Under the Walls of Night [OOC|Open]

[The Burning Sun]

We're starting at the 500-600 point level. tiny, I know, but the majority of your forces come in as reinforcements.

Unless it's different for Orks, since they only come in on day 2?

I was just under the impression that the point restrictions do not count when you do not got initial forces, nor specific point allocation/unit numbers. Anyway I can change it if needed.

That's about 1700 total, yeah?

Normal armies are 1850, but we should wait on G-Tech to let us know exactly how much we should start with.

Sounds good, was about to include a Dakka jet too, but again up to OP

[The Burning Sun]

How would you justify equipment/forces to match other factions?

well there basically non-chaos cultists to an extent, so im assuming imperium weapons and whatever else they can get their hands on.

they will be criminals so black market weapons would be nice to. So basically imperium weaponry(some illegally modified) as for reinforcements, allied gangs/pirates?

So basically, you'd be stuck using guardsmen or cultists with flashlights and MAYBE a plasma gun or melta? No way you'd be able to get your hands on either vehicles or bolters, really. Same goes for power weapons and chainswords. You could use grenades, I guess, but that's still a very weak force.

if cultists can get ahold of vehicles and bolters a large hive gang should be able to as well.

[Warpspace]

Wait herp derp, I completely forgot.

I'm going to go make a psyker list for the Chaos Cultists. No need to worry about reinforcements when you can just summon the Flying Circus.

If you can hit an armoury and have some Hereteks on hand, then it's entirely feasible for hive gangs to obtain vehicles.

Orkz will be landing on turn two wherever they wish- they'll be getting 700 points, as I stated earlier. If you have larger lists that will make reinforcements easier, but you won't have everything to start with.

Sorceror lists with summoning can be remarkably fun.

[Prusslandia]

Here is what I'm thinking for my Dark Mechanicum outfit. I'd appreciate feedback and help.

Archmagos Prime, with Conversion beamer, Mandati legio. 120 cost.

Hypaspist Maniple- Tribune equipped with Power Sword, two Hypaspiss are equipped with Meltas. 115 cost.

Defiler- Lascannon and Heavy Bolter. 215 cost.

[North Calaveras]

G-tech if you don't think hive gangs should be allowed I can be something else, I was just trying to spice things up with a differen't faction.

Yeah, but flying circus. Nurgle flying circus.

Well, I don't mind the concept- I just can't see a way they'll be able to compete in a realistic fashion. Or why they would be large enough to seize control of an entire region- the only reason Chaos can do it is because they're Chaos.

You could do a Genestealer Cult.

Someone go get the Grey Knights.

Or I could just grab some Jokaero and a Psycocculum/Null Rod. Not sure what would make him rage harder.

I figured they could have allied gangs for reinforcements(pirates for space assets, more gang recruits as time goes on)

im going for a gang warlord leading a vicious gang in a bid for total curruption and domination and turning the world into a criminal hub.

as for competing, instead of "daemonic powers" i would say they use custom modified weapons and black market alien weapons(for instance some of them could have some tau pulse rifles etc etc) from their own hereteks.

[Bone Fort]

Also, do unused points roll over?

[Lunas Legion]

So, it seems I'm gonna have to go back to my original band of manspam Traitors as I don't have the current IG codex.

I'd like to see someone successfully smuggle xenotech onto a Hive World under the nose of the Inquisition. I'd also like to see someone successfully modify tech thousands of years old without knowing how it works.

well apparently chaos cultists and genestealer cults made it on world and they can be spotted alot easier than a criminal...

[G-Tech Corporation]

Quite. If you want large units or special ones, as a rule of thumb you'll have to save for them.

This world isn't particularly important, and tech can get in and out pretty easily without a massive inquisition presence, especially if hereteks are involved.

And hereteks can mod the tech.

Well, genestealers grow from spores or something, and chaos cultists are corrupted anew.

You could try, but it would be much easier to just use an existing codex.

both of which can be detected, chaos has mutations and daemonic presence, genestealer literally change after generations into abominations of their former selves.

criminals are just humans with ulterior motives, which is damn near stealth-mode when compared to the frothing hordes of chaos and the infested humans of the tyranids

If G-tech dosn't want to allow It i'll play as another faction.

Mordian is pretty important.

[The Burning Sun]

Army Name: Inquisitorial Stormtroopers, I guess.
Army Bio: Feared and respected in equal measure, the Inquisition is responsible for maintaining the integrity of Mankind, by any means necessary. Without them, the forces of humanity would stand little chance against the corrupting influence of the enemy within. It is a thankless task, yet one Inquisitor Anastasia von Liese toils at with relish.

When news came of a combined Chaos and Greenskin incursion, she was sent to investigate the source of the treason in Imperial ranks. Bringing with her a sizable force of Inquisitorial Stormtroopers, she is currently en route to the planet, ready to cleanse it of its heretical filth or baptize it in the Emperor's name.
Experience with WH40k: Mostly fluff and vidyagames, but I get the rules well enough.
Army List:

Hereticus Inquisitor: ML1 Psyker with Divination, Force Sword, Bolt Pistol(55 pts)
-Crusader(15 pts)
-Ministorum Priest(25 pts)
-2 Arco-Flagellants(30pts)
-Psyker, rolls on Pyromancy(10 pts)
-Valkyrie with Multiple Rocket Pods(130 pts)

Allied Detachment: Tempestus Scions

Tempestus Scions Squad: 2 Volley Guns, Vox-Caster, Bolt Pistol on Sgt.(95 pts)

Tempestus Scions Squad: 2 Volley Guns, Vox-Caster, Bolt Pistol on Sgt.(95 pts)

Command Squad: Vox-Caster, Bolt Pistol on Sgt.(90 pts)
- Tuarox Prime with an Autocannon(80 pts)
600 pts Total

Not the best bio, but I spent most of the time coming up with an actual competitive-ish list. It can kill cultists all day, that's for sure.

I would prefer if you used something with a Codex, I guess. I'm certain there are plenty of criminal factions on Mordian, but I can't think of a fluff reason why they would be powerful enough to be a faction in their own right. You can handwave warlordism and whatnot, but even the IG have weapons far and away better than your average Hive ganger- their vests, for all that they're made of cardboard on tabletop, stand a legitimate chance of stopping even deadly water-balloon sized RPG bullets.
