Apocrypha Necromunda – Execute a Daring Prison Break with Lady Credo

**beast_gts**

"It’s one thing to target someone with a frag grenade launcher, but a lot harder to aim at a point on the field – so that now gets a -2 penalty to hit. Likewise, charging someone you can’t see puts you at a disadvantage with -1 to hit."

That's going to be controversial in my play group!

New rulebook up for pre-order next weekend

The ultimate Necromunda rulebook is coming. This whopping 336-page hardback book compiles every major aspect of the rules in one gigantic tome, making it your one-stop shop for games of Necromunda – be they set in Zone Mortalis, Sector Mechanicus, or Ash Wastes battlefields. You’ll find the core rules for fighters and vehicles, plus skills, weapons and traits, a combined trading post, the Dominion Campaign, and 11 scenarios in total. It folds in all the FAQs and Errata from previous books, making it the perfect companion for your gangs.

It only mentions the Dominion campaign for example.

How many campaigns are there? Uprising in Dark Uprising, Ash Wastes in Ash Wastes, Law & Misrule in Book of Judgement...

**beast_gts**

Rulebook is £42.50 & Core Tactics £12.50. Looks like Open Hive War & Sleeves are direct only.

Vehicle Cards coming out with no vehicle is final proof they're never getting one.

Or it'll get previewed this week - the Sunday article did say "On Warhammer Community, we’re revealing new miniatures for Necromunda and Legions Imperialis". (I'm not holding my breath...)

The Beastmasters of Necromunda Return With a Big Rat Problem

I'm going to assume FW expensive resin, rather than plastic. I double read the article to make sure I didn't miss it saying which.

The article doesn't say, but resin is a fair bet.

The article does say this:

There are three individual Wasteland Giant Rat sculpts incoming to Necromunda – the multi-headed monstrosity that comes with a Beastmaster, and two more available in a booster pack for gangs who really want to drown their foes in a tide of rodents.

What major faction didn't get a vehicle, besides Delaque? Heck, even the Squats got a vehicle and they're not a major faction, IMNSHO anyway.

None of the main House Gangs - Corpse Grinder Cult? (Oucasts & Redemptionists?)

Apocrypha Necromunda – Dare You Wield the Whispering Weapons?

**beast_gts**

I'm assuming the +6 Damage on "The Rage Unending" is a typo, but should it be 6 or D6?

EDIT: Or is it meant to be the 6+ Ammo roll?

**beast_gts**

I wonder if he's reborn with the bionics, or compelled to replace his fleshy bits with cold metal?

Wow, they are really giving this release the full court press. Two articles in one day?

Yeah, it does feel they're releasing it earlier than they planned and are rushing to catch up.
