Who didn't see this coming though? It was obviously going to be a dumbed down pathetic excuse for a game aimed at a casual audience and using the name of a past game to exploit the nostalgia of the veteran players.

That's kind of Games Workshop's new thing.

BASED ROUNTREE MILKING THE NERDS FOR DOLLARS DEFINITELY OUR GUY AMIRITE FELLOW HOOBYISTS

I knew about the 3D rules being separate a while ago, and gangs being in separate supplements, and was told that I was just a bitter grognard who basically wanted them to copy-paste the old game.

Then when GW revealed it as the truth, suddenly it was a good thing that a Intro Set didn't include the full rules because it gives new customers "more choice" and they might only want to play the box game (yeah right).

Either they were actually redshirts, or mentally deranged to the point of constantly defending a private company on the internet.

Welp. At least the miniatures are nice.

>Limited customization. Once a ganger is part of your gang you're not allowed to change them. Instead, if you want the same ganger with a different weapon, you hire him again but with the different gun. This seemed very strange to me, as they also mentioned gangers leveling up as a selling point and this didn't quite fit together. (Their argument was that this way you won't have to cut off / glue on new equipment; when I asked why not proxy it, they quite literally just scoffed at me.)

Anyone got that letter to White Dwarf were someone asks why they reduced the Autarch's weapon options and they said "converting miniatures is hard!"

I will still take roundtrees bullshit over the last guys complete contempt for his customers any day.

Any word on Ash waste nomads?
I'd like more minis for my Not!Fremen

No chance.

Not until at least 2020 if ever, if they are still making gangs by then. Going to be a year getting out the main gangs, and stuff like Enforcers, Ratskins, Redemptions, Scavvies, Pit Slaves and Spyrers are ahead of them in the queue for the secondary gangs, since the Ash Wastes stuff was limited release and limited to Fanatic magazine/website supplements.

All they've said is they're releasing the rest of the House gangs in 2018 so Ash Nomads are probably at least a year away.

Welp I think I might give Nu-cromunda a hard pass for Dark age until then

Fuck me GW.

First you kill SW:A on arrival with a shit campaign system and now you launch Nu-Necro with an advancement system people will have to go out of their way not to cheese.

Isn't that basically how it works in Mordheim? Having to do a bunch of conversions after a game was always an annoying part of Necro if you wanted to maintain WYSIWYG.

Where's that quote from?

Didn't work that way in Mordheim

Besides, Mordheim you'd equip them with what you wanted pretty quickly, and our group would just convert up new miniatures when needed.

Reddit. I'd take it with a pretty titanic pinch of salt. Same person said that gangs are limited to ten members (they're not). Necromunda still has mechanisms for finding or crafting new weapons in between games, how would that even work if your gangers couldn't use them? I suspect that they were told about the limited contents of the boxed set rather than the full game.

Briefly watched the video. What made you make this conclusion?

OP is a fag and his shit's all retarded.

No you autist they said that their official current policy is that they only release codex's with models you can buy from them to prevent any confusion. ( Likely to appease the people who endlessly complained they didn't get Tervigon or Spore Pods )

But if you want to run an autarch with a banshee mask or whatever you can either use the index list or just agree it will be your opponent. To which everybody screeched because they need the mighty authority on high to tell them what to do rather than use their own brains and agree what's reasonable with their opponent.

To go back on point if you don't like the new Necromunda rules play the old ones or house rule the bits of the new ones you don't like and enjoy the new models and resurgence of interest.

It's so weird that in the RPG community players happily house rule stuff and use different editions to whatever suits their groups but wargamers need the mighty authority on high to tell them what to do with their toy soldiers or they're literally incapable of it.

are you a bot or do you only know how to blame jews and repeat yourself?

Fuck yes! I love you NECROMUNDA!

meh ill still get it

is there a rules pdf to download?
i want to see how much is ripped off from shadow war

I doubt there is anything from SW:A. From what we've seen so far they've changed a lot from classic Necro.

Because most of the time RPGs are played with people you have at least a passing acquaintance with, while Wargames are often pick-up affairs with strangers and no-one likes to have to argue and go back and forth on the specifics of House Rules before the game even begins. That's why AOS was on life support until points came along.

Whats the realistic time frame on the other gangs? Will we get any before next year?

Don't think it is possible. It would have been leaked. I'd suspect two gangs a month starting January.

That's optimistic. One gang at best, with an expansion book per every two gangs.

ugh and they're probably gonna get all the Houses out before they release the Scavvies

Duh. I want my enforcers! I was planning to convert them for Shadow War, but now I just need to wait.

Yeah it is optimistic but they've said they want to put out gangs faster than BB got teams and I can see them doing a "rival houses" thing and releasing dual gangs.

I've briefly watched video; why did you make conclusion that advancements are not random anymore?

It's talked about on other sources such as the DakkaDakka thread. No idea why the OP didn't post those instead of an unboxing.

So in another words it is "Necromunda unconfirmed shitposting edition"

>One plastic team every quarter
For FUCK'S sake.

Dead game.

Fucking GW. Why do they bother bringing back these products if they are going to support them even more poorly than they did originally?

They should have at least released the more "generic" gangs first as I guarantee more people would play Van Saar, Orlocks, or even Delaque over Goliath and Escher.

what the fuck are they thinking

I can't fucking wait for Titanicus now. The box will be Imperial Warlord titans vs Ex-Imperial Warlord titans with spikes on them. Two each with some naff plastic LOS blockers. Then once every quarter we will get another big titan or a knight sized unit.

This is not how you market a game you expect people to actually play long term. You need to launch a decent basic experience within a month.

Shadespire is how you do this right but apparently anything by specialist games is DOA.

Yeah I'm actually reconsidering whether to go in for this or not now, and Goliaths are my favourite gang.

One gang per quarter is way too slow of a release schedule. It would take 2 years to get to the point of the house gangs plus outlander gangs. Sure they'll probably be some filler WD articles/online pdfs for the likes of Enforcers, Ash Waste Nomads, Genestealer Cults and Chaos Cultists.

But that release schedule could very well kill the game off before it starts. You only need to look at how the popularity of Blood Bowl has nosedived due to lack of support.

I accept your concessions.

I sunk probably close to a thousand on terrain for SW:A and that died off almost instantly so I am a bit pissed off.

I'll still probably buy it and it'll sit with my BB and Space Hulk boxes that never get played.

Meanwhile I can easily get a game of X-wing or Star Wars: Armada.

>Games Workshop is fucking up their games
>But, oh boy, I can't wait until they release this other game! What can go wrong?

Forest, trees, etc...

My comment was sarcastic.

>being dependant on GW to keep your game alive
>laughingspecialistgrogs.wrd

Then I apologize for my autism.

Yeah I'll still get most of it. My club has an annual Necromunda campaign so at the very least it'll be new models and scenery we can use.
The thing is the way GW are doing this fucks over new players more than anything.

I have a feeling he misspoke; it doesn't really jive with how GW release things. 6 house gangs, I have a hunch it's at worst going to be 1 house every other month (with filler releases during the odd months).

It's exactly how they handled Bloodbowl though

I'm pretty sure Andy specifically said 1 gang and one Blood Bowl team per quarter.

Another thing I noticed with the "faction focus" on Escher is that they seem to have a lot of anti-Goliath tech. Toxic and Gas weapons that can self buff so that one of the main strengths of Goliaths in there resilience is pretty much negated.
Hopefully Goliaths have got some way to make up for this.
