Great job on the ship, Harald! Thanks for doing it.
As for roles, my character doesn't have the important skills for the good ones, so it doesn't really matter to me if we use them or not.

Even if you don't have (all) the important skills, you can still select a role.

That was bad and you should feel bad. :p
"A bad pun a day keeps the doctor away" the saying say.. or was it an apple ? Whatever. My Navis background is up by the way !

final result : 6 slaughts vessels, 4 imperial frigates, 2 imperial cruisers destroyed. Haarlock sent into the warp. 0 losses. Flawless Victory.

Why do your characters have such long names?

Why do the Romans have such long names? Nero Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus. :p

Seems appropriate since I have a family history as old as the Imperium.

Why do your characters have such long names?
- As for mine, a spanish name should be very long (see the full name of Pablo Picasso for instance)
- A navis lineage is very, very old, that should show reverence to both branches, especially if he is from an alliance with an other familly or House.
- Because it is funny,
-Because it is a tradtion in 40K : Inquisitor Sherlock Obiwan Clousseau, anyone ?


Should I try to write things about the ship ? Quirks of the shiop or the crew, points of interest ?

Aren't there some sort of personality traits/history or something that it should have, going by the core rules?

R.A.W, as we have taken the Thulean Exploration Vessel package, we must not roll on the oddities & past histoy tables.
But we can to get the gist of it without the bonus/malus, or elaborate one altogether.

That's a good idea :D You can use the tables for fluff, but the bonuses/penalties have, as Harald explained, been replaced by the background package. Game is on btw.

Adventurous is nice for a Ship, as the Warp Engines, hum...We DO have Miroslav Warp Drives. So them being quirky are up to the course.

You are all wherever you decide to be on the ship as it docks  :D I figured the captain might be on the bridge, but for the rest of you, wherever you feel it's appropriate.

Shoddy justification for having everyone else actually show up to the important bit! :p

I should note that despite being a Mechboy, I can't actually customize my own weapons, and cannot do so until I take the actual mechboy career rank for rank 4, which lets me use Trade: Armourer
