The Emperor's Mercy, Omari Godwin Chronicles

By Asajev, in Rogue Trader

Hi guys I know I have been posting often the last couple of days and bringing you some intersting voidships that I have been making for my players and story telling but here we have the star of the show aside from the characters themselves. This is the Emperor's Mercy an Iconoclast Destroyer that has been equipped with missiles so i guess it makes it a missile destroyer.

Emperor's Mercy v1.0

The art was created using photoshop and taking the art of battlefleet gothic and converting it to represent components and my interpretation of how the ship would be transformed over 10,000 or so years of refits. Any questions feel free to ask and any comments are welcome. As some of you may know I am writing a journal style record of the evens that lead up to the campaign from the character Omari Godwin's point of view and then continueing the journal through the players adventures. I was inspire by all the people who are doing write-ups of their games and I think I could do the same. Enjoy.

Nice ship. For the best craftmanship macrobatteries you took 3 modifiers. The archeotech components and xenotech components can also have craftmanship. Another question on can craftmanship influence power requirement for macrobatteries and lances?

the issue with archeotech and xenotech I was not sure I could give them qualit as well on the issue with the macrobateries ou could call it a house rule untll it is FAQ but it makes sense that the better ou component the more morale the ship gets.

What about power can a best craftmanship lance or macrobattery take a -1 reduction to power?

no just space as far as I can tell from the chart on upgrading weapons no sure if that was left out on accident or if the only thing you can take out is space. from a house rule perspective I would say yes but as far as the rule book goes no don't think so.

the question is how did you get the stats for the best craftsmanship? their not listed in either the core book or into the storm, few of your components i can't find listings for. The only things that really made sense was the Empyrean mantle and warpsbane hul, you missile battery will fire every other turn, and has one of the worst critical ratings out there. can't really tell what it's purpose of the vessel is, your fluff looks interesting but i would feel uneasy about bringing it into a fire fight.

Best Quality and component upgrade rules are in Battlefleet Koronus, the other components are as well.
