But I'm going to have to come up with something for the Mad Padre's Space Kitties on jet bikes and grav tank. That will I think involve some of the Padre's port...

Activation/Turn
Sequence
Use one coloured chit for each fireteam or vehicle. Red one
side, black the other. Or for larger multi sided games use each suit for
different factions. Add a third coloured chit for Random Events.
Drawing the special chit activates a Random
Event Roll, effecting whichever side /colour the next chit is for
Random Events
- 1- Passing craft overhead. Next unit to activate cannot move.
- 2- Meteor strike! 4d6” and scatter dice from center of table. Any team within 3” of impact gets AP 5 attack.
- 3- Poor visibility. Dust/gas/raining methane reduces visibility for shooting range reduced to 12” for next unit
- 4- Crevasse! The last ground vehicle that moved must test. On a 4+ it is stuck in a crack in the surface and can’t move for rest of game.
- 5- A pile of cargo or a building catches fire and explodes. 4” range, AP1 attack
- 6- Cyber-attack Next unit drawn cannot move or shoot.
When chit drawn, team or vehicle can move fast (bounce),
move slow and shoot or shoot with a +1 ROF. Power Armour can move fast and
shoot with half ROF, or they can set an Overwatch and reserve shooting until
an enemy team is in their LOS
Place chit with team/vehicle to show it has activated.
Movement per action
Power Armour d6+3” bounce 2d6+6”
Other Vac Suits d6” bounce 2d6”
Vehicles slow d6” fast d6+6”
Bots/droids d6”
Flyers 24”
Obstacle 1 full move to cross
Take cover/go prone 1 action
Be sensible. Ground vehicles aren't
going to be crashing through rocks mounds or crossing crevasses. That's what
the engineers are for.
Low Gravity
Troops on foot moving fast can bounce over obstacles add +1 to an
enemy spotting roll. But they can also try and spot over any LOS blocking
obstacles.
Power Armoured troops can bounce over obstacles and sight
over LOS blocking terrain (and give the enemy the spotting bonus), OR they can
use their thrusters to stay low while moving fast
Spotting hidden targets
