rolled 43 = 43

Okay.

rolled 6 = 6

no

rolled 43 = 43

Our first roll was 89, which lands us on a Frontier World on the edges of the Imperium, where the grip of the Imperial fist is weak. There are liberties available here which worlds well under the heel of the ecclesiarchy can only dream of.

Next, we determine the tech level of our world, what technology is native to this world and need not be imported from elsewhere. Since we are on a Frontier World, we're rolling 35 + 2d10, which may seem low but then the table only goes from 1 to 6.

rolled 16 = 16

4 + 3 = 7
7 + 35 = 42
42 = Low Imperial.

Low Imperial is pretty good. The options are like this: Stone Age, Iron Age, Steel Age, Pre-Industrial, Industrial, Early Space, Advanced Space, Warp Space, and finally Low, Mid and High Imperial, with Advanced towering even above Imperial technology. As a Low Imperial Planet, we have the capability to make warp-capable spaceships, and we can easily make cybernetics, las weaponry, etc. Basically, everything that isn't listed as Rare or Very Rare is in our grasp.

Next, the size of our star.

Interesting, please proceed

>>4697442
Our star is almost inevitably medium sized, since that option spans from 15 to 75.

The next portion will include a lot of rolling, since you have to figure out the influence of each and every part of the Imperium on your world. So I'll do it on an online dice roller, and report the results. But since we're a frontier world, we already know that the Adeptus Arbited and Adeptus Astronomica have no presence here, which is kind of worrying considering that we can build ships with Geller fields.

rolled 99 = 99

>>4697469
Rolls on Frontiers are very low, but even so, this is kind of odd. Only the Adeptus Astra Telepathica, the Adeptus Mechanicum and the Adeptus Ministorum have even a token presence on this world, and that for administrative purposes only. This basically boils down to having a branch office open in at least one city somewhere on the surface, but no more. There is no Inquisition or Administratum presence on this planet at all, along with no Adeptus Arbites or Astronomica.

Next, the size of this remarkably free world, which ranges from 5000 km in circumference to 500,000, with Holy Terra being at 40,000.

rolled 4, 7, 9, 6, 2, 4, 8, 7, 2, 7 = 56

>>4697503
Holy shit.

This is a massive world, one of the largest populated planets in the galaxy. I hope it's hollow or really not dense at all, because otherwise this is scary. Now to figure out how large we really are, using (10d10x5)x1000km.

This thread is fucking awesome.

I mean, hot damn. At first I was like, .

But then I was like, !

By the way OP, I'm stealing this world. Whatever it ends up being like.

rolled 64 = 64

>>4697515
280,000 km circumference. This planet has a planetary surface 49 times bigger than that of Holy Terra. Jesus fucking Christ. It really can't afford to be dense at all. That means there's no useful natural resources on the planet itself, which has to be fluffy or else crush all to death. Probably anything used in a factory has to come from asteroid mining.

At any rate, how big a tilt does our monster planet have? This affects how much termperatures fluctuate from summer to winter.

I didn't know Dark Heresy had planet generation rules

Goddammit OP. You aren't really rolling. This is copypaste faggotry :(

rolled 92 = 92

>>4697556
The axial tilt is moderate, between 16-25 degrees. In winter and summer, a deviation of a maximum of twenty degrees Celsius can be expected form this.

Now we roll how long the day is, for which, given that our planet is so fucking huge, we get a nice +50 modifier to make sure it takes very long indeed.

This is just getting more and more hardcore fucking awesome.

Demandan archive once planet is done.

fuck

rolled 7, 2, 1, 5, 5, 7, 7, 10, 3, 1 = 48

>>4697571
Dude, you can see that I'm rolling. Check the email.

Anyway,
>>4697574
Fucking hell, here we go again. 92 + 50 = 142, which means we get the longest day possible. 10d10x3 hours for planetary rotation! WHO THE HELL LIVES ON THIS WORLD, MAN?

>>4697556
This planet is between the size of Uranus [160,590km's] and Saturn [378,680km's].

I don't think it's even possible for rocky planets to get that big. It's probably a gas giant. As a gas giant, the population could live entirely within an oxygen/nitrogen air mix at an altitude where the temperature, pressure and gravity is Earth normal on cloud cities. Mining various gases from lower altitudes and getting metals from the various moons.

>>4697571
Does it matter?

Is the planetary generator in one of the books?

>>4697574
Man, sucks to be working class on this planet.

>>4697592
>WHO THE HELL LIVES ON THIS WORLD, MAN?
I don't know, but they'd be fucking hardcore.

>>4697592
You've basically created a giant Venus.

>>4697556
The planet is made of Candy Floss. There shall be no argument over this, search your heart you know it to be true.

>>4697571
Except he's using the dice functions, and taking a long time to reply thus suggesting he's reacting to the results as he gets them?

>>4697592
>WHO THE HELL LIVES ON THIS WORLD, MAN?

Squats.

>>4697594
>>4697592
>>4697556
Now you know why there's only a token imperial presence on the world. It's not inhabitable. It's a mining colony.

SHOOT THE WORLD

THAT'LL TEACH IT

rolled 84 = 84

>>4697598
It's this PDF I have. I'm not sure if it's on /rs/ or not. If it's not, I'll upload it as soon as I'm done with this planet.

>>4697594
Well, Low Imperial technology is advanced enough to allow us to build GRIM DARK CLOUD CITY, like in The Guns of Tanith.

>>4697592
One day takes 144 hours. Precisely 6 Earth-days.

Now how long a year is. Our size doesn't affect this in the slightest.

rolled 7, 1, 4, 2, 3, 4, 6, 10, 9, 7 = 53

>>4697632
Of course, as always, bigger is better. A local year is 10d10x9 Earth-days, and we'll see how much that is in local days. I'm not that good at astronomy, is it possible to figure out how far away from a star you are by how long your year is?

This seems fairly cool. Grimdark Cloud City. Where you pray to the Emperor that the Inquisitors don't alter the deal further.

Large gas giant without any real form of control from the oppressive authorities, where the populace reside in floating cities in orbit.

Well done OP, you've just created Bespin.

>>4697648
No.

Well... not really.

The further you are from the star, the longer a 'year' will take. But if you're moving fast enough around it, you can still have a shorter year than planets closer to the star.

>>4697648
Curious.
The local year is 79.5 local days long.
I'm guessing that's all the timekeeping they bother with.

I gotta leave work in the next twenty minutes, any chance I can beg you to upload that pdf before I have to leave the broadband here, OP?

rolled 8 = 8

>>4697648
There are 477 days in a year, making it 1.3 times longer than that of Holy Terra. In terms of local days, the year is 79 days long, with every other year being a leap year.

How many moons does this motherfucker have? As always, being HUGE means we have HUGE AMOUNTS OF MOONS. Or in other words, a +50 modifier.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbital_period#Small_body_orbiting_a_central_body

Small is relative I guess.

>>4697668
Fine.

>>4697681
You have my undying gratitude, sir.

http://rapidshare.com/files/238498726/Warhammer_40k_-_PlanetGeneratorV2.pdf

Oh damn, 436k? Sorry for making you go through that in advance, I didn't realize it would be small.

Still, you are a consummate pleasan/tg/entleman and I thank you.

rolled 5 = 5

>>4697670
Anyway, at 8, or more accurately 58, we have quite a sane number of moons. Just 1d5. Pity, I was hoping that we'd have something crazy like Saturn.

>>4697694
Well, if it's close enough to the sun or any other planetary orbits they could've easily been thrown into the sun or into space.

On the other hand, they could've been used for testing certain weapons which turned them into a ring instead.

>>4697694
5 moons is still a lot if they are large.

They could each be the size of Earth, for instance.

And possibly habitable if this planet exists in the appropriate region around its star.

Do we roll for Mass at any stage? I need it to work out standard gravitational parameter.

rolled 21 = 21

Now we are rolling how strong the gravity is. Oddly enough, the size of our planet has absolutely no effect on how many g's we have to suffer through. I'm still a supporter of Hollow Earth Theory, but it might be that we're floating high above the clouds of a gas giant as the poster earlier indicated. I'll make a decision once I see what the atmosphere is like.

Now for gravity.

(FUCK, I POSTED THIS IN THE ANGRY MCCAIN THREAD)

>>4697694
Does the book describe a way to get the size of the moons?

Because if not, we could roll for each one - make the maximum size for a moon to be say, 1/5th of the planet's.

So for example, between say 500 km's and 58,000km's circumference.

I suspect this planet is corrupted by Chaos. What other forces would actually WANT to live there?

rolled 4 = 4

>>4697721
There is nothing interesting about our gravity at all. it is between 0.8 to 1.2 g, and thus has no effect mechanically on the game. If it had been bigger or smaller, you get bonuses or penalties to agility, strength and toughness for certain purposes.

Now we roll atmosphere. We aren't interested in atmospheric pressure, but in the mix of gasses involved. It can either be okay, unpleasant but survivable, tainted, poisonous or downright deadly. This is what will tell us if we're on a gas giant or not, I'd say, since a gas giant will not have a breathable atmosphere.

Unless it does. A gas giant made of carbon dioxide and oxygen? With flying trees floating in the denser portions of the atmosphere.

>this thread

Not the anon that asked, but thank you for uploading the .pdf

rolled 78 = 78

>>4697728
It doesn't say anything about the moons, beyond how many there are. That is indeed an option, but for now I'll go on to see what we can learn of the main planet itself.

>>4697745
The air is fucking awesome, man. It's got that fresh morning crispness you get in the mountains during spring. It just makes you want to stand there and breathe in huge lungfuls of that awesome air while dew drops glitter on the grass around you. That's how nice our atmosphere is.

Next is the Hydrosphere. How much water is there around? Not expressed in percentages, of course, but general description.

>>4697745
Probably not very likely, since oxygen is one of those kinds of gases that needs to be constantly replaced due to it reacting with everything.

And trees aren't exactly going to be floating around on a gas giant.

MAYBE some kind of oxygen producing algae-like plant, lighter than air, floats around getting moisture from the atmosphere and sunlight from the sun. Not sure if algae need more than just water+sunlight to survive/exist though.

>>4697768
>It's got that fresh morning crispness you get in the mountains during spring.

inb4 planet is the afro of bob ross

rolled 41 = 41

>>4697768
Our world is deliciously moist, with lots of rainfall, big oceans and permanently sodden ground. Alternatively, if you're really into gas giants, we can argue that we have here a real honest to got Nepture As It Ought To Be, made of Carbon Dioxide, Oxygen and water vapor.

Next is Terrain. Warhammer 40k is somewhat prone to creating planets with only a single type of terrain and biome, like Star Wars, so we're likely to get stuff like a Forest Moon or so on. In this case, we first roll to find how many types of terrain there are on the planet, so we might get a planet that has a Forest, or a planet that has a Forest, some Mountains and even a few Caves.

>>4697801
That's three terrain types.

You also missed out temperature.

rolled 3, 86, 45 = 134

>>4697801
At 41, our planet (since the tables assume we're not in fact going with a gas giant and in fact do not acknowledge the possibility that you might) is interesting enough to support three different types of terrain. Or, if you want to interpret it differently, three different types of terrain are interesting on this planet. I will reroll if the three different types turn out to be the same type, though this is unlikely.

>>4697675
According to my rough calculations and assuming a sun-like star the semi-major axis is 178,733,261ish km. Sounds about right.

rolled 9, 2, 37 = 48

>>4697811
You're right, will fix that.

>>4697820
Our planet is a planet of grasslands, small ravines...AND ACTIVE VOLCANOES.

Also, temperature.

rolled 54 = 54

>>4697831
Er, temperature again. This time properly.

Does being fucking huge have an effect to the amount of biomes?

>>4697824
If I'm reading this right...

The semi-major axis = the distance from this planet to its star. Which is apparently 178,733,261 km's.

The Earth is 150,000,000 km's from the sun. Mars is about 205,000,000 km's.

>>4697831
active volcanoes on a world this big what the hell
what the hell man.

This shit is fucked up.

Holy shit.
According to my roles my planets length of day is aprox. 1 hour

rolled 63 = 63

>>4697834
Completely and utterly average, with temperatures going from -10 degrees celsius to + 30.

We are expected to figure out the Climate, the Continents and the native flora and fauna on our own. For now, I will neglect this because there is more rolling to do! Specifically, we still don't know how many people actually live on this huge, monstrous, completely ignored by the Imperium planet where the air is clean and the water is damn fine.

Since we are a frontier world on the edges of the Imperium, we are sparsely populated and get a -20 modifier to our population. But since we are still HUGE, HUGE, SO FUCKING HUGE HOLY SHIT LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THAT THING, we also get a +40 modifier! So we end up at +20.

At any rate, we're not allowed to roll over 25 billion, since that is the population of Scintilla.

>>4697861
haha, you're planet looks like a squashed ball. Possibly even like a very thick discus.

>>4697853
This is Warhammer 40k.

We can just blame that shit on Chaos or something. Maybe some Orks got into the planet's core. Whatever.

okay Assuming 1g is at surface we have a rotational radius of 110,000 km.
1 AU is 149 598 000 km.

I don't think so Tim.

rolled 10 = 10

>>4697838
No, and neither does anything else. You can technically have grassland on a world without water. The PDF is somewhat lacking in this department.

>>4697861
Your planet is a rollercoaster!

>>4697841
Nice, thanks.

>>4697863
At 63, we have 1d10 hundred million people on this planet. With only a token presence by only a few of the Imperium's major players. There's just something so totally off here and I can't put my finger on what it is.

>>4697879
I don't even understand what you're saying.

>>4697877
Newbeard here. Is "Chaos did it" similar to "a Wizard did it"?

>>4697861
Everybody in light-compensating goggles!

>>4697882
You forgot to add the +20 to the roll. Should be 1d5 billion

>>4697879
Ah fuck I've realised what I did. And I can't be fucked fixing it.

>>4697863
I can't see this world being anything other than a pit-stop for rogue traders. It's too big to have any valuable resources and any resources there are, would end up being spewed out of those active volcanoes. Unless the resources flow back into the planet via the ravines.

Now I am imagining a wonderful, beautiful grassy planet COVERED IN MAGMA STREAMS

>>4697882
you have a world that should be full of imperial presence but just isnt with advanced technology. this could be an interesting campaign.

rolled 86 = 86

>>4697882
ONE BILLION PEOPLE HOLY FUCK.

Now for our system of government! There is a 10% chance that we are a democracy! Of course, there is a much larger chance that we are under one of several flavors of Dictators, a monarchy or some sort of theocracy.

>>4697882
>Something is off.
Clearly this is a contested planet. The Imperium had a strong hold, but some things have gone tits up and they're relying messages instead of living there.

>>4697894
Okay then, divide the result by 2.
5.
5 billion people.

>>4697887
Pretty much.

>>4697899
HEY OP YOU FORGOT TO ADD +20 TO YOUR POPULATION ROLL. IT'S 1D5 BILLION NOT 1D10 HUNDRED MILLION

LIEK OMG

rolled 73 = 73

>>4697902
There are 5 billion people on this planet, and they are ruled by a Church of the Machine God. A church of the machine god which is NOT ASSOCIATED WITH THE ADEPTUS MECHANICUM.

>>4697917
oh god what. so we have a warp capable planet run by tech heretics with very little imperial presence and no arbites or administratum?

>>4697887
Yeah, but with more OH GOD I CAN SEE FOREVER.

>>4697917

Dun Dun DUUUUN

>>4697936
Yes. Not only that, but the Mechanicum is aware of this and have a token official presence there nevertheless. The Ministorum too.

>>4697936
Sounds like heresy to me.

>>4697936
Hmm, this planet shall be named...
Ix.

>>4697949
Aren't the mechanicus and ministorum basically at each others' throats?

rolled 77, 68, 8, 93, 80, 88, 39 = 453

The last and final remaining thing to find out is what, if any, standing armies this world has. Since we're a frontier world, we're pretty much screwed on that point, as despite our tech level, we cannot afford to constantly maintain orbital defense lasers, missile silos or a titan force.

>>4697955
That was a lot of work just to rip off Herbert.

>>4697953
Too be honest, Friend Fuklaw, everything sounds like heresy to you.

>>4697972
THAT'S HERESY!

>>4697917
Right.
Let me conjure up an image here.
I'm imagining huge tectonic disruptions on a huge planet. The world is covered in thousands of light, fluffy tectonic plates that can be better described as tectonic candyfloss. There are hundreds of active volcanoes all over the place, filling these gaps with lava. Where there are not volcanoes, the land is lovely and fertile, giving way to endless beautiful fields.
The population density is tiny. You get small, isolated communities that don't really get off of their plates. Structures would be difficult to build because of the light and fluffy soil that has the density of candy floss. Walking on this planet is like wading through a swamp. I see hovercraft coming into extensive use here.

>>4697970
... Not a single standing force.

...and...NOTHING. THERE IS NOTHING. THERE IS NO STANDING FORCE OR ARMY. The only time these guys have even a single person armed and ready to fight a war is if they explicitly decide they need an army for the duration of the emergency.

Maybe this is some sort of condition to be allowed to exist? "We'll let you have your planet so long as you never, ever have even the slightest army which would require actual effort for us to kick over."

THIS PLANET SHOULD NOT EXIST.
IT IS AN ABOMINATION

This is sounding more and more like a relatively calm and peaceful planet that has an undercurrent steeped deeply in politics.

I'm intrigued about the technocracy that runs the planet.

This might actually be one of the few worlds where some kind of research is performed.

>>4698004
Perfect for a Dark Heresy campaign.

Even better if it's a gas giant with moons, as it allows travel to completely new, separate locations [the moons] without entering the warp.

>>4697998
>Length of Day: 1 Hour
>Length of Year: 1128 days (Terran Year:0.12)

Is that even physically possible for a planet of that size?!

>>4697998
I'm home now and having fun with this. I've rolled up some sort of tiny hell world with everyone living in some sort of subterranean cave network, mining and working for the administratum.

This is hilarious, really; I got a radius of 17k km, on an average world. It should be tiny, by all rights.

>>4697994
THIS PARTY'S GETTING etc etc

>>4698014
I was just about to post that...

>>4698014
The moons might have the answer. That's where the Imperial Forces are... I'm sure of it.

>>4697998
Wait. You made a Bespin like gas giant ruled by a divergent technocratic faction, and despite all odds, it has a HUGE amount of titans?! Comparable to a forge world?!

>>4698017
The best idea is to imagine it spinning so fast that anything that isn't absolutely certainly bolted straight down into the ground gets through off, causing the planet to leave a trail of asteroids in its wake.
Then it orbits back again, and its gravity pulls the asteroids into the ground, creating massive tremors.

A constant cycle of destruction that keeps the planet a wasteland. Althouh I imagine it would be quite a beautiful sight, looking out a window beneath the surface, up at the sky and the sun shoots through the sky in under half an hour.

>>4698028
No, the divergents are on the grassy volcanic frontier world. The Dominated-By-Mechanicum forge world with the one hour day has ONE HUNDRED TITANS TO LOSE.

>>4698017
I'm sure the planet will flatten itself and chunks of it will start to fly out from its "equator". 1 hour rotation, what the fuck.

>>4698028
It is a Forge World.

Alright, let's figure out what size the moons are.

If we go by 1/5th the size of the parent planet as the maximum, we get the convenient table of

Size || 000's of km's
Miniscule 1d10+4
Tiny 2d10
Small 4d10
Average 10d10
Large (10d10)x2

With the largest being roughly 1/5th the size of the planet. But what should the necessary rolls be? Evenly split 100 into 5 parts? Make it a smaller chance for miniscule and large, but greater chance for average?

>>4698033
>Althouh I imagine it would be quite a beautiful sight.

>Atmosphere: Poisonous
>Hydrosphere: Moist
>Terrain: Plateaus

I... don't think so

>>4698038
...As well as A HUNDRED BANEBLADES?

>>4698004

So what is the ecology on a place like this?

>>4698056
Probably very, very dead.

>>4698038
Unfortunately Gov'ner One hundred Titans have just gone out to serve...

>>4698056
Volcanic soil is very fertile, so I'd imagine that you basically have rafts of blooming plants floating on a sea of magma.

>>4698047
I'm talking about the sky, you dolt.

>>4698039

Horray for random dice rolls

>>4698048
I have a theory about those baneblades. I think Creed steals them and then deploys them out of fucking nowhere right behind his enemy's back.

I think this is reasonable. Let's see what we get.

>>4698062

A moist poisonous sky with whirling amounts of crushed mountains all around as the sun speeds across the sky?

>>4698072
Maybe not conventionally beautiful, but certainly an epic spectacle to behold.

Addendum: Wait a minute. Grimdark Discworld?

Is there a roll to check whether it's held by four very nauseous elephants on the back of a giant turtle that likes to spin way too much?

>>4698067
But that would take some sort of tactica-

>>4698074

Truely a once in a lifetime experience, no doubt about that.

>>4698061
I am imagining something like this.
Surface lava cools to an exceptable level, is extremely fertile, leaving thousands of islands in the middle of magma oceans.
Rainfall would be just about constant. I'm imagining a very tropical sort of world here. Several of these islands would become basins where water is collected, while the rest of water probably pours back off into the magma and is recycled as steam again that goes up into the atmosphere and rains down.

God damn, this frontier planet almost sounds like a nice place to live except for all the magma.

>>4698072

That actually sounds like a rather awesome thing to see.

>>4698086
Keep in mind that in spite of all this, the atmosphere is crisp and clean. I imagine the rain cleans the air of any ash. Also, I suspect this would be quite a windy planet, since the magma and the volcanoes would maintain a constant network of pillars of rising warm air, which then cools and spreads our and falls and then flows back to the rising warm air.

Alright, the five moons of the OP's planet are:

Moon 1 = 57,000 km's circumference
Moon 2 = 35,000 km's circumference
Moon 3 = 16,000 km's circumference
Moon 4 = 09,000 km's circumference
Moon 5 = 13,000 km's circumference

You know, with that many moons, my first instinct is to say "fuck, the tides are going to be crazy on that world" but considering the sheer SIZE AND SCALE of the place...well, maybe not.

>>4698072
Yes, wouldn't it look incredible?

>>4698134
Given the world is SPINNING ITS OWN GUTS OUT, I'd say this is the least of our worries.

Actually, with all the magma and death running around, I wouldn't be surprised if this "Imperial World" is just a Dwarf Fortress game in disguise.

Planet was created by Chaos. It is the only way.

So could someone summarize OP's planet like the dude with the 1 hour day did with his?

>>4698149

Spinning Death Ball is not the planet OP is working on.

>>4698106
Yeah.
I still think hovercraft would be the primary method of transport really. It's best to keep your feet off the soft, crumbly volcanic soil unleash it gives way and you end up sliding into a ravine.
Think of it as having the density of snow. That should help. After a few feet down, it might be packed good 'n tough but otherwise, it'll be all soft and fluffy and you'd have to wade through it.

>>4698165
Ah, my bad.

Where can I find that Generator? Wich book? Someone RS that shit!

Thanks guys, sorry 4 being a blind fag^^

>>4698171
Heck, even where the soil wasn't like loose snow, you'd probably be faced with crazy overgrown grass that might be taller than a man can see.

>>4698199
Florida Everglades, with added MAGMA!

>>4698209
Not to mention various hot springs and mud volcanoes.

Since the file is so small, can someone chuck it on Megaupload or something? Rapidshare doesn't work for me.

>>4698187
This planet shall be our Squat Fortress! Thanks for making this thread, OP.

>>4698230
Do you need an account to upload there?

I'm on it

Do any of you guys mind if I make another planet?

Cheers, much appreciated

rolled 61 = 61

>>4698250
Let's start with type, then.

rolled 1, 9, 2, 8 + 20 = 40

>>4698255
Oooh, shrine world.
Tech level time.

To separate the planets, we can call the first planet Ix, the second Squat Fortress and we'll see what this third planet develops into.

rolled 95 = 95

>>4698264
We've got a warp-space shrine world. That's okay.
Now, star size.

so /tg/, what effect does the size of the star have in anything, honestly?

rolled 4, 7, 1, 3, 5, 1, 10 + 4 = 35

>>4698272
ohshi HUGE SUN.

Hopefully this won't be too bad for us. Time for our relations.

None. You'd think it'd influence the temperature, but it doesn't.

rolled 2, 1, 2, 2 = 7

Now for the rest.

rolled 40 = 40

... Wow, so those are the only present factions, then.
Planet size time.

rolled 2, 5, 4, 2, 1, 4, 9, 6, 3, 5 = 41

>>4698297
How irritating - average.
Let's roll, anyway.

rolled 17 = 17

>>4698300
41,000km circumference.
How mundane.

Axial tilt time.

>>4698033
IT IS HOLLOW. THE PEOPLE WALK ON THE UNDERSIDE OF TEH CRUST! =D

>>4698232
Nope

rolled 77 = 77

>>4698304
Only notable.
Yet again - mundane.

Let's go for day length.

rolled 3, 7, 3, 8, 9, 9, 10 = 49

>>4698307
Be quiet, you tit. You have no idea what you're talking about.

Anyway, 7d10 hours in a day.

>>4698324
Day length: A little over two?

rolled 56 = 56

>>4698324
49 hours to a day. Double an earth day. Nothing too special.

rolled 10, 7, 3, 1, 9, 7, 3, 7, 5, 1 = 53

>>4698329
Time for year length - 6x10d10!

A planet that big spinning that fast would have HUGE centrifugal force! At 1 g at the surface if you walked on the inside of the crust about 5m down you would have enough Gs to kill a person.

Gravity...

rolled 45 = 45

>>4698346
Would you look at that, standard gravity.
Atmosphere!

rolled 48 = 48

>>4698349
Atmosphere's normal.
What about hydrosphere?

rolled 57 = 57

>>4698352
Hydrosphere: also, average.

Temperature!

>>4698338
WELCOME TO FUCKING ALPHA COMPLEX, PRAISE FRIEND COMPUTER

>>4698342
You have it wrong, friend Anonymous. Orbital period is measured in standard days, not local days. For local days, multiply by 24 and divide by the hours in your local day.

rolled 94 = 94

>>4698354
Temperature, average.

Terrain.

>>4698354
You're rolling up Boringville.

Damnit.

Just fudge something already.

Force a 100 or a 1.

rolled 68, 13, 14, 40, 50 = 185

>>4698361
Well, at least we've got a diverse planet here.

rolled 71, 32, 64, 50, 41 = 258

>>4698369
One barren landscape, two continual forests, one set of dormant volcanoes and one landscape of broken rock.
Looks like this shrineworld is a rocky, harsh wasteland. Probably a location host to important battles of the past

Welcome to mundania!

Getting interesting...

rolled 99 = 99

I need a new dice roller, mine is broken and bureaucrats don't know how to fight.

>>4698433
Since it's a mining world, and therefore has mining colonies it'll need to have those colonies somewhere. I can think of three ways it would work:

1)Undersea colonies.
2) Flotilla Cities
3) Volcanoes have led to lots of archipelagos (like Hawaii)

All of these sound interesting to me. But I prefer to build universes in depth then play them in passing.

whats a good rolling program?

>>4698656
There's a program, 52k in size, named DieRoller.exe.

Don't use it, it rolls 42 on a 4d10.

is there one that works?

Now all I need to do is figure out what is a liquid at ~250 degrees...

>>4698773
Microsoft Excel. Put this in:
=+RAND()*(100-1)+1

For other dice, change the 100 to a 10, or whatever. You'll have to go format>cells>number>0 decimal places, or it'll give you a shitload of decimals.

You guys do know that those temperatures are in centigrade, not fahrenheit, right?

0 degrees is where ice freezes. 100 degrees is where water boils.
