IDK, our gaming group loves Necromunda... So I am biased (I am also GM for our Necro games so...), the rules release ye was a pain in the ass but they got them sorted (to an extent). The models are ok but it was good enough.

Personally, I think necro was a trial for other specialist games or a game in the future, wait out for that... Was a good trial, showed what the community hated and loved. Same with AT.

While you might be on to something, the questions that GW “asked” were moronic.

“Do you think we should put all the rules in one book?”
“Naaah break it up into 6-7 books, fracture all the rules, piss everyone off and THEN release a compendium of rules so they have to buy the rules again! That’s what people want!”

See warhammer 8th edition for more of these garabage “trials”.


Honestly it didnt piss me off (prob 1 of few), I understood it took time to develop rules but they wanted us to play test, I knew I was buying into a trial system. perspective I suppose

I preferred regular updates I knew where coming than random changes

Think this worked out better than 8th or a system where if had of released since start we would of had 3 updates or more etc etc. I think this worked out better, just people only see initial out lay not overall

Necromunda is awesome... You don't have people to play against... make your own team and play... Idk if different in the states but in AU we get along and have the "mate syndrome". Years ago, I made a table asked some gaming mates to make some miniatures (was for original Hero quest or space hulk or something I think). Went from there, introduced necromunda. We played for like 10 years or something. I moved location and did the same thing. Now have a Necro group/infinity etc. We play different games but is the same format. We all play each others games etc.

Just do that. go to local, find people interested, ask questions, and then play together.


I see that multiple people "I cant find a group", you wont find a group if all you look for is a specialist game... If you play other games and then get them into your game is the schtik...
