Necromunda returns!

[cypheon]

So necromunda is being released with all new plastic kits. Starting with escher and goliath.

I am definitely buying one or three of the goliath kits for neophyte fun.

Yes, i know, it will probably just be SW:A with gangers, but that is still hatd to pass up.

Necromunda is going to be a completely separate game from SW:A. They've gotten that question a million times on FB.

You do realise swa was basically the last edition of necromunda, with the word "gang" replaced with "kill team", right?

I was not saying they would be 100% compatible, but they will, ultimately, play very similarly.

Maybe they will play quite similar, but they couldn't stress enough that the 2 games are completely unrelated, so I'm not so sure. Just relaying what they said on the FB post.

Lady Atia's blog is mentioning usage of action points to activate gangers (different actions will have different costs). Sounds different enough.

I'll probably give this a go if the models are nice - not sold on the first ones I've seen unfortunately. I never played Necromunda, but did play a bit of Gorkamorka as a kid. It's nice to have a playable game with substantially less financial and painting time investment than 40k. It will be interesting to see how the models' experience mechanic works and whether it's still fun when the two sides are outmatched.

I used to play this so much, with a set of homebrew rules for a Genestealer Cult. I might have to get those out again
