Apologies for the lack of updates and the poor lighting in the photo, 3 more for the Scav faction (4 if you count the bondage bear), two regular gangers and a waitress.

I'll been digging through my painted boxes and should have a new faction to post soon, stay tuned!

The Gray Fox Mercenary Band

The Gray Fox Unit is made up of various veterans from World War IV, under the command of Major Corben. The unit is generally classed as an illegal combat force and as a reult have an active bounty on thier head's forcing them to remain out of NewPort City, this however does not stop the MegaCorps or even the NewPort Police from hiring them from time to time.
The unit operates mostly in the uncivilised wasteland that seperates NewPort from its closest neighbours, often patroling the highways that are still used by civilian traffic or hunting down Tech Scavs looting the abandoned landscape.
As a result of thier enviroment, the Unit has develped expert steatlh skills and ambush techniques, often the first and last thing an enemy hears is the crackling laser and ion fire.

He reminds me a little of Hulk Hogan  :o  lol  Which reminds me - I really need to get a mini Mr T.

Is this a skirmish game you're playing? With the huge amount of lovely figures you've painted it's going to be the biggest skirmish in history  lol

Thanks fella's



Bio Booster Armor 1

While experimenting on various forms of Power Armor, the Zeon Corporation developed a form of organic armor they dubbed Bio Booster Armor. Unlike regular Power Armor the Booster links directly with its pilot, or host, bonding with him or her. During field tests it was found that after a matter of weeks the pilot was absorbed by the suit, Zeon, undetered, went forward and continued trials, ultimately killing 25 pilots. Before pilot 26 could be installed, the suit some how escaped (or was stolen) into the lower levels of NewPort City. All attempts to capture the suit have failed.

Nice suit. Great idea. The though that a suit of power armour running about on it's own cracks me up!

NewPort News

The NewPort News is part of the NP Network, and handles current affairs within the city, and the few surronding settlements that are under NewPort control. The media is heavily controlled by the MegaCorps and as a result almost all the news coverage is censored.
In recent years the NewPort News has become extremely popular for its nightly "Gang Watch" program, which showcases various gangs blowing the crap out of each other. This type of news coverage has become rather dangerous however, and its not uncommon for the crew to be armed.

Trixie

The uncivilised area's surronding NewPort City are populated by many types of people, some good, most others are just bad news however. One of these bad news characters is a girl by the name of Trixie, her m.o. seems to be to bind herself to rubble and act as a damsel in distress, only when her prey is close does she strike, either with a concealed weapon, or with a group of hired thugs. Though these tactics have worked well in the past, more and more travelers are getting wise to her, and she knows its only a matter of time before she will have to devise a new ambush stratergy.
