Pit Slaves

These form the majority of the gang and can vary to one another in many ways. Like the Chief they too are hardened warriors and so all get a free roll on the experience table. They also have the potential to gain another skill as unlike normal gangers they roll 2D6 + 20 for their starting experience, so if they manage to roll an 11+ on the dice then they would go up a level on the table and so get another roll on the experience table. I usually just give all my pit slaves a pit slave close combat weapon and a pistol weapon, either a laspistol, auto pistol or stub gun. There’s not much point in giving them a basic weapon as the extra attack in combat is much more useful and an advanced pistol weapon will rarely be used as they’ll be in combat most of the time. Pit slaves can have a variety of weapons these include;

Rock drill – this is one of the cheapest weapons but is very useful, you can exchange all your hits in combat for a single devastating hit that is useful against tough targets.

Claw – also one of the cheapest weapons, this has the ability to throw opponents that can be useful if fighting on top of high scenery as a model thrown off a large building can suffer a lot of damage.

Shears – the third cheapest weapon these are more useful in gangs which are going to be taking part in a campaign as they can devastate enemy gangs by killing members immediately by snipping there head off (what fun).

Hammer – a very useful weapon when used in conjunction with another pit slave as an enemy must take an initiative test against it and if failed they must halve their weapon skill.

Chainsaw – one of the most expensive pit slave weapons, the chainsaw is able to parry enemy blows usually resulting in you getting more hits on an opponent.

Buzz saw – definitely the most devastating of the weapons and joint most expensive with the chainsaw, this weapon can calve through enemies. Its goods strength of 5 means your usually on 2+ to wound most models.
