Command being any rarer than that for an Arch-Militant is just unacceptable. Lastly, if anything should be fixed at all in terms of Skills and the Arch-Militant, it's that Command should be Available on Rank 1, Command (+10) on Rank 3, and Command (+20) on Rank 5. At the very least, however, it's a good base to build from and take a look at. The link Erathia posted seems solid, but there's some oddities (most notably, why much with the Skills at all, in that way? I get it, it's for a Death/Feral/Feudal-kind-World Arch-Militant, but it detracts from the idea of just fixing the Arch-Militant into being Melee-Focused). The Arch-Militant is oddly unsuited for melee combat (and Command, even more oddly), and if you want to play a melee Arch-Militant (which is a completely reasonable thing to ask for) the Arch-Militant Career needs a number of tweaks. In Rogue Trader (and the other WH40kRP games) a single hit can be a really big deal, and multiple hits is (or can be) really, really powerful.Īlso, if you intend to be a melee Arch-Militant, speak with your GM. In fact, multiple attacks (Full Auto, Lightning Attack, etc) quickly becomes a larger issue in the game than single hit/round becomes, and if the number of attacks scaled based on Rank (nevermind that nothing else scales by Rank) the combat system would become frightfully bloated and spin wildly out of control really, really fast. And no, there's no homebrews to deal with this 'issue', simply because it's not really an issue at all. It's a matter of you running up to hit someone, just as they start moving to the side to avoid you, yet you manage to get a stab in before they do so. It's not a matter of you running up and hitting someone, and then they run to the side. Let's not forget the aforementioned Swift Attack and Lightning Attack Talents, in regards to melee.īut really, as you say, how many attacks can you really fit into a 3-second round?Įverything going on in a single Turn is supposed to be happening at the same time, which can be a hard time to illustrate as a GM. Blast weapons such as grenades and rockets.

Dual-wield pistols or one-handed melee weapons.Ĥ. Logically, if one White Martain has been able to hide out on Earth all these years, then more could also be living among human beings biding their time and growing their ranks for a renewed assault on Earth.How many attacks can you really fit into a 3 second round? If you want more hits, there are a few ways:ģ. The White Martians have proven time and again that they don't care about the welfare of any lifeform in the universe and that their main goal is to control the entire galaxy. Revealing the presence of a White Martian living in Gotham City for all these years is quite a shock. Even though Tu'emic seems harmless, Madame Xanadu still contacted Doctor Fate to wipe Tu'emic's mind, 'just to be sure.' The story ends with the spirit of Rachel Garris finally finding peace with her long-dead husband, Owen.

'I've made new friends, I've helped my neighbors, and I haven't hurt anybody in all these years,' Tu'emic tells Madame Xanadu and Man-Bat. 'When the White Martians were reawakened,' Tu'emic explains, 'I wanted no part in my people's fight.' Tu'emic was happy in human form and abandoned its fellow hostile Martians in order to live in peace on Earth. Tu'emic found the body of Rachel Garris, an older woman who recently passed away, and assumed her human form.
