Okay. So. Yea. Right.
I'm wanting to get playing some form of 40k as soon as I
can and that got me to thinking that maybe I should look into
Necromunda since it seems based around smaller
settings. It seems like it might be cheaper and get me
started on conversions and terrain building.
And since the boards only 4'x4' it would take less time and
money to build. I hope.
My main problem is that I know nothing really about the
game. Other then what I've looked through on Dave's and
Bruticus' threads.... The latter of which I've just started..
I don't know what makes a good board for playing. For that
matter I don't even know what makes a good gang. OR what
a gang really is other then a smaller group of mini's...
I've just downloaded the rules form GW online.. And I have
some idea's for what sort of gang I might want or at least
where I'm going to start looking. Any help that people can
offer will make my life easier as I am a dreadfully slow
reader.

Try looking through Games Workshop Specialist and Unsupported Games on Dakka. Lots of neat stuff there. Also, a Google search brought up a lot of cool stuff, like lost and additional rules and Warseer has some cool stuff as well.

i bet that when my son is able to read (estimated time around christmas...) we will start with munda... i think it is the right game for him and me... we are RPG´s through and through...so that should be a good way to play together...
and well... terrain with walkways... lots of nice cover and such thingies...
as for gangs... anything goes... no limit... i´ve read somewhere where you could use your armie models with extra rules as gangs too...dunno where tho...

Necromunda wants dense, multi-layered terrain. Check out dsteingrass' and Skalk's early threads.
Necromunda uses very few models, no more than a dozen per side, but usually less.
Necromunda works great early on, but you need to cap the campaign, because the value of people's gangs can get out of hand, quickly.
Necromunda wants a 4x4 board.
Necromunda (and Mordheim) are fun little skirmish games, and it is fun to personalize your gangers as they grow, gain weapons, etc.

THIS I know we dont play Mordheim because my gang was too good, and I had enough money to bribe most people, and they dont play Munda anymore because they said 1 guy took overpowered lists too much

TBH the same goes for all GW's specialist games, as they don't ever get round to updating them for new editions... BG and Inquisitor are the same unfortunately... and BB hasn't changed in what seems like 15 years

I used to run a Necromunda league, and the way I managed overpowered gangs was set a gang rating cap. Your gang can rate over, but you can only bring the 'capped' value to the table, meaning some models don't play or they limit their special weapons etc.

Huh... That sounds good. Although I think that by the time any gangs that I could get playing would be that overpowered enough it would be time for a new one to be made.

I also allowed gangs to 'dissolve' and rehire a couple of the really brutal guys but the rest of the gang was fresh. I ran it for over a year. Had a lot of challenges but it was pretty awesome, totally worth the effort.

Good (morning, afternoon, evening or goodnight) my fellow dakka's.
So to get me moving in some scene of a direction again on this downpour of a first day of classes I started some work on an idea that I had earlier in the summer.
I thought this was cool because it almost fits into that first contest that we had here hosted by our overseer Dave having to do with lids.
I started with some of these.
Then cut these.
And put it together.
