Big Red Mining Company- Skrim faction

Hello and Welcome back,

The Big Red Mining Company is a faction in the Skirm rulebook by Bill Making Stuff. A summary of the faction background is that they are a space dwarf Mining company that orginated from the world Vermillion which orbits a Red Dwarf star. In addtion to their mining activities they are also good at recovering old technology from junk piles (The world of Gutterlands is one giant junk pile). 

I do wonder if Bill is a fan of the Red Dwarf TV show?

In Skrim factions only need 6 figures a side, but I expanded the numbers up to 10 so these guys can be used in other games such as Stargrave. 

These figures are Chobs Space Dwarves carried by Ramshackle games. 

There are also some metal Squats from Macrocosmn. The guy with the mohawk has had a shotgun added. 

This small guy is a old 40K Squat from way back. 

These three are converted Warhammer Dwarves. I had fun doing these conversions. That triple barreled heavy weapon makes me think of the Tribarrel power guns fitted to the Combat Cars in Hammers Slammers.

The BRMC will also be used as a Dvargs faction in my Wild Galaxy setting. Company scouting teams have arrived on Maddans World to check out the mining opportunities. Wreckage station has also had a team arrive. In addition to the giant ball of ancient technology that is the station, the dead world below offers untold salvage opportunities. Or it will as soon as they atmosphere is balanced. 

Back at company HQ on Vermilion the company is comparing their old space charts against the modern Human ones to find dead or lost worlds. Will they find Mattblackgod’s World? 

Looking at the pile of shame I have collected a few of old 40K squats. I think I will create another Dvark company using another colour as a rival faction. My tortured brain is also thinking about a way to include my old Squat Engineers Guild figures as a possible free lance squat squad to beef up either faction should I decide to use them in a bigger game, such as facing off against Orks. 

Thank you for reading, 

Take care out there.
