Warhammer 40k System WIP Input welcome

Killjoy40k

First Post
So I'm Posting this thread in hopes that people with more home brew experience can help me refine my system to the point of being play testable.

It is a warhammer 40k 3.5 system that takes its frame work from pathfinder which is a fact i hope i can steer away from and hopefully make this a fairly unique 3.5 system. things I'm still working out are a full skills array i have used pathfinder skills in descriptions of items but haven't made a full skill list.

The dreadnaught needs alot of overhaul it is in dire need of flavor and technical fine tuning. right now balance is the least of my worries I'm aware the weapons are insanely unballanced in damage. i need ideas for Power and energy weapons as well as a psyker class as the librarian and the grey knight. Any suggestions for equipment is also welcome. I'm hoping i attract some hard core 40k's I have other races planned but not drawn up yet. i will begin those when I'm comfortable with the space marines. No new feats are planned as far as ranged weapons go treat them in the D20 modern rules. i will create a core rule book after I've hashed out the details and found what parts of each system i like.

Space Marines

So first thing I want to fine tune is the race of the space marine them selves. I went with a very human like race with some added things I would like input to make the space marine more balanced/flavor full. I'll be throwing together a check list of things I need to complete and wish list of thing I hope get implemented in future content updates ex. tyrnids, orcs, necron, and other races

Update 8/21 - Altered weapon damages and abilities to be more balanced still work in progress. fixed numerous typos and other mistakes. weapon descriptions still in the works. Chapter tactics is in need of major over hall and is next on my list. suggestions are welcome. When I finish with the tactical marine i will over haul the scout
 

8/23 reconstructed the scout to reflect the slayer but my wish for the scout is to eventually become its own unique class. I will be adding the librarian next as well as constructing the grey knight. after that comes the medic, Chaplin and Tech marine. after those i will work on fine tuning the prestige classes. Dreadnought is still causing me some trouble as far as the process to make a player one and how they will increase in hd after they have become a dreadnought.
 


the link doesnt work for me =(

Yeah, I was a little curious about this as well, but unfortunately, the link doesn't work for me either. Apparently you have to have a certain number of posts to actually post a link you can go to, but even copy/pasting your link into the address bar, Google says that file doesn't exist.

Ahh I see, seems like their link got shortened (Thus the ... in the middle) as well which is why we can't copy/paste.
