Ahoy, all!
With a new year, I am looking at dropping a new gang into our perpetual campaign, alongside my Pit Slave uprising, and my secondary "outlaw Kroot bounty hunters". Given my penchant for hobbitses of all sorts, having had a ratling sniper in my original Pit Slave gang, back in the late 1990s, and with the recent* plethora of sci-fi-dystopia Ratling miniatures from a host of different companies and sculptors, I was thinking Ratlings.
While the general consensus of discussions on Discord and Reddit appear to have been "arm every one of them identically with bolters," and where the sculpts themselves from almost everybody are armed with either lasguns or autoguns, I am aiming to arrange a mix of all three for the basic weapons, BUT in keeping with the wanting to have flair to a Venator gang, and my penchant for wanting my gangers to be individuals and not a 40K unit, especially given the numbers in a Ratling venators gang, I have been focusing my attention on personal equipment.
Doing so has got me thinking about my favourite odd bits of personal equipment of Rarity 8 or less.
So now I am nosy. What are YOUR favourite bits of kit (not weapons or armour) of rarity 8 or less?
[To ensure fairness, I will mention mine, but not until we are into this discussion.]
What piece of personal equipment do you hope that YOUR venators find in their Fistmas stocking?
[Aha! THAT is why so many gangers are modeled by GW in only one shoe! They have hanged up one stocking by the burn barrel for Fistmas!]
