As long as you have at least one officer in your party (it doesnt have to be your MC) and dont go out of your way to create non-functional builds you will be fine.

Okay so Imma go with Argenta as MVP. You need Cassia or another Officer to really make her shine though. At like lvl 10 once you have a 2 kill Revel in Slaughter to refresh Run and Gun she can take out like 4-5 enemies per turn.
Cassia is completely batshit insane. She asked why I hadn't removed all the peasants vocal cords on the ship because she finds it a bit noisy. She gave me shit about it because a civilized house would have done this. I of course thought that was awesome and immediately started removing vocal cords. BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!
The tech priest is kind of a cool character but there isn't much cool tech priest shit as far as I can tell. He's an operative just like Idira, and Idira's psyker powers make her much better overall.

The tech priest is my Swiss Army knife and his machine spirit buff lowers recoil on all ally’s so that alone makes him worth the slot. argenta with a precise bolter and lower recoil…
I gave Henrix a shredder pistol and fucker doesn’t miss for like 80+ dmg a burst on top of his power sword swings.

50 hours in, not sure if minor or major spoilers
Got the ships AI talking...I love 40K and how they have lost way more old powerful technology then they can imagine so when they run into "dark age tech" they call it Heresy. From a meta games stand point I have no idea if allowing this thing to stay on my ship will bite me but we going to see what happens.

I thought it was the same voice from Dragons Dogma but I can't find her there.

It's not just 'omg thats dark age tech, its heretical', it's specifically any form of thinking machine. That's why they use servitors in the first place, not because they lost the ability to create robots but because if it has a human mind at the core its safe. Although I'm sure robot creation is also lostech now too.

an actual A.I? or machine spirit, etc? 40k follows the Dune rules of A.I.. super illegal. They all turned genocidal, so humanity had to ban them, and rely on Humanity first. hence, servitors, navigators etc, instead of relying on A.I. its not just, oh no, scary thing we don't understand. its, these things all tried to kill us, so any A.I. use is banned. one of the first major wars of the Imperium was against another human empire that relied on A.I. heavily as well. cyborgs, and trans-humanists.

The techpriest called it a machine spirit but I am 90% sure it is AI because last I checked machine spirits don't speak low gothic or directly at all to its users.

I don't know wtf I'm doing. I don't really know a lot about warhammer 40K, for some reason I thought there were orcs? Anyhow I like Owlcat games so I bought this. For not knowing wtf is going on I am having a lot of fun. The story is crazy.
Btw is there somewhere to go that shows what the officer/operative etc powers do /how to use? The pop-ups and the tutorial that is part of the game are not much help to my dumb ass.

The strength of the officer is extremely powerful party buffs but any companion officer is fine. Making your MC an officer is kinda like choosing to make your MC a skald or brown-fur transmuter in WotR.

My Lord Captain is a pyro psyker with the ancient force sword from a rando-planrt encounter and he just annihilates shit. Use the first round (or officer +turn) to set himself on fire and then lock the fire on and then just runs around doing ludicrous damage to whole swaths of bad guys while parry/dodging everything.
I feel like I'm not using the Tech Priest to his full capabilities as I stumble a bit with all the zone placement and such. I use the Inquisitor-bro as a cleric/heal bot.

There are Orcs in 40k. Depends on which story they are telling but for me Orcs are comedy relief and literally everything else is more interesting.

So far IMO its better than Wrath of Righteous. But Im only in the first acts. If you like owlcat games, then you will like this. Atmosphere is 40K and story and writing so far is top notch.
