[LFP, PBTA] Warhammer: 40k - Primarch: Powered by The End Times

Primarch: By the End Times is a 40k game in which you play one of 7 Primarchs who lead a space marine legion, using the system Powered by the Apocalypse. We'll be using Roll20 voice chat, NOT Discord. The story : The year is 137.M42. Vulkan has returned, and Lord-Commander Roboute Guilliman has decreed that now is the time to rebuild the Imperium, to bring humanity out of the dark ages. Additionally, there is a rumor amongst the Primarchs that there were two lords of the Alpha Legion, and that only one was slain 11,000 years earlier. Furthermore, the surviving Alpha Legion twin might have been secretly loyal to the Emperor. How will the Fulgrim clone come into play? Who are the two lost Primarchs, and how did they survive until now?  That is up to you. Playable Primarchs:  1) Lion El'Jonson - Legion I - Dark Angels - Loyalty  2) CREATE YOUR OWN! - Legion II - Legion Name - Hope, Love, or Wisdom  [CLAIMED] 3 ) Fulgrim (Clone) - Legion III - Legion Name - Beauty [CLAIMED] 4) CREATE YOUR OWN! - Legion XI - Legion Name - Hope, Love, or Wisdom  [CLAIMED] 5) Roboute Guilliman - Legion XIII - Ultramarines - Leadership 6) Vulkan - Legion 18 - Salamanders - Self-Sacrifice  7) Alpharius or Omegon - Legion XX - Alpha Legion - Deception  

Unfamiliar about Powered by the Apocalypse, but I am intrigued about the game. How does it work ?

since Primarchs are so powerful, this is gonna be less about adventuring and combat, and more about interpersonal relationships between the active Primarchs, and how they handle the Imperium, with diplomacy, strategy, and resource management. But mostly RP between the brothers.  PBTA's basic mechanic is just 2d6 + a stat. If you roll 6 or under, you fail. 7 - 9 is a partial success. 10+ is a full hit. Average humans start with stats of 0, and can go up to +3 or down to -3. Primarchs start at +5 on all stats, so it's almost impossible to outright fail unless penalties are assigned.

so, i havent heard from the players who claimed G-man or the Lion, so those two are now available again.

I am new and I have a stutter.  I only know enough to play as G-Man, but I am Vanilla Paragon and don't think I would do anything Grim Dark with him. Don't know if that would be a problem. 

i think grimdark things mostly happen TO him. it should be fine, as he will be doing mostly admin and strategy and diplomacy. would you be free to get on roll20 voice chat either today before 7pm EST, or wednesday after 6pm EST?

the End Times start wednesday.

since we are doing 1-on-1 games before all the Primarchs meet, we can still get some more Primarchs. Guilliman, Lion, and Alpharius are still available. 

Vulkan is now available

bump. Lion, Alpharius, Guilliman available

This looks fun, can I join?

sure, which one do you wanna play?

Alpharius

or more specifically, Alpha Legion

yep. you'd be playing "Alpharius" (or an Astartes with his name, thats up to you. its my view that most instances of Alpharius in the HH books are not actually him), and the Alpha Legion - being dispersed into scattered warbands - would have to be either brought back together under your reign, or you'd have to choose a loyal warband to be your chapter. 

good, should I PM you my discord?

we wont be using discord, just roll20 voice chat

Gman and Lion still available

bump

G-man is now the only available Primarch
