Well i have bean considering starting necromunda but it fell short on the gangs i could chose but with the new =I=munda surge i can do whatever i like!.

So i brainstormed i want a dark evil military theme mmm HELGHAST!,but that wouldnt give me much variety wait mutant helghast!

so i did a bit of background
On the small mining planet of helghan the people worked hard to help feed the fires of industry,but after an imperial invasion they where left enslaved forced to mine for the imperium or be brutely executed.After some years the imperium started to test bio weapons on the people of helghan it turned out quite usefull giving them the powers they needed to overthrow their captures.A range of mutations where recorded including telegnetic powers,increased stamina and strengh,and the ability to controle fire.this is just a small sampling of the mutatios that occurd.After they freed themselves they set about starting a new galaxy free from the imperiums tireny,the helghan army was formed,they then sent small groups of helghan specalists to planets all around the imperium to start riots and revolts within the hive worlds where...purging would be less noticable.

Some sort of militant mutants? You might want to check out the mutants by Troll Forged Miniatures.

the helghast (evil people in a game called killzone, a great game ) use an assult rifle with a shotgun fitted to the bottom of it.

But if they are more militant and such you might want to consider including more "subtle" mutations instead of giant tentacles flying around everywhere.

I wouldn't ever use tentacles on mutants anyway, too B-movie. There are a number of great militant looking mutant drawings in the book though that would be a good starting point for inspiration.

Sounds good. I <3 Helghast.

They are the ultimate in evil scary greatcoat soldiers, apart from the Death Korps of Krieg.

The Death Korps have a certain... elegance about them.

Go figure.

"And what is wrong with their life? What on earth is less reprehensible than the life of the Levovs?"
- American Pastoral, Philip Roth

Oh, Death was never enemy of ours!
We laughed at him, we leagued with him, old chum.
No soldier's paid to kick against His powers.
We laughed - knowing that better men would come,
And greater wars: when each proud fighter brags
He wars on Death, for lives; not men, for flags.

Hey guys
just orderd the bits for my pyromancer NOW FOR THE FLUFF!

Lesios was mutated beyond the boundries of physical or mental abnormity,it was so threatening the scientist tried to burn his mutated body,unfortunetly this just made him stronger,his body fused with the fire and he became an elemental,he torched the medlab and freed cell block A,hence starting the revolt.He was unable to controle his fiery gift and so his uniform was made fire resistant,to help him use his ability the wepon smiths made two hand flamers witch linked to his suit they feed upon his pyro and propel it hundreds of meters.

sos for the grammer

Pictures!

Speaking of flamy mutants, you might want to check out the German Feuersoldat by Darkson Designs.

What about some sort of mutated hound which ruleswise could count as a cybermastif.
