Re: The Question of Heresy OOC
How does weapon acquisition work again? I have some trouble understanding it.
Essentially, the Battle Sisters can requisition up to 2 weapons at a time from the Department Ministorium, depending on the rank and subclasses you have. For example, as this just gave me Rank 3, I can pick up a Godwyn De'az Bolter, Flamer, Bolt Pistol, Sword, Hand Flamer, and/or Chainsword with 2 reloads for each range weapon, as long as the place has a fitting armory for Ecclesiarchy Troops (and I'm sure any other GM limitations. Some places may not have certain heavy weapons after all.)
I'll probably pick up a Chainsword and either keep rocking with the Bolter (or perhaps Bolt Pistol) or grab the Flamer whenever I pick up the required weapon proficiency.
The only downside is because I get essentially free weapons of space-marine caliber, the rest of my looting chances essentially get forfeit to either Ecclesiarchy funds or my buddies, minus the need for maybe some bribery change or so on. Still need to divide that funds up, relatedly...
EDIT/ADDENDUM: I guess on a character scale you could have a Sister who would horde findings like others, but I'm shooting this strait even though my char's a bit... unorthodox herself. Both to increase the 'normalcy' factor, Seraph also doesn't have a thing for much possessions anyway. May as well use it to fund the Imperium and other assistants of the Inquisition.
