Following up on the original thread by the original author (https://forums.giantitp.com/showthread.php?386908-The-All-Guardsmen-Party) and my ill-timed revival thread (https://forums.giantitp.com/showthread.php?631924-The-All-Guardsmen-Party-2-Shoggy-s-revenge) that itself is by now easily old enough to be on the do not post in list, there is now actual movement in the warp. More posts coming from Shoggy Seldom's Warhammer 40K RPG campaign journal "The Adventures of the All Guardsmen Party". The new material will first dewarp in Ork territory on Saturday (https://twitter.com/ShoggySeldom/status/1535293457803124737?cxt=HHwWgoCxpf_Qus4qAAAA), and will reach Imperial space (http://www.theallguardsmenparty.com) "Sunday morning at the latest". Just when Monty Python had finally been quoted often enough you started to genuinely stop expecting the inquisition.
While it's technically only half a chapter, it clocks in at 36,928 words (proper novels start at roughly 50,000 for the whole book), so it's at least about a splinter fleet worth of new guardsman hardships and adventures.
O, right, and let me quote the author himself on what this is all about:
"This is the ongoing tale of a bunch of guardsmen who got drafted into the Inquisition after their regiment was reduced to a mere 37 men by a combination of Orks, Heretics, more Orks, Tyranids, and of course, their own leadership. Currently, they’re working for an Inquisitor that is the 40k equivalent of Professor Oak; he provides teams and missions to Interrogators who need to get some leadership experience before becoming full Inquisitors. The lot of these guardsmen is rather thankless, they’re matched up with five other less combat focused team members, assigned to an Interrogator, and sent out to fight the enemies of the Imperium."
That's your heads-up folks. Schedule some work you can do without paying attention for Monday so you won't be tempted to call in sick.
