EDIT: This is for the ‘Underhells Campaign’ included in the Hive Secundus Box, not the forthcoming ‘Book of Desolation’. A brief summary of some of the rules:
- Visibility (6”) is in place for all battles
- Starting Crew size for the scenarios is 1 Spyrer + 4-7 Tek Hunters. 1 Territory, if gained, allows +1 starting crew during final couple of games.
- Starting Crew for Malstrain is usually 3-5 Brood Scum. Reinforcements arrive at the end of every end phase; usually 1-4 models + any brood scum already taken out of action.
- No access to Trading Post, and cannot purchase additional equipment from gang list during campaign.
- Can access some archeo-loot (special equipment) in exchange for data crystals extracted during game.
- Can create max 2 weapons and max 2 pieces of wargear (cost less than 25 creds) from gang list as post battle actions, if tek hunters (guntek and Teknomat) are not in convalescence/recovery/dead.
Have opted to eschew armour in favour of as many fighters as possible having the chance to shoot more than 6" and keep brood scum and Tyromites pinned or OOA before they get within range, and numbers to still try and max post-battle actions to build gang (avoid injuries, buy laspacks and armour over 4-5 games ready for finale).
Not worried about lack of killing punch in first few battles - really want the Spyrer to be doing all the killing to maximise suit upgrades.
Comments and suggestions of course welcome.
