Warhammer 40k Deathwatch oneshot
Looking to run a one shot Deathwatch game, want to test out the system, mission system seems to be good for a one shot.
Also looking for the potential to start a long term group depending on how things go.
No date or time yet, although would like to start in early May.
Day of the week will be Weekday (Tuesday-Friday), will have to be morning time. Thinking of 9am PST give or take a few hours for start.
**NOTE** Im doing the same thing when I started my star wars game, this game will use premades made by me using only base rulebook. I want to get a baseline of abilities and stats without players making their own niche. I am learning this system and don't want to be flipping through books for learning. For a long term game all options will be made open and character creation from other books.
**NOTE** As with the premades, I have many ideas for making missions. But the staring Oneshot will most likely use one of the premade short adventures, possible from the base rulebook. So I know it may annoy some of you that have already read through it and or done it previously. Think of the first Oneshot as a way of seeing if the group meshes with eachother to continue playing into a long term campaign.

Hey! Your the man that made the ruleset for fantasygrounds right. Nice work on that, took me a bit to start figuring out all the little bells and whistles on the pages.

40k is by far my favorite universe. I'm in for anything, one shot, long term, Deathwatch, Black Crusade. I am so happy to see someone running one.

I love the setting myself. I run both Dnd (5th ed) and Star Wars (FFG), although I love both systems, they are not tactical, and I want to scratch that itch. So blowing up filthy xenos, removing the heads from heretics and blowing stuff up sounds fun.
I really would like to turn this into a long term game.

Hey,
I came over from the ffg forums to express interest - I've been GMing for a long time, so I get to play only occasionally, which is a pity. I'm hoping to remedy this by signing up here
Sadly, my gaming time is fairly limited by a 9-5 office job and the fact that I'm located in the GMT+1 timezone, so it's gonna be tight, but if there's any chance we can make this work, I'm in.
