murder Mode)
Space Wolves.
 
@Dovahsith , for various personal reasons, im trying to stay off the internet. I'll deliver you a basemap and the basic plan I had, but other then that, I'm off for the rest of the month.

although the self-ban i got was for two days, not a month, so...
 
Said basic background I wrote a year or so ago:
"Father."

"Abomination."

The two gene-bred champions faced each other in the darkened tunnel, reflected images across a broken mirror. One was shorter, younger and fresher faced, missing the scars and injuries of the other. The other was dark, surrounded by the signs of eldritch might, the evidence of centuries of campaigning, and of the greatest battle the universe had seen in years clear on his brow. Each had a coeterie of soldiers, demonesses and trusted champions.

"You know why I'm here, Corax."

"No, no I don't. And I don't care, mockery of a primarch."

"Then die, once and for all."

The primarchs moved forwards in a blur, their companions caught by surprise, but not for long. Bolt shells and bursts of demonic light erupted, swords and claws catching in a deadly duel. Yet all were mere backdrop to the fight between the two lords of Ravens. Post human genetics mixed with arcane magicks weaved a deadly cadence, the chime of sword on sword mixing an obscene music. The younger fought like he planned twelve steps ahead, his sword hitting where the Raven King would be, not where he was. He was younger, stronger, faster, his weapons the ultimate that the technology of the Imperium of Man could craft. He was great, in every sense of the word.

Corvus Corax was better.

As the last of their bodyguards died, he slammed his shoulder into Accipitris' armor, batting aside his riposte. The clone tried to leap to his feet, only to be met by a bolter round into his chest.

"And this is the might of my wayward children? You can see why I left them."

Accipitris spat, and glared angrily at Corvus Corax. "Do it. Kill me, kill them."

He looked thoughtful, for a moment. "I think not. They are my sons, after all, and death is too quick a punishment for their treason, I think. No . . . no. They'll live. I'll even welcome them back, with open arms. Arkhas and the rest of the ringleaders will have – or just will – fall in the fighting, and the rest will eagerly bend the knee. And then, over the years, their names will be eradicated, the honors and victories forgotten, the flags and banners left to rot. The Ashen Claws will not just be defeated. They will be eradicated. They will never even have existed."

"Not," the younger Corax exclaimed, "while I draw breath."

"A good try. But a futile one. No, you will remain here. To learn the error of your ways."

With that, Corvus drove Accipitris onto the debris, metal spars spearing through his chest. He twisted and fused iron beams into a makeshift cage, and silently, wordlessly, left.

And so it was, for years, decades, maybe even centuries or millennia. In the warrens of tunnels beneath Deliverance, Accipitris was imprisoned, as the Raven Guard fought and trained and worked above him. Oh, Corvus did come, every so often, to talk and declaim, but over time that stopped as well.

Till one day, Deliverance shook. He never learned who it was – Iron Warriors or Sons of Horus, on another Crusade, Lorgar or Russ and their intrigues, but someone fired upon Deliverance, shaking the fortress to its foundations. Shaking it enough to dislodge the captive Primarch from his prison. He hid, and stole, and killed, till finally he found a hanger, and a Stormhawk. From the Stormhawk, he found a picket ship, barely large enough to have a Gellar Field and a warp drive. And he ran.

He spent a decade on Nortrax XI, fighting with the Nuthombian Republic as they failed to throw the Blood Angels of the world.

He spent almost a century in the prison planet of Terminax, till the Megarachnids overran the Knights Ludexis.

On Almaria, he learned Colchisian Hymns in the Endless Cloisters.

Off the blackport of Shadow Maw, a five eyed woman taught him poker.

He swung with Jokaero on Pythos.

For a year and a day, he was a sacristan for House Ios.

He served with the Vespids, as the Tau'va expanded.

Now, branded and collared, he serves in the arenas of Commoragh, dealing death for the entertainment of the Dark Eldar.
