I saw that Hand of Fate is currently in stock for Alliance distributors, so it should be to stores in the western USA within the week. This makes me happy. That is all.

There are no female Space Marines. Don't believe me?

So enough with the Female Marine threads…

Yes, please hand it over already. 

And then announce more supplements.

Or where you just born with a heart full of neutrality?

What did this supplement contain?

Adeptus mechanicus contains lunatics with high restrictions, fanatics who follow the machine god… I am the same, except no restrictions.

I don't have it yet - my FLGS will have it late this week/early next week. For the contents, just look at the product page. It's all about Tzeentch and things leaning that way.

Had mine for a week, what you wanna know?

If in doubt, shoot it

What sort of exciting stuff can I expect to see for my Space Marine Sorcerer who is dedicated to Tzeentch?

New Gift of the Gods? New Psyker disciplines? Daemon Weapons? Whats up?

 Found a place in Oz that said it was in stock. Ordered it express post, so hopefully it'll arrive tomorrow. Yes FFG will send me a contributor's copy anyway, but I'm impatient and want the book right away! 

This was my first normal book assignment after the big Only War project. Great team of people writing this one. Had a blast working with them. You guys should enjoy it, and there's plenty of fun to be had with the stuff in the armoury!!!

No new gifts. Biomancy, Pyromancy, and specific aligned powers. 2 Tzeentch specific Daemon weapons, with availibility listed :-(. The 4 career's are advanced career's and start at a higher exp level, so they're on par with character who have earned exp and can easily be included in current games. They are, Thousand Sons Sorcerer, Alpha Legion CSM, Q'Sal Magister and Idolitrex Magos. The last one is a tech-priest with they psyker trait.

There's lots and lots of stuff on Tzeentch of course. A very nice book all around, and hopefully it'll be representative of the books for the other chaos gods.

Looted Void Kraken? Sound like fun!

Yeah, I'll probably buy it as soon as the pdf is available =)

Gasping for air. Oh my goodness.

 

Those sound like works of art. Can I weasel any details out of you?

I've converted Dark Heresy to the Only War system. Please take a look!

Can you post a quick list of what's in the armoury (I know the Hollow Blades are there, but what else?).

Q'Sal Crystal Caster

Q'Sal Soul Cannon

Bedlam Staff (D)

Castir Lightning Khopesh

Polix Heavy Khopesh

Pandemonum Stave (D)

Warp Staff

 

All of the staves are Tzeentch flavored to the fullest. There's also Special ammo, a new suit of armour, 2 new force fields, one of which works off of PR which is really, really nice thematically. There's a bunch of neat Tzeentch items as well.

All of the Advanced Characters start up on EXP. The two CSMs are at +3600xp and the two Humans are +4600xp according to the side bar.

You've already seen the preview of the 1k Sons Sorc, so the Alpha Legionnaire is VERY able to infiltrate and past himself off. He begins unaligned.

The Q'Sal Magister is a power players on Q'Sal, which has a good bit of background and an adventure in the book. He's able to pass between the various forges and factions in service to his own goal. Powerful psyker, starts at PR4 and Psychic Phenom rolls do not affect him, unless it's Perils. He can also chose who gets affected by a Phenom by spending an Infamy Point.

The Idolitrex Magos is very interesting. It's what I would chose to play. It's a Magos with Sorcery, they start at PR1 and have learned it through experimentation, but as such they're limited to their Corruption Bonus for PR instead of CB+WB.

There is a whole new slew of Psychic powers. Biomancy is awesome, pyromancy is less so, but is still very cool. There are more rituals and more aligned and exaulted powers as well, but none really stood out on my read through.

I haven't read the adventure, but it's based on Q'Sal and has an investigation portion, so it fits in with the book really well.

 

Anything else?

Looted Void Kraken? Sound like fun!

I'm glad you like the Shimmering Robes. 

What about the minions? What's the artwork for the Crown of Prospero look like (assuming it's there)?

Can you get into more detail with the "prestige archetypes"?

Adeptus mechanicus contains lunatics with high restrictions, fanatics who follow the machine god… I am the same, except no restrictions.

Can the infiltration tricks of the Alpha Legion CSM be taken by other characters (like a Sorcerer, if one wants to make an AL Sorcerer) or are they hardwired into the archetype's special ability? Can you spare any more info on the ALCSM?
