If you want an officer RT to have some options for direct action against the enemy take sanctioned psyker origin. Noble officer is basically pure buff bot.

Just started this.
I hate, absolutely fucking loathe, the premade portrait system. Fucking despise it.
Should I get the DLC's before I get too far, like do they unlock/add shit I would rather have had access to in the first place if I had know?

Id get the DLCs. Both can be started almost immediately.

Yes, they add extensive quests that are interwoven throughout the base story seamlessly as well as companions & their companion quests.

Totally worth it. I'm on chapter 4 right now, and the game is amazing. The DLC quest specifically with the assassin lady are awesome, plus she's easily one of your strongest party members.

The fucking squid dude first boss killed my party because I suck at these games.
Uninstalled.
j/k, I beat him the second time by adjusting my tactics. You know, learning from a loss and doing better the second time.
Setting is interesting.
This is also my first real dive into Warhammer, never got into it on any level. Knew it existed but nothing beyond that. Wow, did I ever dodge a bullet there.
Game is neat.

Its even worse if you create a pyro/executioner version of the baldedancer. He/She literally deletes entire screens of enemies in a single action using flames. And the ones left over are deleted with blades.

How do you do that, through respec? I haven't respecced anybody yet.
I mean I'm almost done with the game, but some of my builds are probably completely retarded, but I make them work. I'm just playing on normal though. I just get tired of having to try to figure out what new skill to pick and the game doesn't do a very good job of telling you what might be important and what isn't.
It's probably because I'm thinking in the d&d mindset and I'm trying to equate everything with that system, but this one definitely seems to be different.

He means a pyro/bladedancer MC. Pyro/anything MC is a killing machine, although just about anything/anything MC is a killing machine if built for combat. Really the only thing the MC isn't the best at is automatically going first in combat and spamming navigator powers.

Yeah for the characters that I didn't use, who were sometimes forced into my party, I just went with whatever this spreadsheet had instead of taking the time to think about their build. I had to put the points somewhere because the loud levelup sound plays every time you get any exp from a skillcheck if you don't.

I remember the gameplay being pyro/exec get double turn from grand strategist and then the next turn as well from some item. Then you use the map wide exec heroic action and pyro flame. More or less all encounters are over after these first 2 guys actions with 0 action taken by the ennemies, no matter how spread out they are. The most broken combination ive experienced in this game by far.

Not sure why but Owlcat always puts like a dozen portraits in the game. Its never enough. Like 50-100 would be ideal.

I remember for the other game of theirs I downloaded a whole bunch from that one mod site. they have like packs of them you can download. Im sure they would have them for this game too. Not sure how, but you can have AI generate some portraits for you too. But im not sure if its hard or easy to add to the game.

I used AI to generate portraits for Pathfinder. Wasn't difficult.

Never been much for playing Warhammer computer games, only a little of the tabletop in my younger days, they've always seemed to have a bad rep, but was pleasantly suprised by this one, solid owlcat RPG with solid story and characters. Never was much into the imperium and didn't really get how its somehow portraying a post apocalyptic society in some ways with calling computer programs "machine spirits" and using incense and crap on computers. anyway the only issue was the turn based combat that for some battles could take upwards to an hour or so. although once you got the power to give anyone a heroic act immediately the game was essentially over:
be a powerful psyker as main char, have Cassia in party, Cassia always starts, she gives me a short round, my char give her the heroic act, she gives me Finest Hour so my char gets a whole round with unlimited attacks, cleanse the battlefield with fire before any enemies get to act (aside from some bossess that get to cheat once their HP gets low enough).
