Appreciate the offer, but if I do end up running a Discord for this I'd probably want to be running it myself (although I'd definitely appoint moderators if the number of members justifies that). I've moderated communities before and I'm reasonably comfortable with it, but I'm also conscious of the fact that smashing together the Genesys and Warhammer 40k fanbases in one place is liable to turn toxic incredibly fast, I can forsee a lot of nasty clashing opinions there. I'll give it some thought!
 
Currently I'm in the process of setting up a Wordpress page with a comments section enabled, which has nested comments and all that fancy stuff. I'll see how manageable that is.
In terms of Patreon it's something I've considered in the past but there's a few things which make it unappealing to me.
I prefer this conversion to be as freely accessible as possible. It's a niche thing already, paywalling my updates (even if the actual PDFs are public access) could risk shrinking an already small community into non-existence. If I'm taking people's money I'd want to be providing steady, regular updates. As some of you who've been following me for a while might have noticed, I'm pretty bad at that! I don't think it's fair to ask for people's money for my content and then not release something for six months straight. Copyright is potentially a problem. I know a lot of 40k fan projects chug along on Patreon just fine, but I am a little wary that once I turn this from a free fan thing into a profit making enterprise that GW or C7 lawyers might get a bit grumpy with me. I also just don't really need the money, I work full time in a very stable industry that pays reasonably well, so I don't really need to supplement my income (although extra money would certainly be nice to have). Turning this project from a hobby into a side gig could be more stress than it's worth. 
Anyway, here's my Wordpress for now, still setting it up so it doesn't have all my content on there yet. I'm going to try and archive this forum thread too before the forums go down, lots of useful feedback in here over the years that I think is worth preserving.

That's something I've been thinking about this morning. I do post updates to Reddit sporadically, but honestly I really hate Reddit's format and I don't think it really fills the same niche as a forum thread either way. 
I've been thinking it might make sense to make a development blog or something where I can post smaller more regular updates, and then dump new editions or expansions to Reddit? 

I've also toyed with the idea of making a Discord server for this hack, but I'm wary of that because moderating a Discord community seems like it could turn into a headache incredibly quickly.
Open to suggestions!

@Tom Cruise, with the forums shutting down, will you continue posting this on Reddit? Or is there a different place where we can follow your progress?

Thanks! I will check that out too. I'm only about 5 pages in on the thread and about halfway done with your ruleset CRB. And, of course I would credit you. We are still in preliminary stages, but once we have a text file, I'll either post something in this thread, create a new thread and link it here, or both!
 
@Tom CruiseAfter reading you base rules, I think I can perhaps simply expand on what you have, provide suggestions and help add additional Deathwatch content. You've done a good bit of groundwork here already. I have a discord server that I'm using right now for collaboration, if you are interested.

Alright, new character sheet is done. It's a five page sheet now, which is fairly hefty but the last page is fairly optional, I just wanted to provide extra space for talents as my current group filled the standard space super fast.

Working on an overhauled character sheet. More pages to come.

Ever reliable and able to finish things effectively, I decided to start an Adeptus Mechanicus armoury on a whim. Only melee weapons done for now, although there's a list of planned ranged weapons.

Let me know what you think and definitely point out if anything seems to be missing.

Hey all, just popping in to drop a quick update - the 3.1 release is done. This is largely some minor balance tweaks and error corrections, although the armoury received some tweaks to better align with Imperial Armour's vehicle rules.
Here is the changelog - https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-xhkzTd9_ryrICWuTOa-4PPbB7Nbn8acaTxf8C0Rdsw/edit
And here is the 3.1 PDF - https://bit.ly/3fnrBra (Using bit.ly to track clicks as Drive doesn't have this functionality and I'm curious!)
Work on Chambers Militant continues slowly but steadily. Hopefully I'll have something for you soon!!

Safe spaces for old grognards are fine though, god forbid any modern concepts get introduced into games to disrupt those
Pretty much every problem anyone has raised with the X-card is the kind of problem that only comes from *** players you don't want at your table anyway, so like, kick them out if it becomes an issue? Having a simple, non-disruptive way to censor out certain sensitive content on the spot doesn't force you to sign an agreement that you can never have a friendly discussion with the player afterwards about what's up. And that's only if you use the **** thing, it's entirely optional. I don't. Can certainly see the appeal for more publicly accessible games though.
Seems like you guys really need an x-card for when anyone dares to introduce a new idea you're not comfortable with?

I did kind of work on some character sheet templates for Foundry VTT using the Simple World Building system and Simple World Building Plus module. I'm not a good web developer, so I don't know how to set all that stuff up real well.
https://github.com/FilBot3/foundryvtt-simpleworldbuilding-plus-genesys-templates They're nothing fancy.

The character sheet is the incorrect one here. I think I did have Pyromancy keyed to Willpower at one point, probably during the beta testing of the first edition, but I changed that because it made Pyromancy feel like a much more optimal choice than the others. 
The character sheet is well overdue for an update, I'll get on that once Chambers Militant is out in the wild.
