I'm curious about getting into Necromunda.
I want to run, basically, Chem Dogs.
What would be the advice you could give on this?

I was considering running Orlocks as Chem Dogs. Is there a better option?

I think the aesthetic matches Orlock best. However, goliaths are known for constantly being on the chems , and Escher make them, and Cawdor have the raggedy look often associated with chem dogs, so you can probably take your pick

The modern Van Saar are probably too high tech and clean looking, although chem dogs might fit more with the original aesthetic, for an especially down at heel Van Saar gang

Only Delaque don’t fit at all in my view. Depending on how many female models you have, Escher may also be rather non-standard.

Basically, which do you prefer

What about Venator?
I understand they are more expensive to field but do they have the flexibility?

As I understand it, Venator gangs are just a collection of bounty hunters, for which any models of any kind could be used.

I'm totally cool with that.
So what I put together on Yaktribe. I sometimes learn a system better by making a character/force first. That's just a leader and one other person. I figure the other person is a good basic Chem Dog
