\"TheseThe Cetamere system is unusual in that every planet has a large amount of water on the surface – the asteroids are mostly ice comets caught in the star\u2019s gravity and even the moons of the planets are mostly water or ice.<\/em><\/p>\n

The Sphyr were invited to colonise the system to provide a ready workforce for an enterprising group of Corporations working together to exploit the system, given it\u2019s challenges for most citizens of the GCPS.<\/em><\/p>\n

It didn\u2019t take long for the Cetamere Conglomerate to elevate the worker\u2019s off-duty activities to company sponsored events, with the aim of sponsoring a team in the local sector leagues.\"I<\/em><\/p>\n

I intended to have the Asterians all painted up, but got distracted. It\u2019s very difficult to stay focussed on them when I have so many other, easier teams to paint. I\u2019ve done more work with a wet palette on this team to try and practice mixing colours and getting smoother blends. The skin was a base of Calgar Blue mixed with Eshin Grey, highlighted with Dawnstone mixed with Calgar Blue, then a highlight with more Calgar Blue, and a final one with a little Pallid Wych Flesh.\"These<\/p>\n

The armour was Rhinox Hide mixed with Bestigor Flesh. Increasing amounts of Bestigor Flesh for a further three-ish layers. Straight Bestigor Flesh on the gems.<\/p>\n

I wanted a more \u201csandy\u201d colour for the armour but I think I started too dark (or didn\u2019t go for a big enough jump in the middle coat). I\u2019m still practicing with the wet palette and I think I learned a lot from this team, as simple as their colour scheme was.<\/p>\n

\"Also<\/p>\n

I have gotten along well with this team – high movement, slightly better-than-average Dodge, and lots of Strikers (or \u201cHulk insurance\u201d) are nice. They can handle a pretty good passing game and they already start with a card to save me the trouble of buying one. I don\u2019t know exactly what upgrades I would buy in an exhibition match, I don\u2019t know that they need any coach benefits and ranks wouldn\u2019t guarantee them the Skill boost that every Striker wants. Maybe they are a good team to fill up on coaching dice with, to help push for early scores and landslides.<\/p>\n
