I play it and i think its cool. Needs some updating though. Some more weapons and equipment, aswell as SOME new rules

Inciner8or · May 17th, 2003, 13:46

They just bringing out updated rules of necromunda from fanatic. As far as i can see, there are no rules changes except some minor clear-ups.

Used to play it loads, but can't find any opponents now.

Everyone seems to be leaving the smaller games and playing 40K/WFB.

What's Necromunda, i think ive seen it somewhere :confused:

BorninDarkness · May 17th, 2003, 19:53

I might check it out, the idea of having a small gang sounds appealing. Does anyone know when the new rulebook is done?

Inciner8or · May 18th, 2003, 00:41

Latest WD say the rulebook is finished but says nothnig about release dates.

Collect Van-Saar.

The rulebook is done...It has been released in the UK but there is no release date for the US yet...I heard they might not release it to to many other parts of the world...

The rules were damn good and I don't think they need to be changed, but GW no longer makes some of the dice neccesary so they tinkered with the rules...as far as I've heard these have been good changes so far, but at least one rule change bothers me. The Hand Flamer used to have its own template...since they dont want to spend money to make new templates, the Hand Flamer uses the current flame template, but is only good for one shot. After that it is usuable only in HtH...Lame...

That Really sucks 'cause the Hand Flamer was a key element in my undefeated and rightfully feared Esher Gang

Undefeated? Wow! Whats Your gang rating? Mines only 1500ish but then again ive only just started playing necromunda. I collect goliath. But i cant play much cuz my stupid brother never wants to play..

EverythingStatic · May 18th, 2003, 19:59

I retired them at a gang rating of 4200...

BorninDarkness · May 22nd, 2003, 22:13

What's a gang rating? Is it like experience or something?

EverythingStatic · May 23rd, 2003, 01:52

Gang rating is a mix of Equipment and Experiance. It's kind of a way to judge how good a Gang is. It's a close relative of the 40k points system. However when playing a against a gang with a far superior gang rating your Gangers will gain more experiance, and if you win you get a bonus to your income as the local merchants hear of your great victory...

You start with 1000 credits to hire gang members and equip them, each gang member has varying amounts of experiance, ranging from 60+ for a Leader or a Heavy, to 20+ for a starting Ganger, to Zero for Juves... when you're done Hiring your Gang members and calculating thier Experiance you add them together to get Gang Rating.

Much like DnD when you reach a new level of experiance you get an advancement...
