I have a feeling this will be my favorite section of the boards, because I enjoy creating alien species who are represented by one or two vessels at a time. I'll post these here, especailly for a couple that I still need to tweak the rules for. I make these rules really intending them for campaign events and thing of that nature, to be random encounters and dogs of war more than full battle fleets.
A big inspiration for me was the League of Non-Aligned Worlds in Babylon 5. A collection of minor races, but banded together if they really needed to stand up to a major power.
I'll post one or two at a tine, I don't want to flood the board all at once.

Of course the Tobari Raiders are at your disposal when running a campaign.

Okay, the aliens are coming. What did we get so far:
1 Tobari (blackhorizon)
2 Dakeshi (Rowanalpha)
3 Annasiads (Rowanalpha)
4 Raanturi (Rowanalpha)
5 Frerrn (Magus)
6 Scythant (blackhorizon)
7 Mas`ata (Rowanalpha)
8 Aenari (Cpt.Leoten)
9 Benkathi (Rowanalpha)
10 Elearith (Magus)
11 The Silencer (Magus)
12 Vegians (Rowanalpha)
The Tobari have been sent to Warp Rift. In my opinion to get the best end result all races should be from the Khareshi Expanse/Nebula.
If we could manage to use 1 race in Warp Rift every time a new WR is set that would be cool.
Also everybody should build their 'own' races vessels. This way people can imagine more what somebody is talking about.
edit:
* two races added
* again two races added

BFG-world it is from now on.
Anyway, a total list for a race will do in 2 pages. The Tobari worked out that way very nice.

This kind of 'splotlight on' article would be really good. Just a couple of vessels from a new race to flesh out the background and provide some interesting stuff for scenarios.
I havent checked with Ray, but personally I would love to see this kind of thing in WR._________________ https://www.cybershadow.ninja - A brief look into my twisted world, including wargames and beyond. https://www.net-armageddon.org - The official NetEA (Epic Armageddon) site and resource.

Yeah, it would be great! 1 Race per issue!
Iain, how are we doing for this issue of WR?
Also, what about a 'WOT' Forum page? (warrant of trade)
Cheers,
RayB

When they are finished fluff and stats wise, The Aenari are at your disposal.
Would love to see them in WR lol, the Khareshi expanse idea seems pretty sound

At some point in the near future, I plan to run a game with a fair sized Imperial fleet against a conglomeration fleet of all the different races. I encourage others to through combined fleets together, and proxy and see how they do. Adding a general "Xeno Alliance" fleet would be an interesting addition to the game.

Cool idea Magus. Curious how it turns out. Adding some vessels to the IN or Tau as reserves is also a nice try.
However I still think mainly they belong in small Privateer encounters, +/- 400pts each side.
With the races now (10) we can go to two races each issue in Warp Rift.
However I wished more races had vessels build. Using minis from other manufacturers as GW is also an idea.

Well, it would be great if the Escorts could be used in Rogue Trader fleets with a SG stamp of approval...
