Soon after their formation, the NLC vanished from the public eye, forming a base out of the way on the Channel Islands and building up their military strength and drawing up plans for their ultimate mission, to reclaim London and rebuild the city in their own image. for many decades, little was seen or heard of the NLC. In recent years, small squads of heavily armed, well equipped NLC soldiers have been seen patrolling the ruined streets of Nu London and small camps have formed on the city's outskirts, along with rumours of a larger fort existing not too far outside Nu London's boundaries. The mission has now truly begun, they have been reclaiming streets and buildings for the Corporation and are more than willing to use lethal force against any Nu Londoners who stand in their way or try to resist. Clashes between NLC kill teams and the city's gangs are frequent and while the Corporation's numbers are few, they are armed to the teeth with powerful weaponary, well protected with advanced combat armour and equipped to survive for days at a time in the hostile ruins of Nu London away from NLC camps. Despite this, it's going to be a long hard slog for the NLC, they're outnumbered deep in hostile territory, have no real support within Nu London's population and even with their military superiority have suffered some demoralising losses in their almost constant skirmishes. Though their full strength is still unknown, the NLC are said to be the biggest, most organised and well equipped organisation in Britain, and have seen off would be challengers like Nottingham's Gee Dubya Imperium. Their main focus is to take over what was once London and turn it into a megacity and centre of business and industry, run and controlled by themselves with undesirables kept firmly out. The NLC's zero tolerance list includes but is not limited to mutants of any kind, gang members and other armed misfits, squatters in prospective NLC land, weirdoes and Northerners (they're big supporters of the old pre war North South division). Shown here are two heavy infantry kill teams, made up of 1st and 2nd edition Warzone Imperial blood berets. I imagine these guys as being like FO3's Enclave squads, operating in small but powerful squads. They like their guns big in the NLC, and the squad leaders use chainswords, one of few ideas they "borrowed" from the defeated Gee Dubya Imperium.

With their expertise in explosives and close quarters fighting among the ruins, they achieve this no matter whether or not these buildings are being used. A squad of dynamite packin' Warzone Blitzers, with guns that look a bit like a cross between assault rifle and shotgun. I've decided that the leader's bigger, rather odd looking gun is some kind of experimantal plasma blaster. Attached to this post: 3.jpg (89.87 KB)

Two officers and self proclaimed knights of the realm, identifiable by their shinier blingin' armour emblems, a captain armed with a big combat shotgun, and two sexy corporate executives representing the business side of the NLC. Excluding the captains, most of the NLC's officers are generally not seen out in the ruins of Nu London alongside the troops. Three more Warzone Imperial troopers from both 1st and 2nd editions, along with babes from Copplestone and Foundry. Attached to this post: 2.jpg (140.44 KB)

I think the fact that I have a couple of long weekends in a long month with two sisters birthdays to buy for and a week until Fallout New Vegas has really helped here. These guys actually had their fluff changed to make them more of an Enclave type invasion force, abandoning my original mental images of a walled off mega city within Nu London, meaning the whole city is a runied concrete stomping ground for gangs and freaks.

The heavily built up concrete terrain of Nu London is not the kindest of landscape for running vehicles through. To address this problem, the NLC have begun using heavily armed military robots in their mission to forcefully reclaim the city, and the Urban Avenger has so far provided a good balance between fire support and mobility though it's legs can be a fatal weakness for prepared or quick thinking gangs (assuming they survive it's heavy machine gun and grenade launchers). A GW plastic Imperial Guard Sentinel, with the fully closed cover and myself deciding it's an ED 209 style battle robot rather than a guy in a walker vehicle. Shaved off the GW eagle from the front, then kicked myself for not using the optional armour plate with the light. Attached to this post: 2.jpg (133.23 KB)
