O Mesme...

Project Distant Darkness has five playable characters. All at once is possible as well. har har

@Thane,
Repulsive: BFG:R doesn't matter in this case. Repulsive was sold with small bases, people have it on small bases, fact we need the original rules.

Alright, so far all the confirmed changes are implemented (unless there is a mistake). I have some fixing of the Ork special rules, and then really, we need to figure out what we are going to do with Tyranids, which is always last.

Tin 'eads too.
I don't make the rules, I just think them up and write them down.

I think the BFG:R rules for the 'crons are pretty good however. IMO they can be almost kept as is.

Now that the Imperial Navy fleet is being voted for, what's next? I think we should get some of the smaller fleets out of the way; ones that we don't need to change much like Space Marines and Necrons. Sound good?

Let's finish off necrons; there are almost no points of contention for them.

Hey so I just realised we are including ships that don't exists in GW/FW production (Eldar Supernova, Necron ships, Tyranids, any Book of Nemesis ships that we might add later on). We should include with those ships a blurb on how they could be represented, potentially, for new players who may be just starting modeling, and not feel up to converting yet, or need guidance. (I myself have only just started on this treacherous path, with an Aurora to Solaris minor conversion, and would like ideas for the Supernova...) For example I believe some of the Unique Chaos vessels indicate what ships can be used to represent them.

That's a good idea but I think it should be a separate document that can be more thorough on how to do the conversions necessary.
P.S. I have made a Supernova.

Okay that sounds good, but if that's what we do, we should include a reference to that document in the intro of the others or something.

Also that conversion looks sweet, how did you go about it?

I took a shadow cruiser and put the 40k eldar jetbike front and the jetbike guns on the front of it. It was actually pretty simple! Also, I added a couple bits to it.

Interensting, I would never have thought to use a jetbike, I would've thought (obviously incorrectly) that it would be too big. I would probably have tried to shave off the guns on a VS...

Looks good man.

My Take on the Supernova
I refuse to be killed by something I've never heard of.

What kind of faceplate is that? From what model?
