Most definitely. I'm familiar with the Varyngr project and Hellbore has offered to help us in a limited capacity. Given the lack of Squat artwork in the world, I'll take what I can get. Thanks!

amusingly, it also helps build a consistent imagery for Squats / Neo-Squats / Varyngr across multiple fanbases.

Somebody going hunting for info in a few years time will have great difficulty separating the official stuff from the fan.

The Battle for sector XIX - act II.

Turn 1

brood march inside the space bay, too near at the imperial forces, that
move the baneblade tank divisions firing tham and declare a mass engage,
followed by the XXXIV° division on gorgons, and the XXXVII° penal infantry.
The result of the engage was a disaster, with the fall back of a hand of geenestealers
and the brood near the extincion. After this move, another brood move to go around
the imperial forces, near the extreme right of the imperial size, that answer with a mass
march, abandoning the section and regrouping near the core formation, at the center.
The Xeno Titan march and follow the rest of the Tyrant front, but the 2 shadowsword move
for have the better line of sigth for fire to them when they will try to go out.
In the opposite site, another infantry legion march encountering no problem.
The two warhound move near the wall at the center of the battlefield.

Turn 3
initiative: Steel Legion.

The the XXXVII° penal infantry on the cityhouse go on overwatch, when the geenestealer assault
the imperial bike, but loose the engage, for the support of the 2 warhound.
The 2 warhound open first fire against the survived brood of the first turn, reducing them to a firing
biogenetic flesh, and take completely safety this section of battlefield.
The Tyranid forces procede to the space bay, at his limit, when the imperial forces move for recreate
a new line, firing at the dominatrix, laser by laser, battlecannon by battlecannon, reducing it at the end
phases at 1 DC, on fallback. The tunnellers arrive from the deep and engage the 2 shadowsword and the
XXXVII° penal infantry, but them broke the overwatch, and at last, they win the engage annihilating the
tunnellers. The two shadowsword try to move, the first move and fire to the dominatrix, the second fail
to activate and go in fallback. When the hyerodule move and destroy the shadowsowrd on fall back,
and the Planetfall of the tyranid arrive, and impact against the XXXVII° penal infantry The assault was pay
more expensive for the tyranid, but the XXXVII° penal infantry was completely destroyed.
At the end of the turn the dominatrix on fall back decide to move for arrive in a safe position, loosing his 1st
objective. The Tyranid, with their last ambush have take the control of 1 imperial objective, but the imperial
forces have overruned the xeno army, constricting them to retreat in a littlespace, and militarly, have gain
the better results, with a cheap cost in life (the prisoners... sayed the governor, cost nothing) and tank; but
the tyrant had taked the biggest casualties.

<<Is a victory, taked by the tactics! Not with the Gun.
See the tyrant survived, they have a good mass of creatures, but the field is our.
They are retreating... The sector is our. Deliver to the mainframe.
The sector XIX is holded, and occupied. Today, my man had gain the glory, and the freedom.
For the emperor.>>

Alì Pasciò Kalif.
Commander of the penal legion.

OBJECTIVE:
Steel legion: 2 (blitzkrieg, conquer and defend)
Tyranid: 0

But the tyranid forces in their retreat are meeting other forces for go to the assault of an
imperial fortress, a vital point for the Hive city.

...The tyranid retreating from sector XIX, meet another violet wave in their hungry march, inside Hive Cassius.
The dispatch arrive quickly, when the next target appear clear to all the commander on the west site.
Forth AXA is a vital point, where the army arrive to regroup and for send army into the front line.
With the defense of sector XIX, but the fallen of the sector XI and XIV, the tyrant army have find quicky
a way to arrive to the forth. The command center on the bases is hot by the incoming message, that
arrive from everybody. The main forces is holded to the front, and the space wolf are engaged to free the
golden factory on sector MCXII. No one division can meet the forth, and the Commander Paulus Von Pastrel,
on his big tower, have call all the resident forces sending them to the fortress wall.

:500454032:: system wall defence activated.
:500454033:: missile silos open, bioship upon us in orbital line.
:500454034:: defense army to the fortress wall.
:500454035:: I will command my defense from mine Leviathan.
:500454036:: That the God Emperor will protect us.

Following, the core rule designed for the siege scenario.
Our work is in this way composed:

Siege Design principles.
that describe the proportion of the army in play, and the kind of scenario (3 simple samples).
http://www.caputofrancesco.com/download/spaceport1/siegescenery_eng.zip

The fortress rules.
that describe all about benefit, fire, engage and crash the fortress section.
http://www.caputofrancesco.com/download/spaceport1/fortressrule_eng.zip

The Imperial fix defence platform.
A list of Imperial fix defence platform, the rule, cost and how to use.
http://www.caputofrancesco.com/download/spaceport1/fixdefence-eng.zip

The Imperial Landing Vessel.
A new Imperial landing transport vehicles, created for represent a planet deploy landing craft.
http://www.caputofrancesco.com/download/spaceport1/ImperialLandingVessel_eng.zip

The fix defence come from ForgeWorld, except the missilsilo, that is possible to represent in some way.
The Imperial landing vessel, is handmade, the flavour is like the capitol imperial, but some stuff like it in size
can work fine for the rule.
The fortress is created with OOP FW defence scenery line, and the FW Gate in store today.

Enjoy, dear Warlords, and comment with your impression.
Soon, this battle will be played. (and tested) in the defense of fort AXA.

Rock n Roll!

2) build capitol dropship.
3) write fluff explaining the relationship between the dropships and the capitol Imperialis
4) build capitol Imperialis.
