The Daemon's Claw

I made a banner for the new campaign. I have had all sorts of fun using different tools to strip out the parts of images I want and then modify and combine them. Here is a quick surveillance drone scan. We have the Techno Barbarian Reapers meeting with the Mad scientists from Universal Medications Incorporated. Both these groups are highly suspicious of outsiders so meeting in a played-out mining town where law enforcement is low (or cheap) seems highly unlikely without a substantial profit margin. The potential for double cross and chaos seems high and only a small push might start an avalanche of violence leaving all factions weaker. The Rogue Scientist is accompanied by 2 Warbots and the Reaper chieftain has a large contingent of warriors as backup. The master supported by a mercenary trooper enhanced with Dalek technology, a warrior linked to the Dalek battle computer and a cyber hacker, scout the edge of town. "Hmm, it looks like we have a powder keg right next to a tinder bo...

We are using the spaceship rules from the Bold Endeavour supplement, what could possibly go wrong? Here is the Master's ship emerging from the Time vortex "The temporal and spatial coordinates are confirmed correct." Wham - special effects noise of a car crash "Alert - we are under attack! Deploy defence shields, evasive manouvres, locate and exterminate enemy vessels!" "Sensors do not detect enemy vessels!" "It looks like we have come out of the vortex into an asteroid storm, except it's not on any of the charts! It's not my fault!" "It looks like we have taken damage in Engineering, I better get down there and make repairs." I made the two piloting rolls but the navigation roll was a catastrophic failure. Richard nearly got pulled into a Black Hole. Alan also encountered the Asteroids and George's ship was almost stretched like pasta by a Dark Star. Ed missed out on all the fun. Three of us took damage to their ships. 

We are starting a new campaign for Stargrave, the theme for this one is Space Western. Crews are supposed to be made from the official plastic models. This is a crew themed from the movie Battle Beyond the Stars. The movie starred "John Boy Walton" as an inexperienced farm boy that wanders around looking for Mercenaries. It also stars "Hannibal Smith" and the "Man from Uncle". These models are made from Stargrave models, Frostgrave models and Cowboy models from Great Escape games (but bought from Northstar so they get in on a technicality. The Bruiser is made from a Tribesman from the Ghost Archipelago range. My gunfighter, inspired by the St Esmin character is made from several models, including a hat from a Hasslefree female Astrix model. This crew is inspired by the Dr Who Episode Frontier in Space. I have the Master, some Ogryn mercenaries, some Dalek Hybrids and some humans. The Master is working to start a war between the humans and Draconians. This ...
