If i were to make a 40k storefront, enabling better RPs from 40k rpers, more realism, and to let you keep track of your mighty armies, would anyone use it? I dont want to go through the process of making it (i've started, but its a big affair), only to find no one will use it. Currently space ships and big things (titans and similar) are not included, but probably would be later. The same thing goes for weapons. this would currently be dominated by vehicles, with BFG, Epic, and Forge World style items being added later. so, would you use it?

I don't RP 40k but it's a good idea.

I Rp as a WH40K Based Imperial/Chaos nation (Imagine if Horus had won the Heresy) But I have all my own tech, and wouldn't need to buy more 40K themed things

do you play, by any chance?

Also, the first edition will have 56 items from all playable armies except tyranids and necrons, and I hope to make the storefront fully customizable, with all the different weapon options

I use Imperial weapons and ships, although I am a chaos nation, I would probably buy some things from your store. Mostly weapons or vehicles, I have my own Forge Worlds for the ships and Titans.

just a note, as i will use a budget calculator, Space ships and titans will appear INSANELY cheap, just so im not selling battle tanks for 2 dollars or something.

Well, as long as theres an RP requirement to it. Otherwise we will have a tide of n00bs saying that they want "10000000000 warlrod tittanz and spaec marinez and land riders adn balckston forteses and nghtbirngers!!!111".

thats why im using a budget calculator. however, to make titans and such affordable, vehicle prices will be fairly low (ie $200,000 for a plain Leman Russ), with the ablility to customize them to your liking.

Just for note: Huntaer storefront sells Star Wars stuff, but his partner manages WH:40k stuff in the same threads.

Keep it up though, a little friendly competition never hurt anyone. Yet...

he only sells imperial stuff, but i will sell everything, and hopefully i'll get some other customers that way, as well as by selling ships and titans

I RP a custom/WH40K mix, but, like Chronasia, supply all my own technology.
