Necromunda Has A Showing Here At Essen

16 Comments

Games Workshop has got fully playable demos of Necromunda on the tabletop and they have loads of people interested in this new iteration of the game with the map-tile based approach.

Do you think you're going to be convinced to give this version of the game a go or will you be focusing on the old school tile-less approach?

Convinced to give it a go? I’m already making enquiries about selling my child on the black market to raise funds for it!

Well, I hope your enquiries are answered! Although, maybe not for the child in question…

She’s quite young, she won’t really know. Plus if worst happens I could sell the wife with her as a sort of bundle

Yup me 2, both of them in fact, one for a few all in industrial terrain crates from mantic, and the other for a few copies of necromunda 😉

I can’t say I find the aesthetic appealing. I haven’t played an earlier iteration, and I will probably give this one a miss as well.

It looks like they rush painted those miniatures on the demo tables though. Good lord…

The new tiles don’t appeal to me, i’m looking forward to a lot of old school games on a 4×4 with my vintage Van Saar 😀 .

They’re releasing a PDF download with rules for all the classic gangs.

I need this game… mostly for the new miniatures.

I liked the multi level approach of the original.

The original looks to be better. Especially with the levels.

I reckon the new one will be better if you play it with Sector Mechanicus scenery. Or if you prefer a less Gothic look some MDF laser cut scenery. Those new miniatures look miles better than the originals.

I’m very excited about this. I went and dug out my old gangs. of course, I’m guessing the Redemptionists are about to get a massive graphics overhaul.

When I saw this was coming out, I thought of all the great sci fi terrain that Mantic is making with Terrain Crate. Those 2 combined will be amazing.
