Cheers mate.
In the intricate courts of the AdMech the struggle for power never stops, and as history is written by the victors only their names are known outside the vast forgeworlds. But for every victor there are hundreds of adepts loosing the battle for power and only acts as stepping stones on other's path to glory. The techpriests loosing out on glory and power end up as low level priests, assigned to distant locations or chose to leave the forgeworld altogether. After such a battle for power Ahrman Rhadi has been trying to hide his shame on borderline off world planets, where he has been scavenging the ruins of settlements and warzones, making a living finding leftover prometium and selling it to the needy inhabitants and warriors of local clans. Since his fall he has only been known as the Prometium Dealer.
He'll be leading Big Nasty, Half 'n' Half, Jäeger and The Mechanical Dog (and more dodgy characters to come) in the darkness of the future.
Had the idea for this guy some time back when I read a very inspiring thread on the Ammobunker, concerning a librarian searching warzones for any books which had not been destroyed. I really liked the idea of such a retinue - not really combat orientated, but fulfilling a niche task with intense determination. So I figured, what would the everyday people need - fuel. Fuel for vehicles, for cooking and for fighting - good money could be made if one knew how to retrieve, process and store such a product.

Thank you very much.
Ever had a Dremel in your face?....well this unlucky individual has. Unlucky as he might have been, he still answers to the nick Double Tap. Usually is dead on spot.

As mentioned previously I have been working on some rules for skirmishing Inquisimunda style. There has been some interest so I might as well share.
We never played any skirmish games in this setting and the main cause for this compilation of rules was to have a very short set of rules - two pages here actually.
Please bear in mind that the rules were made for some personal gaming and will most likely be easy to exploit, if winning is the sole purpose of your gaming.
The rules are a mixup of rules from Mordheim, Necromunda, Inquisimunda, both original and Yak tribe, and 1 Page Kill team.
So far the only contain the Inquisition and Chaos covens, cause that's what we'll use, we use the warbands from Yak Tribe's Inqusimunda though if you want to have ago at some other ones.
Any comments and suggestions most welcome - also on the name!

Thanks for sharing, I've been intrigued as to what system you used your guys in. Do you ever use them as henchmen in regular 40k?

Well henchmen can be great fun in little games, especially in things like heralds of ruin.

Sneaking into the bell-tower Double Tap could overlook the entire section of the town.
Shortly after a wave of single shots fired rapidly sounded over the battlefield. " In position - you can advance freely" he sniggered over the comm-link.
I really like how those small bits from Anvil Industry makes the rifle look extra gothic. Very simple but with a great effect.

Love the little chap, he's creepy but in a cute way!
I saw your rules on the facebook group. They are very nicely put together, I sadly don't have time to look them over right now, hopefully I can make some time over the holidays.

Double tap looks excellent, and the cloaked character gives me the shivers, superbly built and painted.
