Rogue Planet: Gamey Thansqueek

Out of the darkness a pair of red eyes gleamed, a silhouette of a short wiry skaven body, pale snout and foot long whiskers occasionally in view. His small rodent frame squeezed between building drywalls, going where most could not.

The young grey seer (28- grey seers live longer than other skaven for a range of reasons) peeked out at the Dark District. Involved in clan Pestilens and Skyre crafting and favouring hiring clan Eshin troops, Thansqueek's mind tumbled with possibilities. "Mine, Mine, mine, mine" he excitedly squeaked. Now, to find some warpstone and bring about the crashing doom of all flesh-things.

Admiring of clan eshin, his pack mother being a gutter-runner, Thansqueek is vicious with a blade in close. (he adds +1 to all CQ tests until his personal energy pool runs out, or team energy when there is no personal pool being used)

His theft of warpstone from witless humans and construction of gothic arcane devices for ratkin in has amassed him the wealth of a Stormvermin's Tribute. He shows a ruthless aggressiveness referred to by the vermin-tide as "gamey"- which is as about as respectful as skaven can be of bravery. The skaven equate brave with stupid.

Thanqueek favours high quality Eshin troops such as Deathmasters, any scummy clan rats to fire his warpstone weapons and dreams of a Screaming Bell induced Ratocalypse

Act 1

Amongst the scoured ruins of the Hive Primaris the acolytes find more than one foe. It appears mechanicus, xenos and a strange syndicate are involved in the disruption in this sector.

Prelude

Two groups of Acolytes, One World,

On the world of Illias two teams of acolytes with widely differing composition are sent by Inquisitor to investigate the death of previous Inquisitorial forces.
They discover not a thriving hive of 400 billion but decay and loss. But what is it's source?

Character Details

A post to describe where the characters came from, what their motivations are

Characters Group 1, Bring Minis

So luke's character is running round in some sort of aquatic-comfortable
gear and is sneaky..

but maybe going for this

Matt has got some tallarn-inquisitor // mad hunter thing going on- putting him somewhere between

And

Troy's Mechanicus has these Grievous legs, as in the general, but i reckon it's closer to a certain necron

but at the moment might be more

Ben is rocking sister's carapace and hand flamer with a metal habit... couldn't find that exactly

A few came close, but not quite

Finally I reckon Grant is going for 

but all I got is

In short, if you guys have minis you want to use as characters, feel free to bring them along, I have some approximate stand-ins...

Notes on a Rogue Planet

Initial impressions here to sort and record them.

Linear terrain should be something you can fight through or over. Pipe, wire fence, shack wall.

Board should consist of a network of patches of terrain, probably 3 or 4 deep in any axis.

Must target closest unit for charge or shooting. I get why you do that from an " introduce tactics " point of view, not sure about it as a game mechanic. I would just apply a penalty to hit if it's not the closest.

Ok, despite the advert there is book-keeping (action points, energy) and measuring (FX). But not much.

Collisions was a bit, cumbersome. A 3 way example would have been good.
