I think you have to assume that the floaty chair is just equipped with a variety of useful but short ranged weaponry, rather than the ancient in it hitting people with their stick, and that is reflected in the close combat phase.

the designer's notes article does make me wonder if someone could reasonably replace the various Votann units with the Squat figures from Necromunda to make their army. It would probably be pretty expensive, though.

A nice refresh with distinct profiles for the various abhumans. Lots of potential for homebrew gangs. Glad to see they're getting round to some 'admin' with Necromunda. Here's hoping some of the other gangs (Enforcers and the Cults?) get updated into the 'House of' era, even if it's only via Apocrypha.

Rules for Ironhead Squats are in the Book of the Outlands still, are they? Halls of the Ancients has come out since that.

Beastmen have been part of the gang since their inception.

Sure, you could just pick one of the statlines and say it was a Beastman. But they didn't have any special rules to distinguish them from just plain old humans.

With this they've basically made the Ratling & Beastmen Kill Teams into Necromunda Gangs.

I'd like to see what they can do with some of the Xenos Kill Teams like Eldar Corsairs, or Orks. Kroot Farstalkers?

Neat appendix, cept Ratlings have to follow rules when using weapons, gangers can't use special weapons, and, big and, all but Raus' models are shown with snipers, which ONLY Enforcers can buy and use, PERIOD.

Very cool that Nomads are getting a full gangification like squats did.

Still have fingers crossed for GSC and Helots in the future.

I never understood why they didn't use a doubled Necromunda sprue for a proper chaos cultist release. I mean they could have done it way before No Crosspromotion! became a thing.

Playing mostly Necromunda and Battletech, Malifaux is awesome too!

Really good stuff. The weapon sprue looks a bit sparse, but probably because all those robed sleeves eat up space.

I’m really excited for these. I love the AWN, the Helamites are excellent, all the Forge World models are superb, but I’ve always found the base gang kit to be a bit static. These new guys look like a great balm for that, particularly kitbashing between the two kits.

I don’t think it says but it’s the same format as the other gangs second plastic kits so I think plastic is a safe bet (for once!).

Are we still talking about the Venators?
Why wouldn't Ratlings have to follow rules?
Gangers can be promoted to Specialists (including a free one at founding), who can use special weapons.
Who is Raus? The Ratling kill team? They're more likely to be using long las which are common special weapons on the trading post.

Raus is one of the Ratling twins from Blackstone Fortress.

GW Major event reveals have a rough turn around time of 0-3months or so.
Basically any time from now till around mid-April for the pre-order date.


This is only a rough guide; sometimes its longer, but rarely so and typically its quite clear when something is being previewed that they know will take longer (eg the Old World early previews made it very clear way back when they first started marketing it).

Big pre-order for Necromunda this coming Saturday. Nothing we haven't seen previewed already of course but I was just a bit surprised to see so much coming up on the same day: https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/pgur3wwq/sunday-preview-get-to-grips-wiv-da-gitz/
