What about the old school space marine backpacks? Maybe modify the orb-type bits on top to be more of a nozzle?

Honestly a good idea. Too bad I never played space marines and don't have a few. Might end up getting some anvil industries bits/figs to try making some wreckers.
Mad Robot minis has a really nice jump pack.

I was looking at it myself - however 8 wreckers should be enough for most people so two boxes is fine.
Arms Masters is tricky though, as the best options for them are included in the box. I can’t see why you’d need two Arc Hammer guys really and the Combat Shotgun is nice and could pull double duty as either what it is or a regular shotgun.
Alternatively give a third Arms Master a regular shotgun for full WYSIWYG.
Forth one… I dunno, go for the old trick - give him a fancy unique head and a bolter or grenade launcher and maybe a bit of extra kitbashed kit and use him as a leader.
As AM can’t get those it should be obvious that the model isn’t an AM.
If you’re really bothered about bases you can reinforce that idea and put him on a 25 or 28mm one.
Cyber-mastiff… yeah 4 is overkill unless you want a small pack around your leader or spread them out across champs.
For me, I’m making up 3, based on my Ash Wastes style bases and I think that will do for the Orlocks - I can’t see myself needing to aquire more.
One however will go on a standard Necromunda base and may be painted differently/slightly converted but will then be available to my other gangs as a Hacked Cyber-mastiff as in the new Core rulebook.
The Tempestus Aquilons from the new Killteam box all have jetpacks, but that won't be a separate box for a while.
You will get 10 of them once it's out, and they look like they can be used for other stuff too.

Anyway here's the rest of the starting crew. Ahoy me hearties! Time to set sail on the sump.
Captain:
Armsmaster:
The last wrecker of the starting crew. Being a wrecker is dangerous and using plasma doubly so. Lost an arm, a leg and half her face.

Painted a bit more, gotta have some reinforcments ready after all.
Thinking of calling this armsmaster Davey. Seems appropriate doesnt it?

Forgot about this guy. Also painted this bolter ganger.
The campaign has kicked of! It was rough going for the poor Sump Sea Reavers in the first fight, a 1v1v1 against Van Saar and Helot Cultists.
A dead champion and a dead wrecker. A valuable lesson is learned, wreckers might be fast but a heavy stubbers bullets are faster.

That's a great board! A properly crowded, dilapidated underhive!
It was very crowded! Soncka here has supplied most of the terrain, a few of my old terrain pieces in there too.
really liking how unique those gangers look, gotta think of something similar for my squats as they can be kinda samey, maybe some pouches or LoV bits.
Thanks a lot for the kind words, seth. something like the dome skitarii helmets would look cool on the squats maybe. its something like a mix of mining and space helmet gear.
I have read the house of faith book and so Cawdor is going to be next.
Also this random snapshot of a game we had in the campaign recently cos the new mat is sweet.

The thought of facing the template gang with my short range/melee outcasts is making me a little nervous, I must say.
