It's been a while since I've been able to pursue my Five Parsecs campaign- it's back! A recap of the crew of the Innominate:

Gallius' rag-tag crew have had many escapades both on- and off-world, but are back on Necromunda and have attracted undue interest from many parties. After a savage beating from xenos-tainted insurgents, Gallius hires an underhiver to guide the unwounded back to their ship. Stazie Rendir takes them through the refineries, but the thuggish Forge Guards want to be paid their dues...

Stazie Rendir, underhive guide.

The crew take advantage of their opponent's unsubtle tactics.

Chugger brutally takes down another!

The way seems clear again...

Point-blank blasting on the right.

Chugger clears the Forge Guards on the left.

Corvin takes out a charging Goliath.

The last enemy is defeated.

The crew, although outnumbered, fought their way through the refinery. The fearsome Goliaths abandoned tactics after dosing up on combat stimms, and were brutally gunned down. Gallius, feeling short-staffed, offers Stazie a position in the team, which she accepts. Roma takes her boss aside to let him know that there is a rebellious undercurrent in the crew, and there has been talk of replacing him as Captain...
