Freeman's farm

 Following after Bennington the outnumbered soldiers of Burgoyne must capture the heights of bemis
 First into the fray are the grenadiers
 That rout a unit of miltia
 Burnswickers and regulars are menacing the rebel right

 The grenadiers follow up with their charge by killing Arnold
 Then charging the miltia in the rear
 That surprisingly pushes them back
 Another unit of minutemen scatters the elite redcoats
 In bemis a lively crossfire has erupted between germans and continentals
 The americans charge
 And are pushed back
 Finally a volley of merc fire routs them
And so in the last turn the americans fail their morale roll and the brits win in extremis

Infanterie de ligne

 Some more badly glazed french, so awesome when your painstakingly painted minis get ruined by vallejo ink

The chaos fane

Proctor Dread, personal report
My lord Marshal
We've moved against the heart of the chaotic corruption in Helwar's Graveyard, a blasphemous temple in a mine near Ashwatch
 We surprised the heretics out of their transports and wasted no time in pouncing on them
 We came out o the horizon guns blazing
 Our melta cannons made short work of the first rank, amongst them a criminal smuggler
 Brainleaf zombies soon rushed to the din of battle, thankfully far from the action
 Regretfully the guild transport lost a wheel and the crew was thrown out, they where shaken but otherwise unhurt
 Anderson smashed her runner into the enemy car but they swerved aside
 More zombies were shuffling in
 Subjugator Abel was first into the enemy conveyor
 Engaging their driver, that let go of the wheel, crashing the vehicle into a pipe
 From my own runner I dispatched the foe with my trusty shotgun
Finally the creeps couldn't stomach it and they tailed
With their base in our hands creeps'll soon scatter to the winds

Imperial french

 New year's resolution was to finally paint the spanish and french armies that had been languishing for years in the cupboard, thanks to corona lockdown now I have no excuse to do them, besides as internet wisdom put it: it's not a pile of shame but a mound of opportunity!
 There is a base of light infantry voltigeurs to act as skirmishers
I'm a bit unhappy with the bases so I'll add brown sand to cover the bases

Mando

 Mando is a legendary bounty hunter, known all over Necromunda for his exploits, when a mission seemed impossible or no one could do it Mando pulled through. He is a member of the mandalian venator family, which instead to ties of blood adheres to a creed with many tenents amongst them never to take off their helemets in the presence of strangers. His main weapon is a sniper rifle, with grenades, knife and a stub gun as seconds togeteher with hand flamer and grapnel launcher integrated in the vambraces of his carapace armour.
 Recently finished watching the Mandalorian and decided to make a litte tribute, the look is based on episode 2, with beskar helmet an pauldron plus chipped red armour


Boy that's a lotta bounty hunters!

Reactorville

Personal report, Proctor Dread
My lord marshal
After cleansing the heretic nest at lungsbane I got intel from a nark that the heretics planned to attack our power tap in reactorville so I gathered what officers where available to blunt their assault
 In the encampent outside the wreck there was a recovered car that the eschers wanted back
 Our sentinels patrolled the outskirts but some perps slipped by
 Until the alarm was sounded by a guildsman
 Who payed with his life
 I launched my ash runner forwards, blowing away the leader of the recidivists

 The creeps where too dumb to go straight for the vehicle and ran over our allies from the guild
 I saw a criminal before me and rammed her withut doubt
 A creep tried to make a run for it but the treads of justice put and end to her criminal endeavours
 The guilder herself took down hive trash
 I came out from the runner blazing away and had to take cover from incoming fire
 Ash 7 rammed and shot the escher car, leaving it badly mauled
 Fire from the other enforcers soon blew up the ash carrier
 The criminal trash where blown off the car and crawled around in flames
 Subjugator Abel, a recent recruit, smashed heads with his power maul
 Creeps soon tailed it
The season of fire is coming in and heretic activity is on the rise, the trash will try to take advantage of the upheaval to overturn the rule of law but we will stand firm against them
