According to the news feed the last product for Only War was released 9 May 2014. That's over a year ago now. In the mean time I've chewed my nails down to the second knuckle waiting for the last splat book.
Being a pro-active sort of person, and not being one to whinge and complain I've decided it would be good to show FFGs who many people would love to see this book and what we're looking forward to seeing in it. I'm aware that Star-Wars is taking up a lot of man hours at the moment with all the movie hype. God knows I've gotten a bit distracted by the X-Wing miniatures game. Which is saying something considering I count myself as a pure role-player these days. However, I hope if we get enough posters on a thread like the devs can see that there's a market for this book and at least put it in the plan.
I'd rather this thread didn't get distracted by people giving out about things in other peoples lists, issues with other products, etc. Let's try to keep to topic.
So here's my statement:
I'd love to see the last splat book written and I'd love to see the following in it
1 Advanced specialities for the Commissar
- Commissar Commander, Commissar Storm Trooper like (lead by example) guy, Requisition/Logistics expert
2 Advanced specialities for the Stormtrooper
- Basically everything a guardsman can do but no comrades
3 Advanced specialities for the psyker
- The ability to focus on a single discipline for huge powers that cost the player something (corruption, insanity, wounds, memory, etc)
4 The ability to make all Stormtrooper regiment
- Everyone gets lots of skills stats boosts, etc and all the cool kit, but no-one gets comrades. Also needs to be from a schola homeworld.
5 All the vehicles gear and units GW has released for the Imperial Guard
6 Introduction of aeronoutica (flyers) and their rules in play
7 Introduction of fleet actions and how they might affect the battle field
8 Rules for Titan crews and Imperial Knight crews in the same way as regiments can be set up
9 Rules for a small selection of Imperial Knights an Titans
I'm aware some of this is very hopeful, and other parts could be argued don't belong in Only War, but I can always ask.
