The Tessian Star Wars



The Tessian Stars are home to a large number of ONESS worlds, they share a mutual stand off with Euro Fed at its trailing borders, an uneasy truce with Neo-Soviets at its Core ward borders and the CDSU sitting along its spin ward borders.
The situation was tense but so far no open conflict had occurred. That was until in 2235 a massive fleet of Cimexians, from rim ward, fell upon the worlds of the Tessian stars.

A number of worlds quickly fell to the initial assault but ONESS forces managed to slow and stop the 'Bugs' momentum. The Cimexians have shifted to a more defensive stance as ONESS pushes back.

Euro-Fed forces are content to dig in and let ONESS sap the 'bugs' strength.
The CDSU naval activity along the border has increased dramatically, although if it's for defence or an impending attack, intelligence is not sure.
Neo-Soviet activity has increased and a number of patrol and scout groups have been dispatched . . .

Been working on some conversions lately for a project I am starting on, the miniatures are from 1st Corps.

Firstly, from 1st Corps European Alliance suppressor team pack, I chopped this guys head off and replaced it with one from pig iron.
Again, these are from 1st Corps, recon team, I clipped off the gun barrels and replaced them AK barrels from the Assult Group.
I also cut the top of their heads off and managed the make them boonie hats from green stuff.

The last guy from the recon pack also received a boonie hat, his gun had a scope on so I replaced his gun barrel with an RPK barrel also from the Assult Group, so this guy can be a recon sniper.

And some terrain, forgot I had the tree's, think I bought them from EBay about 2 years ago. And now finally used.

Getting deeper . . .

5 stars in sight characters

With some adventure under their belts we wanted to get a bit deeper into the characters and so, sat down to get what they are about.

Rafflesnap

Strives to be in a position of power, he will not intentionally neglect his crew but will seek to better his position. He favours politics over force.

Simon Bates

Is a kind person and will fight to protect what he believes in. He will favour the underdogs and oppressed.

Zia Goffastoff

A skilled hacker who is just trying to get through life, she feels out of her depth but so far has survived.

'Betty

The guy is a liability, gets into trouble quite often, takes on tasks and missions few would dare try and is erratic, but is a skilled fighter and seems to come through fights.

Abraham Creed

Makes a comfortable living as a trader and has a strong belief in his faith.
Although he does keep his past a secret where he was a UNITY employee, and he is a skilled hand to hand fighter but does not reveal where he was trained.
