There was about ten years ago a supplement for Fantasy called "the Generals Compendium". Which had a section on Games mastered campaigns for fantasy. Included in this was a set of charts for RPG like characters. I think I have a torrent of it hiding somewhere I can dig up if you're interested. Not so much for the charts themselves as much as for the structuring of it, which I'm sure can be easily adapted for 40k.

TL;DR What we're discussing here will expect a considerable amount of reading and writing throughout its course. There are bigger walls of text out there with much less to say.

I'm so psyched for this I converted up a canoness last night just so I have one to use. Additionally she has the wargear I've always wanted to use even though it is not that good, Namely A FUCKING SILVER STAKE CROSSBOW (aka condemner boltgun).

My whole army for this is just going to be a heirophant titan with the persona of a sassy black woman. Because something something fluff something your mom.

If you something-something'd your way into a 1000-pt battle of your Heirophant vs. whatever will die, that would be amazing. Seriously. Just do it. Nike.
I was also thinking more about named characters and decided there shouldn't really be a limit, but there should be a fluffy justification. Let's consider Inquisitor Coteaz or, fluff wise, someone his equivalent (few and far between). For balance sake, we're all going to start at some abstracted form of Narrative Ground Zero. It's not going to be Escalation style, but you get what I'm saying. Your deeds should have to earn the attention of such prestigious and named figures. Like if Nick's Nids wanted to spawn a Deathleaper, there'd have to be a need to assassinate the fuck out of someone. Or if he really wanted the Baron, well, he's only going to be on the front lines for a good fucking reason, he's the god damned Baron. Also, the same sort of idea can be extended to the inclusion of say, the Fart Eagles' Chapter Master. Ignacious Shartfeather ain't gonna come out of Brown Note Bastion and bring his flagship Silent But Deadly to our little war without good reason. I really want to forge some hard narratives here.
However, just ideas. If anything, I think this should all be taken as recommendation or suggested style of play. Ultimately, I just want everyone to have fun, and if that means bringing Kaldor Draigo right out the gate, then I don't think anyone can really argue against that. I would err on the side of forging a hard fucking narrative though. Super hard.

Also, how am I not getting any love for the Fart Eagles? This is comedy gold, you fucking charlatans.
