Alrighty so after a week of writing some background, finally managed to get Campaign Book Damocles in an initial releasable form. As of now, covers some background for the campaign and the U.N.A. Stats and Rules.
Campaign Book Damocles:
Campaign Book Damocles is a fan community campaign book for Dust Warfare, Allowing players to field AT-43 units in Dust Warfare.
This is following the spirit of other Fan Campaign Books such as DustWar's (and Old Hat's) Campaign Book Headway which lists rules and stats for some traditional WW2 Tanks, and DDI's Dust Warfare Appendix V.1 which lists rules for Dust Studio's Dust 48 units (some of which have by now been released by battlefront with updated rules)
CB Damocles uses the cleaner design format used by Battlefront in Campaign Book Achilles, along with old AT-43 art and photo's.
It lists the rules, stats background for fielding U.N.A. and Therian forces, during a massive UNA offensive to combat the growing menace of the Mysterious Black forces.
Both Forces can be used as Mercenary units to compliant a current Dust Warfare Army or to mix things up, to be fielded as a stand alone force.
Check out the current PDF. inital version (containing background and rules for the UNA forces) here: Campaign Book Damocles V.1.1
So let us know what you think and/pick up on the Dust-AT-43 facebook group
Thanks and Cheers for now

Hi guys, just thought I'd give a bit broader context on this project.
AT-43 is a science fiction tabletop wargame using 28 mm miniature figures and terrain to scale developed and published by the now defunct French company Rackham, which tanked in 2010. Should be noted this is widely claimed to be not because of its product but a less then viable business strategy.
The game itself was widely praised to be smooth and relatively simple, and is felt to be, to a some degree, the Aesthetic predecessor to Dust Tactics and some of the rules for Dust Warfare are also suspiciously similar. The rules are available for download online.
Anyway, since the mini's are no longer being produced and some people might not have full collections or limited forces, it got to a point where it was inevitable that these mini's would be given a set of Fan rules and stats the universe best suited for them.
Thus this project, to allow the Dust community can Adopt the AT-43 orphans.
