[rules question] Attunements for Soldiers

xerxes · 08-17-2015, 06:58 PM

I have the hard bound black cover version of the core book. This Saturday I'll start GMing my first game of In Nomine. I've got lots of experience in other systems.

The book indicates that Soldiers can take attunements. Is that only Servitor attunements of the Archangel that is the boss of their Angel or does that also include the Choir attunements?

My copy does not specifically say one way or the other as far as I've seen.

Nonspecific Choir Attunements cost 5 points and a good story reason, along with a Force from the appropriate Choir. Detailed in the CPG, and...I can't remember if there's anywhere else.

I think.

Per CPG, Soldiers of God that serve an Archangel can gain that Archangel's Servitor Attunements. They can be granted Servitor Attunements by another AA, but this is rare except in the case of Laurence (who considers them all part of the Holy Army).

Humans can't get a Choir Attunement unless an angel voluntarily gives the mortal one of their own Forces ... and even then, the human can only get the attunements of that particular Choir.

Yes.

What he said

by default they can only take Servitor attunements.

An angel has to WILLINGLY give up a force for them to gain a choir attunement.

this gives them just enough celestial nature

Oh note.

more soldiers of hell have band attunements, ironicly.

as Many princes, concious of resource preservation, recycle the forces of executed minions, into empowering soldiers that it seems worthwhile to do so.

Additionally soldiers of hell are much more adept at hiding in plain sight and getting away slashing the tires of an angels car or vandalizing a church without raising alarms across the city.
