Newgrounds.com — Everything, By Everyone.

I ran my hand through my ruffled hair as I looked out a barricaded window overseeing the general direction of the enemy. I feel dirty, actually I am dirty. Not having the chance to bathe for more then two weeks straight has such an effect. But it doesn’t matter I guess, the others smell at least as bad as me, so I’m not the Atillan between the Mordians. “Some hot water would be nice.” I chuckle as I rub my stubbled chin. “A big piece of meat would also be nice.” Bronski called from his window. “Maybe a fridge filled with ice cold beers and a couch to sit on would be nice!” Marsh yells from the other side of the room. Acknowledgements and laughter erupt from the gathered men. Good men, my men. Most men would be unnerved by not seeing an enemy for such a long period, but these guys are fine with it. When it comes they’ll get it on. But I guess now’s not the day.

It's a shame, i've tried uploading it and the BBS kept rejecting it like the vile and over used slut that it is (sorry Tom and Wade), so now I've turned it into a handy html file on-line.

Read it and tell me what you think of it. I'll ad a cool pic later on.

great story....just one thing...R U DEAD?or not? that is the question...

man it's been quite today.very quite.anyway how r the sprites coming? any progress? finished anymore u can post?

oh, also, what does DorkBoy make the sprites with? does he just use paintbrush? i was wondering.

Greetings,

Having been shut off from the internet when riots are "happening" near the Internet Service Provider seem to have the effect that the internet is gone...

Anyways, DorkBoy creates these sprites with the program called MS Paint and uses Paintshop Pro 7 Deluxe for special effects such as lensflares and fading techniques.

And am I dead? I'm not so sure myself. I really like my alternate self in the 40K universe (He is alike me, but diffirent in many ways, such as he can kick some ass and I can´t, he gets to do cool stuff, but we are both pretty weak and can´t hold our hard-liquor.), so I won't be killing myself of that easily I guess. I'm still thinking of a good way to get back to the land of the living.

I'll try and see if I can upload a teaser in the BBS featuring a special character. The current status of all the sprites in total is around the 7%. Sounds pretty low, but the number of sprites I need for this thing is huge.

Note to self: Try to remember correct file name!

This is the teaser I meant to post...

All tyranids are of one mind for the most part Tyrants and warriors can make their own critical choices but rely heavily on the hive mind so it makes since. :-P

Sly Marbo - The one man army

Sly Marbo - The one man army

yup he's a catachan colonel (i think), he doesn't talk to anyone and is extremely dangerous, like most WH40k characters.

Quoted from the official Codex: Catachans.

Sly Marbo: 135 pts.
WS BS S T W I A Ld Sv+
5 4 3 3 3 4 3 10 5+

Sly Marbo is a one-man army. He operates alone, striking from ambush before disappearing back into the jungle.

Wargear: Ripper pistol, envenomed blade, demolition charge, frag grenades and krak grenades.

SPECIAL RULES:

SNIPER.
All of the special rules that apply to snipers also apply to Sly, except were modified below.

MAY MOVE.
Unlike other snipers, Sly may move after he has been revealed. You may remove him in your movement phase as if he was a normal sniper; write down the coordinates for a square adjacent to the one he disappeared from. He may reappear there using the Ambush rules from the start of the next turn. You cannot reveal Sly in the same turn. Whilst on the table, he may move and make assaults like any other model.

RIPPER PISTOL.
Sly is armed with a ripper pistol which fires a hail of metal shards at the target. It follows the same special rules for wounding as a sniper rifle. The ripper pistol uses deathworld toxins and may re-roll any failed rolls to wound.
Range Str AP Notes
Ripper Pistol 12" X 6 Pistol

ENVENOMED BLADE.
Sly carries a Catachan knife with a monofilament blade coated with deadly toxins. It is treated as a power weapon and the deathworld toxins allow Sly to re-roll any failed rolls to wound in close combat.

ALWAYS OPERATES ALONE.
Sly is treated as an independant character. He may not join another unit.

Sly Marbo started life as a Rambo parody. (Silvester "Sly" Stallone, and if you mix Marbo, you get Rambo.)

Official Codex fluff story.
The Colonel stepped up to Trooper Marbo. Marbo's eyes were empty again, like they always were when he wasn't stalking through the jungle or carving his name in some enemy's internal organs. Inwardly the Colonel sighed - there was something wrong with this boy: blood and eath had warped him to the point where he could only be normal with a blade in hs hand.

Once again the Colonel pronounced the wellrehearsed words. "For valour in battle and service to the Emperor of unbound courage you are hereby awarded the Star of Terra bear it with pride that you may inspire others to worthy endeavour in the service of Man." The Colonel completed the dedication in a single breath before pinning the ribbon onto Marbo's chest.

This one was for wiping out a whole squad of aliens, killing their commander and capturing their command post single-handed.

He leaned closer to Marbo and asked "You want me to look after it for you son? Like the rest?"

Marbo nodded solemnly.

"Alright son, you can go." The words had barely left the Colonel's lips before Sly Marbo had plunged into the jungle as smoothly as a fish slipping into the stream.

oh and hows it going with you're movies? have you thought up anything else for the club yet?

I've updated my check list with some extra vehicles and secondairy characters. And I've terminated all minor mistakes (Forgive my, Wolf Lord Clawmane.)

And I will survive. I'll try to post the medics report this evening.

Day 37.

I hate my job. Period. But I can’t quit. This afternoon I was ordered, nay, threatened to head back to the bridge by Keller, Salena and Keller to see where the Lt’s at. Once we made it there, it, urm, I’m not good at describing this in words, but it seemed like there was some fight going on. Bronski had his brains blown out, he’s in the morgue now, a shame he had to die so soon. The Lt was still alive, just barely I might add. A punctured lung, stabbed gut and severe bleeding. He was almost bled dry. He almost died there, seeing as Salena got a fit and got all hysterical over him, almost didn’t allow me to do my stuff. After a quick inspection I’ve pumped him full of adrenaline to keep him pumping, then quickly gave him a transplantation. The wounds were field dressed and we tossed him on a stretcher for the infirmary. They were busy with him and just finished, welp, he is going to make it. Nothing to extreme I guess, no bionics, just a lot of stitches and clamps. He did need enough blood transfusions to drain an Ogryn. Tomorrow will be a new day. Well, one last smoke and I’ll turn in for the night. I know they’re bad for me, but hey, with the war going on, dying of a smoke is the least to be worried about.

Things to do tomorrow.
+ Get new smokes!
+ Clean equipment and replace missing and broken
+ Emergency seminar by Chief Medic Kleist – New combat medic techniques.

As for my army: Now its a relativly small Imperial Guard army, with only two tanks (Leman Russ and a Exterminator), two armored fist squads, two full infantry platoons (2x 55 men), seven sentinels (Various patterns, 2x catachan, 3x Mars, 1x Armageddon and one Cadian pattern.), three commissars, one sanctioned psyker, a enginseer with servitors and a anti-tank squad (Lascannon and two missile launchers.) I'm not quite sure what the total in points is, seeing as I use little to no wargear except the most crucial. My guess is round the 1.500 points.

Further improvements will be a Leman Russ Demolisher, several Kasrkin squads and perhaps a hellhound tank. That should be a well-based Imperial Guard army capable of taking ground and pummeling steel.

Sly is a hellova lot more interesting than i expected him to be.
Also, i completely forgot bought story, slipped my mind. most likely i'll post it tommaro.now in the story, we do run like hell away from the attack(honestly if we didn't we'd be retarded) but, scicne Dark Angels are EXTREMELY stubborn i would like to point out sumthing about our squad.
-=QUOTED=- From Gamesworkshop

"Space Marine Scouts are new recruits, not yet fully transformed into a rightful Space Marine. Lightly armored, these units can help you achieve covert operations by sneaking behind enemy lines and causing disruptions. Some squads can be given the option of needler sniper rifles. An effective weapon of precision against any infantry target, no matter how tough. Make use of your scout forces by sowing confusion behind enemy lines, this is their greatest use. Do not send them on important suicide missions however, they have yet to become a true Space Marine. Reserve such honors for those that deserve it!"

if u don't belive me here's the link
http://www.gamesworkshop.com/4...Space_Marine_Troops/Scouts.htm

also u may have noticed if u goto 40k page(click 40k logo on main page then again on next page) they don't show a space marine gallery (and no Imperial Guard either). well i found a site glitch : )

http://www.gamesworkshop.com/4...rsofbattle/sistersofbattle.htm

when u r here, click "Sisters o Battle gallery" at bottom, then click HQ, then click cannones. as u will notice, on the left side of the page u can see any gallery u want.(i am L33T FiNdOrZ lol : ))

well guess that's it.

who's Salena?

1. The Imperial Guard gallery is taking down because soon the NEW CODEX WILL BE RELEASED! 80 NEW PAGES OF FLUFF, GUARDSMEN, DOCTRINES, TANKS AND LOVING TO THE MEN IN FLAK!

2. Ah, Salena... I'll have to dig really deep to explain that one. What if you would meet the girl of your dreams in the 40k universe? Would you let her go? I sure as hell wouldn't!

Uhm, to make a long story short: Me meet girl, girl meet me, I like girl, girl like me, we live happily ever after. Or something like that I guess.
Background.
Full name: Salena Marina Duchess
Native of the planet of Jouran
Gifted with extra-ordinairy fencing skills (which makes me believe that she's from a officers family) and does all mysterious about her past (plotdevice perhaps?)
Wargear.
Sabre, two autopistols and a Jouran ceremonial fighting blade.

I'll post more info on the Jouran later.

Funny how the speculaation of a character works...

I should really get a life. I didn't want to flesh out this character until the end of this year, but it seems I've done some work in advance...

Personal file A12753-KDA
Subject: Salena Marina Duchess
Rank: Acting Sergeant Third Platoon, 5th Company, 13th Regiment
Planet of birth: Joura, capitol planet of the Jouran system.

FEATURES.
Sex: Female
Age: 23
Eyes: Grey
Hair: Brown
Height: 1,79
Distinguishing features: None

BACKGROUND. The Duchess family has a long running line of proud officers serving with the Jouran Dragoons. The family line was tragically destroyed when Sir Colonel Edward Frederick Duchess died along with his wife on the battlefields of Urweint. They died in the glorious battle for the Eleggan Salient. Leaving behind a young daughter that was looked after by an entourage of maids and friends of the family she was soon shipped to the Schola Prognium, where all orphans of fallen soldiers go. She was destined to become a commissar or a political advisor.

PERSONA. But due to her headstrong and brash behaviour she fled the school when she was fifteen and roamed the galaxy alongside the “Freeborn.” They were mercenaries who fought for anybody that could afford to pay them. There the young girl learned to fend for herself and received her twin side arms with which she became a good shot. After four years of roaming with them she left them and went back to Jouran to visit old family friends. From them she received a sabre ordered by her father to be given to her when she was old enough. Once returned she was offered a place with the Jouran Dragoons and in return she would have her family title returned. She refused, instead taking fencing class with the old family weapons master. After a year of training she left Jouran behind and started roaming again, this time towards the conflicts fought by the men of the Imperial Guard. She ended up at the wrong place at the wrong time and got captured by separatists. Before her execution could take place a Cadian Shock Troop regiment breached the prison and started to liberate the prisoners. She to was rescued, but by a young lieutenant who was foolishly in love with her since the moment he first lay his eyes on her. He offered her protection and shelter. She accepted and started to like the guy, he wasn’t half that bad, though an idiot some times…

PRESENT DAY. She is finally accepted and allowed to fight alongside the Cadians. She acts as the unofficial second in command of the lieutenant and as an buffer for emotions and a shoulder to cry on (Call me a pansy, but everybody needs to cry sometimes…) when things get too much. A excellent shot and swordsmanship a dangerous adversary that can outthink and outmanoeuvre most opponents in the first three moves.

Maybe I should build up all characters this way, in a sort of Index Astartes manner.

Ey, do any of you guys have a good and cool name for a Inquisitor based story?

I've tried using the title "The taint" but that sounds more like a failed superhero name. Any kind of title will do.

I'm trying a story interweaved with flashbacks and the present time as a bodyguard of the Inquisitor has trouble with the past and furure...

KTHXBY

Doh, never push the enter ket that fast.

Also, I'm going to give a crack at writing a Space Marine orientated stroy. My question is which chapter should I use? (Before I get the usual Dark Angels and Space Wolves thing, ANY CHAPTER BUT THOSE TWO, I don't hate them, they are two of my favorites, honest. I wan't to do something difirent, but not too special.)

I've been thinking about Black Templars, Blood Angels and the Legion of the Damned. Though the last would be a toughy...

KTHXBY
