NECROMUNDA CORE BOOK OVERVIEW - Let's Start Playing Necromunda! Gang Tactics Cards Too

[@GarredHATES]

I have no idea how this game is played. can't wait for your How To videos about it!

[@thomasshea308]

it runs like warhammer fourth edition if, I had a camera and was youtube savvy I would make you a video on how to play for you

[@ash_durant6071]

This book looks amazing can not wait for it to arrive.

[@Dark_Templar28]

Lucky dog you got one.

[@Dark_Templar28]

Well I went to my local Warhammer store today and was able to get one. 😎

[@ScreamingTc]

My biggest concern is how long that spine is going to hold up to repeat use, given the size of the book and the sheer amount of rules involved.

[@BB-pn2qv]

Good point… this book is a heeeeavy.

[@tabletopskirmishgames]

That is a good point!

[@WeOnlyEatSoup]

Picking up my copy in 9hrs lol can't wait

[@josephgarcia9076]

Lee always getting freaked out about the babies 😂😂😂

[@tabletopskirmishgames]

🤣 I was horrified to see the new Necromunda set has a particularly creepy baby too lol

[@DamBrooks]

I haven’t played this game since the 90s when it first came out but as that was some 30 odd years ago I might be interested in getting back into it so long as I can take my unpainted Orc kill team and make them into a gang for the Underhive 😊 I will check with my local club especially since I am no longer in the Blood Bowl league anymore…

[@Steve_Keen]

I recently learned that Sleeve Kings makes a 75mm x 110mm sleeve that fits the Necromunda cards *BETTER* than these ones they were selling. I need to see about getting some. Also while this new Core Rule book is great, and does consolidate a lot of things, all the other books still have things that aren't covered. For example the psychic powers and rules in the rule book work, but it's all greatly expanded on in Book of the Outcasts. I love all my Necromunda books, I'm not even playing the game, just collecting, and love all the lore and how they expand the game.

[@tabletopskirmishgames]

Thanks for this, I've been looking today and couldn't find any. Good timing!

[@Ageofcontrast]

Oh my lord you got into necromunda. I can't actually believe it. I've been telling you for years haha

[@tabletopskirmishgames]

I got there in the end 🤣 I was holding off, I knew I'd like it but had too many games going on previously. Now ready for lots of Necromunda action!

[@LeeRilude]

no idea how it plays, but took a look at a few gang and they look really fun to paint. where did you get your battle mat from in the video?

[@tabletopskirmishgames]

The gangs are great but I like that the game is perfect for using proxies from other game systems. I use Infinity models for my Venator gang and they work really well. The mat is from Warfactor, I've featured it a bunch in other videos and can highly recommend it. Brilliant for war-games but also for DnD and other RPGs. Here's a link to it: warzonestudio.com/los-duas-modern-city

[@LeeRilude]

@@tabletopskirmishgames wow perfect, than you. I'll check out Infinity and Warfactor x

[@BB-pn2qv]

Really wanted to see the gang cards! Thanks

[@tabletopskirmishgames]

Awesome, I've just uploaded the Open Hive War card deck video too

[@timothsurburg6460]

Would you suggest this book for a brand new player who’s bought the Ash Wastes box?

[@tabletopskirmishgames]

I haven't bought any other books for Necromunda prior to this, and haven't seen the Ash Wastes book, so it's difficult to say. I like having all the updated rules in one place, though, and it's likely to be the go to book for a few years if the previous updates are anything to go by. If you want to play in the Underhives, try out different campaigns, and want the core rules all in one place, then this is a great book that will make starting much easier.

[@stevenprimrose8677]

I just got my core book today and I all ready know what could be the next gang to come out if you read this go to page number 331 it shows a pit fighter which could be next ???

[@tabletopskirmishgames]

Oh nice!

[@anthonywaggett9317]

The previous books all used the mottled pattern as a background to the text same as the PDF's and this did make it difficult to read especially in low light or if you didn't have the best eyesight. Getting rid of this in this edition is worth the money alone. I did manage to order a copy from a local store but I have a horrible feeling I may not get one due to GW's habit o short changing the stores on pre-orders. Fingers crossed.

[@dannythompson9642]

Hello mate hope your good I was wondering dose that book have rules that u can use to build your own gangs from scratch or do u have to stick with the Gangs they have great video mate 👍👍

[@tabletopskirmishgames]

To make your own gangs from scratch you want to look at Venators. The info for them is in the 'Book of Peril'. You do still need other books for the gangs unfortunately. They may be available as PDFs online but I can't recommend looking for those at all 😉

[@dannythompson9642]

Thank you 👍👍

[@earnestwanderer2471]

You shouldn’t get overwhelmed. It’s like an RPG. If you stack up all the D&D 5th ed books, it would be, what, 3 to 5 times as much info.

[@tabletopskirmishgames]

Good point!

[@ndubzzz1]

Love the concept of Necromunda, enjoying playing but switching between books confuses the heck out of everything. Just painted my scenery , secong best game behind Warcry for me

[@tabletopskirmishgames]

I've found it really tricky to get playing, and same as you, confused big time going through all the books. So happy this new book is out, still have to go to the gang books, but this is a good move.

[@BB-pn2qv]

These cards should have just been playing card size, they didn’t even make the text take up the empty space, just requires a weird size set of sleeves

[@tabletopskirmishgames]

Yeah I can't seem to find the card sleeves to fit now.

[@Cargo19]

Next Station! How To Play Necromunda😂

[@tabletopskirmishgames]

Let's go!

[@earnestwanderer2471]

Hopefully it will come back in stock before the Critical Ops cards. These stock outs are REALLY getting old. What’s the excuse now? Production of the overpriced Warcry starter box consuming all available capacity?

[@tabletopskirmishgames]

Yeah I don't get it. I'm being VERY selective with what I buy from GW now.
