Hello,
The Irregular(s) have moved from world war to small fights. Our group is ramping up for a new round of Necromunda.
We’ve battled in the Underhive for 20 years or more. As with our group’s other games, we change rules. We hope our little world provides inspiration or at least some entertainment, as others on Dakka have inspired us.
It’s a slow ramp up to the first game, so we started with some background.
Enjoy!

If this is the wrong place, please move. If it doesn’t belong please nuke.

Hello,
As we close in on the start of the new Necromunda campaign, gangs get created and the painting and modeling starts. A new edition of the Grimfish Harbor Howler is published and rules for sidekicks are added.
Enjoy!

Hello,
The first fight between our new gangs kicked off. It was a basic brawl, to refresh on the rules.

While I don't do Necromunda, I must say that those are stellar boards you have there!

Very nice tables indeed. Necromunda is a game where going high is a desirable feature and that looks great for it.

Hello!
We have been making a concerted effort to go vertical with our Necromunda boards. It adds so much to the combat to have a grenade (or falling Juve) land on your head.
Thanks for the kind words.

Hello!
The scenery guy wandered in with a new treat for the Emperor’s Getaway in Hive Decastus. If a ganger is gonna go, might as well go getting shot from the top of this beauty. We hope it inspires others to build.
Enjoy!

First fight on the new tower. A new Wyrd shows up. Betrayal. The poor results of betrayal.

Enjoy!
(Numerous attempts with numerous pictures all resulted in upside down and sideways pictures. Hive Decastus was always backwards, but I guess it’s now upside down. )

Just stumbled on this. Loving what you all are up to and will be following.
Just to clarify, as the base for your modifications, are you using the ORB or LRB?
I'm just curious as we did a short campaign with the NCE (Yaktribe's edited version) and loved it.

Hello,
We are using the original books. Necromunda is our most “narrative over rules” game we play. Our lack of competitive spirit allows us to pivot easily from a rule that isn’t working for us. Many of the rules we add come to fruition due to finding a model one of our players likes, or a piece of scenery we build and creating rules around it.
On several occasions we have changed a rule mid game. Not how everyone would like to play, but it works for us.
Hope you see something you like and happy to see you here.

It’s a crossover event. Everybody loves a crossover event. The Harlem Globetrotters meet Scooby Doo. The Harlem Globetrotters meet Gilligans Island. Now Necromunda meets Dungeon Bowl..sort of

The dungeon bowl crossover continues with a big bang as the gangs loot an Emperor’s Getaway center of culture.

We have added a new terrain piece for the underhive. Several weeks of building and swearing brought the beast to life.

Amazing! You've redone the classic styrofoam Necro Tower from White Dwarf in modern style. I love it.

Any chance that any pre-paint or in-progress pics were taken. I'd love to see more of how this beast came together.

Unfortunately we didn’t really save any pictures that were mostly sent when we communicated by text. I can tell you we only had limited plans when we started so created/designed/built/painted one level at a time. There was no real blueprint other than the basic shape and we knew we wanted each section to have 4 levels.
It was always our intention to make two of these (4 buildings of 4 levels each). We are tentatively planning to the other building this winter. We will try to be more mindful and take pictures/document as we go.
Here are a few pics in process.
