Hello ladies and gentlemen of the forum. I come before you to ask the question... does anyone play Dark Heresy online? Some of you are asking, how is this done? How could you do such a think! Blashemphy! Or however you spell it. No I am going sinning against the Emperor I believe if people really put their mind to it, they can get a good game going. Hopefully I'm not ranting and stuff. But their are chatrooms out there, and a think call MUSH, Or MUCK to some. ITs a very BIG chatroom with colors and delights. At this point some Grammar Nazi is looking at this and going nuts. So I guess I'll give one last attempt.
If anyone would like to try playing Dark Heresy Online I am more than willing to try. IM me or Email at [email protected] Thank you for your time
Playing Dark Heresy online?
I'm in three games online. Two on a board (much like this one) and one being run via IRC (chatroom). They're slower than tabletop play (especially Play By Post on forums) but they have some advantages. I wouldn't be able to advise where to look for a game besides here, though.
Hhhhmmm Interesting indeed. So it is being played online. Well then would anyone else like to? I'll be GM.
Oh and for assassin starting out. The Black Bodyglove... IS that for Body or arms? And what is the AP on it? If any. Thx
My gaming group does all of our RP online, usually through IRC. Many gaming forums will have a 'Find Some Players' board, so that'd also be a good place to look. Kinda surprised that FFG doesn't have one, come to think of it.
Anyway, as far as playing Dark Heresy specifically, one of the folks as 1d4chan has released an IRC bot utility for playing the game over chat. It also functions as a general dicebot with features for a couple of other specific systems. You can find it here: servitor bot . The RNG seems fairly balanced, and most of the features are quite useful (or at least mildly amusing).

A regular bodyglove covers the arms, legs and body. Not that it matters, since it doesn't provide any AP and are pretty much clothing. You can get armoured ones, but they're a great deal more expensive.
Dern, I was afraid of that. Well thank you then for letting me know, I was going to call it 2ap all around
I run online over vent and OpenRPG
There was a player locator thread on the old boards.
Thats cool, Hey Aethel mind if I ever watch one of your games to see how it works? If you don't mind of course.
I run a game on rpol.net and play in two others. They are play by post and a blast. My group's tech-priest is going to have to drop out if anyone wants to give him a try.....
The game's name is Burn all Hertics and is adult (18+). Drop me a line if anyone wants to see what all this play by post business is all about.
I'm a fan of the fantasy grounds 2 online virtual table. The warhammer mod works well I hear, need to make a dark heresy one.

In the name of the Emperor,
I would be interested in joining a Dark Heresy game. I have to warn you though - I am on European Time GMT +1 (could cause "lag" in posting, availability etc.)
Emperor protect!
If you need people, I know another person willing to play online. Username is Pedge, if you wanted to send a PM.
