FIREFIGHT: The Veer-myn at War

17th Jul 2023

Dan Mapleston



The exact origins of the Veer-myn race are lost to history. They keep no written records of their own and showed no interest in early attempts at diplomacy by the GCPS beyond eating the diplomats. But although the advent of the Corporation and, in particular, the McKinley drive, has certainly increased the dispersal and numbers of the Veer-myn, they were known as a menace to other civilisations long before man took to the stars.

The most obvious asset available to the Veer-myn is numbers. Large colonies may have hundreds of Night Crawlers at their disposal and Stalkers will also quickly make dead men of almost any unit with which they get into combat.

These low-caste soldiers may lack the discipline and training of more professional forces, but, having been part of a gang since the moment of their birth, they are still highly co-ordinated, especially if accompanied by a Malignus. A well-led horde of Veer-myn is a force to be reckoned with.

Veer-Myn Vehicles

From Death Engines to Tunnel Runners, the Veer-Myn use an array of unusual contraptions to bring speed and heavy support to the battlefields of the Warpath Universe. The mighty Tunneller is the lynchpin of Veer-myn mechanised forces, and powerful new variants have recently been sighted...

You can order most of these fantastically ratty vehicles right now from the webstore, and the new Tunneller Variants will be up for pre-order very soon on Wednesday 19th July!

Getting Started

For a cracking starter force plus all the dice, tokens, rules and scenarios you're going to need - you can't go wrong with the Assault on Exham starter set. It's astonishing value, and even comes with a Forge Father army for splitting the set with a friend, or building both yourself! Your rats are going to need some target practise after all...

What if you're only after a formidable force of armoured rats? Well, we've still got you covered: the strike force is the best place for you to start, and you'll just need to add a copy of the Command Protocols book.

The Veer-Myn faction is built around a core of some brilliant multi-pose hard plastic kits. These are easy to build and perfect for letting your hobby imagination run wild. However you get started you're sure to have a great time with this unique, sneaky and formidable faction, spreading terror among the stars!
