Trokair Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 My local group has had some talk about possibly maybe perhaps having a Necromunda campaign later this year. My own experience is limited, and I am not up to speed with the rules. I have blundered my way through two campaigns that sputtered out (thanks Covid) so maybe eight or nine games total (not counting Necromunda 1 way way back), one with Van Saar and the other with Venator (to make a Kroot list, with two house rules to make it more Kroot). I started an Ash Waste Nomad conversion gnag (using orlock rules) around the same time and before they got official rules/models last year, so that has rather taken the sail out of that, for now. So now I am thinking of trying the other new gang, the unsquated space dwarf. Any tips, pointers or advice would be welcome. Also for reasons that are beyond me I have misplaced one of the squat sprues (maybe it’s with the Votan stuff), so at the moment I have only 4 bodies + the FW mini mecha, is that even a viable gang (playable would be a bonus on top of that).

Castigator Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 I haven't played squats and have no idea about them but I just want to add my support and say good luck in your endeavour.....P.S. don't forget to keep us apprised of how it's going Trokair 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/377744-venturing-out-of-the-mine-%E2%80%93-squat-gang/#findComment-5915309 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trokair Posted March 3, 2023 Author Share Posted March 3, 2023 The Ironheart Kin all built for now. Decided not to give the leader a power fist as it plus hammer felt redundant, and the hammer just looked better than the fist. The rest are one Champion with Heavy Stubber, one Champion/Ganger with Boltgun, two Gangers with Autoguns and a Juve with a pistol. I did find the other sprue, so thats six built and two bodies I’ll safe for extra gangers later in the campaign. I like how they all look without their backpacks, so leaving them off for now, can always add them later if needed. On the Vartijan I have also left it so that I can swap the Flamer and Heavy Bolter as needed.

Castigator Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 I didn't realise the Vartijan was that big, looking good Trokair Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/377744-venturing-out-of-the-mine-%E2%80%93-squat-gang/#findComment-5916066 Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is very simmilar to the actual Ambot model in terms of dimensions, if I add a second one I'll probably convert an Ambot.

Akrim Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 That is a cool gang man, get some some paint on those gangers. Heavy stubbers can put in the work in some situations, I just think they cost a tad high.
