The thing I most enjoy about Necromunda is having your very agile, very fast assassin champ get hit by a Hail Mary stubgun shot from a fresh-faced juve while on a staircase then fall down not only that set of stairs, but two more because they failed all of their initiative checks, ending up seriously injured at the bottom level where another juve just walks up to them and does a coup de grace. It's the interactions like this, where the terrain isn't just a movement penalty or increase to armor/reduction to the chances of getting hit, but that where you are, where you place your guys matters. There's wind turbines eager to turn a poor ganger into so much chunky salsa, there's vats of goo filled with god knows what, grabby tentacles reaching out from grates in the floor etc. to watch out for. A well put together Necromunda table not only looks damn cool, but is an active part of the game. The most annoying thing though is the prevalence of plasma weapons. It's annoyingly "meta" but just too good to pass up.

I view NM as something you can run as an almost rpg sort of game - the gangs and members have names and can definitely be fleshed out - if your group has a ref/hivemaster the characters can be involved in adventure hooks/plot points for games so epic that you will talk about them in years to come. Down such a path lies madness. Embrace it. Cheers!

How would you describe your philosophy for building a Munda board? Is every piece separate? Do you have a method of where doors and corridors are? Or do you just kinda get the terrain out and start putting it on the table and let it grow naturally? I’m working on my terrain and building it and painting it is almost less daunting than thinking “we’ll do I glue this floor to this terrain like on the box? Do I keep it separate for customization?”
@MiniatureGameMontage2 жыл бұрын
I think there are pros and cons to both. If you glue pieces it does lose some modularity. It also requires much more room to store. You can, however, add much more detail and depth with grime and rooms and stuff like that. All of my stuff is individual pieces. I store everything in a few boxes and just start putting things on the table. Generally, I try to think of a theme. Is it more of a street fight, will it be more of a mechanicus/industrial area, HAB level, etc. I start placing columns and walls and build up and out. I try to make sure all areas are accessible by two points and place doors where I think they must be used. If you're on Instagram I posted a reel of the board build with a series of pictures. :)

Of all the GW games, I love Necromunda the best, and I have since the very first release in the '90s. In fact I think I've played more games of that than I have of 40k. I have moved away from mainstream 40k but I prefer skirmish-sized games (he says as he opens his third Bolt Action army LOL) and I've been a Goliath player from Day One. If someone were to ask me to recommend one and only one GW game for them to play, Necromunda would be my recommendation without a second thought. The new version is sometimes more complicated than the original, which was based upon 2nd Edition 40k - especially the wound rules can be confusing now. But I think they can be learned as you go,

Obvious question for many people who might be thinking about getting into Necromunda right now is whether Stargrave might be a better fit for them. It's sitting in the same small-skirmish scifi minis campaign game niche, it's the product of the same guy who designed the immensely successful Frostgrave and Rangers of Sjadowdeep fantasy games, and its dedicated minis are far more modular and less expensive than Necromunda's. Plus it's minis-agnostic so if you already own scifi figs (including Necromunda ones) you can almost certainly use them for Stargrave as well. And the rulebook is about 55% of the cost of Necromunda's, and its complete, where the total package for Necro sprawls over more than half a dozen books at the moment with more coming, and many of their new models are sickeningly expensive Forge World stuff. Stargrave's due out in under three weeks. Going to be interesting to see how fast its player base grows, and how expensive this new Necro core box (and the Cawdor book) winds up being.

As an aside I have yet to play a session that didn't have some counts as models. Heck, once the bug bites hard mini conversions and terrain vie for hobby time. Checkout some of the Necromunda galleries out there. It's not a tournament type game being held by GW sponsors at Adepticon. Use whatever minis n terrain you want. Most importantly "Do have some Fun today".

Necromunda really needs AI rules, the community is so small in some areas. And players need a good PDF reader and a 3d printer. The setting is amazing, but GW has fallen so far since the first edition when you just needed the terrain and books from the boxes to play. Now you barely get a few plastic doors and a paper map in the latest box, and it's rules are only for the units in the box.

Im about the narrative, customisation and model making. GW have always possessed the some best lore and IP from back in the 80s/90s, but have degraded that rich resource for profit, for so long, that i hesitate. I dont know if current GW has improved its ways since i broke free all those years back? I think id like it all better if they seperated rules from lore. Maintain free online living rules sets rather than have it all scattered between so many pay walls etc. Im wondering if this new starter pack rulebook will be an up to date revision with all the changes, erratas etc to date. If so, would be a tempting option to start Necromunda if the price is right.

Finally got around to watching this video, and I've certainly found it informative. Love your Necromundan content btw. Things I like about this game. I really like the alternating turn stuff. I've played 40K games where I get tabled in turn 1 or 2 and annihilated by the following turn. Or just play the rest of the game feebly trying to catch-up; and it is not fun. The alternating turn stuff feels really appealing to me, and reminds me a bit of Bolt Action with their system and order dice. (Need to check your Bolt Action content as well) And honestly, I do weep in sorrow we don't have the same level of balance that Bolt Action has with its game. I do think the alternating turn stuff would help balance 40K so much. But that's getting ahead & aside. Don't think I'm going to get into Necromunda any time soon. Missed a chance to try & play a campaign at my local Warhammer store, and they are soon going back to 40K. I'll definitely be doing Aeronautica soon, they have plans to play that after this upcoming 40K campaign. Plus got a mountain of stuff I need to finish painting before I consider getting more models.

Some gangs are direct crossovers. Like genestealers. Overall I would probably say not with some exceptions

Interested in this game. So far the biggest concern is the rules. Having them spread so far abroad means I’m unlikely to have all the relevant rules. So - how do I play with someone else? If they claim I can’t do something or that they get to do something extra, I’ll have no choice but to shrug and go “I guess…”. I love the setting and excuse to make lots of homemade terrain. But rules seem… important?

Unfortunately if you want to know everything it has become somewhat “codexy.” You can get by and have fun with the core rules and your “house of” book but there would be surprises, especially with tactics cards. Yaktribe is a great resource for looking at various information that you may not have access to.

@@MiniatureGameMontage Appreciate the tip. Games Workshop really makes it hard for newbies to confidently dip their toes in their stuff. They have starter packs but knowing that there are rules beyond that which could impact gameplay with others makes it tricky.

Does anyone have an educated guess at how much in £ the new starter set will be? I’m quite tempted to pick it up and start necromunda

@@MiniatureGameMontagethanks, ok that I could manage! Would you recommend any other books etc I’d need or is the rule book enough to begin with?
@MiniatureGameMontage3 жыл бұрын
I played for some time with just the core rules and starter gangs. From what I can see in the starter that would be enough until you want to expand
