That 'later in the year' part took me a bit by surprise.

I figured the new AT book, the AI expansion, the new Khorne BB team and this kit/new book/new Gang would be all dealt with in a kind of 'Specialist Omnibus' week of releases, perhaps next weekend.

Guess not.


Yeah, I thought that odd. Specialist Games have been pretty dry of releases for a while and with the amount of articles this week, I'd have expected a pre-order within the next week or so.


The roadmap just said Q4, didn't it? I took that to mean something like November since I had the impression that's when Necromunda tends to get its Q4 release. No idea if that's actually accurate, though.

The previous House Of books came out quite quickly following this level of preview. Not immediately like, but certainly within four weeks.

Later in the year seems more nebulous.

Q4 starts a week today. However, looking at this, we still have Van Saar and Cawdor Weapon upgrades to come.

I wonder if those somewhat unevenly distributed points on the roadmap timeline are meant to point to a rough date in the respective quarter. That would put the new gang more in December than anything. Anyone remember if House of Shadow was released in July?

That's overly optimistic of you. The true pessimist believes that the price might be set so high that it would indisputably not feel good to pay it, but not quite high enough to actually stop wanting the thing. You'd be agonizing over it endlessly.

I am an optimist, I choose to believe the price will be set so outrageously high it will motivate someone to resculpt the whole lot for 3d printing!

I'm down but I hope(dangerous) that it's like the other small SG terrain kits so $35ish msrp.

To be fair, those weapons already have rules in Necromunda, so they're not "new"... kinda... so really this is just completing the "no model" part of no model/no rules.

Wasn't that (at least to a degree) an in universe article there with the ads for the different stuff? I very much hope Necromunda fluff hasn't gone down the drain so far that it's no problem now to openly advertise xenos weapons...

But they aren’t xeno weapons. They’re archaeotech and custom jobs. Nothing illegal about that, Officer! I even have the permits here, he says, holding out a high-value credit transfer chit…

Heh.

But they are literally called "Xenos Weapons" in the book. You can actually get:

1. Kroot Long Rifle
2. Rak'gol Razor Gun
3. Sling Gun
4. Hrud Fusil
5. Necrotic Beamer (from those lovely Slaugth fellows!)
6. Neural Flayer
7. Yu'vath Puzzle Box
8. Demiurg Energy Drill
9. Xenarch Death-Arc (an old staple!)
10. Mindflect Shard (a type of grenade)

And that's before you get to the Chaos corrupted weaponry!

I wonder what ever happened to the van saar/cawdor weapons. The roadmap does indeed point to them coming out before the new outcast gang and book. I had honestly expected them to be previewed at gencon.

They didn't preview the others, as far as I can recall. They just go up for announcement in the "Next Week's Preorders" bit.

I don't remember the previous packs got any fanfare or big promotion, they just shown up during the sunday preview.

I'm looking forward to van saar upgrades since months now. Couldn't care less about the new faction but I desperately want those weapons .

Considering we saw the Escher go from resin to plastic it might be all weapon packs from now are going to be plastic and that that choice was made late in the year so now the new Van Saar are delayed to get made into plastic?

Hell, I would be happy with a "right arm with a brute cleaver" pack. Such a great set of models and such a stupid, stupid, stupid selection of options on the sprue. One freaking right arm with a 'mundane' melee weapon, GW. ONE.
