You might have been wondering ' Ashot hasnt updated the EDF for quite a while' as true as this is, its not like i havent been busy... ive been so busy that i have created a whole world, Ruleset , special charachters, campaign, crazy vehicles, a full table of mutileveled scenery and a gang.... i just havent shown you all yet.
well nows the time... my campaign is in full flow at the moment, there are 8 particepents (me included) each with their own individulised and uniquely themed gang along with vehicles .. currently each gangs gang rating is sitting on around 1500/2000.
Well let me tell you all about the campaign itself...
This IS NOT NECROMUNDA... well in a sense... The campaign is set on a planet called CELESTINE, and the game is set on the desert wastes outside of the planets only hive. The basic rules and gang creation are taken from necromunda and also reley heaveliy on the ASH WASTES rules as well as many of the living rulebooks PDF's and our own twists on the rules... all to create a unique game for us all to enjoy.
The name of the campain is also not by accident, not only os it set in the 'borderland' of the main hive, but also takes much influence from the popular game by gearbox BORDERLANDS.... you will quickly see what i mean.
you will notice throughoput my plog that i do not refer to standard necromunda terms, insted using my own to help my own 'fluff' ... i will sometimes say what it was named previously but il proberbly forget anyway.... the reason why is ... this IS NOT NECROMUNDA HIVE, the necromunda gangs dont exist here.
il put up rules and so forth as i venture into this plog, well catch up really on what i have already acheived... each thing i post i will mention who built/painted it as this is a joint effort between friends... i cannot claim to have done it all.
Each player was given the usual 1000 credits and asked to pick a team template and buy and equip members using the template... OUTLAW status has been removed and gangs have been made equal in status to provide balance. All gangs (*except for a few) have had the weapons restrictions removed to help customisation.
the gang templates are as follows
Female gang (escher)
raider gang (goliath)
Techno gang (van sarr)
Cult gang (cawdor)
Criminal gang (delaque)
Miners/Manufacturers gang (orlock)
Nomads (ash wastes nomads)
Fanatics (redemptionists)
Mutants (scavvies)
Tribal Renagades/ Wildmen (ratskin renagades)
Hyperion Enforcers (arbites)
Local defence forces. (PDF)
Non Templated gang. (this gang has not special rules, but gains acsess to an open skill table)
Then each gang has 1000 credits to spend on outfitting vehicles using the ash wastes rules.
in the campain we have.
Kris Marland (me) - BLOOD SISTERS (female gang)
ANDY - RED SKULL SCUMBAGS (non templated Ork gang)
James - Shai-Hulud (techno gang) dark elder based.
Danny - Film actors Guild person ( non template randoms)
Steven - The Jokers (raider gang using mostly Eden minitures)
Tim - The Rogue Traders (Tecno gang with crazy crazy convered imperial minitures)
Dan - Forgefathers (dwarven miner gang)
Jack - Junkyard dogs (tribal renagades tau wildmen)
anyway... enough of this... its about time i shows you some pictures...
il start with the many and rowing list of special charachters in the campaign.
First i want to say that hiring charachters is not done the normal way... insted of you buying a charachter model, converting/painting and rolling stats for just you to use is strictly forbidden in this campaign.... insted i buy convert and paint the model and i roll the stats and that model is freely open for anyone to hire at any time... this has created a list of model based on what we all want and keep it fair...
These are some of the charachters that live on Celestine.
