Glad I wasn't the only one to think of the Brute Chopper from Halo when I saw that Goliath vehicle. Actually with that rear track it looks almost like a Chopper mated with a snowmobile or something.

For me, the design (with front tire) is almost perfect.
A snow mobile converted to fit brutal fighting in ash desert conditions

As for acceleration/speed with a tracked vehicle:
”How fast can a snowmobile accelerate? The acceleration of stock snowmobiles is about 4-6 seconds in a 0-60 run. Special drag snowmobiles accelerate much faster of course. The world record for 0-60mph is around 1 second!”

Speaking of Orks. With focus being put on the Ash Wastes, do y'all see an Ork gang making an appearance in the future?

I know *my orks* will be making an appearance in the future of the Ash Wastes... To many excellent vehicles not to...

The Gorvos Crime Syndicate Enter the Underhive With Inimitable Style… and Lots of Gunk Bombs

Nice enough models, glad to see some of the earlier books are still getting plenty of attention. The paintjob on Vunder's face could have been a bit more photogenic but you can't have everything.

Considering many snow mobiles can achieve speeds of 100 mph, you may be right... j/k

And if there was any doubt, we're now definitely looking at a year or more of bike and buggies, whatever they can squeeze on a half sprue.

You say that like it's a bad thing. I mean the alternative is discarding all the gangs for a new location or just packing up their bags and calling it a day.

And when that day comes I wonder if they will reform the current Necromunda into a proper Inquisitor-like game?

Super unlikely on the second bit.

But, one can use the new vehicle rules and Venator Gangs to do a sort of Guardians of the Galaxy / Ravagers type game.

The Gorvos siblings are coming soon.

I just wish the upgrade sprue was bigger so we can have all the missing resin weapn and left/right version of all weapons. maybe a champ/female ganger/house hired guns kit

No he was wanting a new Gang sprue (as in a third) of basic gangers is how I read it.

Either way, I don’t see thathappening as that’s a cost of 6 new gangs minimum all getting a new/unnecessary sprue (particularly in their eyes/costings).

But would we really say a year or more? Second of 6 already revealed.
I could see that length (maybe a bit more then yeah) if everyone is getting a second vehicle.

Unless GW unexpectedly changes their approach, a year or more is correct. There are five house vehicle releases left, one of which we've seen. Coming, provided there are no significant delays, in August, November, February, May and August again. Which is thirteen months from this month's perspective.

A new sprue every three months is the routine. The only question is if the order is materially affected or if it's the same order, but with Orlock jumping the queue... Next is Escher then Van Saar then Cawdor and last and obviously least Delaque?!? What is Orlock get two vehicles...

Spoiler:

This is what I want to see more of. The release of all the hired guns featured in the books has been painfully slow. How many guilds have miniatures? Two? Only Goliaths have minis for their noble house patrons. I love the designs in Necromunda but I’ve given up hoping that they’ll ever get up to speed with releases.

They honestly seem more interested in selling new books at this point, rather than actually giving us models for all the stuff in the books they’ve published so far.

Unless they release another big box with terrain and 2 gangs with vehicles.

Hmmmm... the Ash Wastes roadmap *did* show the core box - followed by three books - followed by another box...

Pretty sure that's where they print all these vehicles, and the additional bug types for the Nomads. Hopefully even more rules for vehicle customization such as extra large vehicles.

I see the "gunk bombs" as.. "hair gel bombs" given the exquisite pompadours on the models..

New Escher hanger's on:

Shivver:



Apprentice Clan Chymist:

I don’t want to say it less I jinx it but I have to say so being about to say it I apologise for jinxing it….

It’s really feeling like FW have extracted their Necromunda Digit, as we’re getting backlog gubbins at an improved rate.

Still a fair old way to go (Guilds…we need more Guilds!), but improved pace is improved.


Righto. That’s that knackered, back to quarterly releases and yearly “and we start again” House books

I have no actual clue what the hell is going on with the first miniature.

She's looking into her Crystal Ball Servo-Skull to divine the future.

No, really.

But why does her skirt do-

Whatever it's doing.

Aesthetic breeze. Flutter flutter.

Could be an actually functioning vent duct nearby, could be her powers manifesting a chill breeze, just because its mostly enclosed doesn't mean the Underhive has no air currents, after all its in the background that some areas have there own weather patterns.

No, really.

And she has a towel like Saruman to cover it. Who knows what kind of infernal powers might look back?

Not forgetting the rather nasty massive fan that appears in the Badzone Delta-7 tiles set. Tends to dominate the board as it sucks your gangers to their doom

There's a lot of nice touches on that model; the tarot cards, the veil, the cable-hair. Some fun Voodoo-Boys Cyberpunk vibes and that Chymist is the right kind of understated for me.

Convoluted concepts and sculpting there.
Not a good thing.

Necromunda Forever!

I quite like both of them. May add them whenever I do another FW order. The first would be fun to use as a priest for IG, and the second with a head swap could be an alternate DE lahamian

Removed.

Just curious, what do you consider convoluted about the concepts?
