All Goliaths can roll on a different advance table, if they wish, rather than the standard advance table. This is not without some risk however.
1
The gang member injures himself while pumping too much iron, miss the next senario and roll again on this table.
2
No advance gained, roll again on this table after next senario.
3-4
Roll for a Strength skill.

1-4 +1 Weapon Skill 5-6 +1 Ballistic Skill

1-3 +1 Strength 4-6 +1 Toughness
Ogryns
Being halfway to Ogryns themselves, Goliaths really appreciate the sheer bulk and power of these massive abhumans and so will take every opportunity to provide them with gainful employment. A goliath gang can hire up to 2 Ogryns at a cost of 180 credits each.

An Ogryn initially has 60+d6 experience points and can earn experience points and roll on the advance table, though an Ogryn may only ever take skills from the Combat, Ferocity and Muscle tables.
Psychology
An Ogryn cause fear. It is also quite dumb and so is subject to Stupidity unless a friendly gang member is within 2 inches at the start of its turn.
Miscellaneous
An Ogryn is a massive humanoid and so costs the same as 2 normal humanoids in up keep. It also can always roll to escape pinning, regardless of whether friends are nearby.
Ripper Gun
The ripper gun is a common item that may be purchased at 60 credits. This massive automatic shotgun is capable of ripping the arm off a human user, but that does nothing to deter certain crazed Goliaths.

Special Rules
Any creature of strength 5 or more can fire a Ripper Gun as if it were a basic weapon. For humans though the following rules apply: Only a Character with a strength 4 can use a ripper gun, lesser beings could not even lift it off the ground! It is treated as a special weapon. Move or fire only, and no running is permited either! If a 1 is rolled on the 'to hit' roll then the recoil has inflicted a strength 4 hit on the user. If any serious injuries occur then treat them as a serious arm wound.
Leadership Challenge
When rolling for a Goliath leadership challenge, modify the dice as follows:
Thses rules appaered in Citadel Journal #19 and are property of Games Workshop and I will happily remove them upon request. If you like this idea you might think about a subscription to the CJ.
