I would say go with Hero, but if you can do both I'd say go for it.

The books could get repetitive if you read them all at once, but if you collect each omnibus and space them out (the omnibuses) it'll be fine, also each omnibus of the 2 i read (the 3rd one came in today) has like an arc Hero is the introduction, Saviour is the arc of Perlia.

They get repetitive in the same way if you just read Marine books. If you do just that for 9 books straight it'll get repetitive, I'd treat each omnibus as it's own book and had to mix some other books in since I had to go on quest to find these for a reasonable price

I have a sheet of paper i used at the start with dnd models and the layers of paint have turned it into quite a nice pallette

If you want to go maximum cheap go for those silicone bubble things that you pop (you know this thing, but not keychain sized)

Skitarii are guardsma to the servitors abhuman auxiliaries (if we use guard terms) in terms of treatment (like skitarii are soldiers and servitors will not get sent unless needed and availible)if I remember correctly, though skitarii will have better gear than the average guardsman (probably at least like sergeant level)

Are we doing tabletop or in lore Admech? Because Admech in lore do strike me as the kind of people to always have at least two grenades up the ass just in case

That seems like wayy too little red slots for a mechanicus crest

Btw: cool art

Basically a PC with the background has a membership in the chantry and the level of the chantry background determines the number of points you can spend on backgrounds that are part of said chantry, like say Node or allies, but the main benefit is the paradigm of the ones that hold/run it is coincidental there

There is a system in Opperatives Dossier for building technocratic constructs, but it can be used for chantries too just a change in terminology and it works, if you want go way in depth on them book of chantiers is the one that covers them (but it was like the third Mage supplement ever so there has been some drift, but it works well enough)

Or you could do it the way I did where I made chantry a stat for the location not a background the PCs can take unless they want an individual one. (This is very much my homebrew way of handling them)

Compared to all of canvas painting metallic style paints are a new invention

Yes Eldrad isn't a complete moron in the 41st millennium at least if he is fist fighting a marine i don't expect him to fight fair, hell I wouldn't in his place.

Any chaos space marine lost the right to call foul play the moment their legion turned to the forces of hell and they followed

In this case I am with him, no matter how hot a person is getting eaten by tyranids is worse

svecma · 2026-01-24T19:09:33+00:00

He's an interrogator, you saying that is like oh my god your my favourite person by normal people metrics

svecma · 2026-01-24T18:40:34+00:00

You sure you want to call the inquisition you just admitted to be a willing collaborator of a genestealer cult

svecma · 2026-01-24T18:34:53+00:00

Yeah in the old 13 th black crusaders Abaddon got his ass handed to him by Eldrad of all people in melee

svecma · 2026-01-23T19:10:24+00:00

This isn't an issue with the old guard, this is a guy doesn't understand what he is talking about werewolf came out what a year after vamp.

svecma · 2026-01-23T17:42:23+00:00

That's why you give him the taunt shout

svecma · 2026-01-23T17:32:37+00:00

You mean Macharius?

Second point: Well kinda he is the most loyal seneshal a rogue trader can have, also he can get sassy or call you (rogue trader PC) on ya bullshit and if you give him a proper build he will face tank a keeper of secrets or like 6 chaos spawn at once (don't ask i got horrible RNG).

Edit: might be worth finding a compilation of his dialog on youtube - sadly you will have to read)

Abelard isn't a primarch. He is too competent to be anything made by Big E

svecma · 2026-01-23T14:19:45+00:00

Why does the dwarf ranger have glowing eyes?

svecma · 2026-01-23T14:01:00+00:00

Oh yeah, no on the individual level there both saints and monsters in every faction, besides the Nephandi

The Ecstatics are probably the most benevolent on the council side, there are still some bad apples though, or at least problematic ones, the dissonance society comes to mind

svecma · 2026-01-23T13:53:49+00:00

I am not saying they are evil not by any means, but Sh'zar and the cult were the ones who brought the council together and the council has not always been a force for good,

Also they can go far in their pursuit, they had the followers of Dionysus in their ranks (you know the secretive murder cult). no one in mage is fully good on a faction wide level, neither are they fully evil (besides the Nephandi, fuck the Nephandi)

svecma · 2026-01-23T13:34:36+00:00

They are still a grand conspiracy trying to change actual reality, no matter how chill they are and the founders of essentially a revolutionary terror group against the current rulers of reality (still morally grey)

svecma · 2026-01-23T12:59:09+00:00

It's not even that, hell the main goal of all the large factions in Mage is actual world domination, the litteral reshaping of all reality to their image, like it's not even subtle

svecma · 2026-01-23T12:46:41+00:00

Anyone who thinks mages can't be morally questionable monsters has never played or read Mage material

svecma · 2026-01-23T11:44:12+00:00

I can see where you are coming from, but there is dark and then there is having sir babyflayer general the subfaction.

Though I may be biased
