In Service to the Imperium; Episode 7 WH40K-OOC/Waitinglist

[Carcharhinidae primari]

heh. checked lexicanum just now. it's actually listed as a possible replacement there. not sure how a chimera chassis would handle that recoil that far forwards though.

You move the gun further back into the tank; makes it easier to hide with a shorter gun and can deal with the recoil better.

at that point you've basically made the basilisk replacement you mentioned earlier

But it has a lower sillouette and unexposed crew.

[Bone Fort]

Seeing as Thunderers are canonically field refute of laser destroyers armed with Demolisher cannons, I don't see why having Vanquishers instead would be frowned upon.
Edit: the lexicanum even says it's possible to refit them with not only the Demolisher cannon, but the Battle cannon and Vanquisher cannon as well.

4 heavy infantry squads (3 eviscerators, 2 shotguns, 5 hellguns, carapace armour)

Armor and vehicle heavy regiments will have most detail here. Be reasonable on support weapons.

Uniforms: (Image)in combat most of the knives will be left in the squad chimera, and flak and/or carapace will be worn grudgingly, as it hides the scars.
official dress uniform does not have a shirt either, as every scar and weapon is carried with pride. officers go one further, replacing most of the knives in the image with swords accumulated over their campaigns, usually one after each planet conquered.
in colder climates a greatcoat is often incorporated, light flakweave but otherwise unremarkable.

Miscellaneous info: hailing from one of the younger hive worlds of the imperium, bront was one of the last planets settled in the angevin crusade, with the 33th army group given right of settlement on the planet. it was the last army group to be disbanded, and contained many veteran units. this instilled into the new, industrial colony a strong sense of discipline and honour, as each regiment formed the core of a clan. within a 1000 years of settlement the planet was classed a hive world, and the clans were engaging in the usual competition about land and resources as create the backbone of many hive-born regiments.
On Bront, however, these disputes are almost always settled in ritual mass combat, with knives and swords being held above all other weapons, and the traditions of discipline and obedience of the original regiments are still held high.
The penchant for using swords and knives to settle inter-clan rivalries is also the reason for their peculiar dress uniform, as each scar is seen as holding a story of victory or defeat, and often the two are treated as the same honour. Any scars on the back though, are seen as unacceptable, either from the bite of a lash as a criminal or taken when fleeing from an opponent.

because of their aptitude and preference for close combat, most brontians would not consider an armoured regiment to be their choice, but numerous of the brontian armoured regiments have gained high honour, favouring demolishers and short-range weaponry like meltas they are at their best at the heart of the fighting, making daring charges before smashing apart enemy formations and fortifications with the heavy weaponry available. This did not go unnoticed.
After much debate amongst the upper echelons of the brontian PDF it was decided that the next tithe would contain 20 hybrid regiments in an attempt to increase the already formidable performance of the seperated armour and infantry. In this way, it was hoped, the infantry would have the backing of assault and breakthrough tanks who knew exactly what they would do, were matched with in aggression and who would not feel unusual about seeing officers decorated with as many swords as would fit on their belt and backs.
At it's creation the regiment, as is traditional, was drawn with units from as many clans as possible, and as such represented the planet as a whole, instead of any particular faction on it. however the long wars has by now eroded all such differences, and though ocasionally one of them might use an unfamiliar term or dialect the battles have created a shared bond beyond any former differences. The only external element, their commissar, was lost about a year ago, and though the munitorum did send word that a replacement was being sent they have neither heard nor seen of him since.
How long has the regiment been with the Crusade?
The 15th is relatively new to the crusade, though elements of them have been fighting for decades in other battlefields. they were originally scheduled to arrive 3 years ago to reinforce the sagging battle lines before the true extent of the ork host was known, but their transport was blown of course in the warp and arrived 6 months late to the staging area.
this was a fortuitous coincidence, as a scouting party of orks has arrived and was already assaulting the land bases, any regiments were welcome. since then they've had little rest, moving from battlefield to battlefield as the crusade retreated.


-Regimental Commander info-
Name:Kaido Jamesson
Age:39
Gender:male
Rank: Colonel
Background:
He has been with the 15th since it's creation, being transferred over as a gunner for one of the thunderers in use in the regiment. Having joined the PDF young he had few scars from his worlds frequent combat on joining the regiment, and amongst the few veterans who still remember him from that time his old nickname of 'babyskin' is only mentioned as a joke.
During the first battles he quickly became marked for possible promotion, working his way up to commanding coreward platoon's unit of thunderers. As his responsibilities grew, so too did his reputation of leading by the front, and most of his scars stem from this tendency. After a particularly vicious battle against an insurrection on a remote industrial world he became the first non-infantry platoon commander amongst the brontian hybrid regiments when his platoon lost it's entire command element and most of the infantry. He still bares a particular scar of that conflict with pride, to the point of rolling up his sleeves when social protocol demands he wears one as a colonel, a discoloured groove running along his left forearm where a lascannon shot penetrated the front of his vehicle and grazed his arm.
Physical description:
Scarred and decorated, Kaido is around 6 foot tall and almost always stands upright in such a way as to seem a little taller. most striking at first glance are a pair of perfectly straight scars, sloping outwards above his eyes, as these are one of the few scars he bears from his homeworld's ritual combat they appear neat, far more so then the often crooked and irregular scars obtained in over a decade of war.
when in dress uniform he resembles nothing so much as a walking armoury or weapon exibition (blade design across the sector), with nearly two dozen blades along his belt and back, and while most of these are well-made but ordinary imperial designs commissioned after campaigns, two take special precedence. The first is an ork blade, itself a looted chainsword at first glance, which fairly solid regimental rumours claim he took from an ork mekboy who had the dare to challenge him to a duel on top of Kaido's malcador in the midst of a battle (details vary). The second blade is a inactive eldar power sword, which was found embedded in the armour of the malcador during the last deployment before being called to the crusade, again details vary, but the commonly agreed idea holds that it was propelled from it's owners hand into the armour by a demolisher shell going on in the midst of an eldar vehicle too damaged by lighter fire to evade. The blade has the signature elegant curves of it's alien race, but is entirely inactive, either damaged beyond working or it's power cell has run dry if they ever do with eldar.

In reserve or deployed? (Basically if you want to start as sitting around and waiting to be sent to fight, or if you want to start in the thick of it. This is an option because I know some people lose interest in the generally long build ups before we get into actual combat. So if you want to have that build up, maybe enter into some military politics for a bit, choose to start out in reserve. If deployed you'll start out in the thick of it.)[/spoiler]

Do I need to fix the numbers on mine?

Yes. 2,400 troops is a bit much for a drop regiment, as that would also be a considerable amount of Valks tied up just for your regiment alone.

Mmmm ok, so 1,000 guardsmen, and I thought that would be a reasonable amount? If each one carries 12 men, that's half a platoon, so sixteen would be required to move two companies at one, in addition to the drop sentinels plus the extra two for medevac and supplies? Obvi your OP so I'll change that too if you want.

[Segmentia]

1,000 works.

Regiment name: 112th Kokodian Response Troops
Home world: Kokoda.
Type of Regiment: Light Infantry/Fast Response troops.
Commanding Officer: Colonel Ned Allen.
Number of Guardsmen: 1,210
Support (Weapons, vehicles, etc): Due to the fact they have to be fast, most Kokodian Guardsmen are armed with Lascarbines and Frag Grenades. Typically, every platoon has one squad with a flamer equipped guardsmen (this is due to the Kokoda Guardsmen also being adept jungle fighters) and also a Heavy Stubber armed Guardsmen to provide suppression and covering fire. Heavy Weapons Teams are equipped with Voss Pattern Grenade Launchers which are inaccurate but have a faster rate of fire to make up for that shortcoming, along with Heavy Bolters. For anti-tank use in standard infantry squads, at least one guardsmen carries a one-shot missile launcher. These are not very effective against heavy armor, but are good for anti-fortification and group control.

35 Chimera Transports.

12 Hellhound Flame Tanks.

12 Taurox Armored Personnel Carriers armed with Autocannons.

Miscellaneous info: The Kokoda employ a special kind of squad in it's standard company-Rats. Rats are assault troops meant to get in the enemies face. They are armed with Combat Shotguns, Machete's and Laspistols. Rat's suffer the highest causality rate of the Kokoda troops and such are not deployed often.

People who have been deployed with Kokodian troops will tell you that Kokodians love booby traps. If they had an organized retreat, tanks, equipment,guns and even bodies will be booby trapped. This is either the standard grenade or even spikes or rock falls it depends on were they are fighting and how much time they have.

Kokodian's are expert jungle fighters, this is due the fact that Kokoda is a jungle world. This is also the reason Kokodians have an affinity for flamers-the burn hidden enemies and clear the way for tanks and large troop movements. This does not mean the Kokodians are a one-trick pony, as they can adept to almost anything on a short notice
How long has the regiment been with the Crusade? Six years.

-Regimental Commander info-

Name: Ned Allen.
Age: 53
Gender: Male
Rank: Colonel.
Background:Ned Allen grew up with the life of a simple man. His parents were farmers with no ambition but one of his uncles, who went by the name of Ted, was a Guardsmen in the Imperial Guard and often sent letters back home. Allen began to dream about life in the guard, reading his uncles letter with the religious fervor of a Ministorum Priest. Once he turned 18, Ned ran away from home, hoping to tell his family were he gone once he made a name for himself in the Guard. He came into the guard with the wide eye idealism that every commander wanted under him.

That soon faded. At age 22, Ned, then a corporal in the 111th Kokodian Light Infantry, had seen things he would never wish on his worse enemy. From demons to screeching women gutting his comrades with swords Ned had seen death and suffering, even if only for a few feet of dirt. Soon the eerie whispers of chaos began to spread through the 111th, and Ned too felt the lust for power, something to give him a feeling of worth in a galaxy gone to hell.

Then, suddenly, when Chaos began to spread through the 111th like wildfire, Ned saw what he could only consider a message from the God-Emperor. It was his family, waiting for his return. This gave Ned a sudden rebirth and as the virus of Chaos left his body, Ned stopped the 111th from rebelling and causing death and destruction.

The Inquisition found that Ned was pure in his faith, both in heart and mind. At age 30, Ned was transferred to the newly formed 112th and made into a company commander by Colonel Gilmore. With his faith renewed, Ned led his soldiers into battle, putting his life on the line to save them from deaths and Chaos embrace. By age 42, Ned was the Major of the 112th and second in command to Gilmore.

Then, two years ago, in the world of Cortuga, after heavy fighting with traitor forces, Gilmore was killed by a traitor sniper. Now commander of the 112th, Ned's first action was to hunt the sniper the 112th termed 'Kelly' himself-with a squad of honor guard of course. The hunt lasted for 48 hours, and the 112th captured several towns and ammo caches while hunting Kelly. They finally found him holed up in a abandoned church. Building barricades and tunnel into the Church, Ned discovered it to be defiled. Angered more, Ned tracked the Sniper down with only a Laspistol and Machete, and found him defiling a statue to the Emperor with heretical sigils.

He engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the Sniper, and through he killed him with a machete to the skull, the sniper managed to give Ned a limp with the butt of his rifle.

It is rumored Ned still has the head of the sniper, but the 112th respect Ned to much to ask and nor do they care.


Physical description: Stands at 5'11, skin is pale with the skins of a hard life of work and war and reddish hair. Walks with a slight limp that he picked up two years ago but it doesn't interfere much in his work. On his arms he has traditional tattoo's (much like the ones that the Maori wear) which in Kokodian culture are a sign of respect and wisdom.

In reserve or deployed? I have no preference.

Any problems with the bio?

Miscellaneous info: The Kokoda employ a special kind of squad in it's standard company-Rats. Rats are assault troops meant to get in the enemies face. They are armed with Combat Shotguns, Machete's and Laspistols. Rat's suffer the highest causality rate of the Kokoda troops and such are not deployed often.

People who have been deployed with Kokodian troops will tell you that Kokodians love booby traps. If they had an organized retreat, tanks, equipment,guns and even bodies will be booby trapped. This is either the standard grenade or even spikes or rock falls it depends on were they are fighting and how much time they have.

Kokodian's are expert jungle fighters, this is due the fact that Kokoda is a jungle world. This is also the reason Kokodians have an affinity for flamers-the burn hidden enemies and clear the way for tanks and large troop movements. This does not mean the Kokodians are a one-trick pony, as they can adept to almost anything on a short notice
How long has the regiment been with the Crusade? Six years.

-Regimental Commander info-

Name: Ned Allen.
Age: 53
Gender: Male
Rank: Colonel.
Background:Ned Allen grew up with the life of a simple man. His parents were farmers with no ambition but one of his uncles, who went by the name of Ted, was a Guardsmen in the Imperial Guard and often sent letters back home. Allen began to dream about life in the guard, reading his uncles letter with the religious fervor of a Ministorum Priest. Once he turned 18, Ned ran away from home, hoping to tell his family were he gone once he made a name for himself in the Guard. He came into the guard with the wide eye idealism that every commander wanted under him.

That soon faded. At age 22, Ned, then a corporal in the 111th Kokodian Light Infantry, had seen things he would never wish on his worse enemy. From demons to screeching women gutting his comrades with swords Ned had seen death and suffering, even if only for a few feet of dirt. Soon the eerie whispers of chaos began to spread through the 111th, and Ned too felt the lust for power, something to give him a feeling of worth in a galaxy gone to hell.

Then, suddenly, when Chaos began to spread through the 111th like wildfire, Ned saw what he could only consider a message from the God-Emperor. It was his family, waiting for his return. This gave Ned a sudden rebirth and as the virus of Chaos left his body, Ned stopped the 111th from rebelling and causing death and destruction.

The Inquisition found that Ned was pure in his faith, both in heart and mind. At age 30, Ned was transferred to the newly formed 112th and made into a company commander by Colonel Gilmore. With his faith renewed, Ned led his soldiers into battle, putting his life on the line to save them from deaths and Chaos embrace. By age 42, Ned was the Major of the 112th and second in command to Gilmore.

Then, two years ago, in the world of Cortuga, after heavy fighting with traitor forces, Gilmore was killed by a traitor sniper. Now commander of the 112th, Ned's first action was to hunt the sniper the 112th termed 'Kelly' himself-with a squad of honor guard of course. The hunt lasted for 48 hours, and the 112th captured several towns and ammo caches while hunting Kelly. They finally found him holed up in a abandoned church. Building barricades and tunnel into the Church, Ned discovered it to be defiled. Angered more, Ned tracked the Sniper down with only a Laspistol and Machete, and found him defiling a statue to the Emperor with heretical sigils.

He engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the Sniper, and through he killed him with a machete to the skull, the sniper managed to give Ned a limp with the butt of his rifle.

It is rumored Ned still has the head of the sniper, but the 112th respect Ned to much to ask and nor do they care.


Physical description: Stands at 5'11, skin is pale with the skins of a hard life of work and war and reddish hair. Walks with a slight limp that he picked up two years ago but it doesn't interfere much in his work. On his arms he has traditional tattoo's (much like the ones that the Maori wear) which in Kokodian culture are a sign of respect and wisdom.

In reserve or deployed? I have no preference.

Any problems with the bio?

Looks alright, though I must say you need a preference for either reserve or deployment. I'd say deployment, as rather few players have chosen to enter combat directly. All you need now is Seg's attention.

Zeinbrad accepted, just make sure you pick deployed or reserve.

I don't see a stated number of Valks in your app.

I put 22

That is good for now.
