No problem at all, I still find it difficult to make my scratch-builds detailed enough.

I find the best thing to do is save whatever random junk you can from around the house. You never know when that one piece is just perfect!!

agreed. I'm saving up on empty coca cola cans just to make this kind of terrain. And I definably got to open my junk box once (but first I have to find it. )

Damn! i dont check up on this for a couple of days, and...this.

First of all, I love your kroot paint scheme, so tribal, so neat.....*mouth salivates*

Your terrain in beautiful, and lavished with some pretty awesome propoganda. About that, is that a world war 1/2 poster with carapace armour painted on?

The scavvies look promising, but their arms and heads seem a whee bit too big.

The Random ganger that you said you werent sure what to do with him could easily count as a random scummer for example. Loving this thread!

Ok with your camera try taking the pictures a little further back and then zoom in on the model. Depending on the camera you may also be able to change the focus point. Or, if you're feeling brave use a tripod, live view and manually focus like I do. My photos are still a work in progress though and by no means perfect.

Maybe it is the pure blood in me but I am a little anti non codex gangs. One of the reasons being Fluff - how do you explain a Kroot gang getting to Necroblunda. I am also worried that Home-brew gangs become OP'd quickly through rule creation. I guess the best way of working this out would be to set up a gang and play test them against another new gang rather than introducing them halfway through.

A suggestion for a possible rule, if in H2H and the Kroot put a model OOA, make a d6 roll on a 6 or 1 they feed. and can't do anything for a turn, BUT don't penalise the other gang more than making a roll on the table (insta-kills are harsh) and everyone deserves a turn on the OOA table. Re-roll next turn and so on...

I played Spyers by had a lot more fun playing Cawdor. The Spyers were at first viewed as OP'd but as soon as they incurred much in the way of disabilities quickly suffered.

Your terrain is fab, I love the rust effect, if i were to say anything though it could do with more levles, ladders onto the roofs of buildings and walkways between buildings roofs. (think Fallout 3 and Megaton if you've played it) There's nothing more fun than watching that annoying heavy fall 9 inches after he's knocked off the top having spent the whole game dominating.

With using transports I think there are some rules in CA, or certainly were when there was the Fanatic site. (may still be about online somewhere!)

As to the rules, as long you have fun that is the most important thing, sometimes we'd flex the rules a little cos it'd make for a more interesting game.

Ignore everything I have said if you wish, the bottom line is it is your hobby, have fun with it!

Sorry for the wordy reply, I love necromunda having played it since it first came out.

Wow that is amazing. the buildings are awesome.

I have a reputation, Modile, a reputation as a fair, honest man who treats his soldiers well and supports them in the face of darkness. Potentially, that reputation makes me soft. It seems I understand failure and forgive it. Some, like Kowle, believe me to be a weak commissar, not prepared to take the action my rank demands. Not prepared to enforce field discipline where I see it failing. I am an Imperial commissar. I will enflame the weak, support the wavering, guide the lost. I will be all things to all men who need me. But I will also punish without hesitation the weak, the incompetent, and the treasonous.
I am a Commissar. I am empowered to deliver justice wherever I see it lacking. I am empowered to punish cowardice. I am granted the gift of total authority to judge, in the name of the Emperor, on the field of combat.

Anthony D: well the kroot gang project is put off for a while, I'll take them up again when I feel brave enough.
For rules for vehicles, which chapter approved is that? I have the one from 2004, but I'll have to take a look in that book 1st. and no need to apologize for the wordy replies. that kind of replies make this thread very good. and thanks for the link.

thanks for the kind words everyone.

I've finished painting Boris (the heavy with the flamer) I will post a picture when I found the camera (I forgot where I put it)

Nice clear pics! now put them on a peice of white paper and and bend it up behind the model (lean it against something). By having nothing else in the pic the camera is able to focus on the model better.

I'm liking your terrain as well, good terrain really makes a narrative game memorable IMO
