Forum talk:Tango Squadron character stats

What do you think? A unit of special characters, a single unit of independent characters? --Lither 06:14, February 22, 2010 (UTC)

 * What's a frost blade, and, why not WS 5? He's a (very) hardened and unpredictable veteran. Besides, have you ever tried to parry a swung steel shoe?
 * He is constantly on Psychon during battle from his heart, which has begun acting like a gland. It is only when he overdoses that problems, ie Berserker Rage, occurs. Also, his rampage. You have to be a good fighter to do that. --Lither 08:03, February 22, 2010 (UTC)
 * I already changed it. Yes, it was a bit too powerfull, and soon it will have even more annoying downsides. --Lither 08:47, February 22, 2010 (UTC)
 * There. How is it now? --Lither 08:51, February 22, 2010 (UTC)

I personally dont think ill be contributing to this with Buster Barakus. I created my member of Tango as an RP Character and an enoyable article to write, not as a tabletop character, doing that places too much definite on what is potentially an uncertainty for each member of Tango --color="#001457">War within, War without, War unending 09:00, February 22, 2010 (UTC)
 * This is just for a bit of fun, rather than restricting guidelines directed at each character. --Lither 09:03, February 22, 2010 (UTC)

ws5? Um, no. I don't care how good he is, he won't be as good as a Space Marine Captain. These are guardsmen we're talking about. Patriot398 17:42, February 22, 2010 (UTC)

Working on Deek in the Inquisitor System. //--Run4My Talk 21:58, February 22, 2010 (UTC) Putting up 40k stats for liana and working on Inquisitor rulesVegas adict 22:16, February 22, 2010 (UTC)
 * Working on Rugar for Inquisitor. Hard, though, as I just started playing a month ago.

The real problem im seeing with the 2 characters currently posted are they are simply too powerful. Rugar lazarus could kill Varo Tigurius of the Ultramarines in single combat, hes a bloody space marine, and Liana is roughly at the level of Chronus of the Ultramarines. The stats dont reflect their abilities. According to those two stats (and the fact one is a medic and the other a tank chick) Cale having decades more experience would be at

Virgil would be even higher in the stats with a century over Cale

and Deek, having a century over Virgil

All in all it starts to get ridiculous. Add in the dozen Special Rules the characters have and it goes beyond ridiculous. Well thats my rant and im hoping people actually pay attention, using Inquisitor rules would be much better coz its designed to tell a story, not just win a fight --color="#001457">War within, War without, War unending 07:30, February 23, 2010 (UTC)
 * First of all, Rugar is not "just a medic". Second of all, nothing I ever said suggests anything about a low skill at arms. Third of all, Rugar is a lot stronger than you think, a habit gained from having to hold and steady a Heavy Stubber while firing. Fourth, I included the option for Inquisitor rules. Would you like me to continue with my argument? --Lither 07:41, February 23, 2010 (UTC)

That's not really an argument. And all those stats are superhuman. This is why I said Inquisitor would suit them better. //--Run4My Talk 08:15, February 23, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes, I see your point, but not everyone here may know Inquisitor and its rules. That's why I included the options for both. If everyone wishes to, I will change it to Inquisitor only, though. --Lither 08:32, February 23, 2010 (UTC)

Im not going to let this devolve into an arguement. Rugar Lazarus' page quite clearly shows his primary is as a field medic, which does make him a medic just as clearly as Aslk is a tech priest. To have the stats at the levels they are at would make either the more senior members of Tango as strong as Greater Daemons, or Rugar, with centuries less experience, the most powerful in the unit. It has nothing to do with a low skill at arms or personal strength, but it is common sense these facts are true. Those stats are 40k, not Inquisitor which is my point on why they make less sense.

My whole point refers to thinking about future actions and the other members of the unit, not just the stats of one or 2 characters. That is the end of my points, if you repost in arguement to my points I wont bite back coz thats just immature and things only get worse from there --color="#001457">War within, War without, War unending 09:07, February 23, 2010 (UTC)
 * Nor do I wish to have this delving into an argument. I find arguments rarely usefull or required, but what do you mean, centuries less experience? How old is Rugar? What have I been hinting about him doing over his past years? --Lither 09:16, February 23, 2010 (UTC)

Coletrane born 710.M41, Barakus born 875.M41, Aslk and LeGuie around 900.M41, Richter early 900.M41... On the Tango Squadron article is states Lazarus is a new guy which places him with less experience than those already mentioned (also Vasquez and P'tar who are older than Barakus). The setting is in place and Lazarus cant be a part of Tango longer than those mentioned. Coletrane has centuries more experience than everyone else therby it doesnt matter when he was born or joined he has centuries less experince. Simple Logic, or do you claim Lazarus to be older than the NCO's of the unit? I know I said I wasnt gonna reply but there was a question to be answered --color="#001457">War within, War without, War unending 09:42, February 23, 2010 (UTC)
 * I misunderstood you. I thought you meant age in years, not time in Tango, and I do mean to have Rugar nearly as old as Coletrane. He traveled from Cadia to the other side of the galaxy repeatedly, and time-distroting effects occured. He, as I have numerously stated in the Bernhard article, was recruited by an Inquisitor, being the only survivor of that group who did not have external age, and now he is the sole survivor. --Lither 10:34, February 23, 2010 (UTC)

To do that will clash hugely with several other articles, its not fair to the rest of Tango in my honest opinion, each person must know their place --color="#001457">War within, War without, War unending 11:21, February 23, 2010 (UTC)

Changed lianas stats to more acuratly represent her.The stats are now only slightly better than a IG VETVegas adict 14:15, February 23, 2010 (UTC)

This is rather hypocritical of me since I'm essentially the XO of Tango, but I agree with NoFury that everyone should know their place. Especially since Rugar came late to the game; it wouldn't be right for him to try and establish himself as second with the second most experience when it's already been claimed in the story.

RIGHT, thinking, after I came up with those stats for my Stormeyes, should i help out with the 40K stat bars for these bitches?Chapter Master Bolshack Wildhammer 03:54, March 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * How come some of the stats are sideways now? It makes it hard to read. --Lither 02:17, March 3, 2010 (UTC)
