Rogue Trader (40k) [Wait Listing] [OOC]

[Slorch]

The ship wouldn't happen to have 300 naval shotguns would it?

[Hetland 2]

Step One:
One person can/should drive the ship, even if this is just a crew use.

Step twooos:
Active Augury: Scan for hidden enemies
Focused: Augury: Figure out what's on an enemy ship
Aid the Machine Spirit: Increase Manoeuvrability or Detection
Disinformation: Increase crew morale (we're winning, honest!)
Emerpgency Repairs: Hope you won't have to use this one.
Flank Speed: Make the ship go fasta
Fire Weapons: Fire one of the guns, also an important one.
Hail the Enemy: Hi badguys.
Hit and Run: Raid an enemy ship within 5 VU
Hold Fast!: Reduce damage to morale from last turn
Jam Communications: Keep enemy from using Vox
Lock on Target: Increase effective ballistics skill
Prepare to Repel Borders!: Get bonus against enemy raiders
Put Your Backs Into It!: Increase Ballistics Skill and Emergency Repairs
Triage: Reduce populations loss.

So mine would be Hit and Run, Hold Fast!, or Prepare to Repel Borders!.

@Slorch: For right now, you should have try doing "Put your backs into it" to boost our ballistic skill for shooting.

So for clarification Annerette will be aiding the machine spirit(Manuever)

Her crew will be doing the following:
Aid the machine spirit (Manuever)
Lock on Target: Plasma
Lock on Target: Plasma

Probably would be Hit and Run for Lothy.

Wouldn't that be more of a commissar job?

[Bredtonia]

To clarify, by "Your Crew" I mean "The party's Crew". So the total number of actions is equal to the number of PCs + 3
Hit and runs are limited to 5 VU, so that's not really an option this first turn. Even if you were to move at flank speed you wouldn't get in range by the end of the turn.

Also, multiple attempts of the same action are not cumulative, the best roll will be taken. The other option, naturally is for you to actually do the shooting, Slorch.

Ohhhhhh! I will simply aid the machine spirit. I would like to have one of our crew actions be lock on target.

Probably go for Focused: Augury, see if we can find anything special to be primary target.

[Carcharhinidae primari]

focussed augury should automatically reveal any vessels on silent running within... some distance.

[Raktio]

So I'm still going to go ahead and hail the other ship and I'm going to do a deceive, however the question is what am I going to attempt to deceive them into believing which could help us and scare them (so far I have pretending that we have a lot of ANGRY MARINES!).


ALWAYS ANGRY

As long as you don't convince them that everyone on the ship is actually a weak baby who can't hold a gun, I'm fine with this. Leave out the angry marine part, as they aren't real.

I know they aren't real, however convincing them that we have space marines is the best one so far, that or something like the Inquisition or the Imperial Navy.

I could also try convincing them that attacking us wouldn't be worth it or we have major backup thatcomes if we call for them.

I wouldn't advise telling them we have major back up that comes if we call them because 1. That sounds like a lie, and 2. That's just going to make them try and kill us faster.

[Raktio]

I wonder how well telling them that this is a incredibly holy ship that was Blessed by one of the people really high in the Ecclesiasty and that in attqcking minutes hat they would damn themselves to be consumed by the Warp...

[Morrdh]

What if they're Pirates and/or Chaos?

Almost assuredly pirates, although finding out exactly who they are would be a good idea if it's chaos than I'll be letting the other officers know and telling someone to tell everybody to pray to the emperor as hard as posible.

How about we save talking to the enemy ships until we've crippled their fleet and can kill them at our leasure.

not to mention that we have the option of opening fire on them without them realizing we've discovered them.

[Raktio]

Alright than what else to do...

The only thing he could really do would be Disinformation

[Hetland 2]

I'll post my opinion on what actions should take. But think we should go into evasive maneuvers.

[Raktio]

So it seems the two opinions are surprise attack, and evasive maneuvers and you can't do both at the same time.

[Slorch]

To clarify, by "Your Crew" I mean "The party's Crew". So the total number of actions is equal to the number of PCs + 3

How would I do that?

[Hetland 2]

So it seems the two opinions are surprise attack, and evasive maneuvers and you can't do both at the same time.

We can do both of them Its just evasive manuevers forces your shooting to take a -penalty equal to the penalty it forces onto the opponents.

My reccomendations for the parties actions:

Lothy: Scanners. Your exellent perception should help subvert the fact that no one has scrutiny. Active Augury.
Keeler: Put your back into it. You have good fellowship so you should be able to pull it off and give our ship a boost to ballistic skill.
Melor: I can't think of much. Sorry. You could try Jam communications.
Ghodwinne: Aid the machine spirit(Boosting detection)

Crew actions:
Fire weapons
Lock on to target
Ready action.

Ahhh... I thought I put you in.

Viktor: Sit in a corner and continue to not post.
Navigator: See above.
Joe: You fire the weapons
Vladko: See Viktor
Cassius: Jam communications
Felix: ... Honestly, no clue. Do something cool.

or an astropath only action, I have some... other uses then the ones everyone can do. I think I'll go with the ties that bind, even though it's tricky. (bred, page 200 into the storm book. +/- 0 willpower focus power test at fettered level and need 2 degrees of success. haven't included the bonus for my psy rating yet)
