Anybody tried to re-create him yet using Deathwatch rules?

I don't think you have to change too much.

1. Change his AP to match new rules (Power or Artificier, depending on your preference.)

3. Change weapon stats

4. Add new basic marine skills/talents (example: Ciphers [Chapter Runes]).

5. Swap out extraneous skills/talents (Basic Weapons Training, Pistol Training, etc)

Alternately, you could just use the stats for Initiate Dane in the GM's Kit; swap his gear and maybe tweak his stats a bit.

Just some thoughts.

Edit: On a semi-related note, I think it'd be really cool if FFG fleshed-out the Hammers of Retribution Chapter. Maybe in Rites of Battle? *crosses fingers*

IIRC, the armour was intended to be Artificier according to one of the BI designers.

I'm going to echo the request for someone to stat up the character in Deathwatch terms, remembering that they're going to have to be of the right level/renown to get artificer armour and a thunderhammer (as pointed out elsewhere). It would be interesting to see how much more frightening that they're going to be above and beyond what existed before...

Though which chapter is he...I would guess Storm Wardens

Nope, he's from the Hammers of Retribution, which would mean having to make up rules for that chapter, or leave off the abilitys/stat increases/etc that the Chapter aspect would give.

Given that Chapter buffing hadn't been invented at the time, it would only require that the closest analogue to the Hammers of Retribution, not that you create a homebrew Chapter. I'm sure that one of the six Chapters provided in Deathwatch will cover the odds since one imagines that was kind of the point in the first place.

Some Things to Point Out:

I tried to match his profile in PtU as much as possible. Consequently, it's kind of wonky. For instance, in his original write-up, Agamorr has the Medicae skill. As we all know, that's a Rank 8 skill. Wheee!!!

I also made an effort to limit the number of advances beyond what was absolutely necessary. All together, he's a Rank 5 marine (~32800 xp). However, at that Rank he doesn't have access to all of his skills and Talents. I leave it up to you: add more advances, ignore the restrictions, or remove the offending skills/talents.

By the way, I statted him as a Storm Warden Assault Marine.

In case you couldn't tell, I'm really bored right now.

Comments and critiques are welcome! Enjoy!

Off the top of my head, Medicae could be covered with an elite advance. The Brother-Sergeant has it, so it's a plausible explanation.

Dude! If this is you bored, I hope you stay bored! Pretty sweet conversion; as true as possible to the original while still embracing the new rules. Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!
