No artificial or tech stuff for these guys!

Just something I felt was missing from the Rogue Stars default book. Mostly for fun and so I can use my Kolony Ferals. Any comments?

Great idea!

Maybe trade down Marksman (2) and up to Difficult Target (3)?

Good point, done!

I've also added non-Energy Military ranged weapons to their list since they'll probably at least have the futuristic equivalent of an AK47.

That's a good addition, considering you are simulating "savages" by sci fi standards - guys stuck in the 21st century, right?

Very good. I need to try this faction.

Minor update to the special rule. Now it is not a member but the "squad leader".

I was thinking 40k Ratskins / others on the fringes of society. Also, obviously, Kolony Ferals from Pig Iron. :p

Very good. I need to try this faction.

Please do and get back to me.
