Spanish Manlove posted:The octarius box was such a good deal, congrats for getting it for cheap. The terrain is super modular for KT and really fun Yeah, it was my very first GW thing, and it is pretty awesome. If you can Count Thrashula, get two, that way you can build all the options for the Vet Guard, who are an amazing team that you'll want them all for.

Guildencrantz posted:Conversely, I got into terrain building because of Necromunda. It's the perfect game for it. One, it really benefits from having lots of multilevel terrain on the table, two, it has fun rules for all sorts of weird terrain features, and three, the "underhive ruins" vibe means that any imperfections and random builds from trash and scrap plastic are entirely fine and thematically appropriate. Yeah, I love the theme / setting. I just need to find people to play with! EDIT: is the rulebook in the Hive War box the full rulebook, or will I eventually need to get the core rulebook?

Is the Ash Waste Necromunda rulebook a supplement for the new stuff, or is it everything plus? Because I finally just found a copy of the "old" rulebook and ordered it....

Virtual Russian posted:I helped host an old necromunda campaign over a decade back. We built a massive number of very nice looking terrain pieces from a combination of junk, bitz, and a lot of foam-core. Probably the most fun I had gaming. I said before one of the reasons I was getting into Necromunda was to make terrain and I wasn't kidding. Battle Brothers Tabletop had a episode / interview with Glass Half Dead out today (or yesterday) titled "Is Kill Team Any Fun" and basically summed up what something I felt but hadn't consciously realized: KT is a very solid and good game, but it is designed for being super competitive, and you have to be so focused on rules / strategy / etc. while you play that it is borderline stressful. I actually enjoy that sometimes and will definitely be playing KT for a while, but Necromunda just seems like fun. Someone posted about it's just crazy poo poo happening and you tell stories about nutso endings to games and so on and how the models develop personalities and so and and I'm all sorts of in on that as well.

Necromomunda gang question: you can promote a Prospect to a Champion, but reading the House of Shadow book, it looks like Gangers can become Specialists, but can't go up to Prospect? Ditto with Juves... they can be Specialists, but never Gangers? Just want to make sure I got that right. EDIT: I found the Advancements thing where you can make a specialist into a champion, so seems I was sort of right! Lumpy fucked around with this message at 01:38 on May 5, 2022 |

Bored Online posted:The new killteam box reveal has me questioning something from the compendium. I am new to the game, and have only played with explicitly killteam units. The bespoke teams have a large number of specialists, but still limit the team to X models. For example, the Legionary team has 10 models because there are 9+ specialists but the team is still limited to six models.

I just started and picked up the core rule book and the House of _____ for my gang as was recommended here, has everything you need and a big campaign. If you can wait, and if the Ash Wastes rulebook is coming out soon (I think someone here said like 3 weeks?) then I'd probably grab that rulebook instead.

Jack B Nimble posted:I have my first Kill Team game tentatively scheduled with a dude I met while observing a local 40k tournament. He's interested in learning Kill Team and we're going to meet up next weekend. Things you need for Kill Team: * Core rules (book or digital) * Rules / data cards for your team(s) (book or digital) * Models for your roster(s) * Tokens (order tokens, injury tokens, APL tokens, etc.) * The measuring doodads (which you can replace with a tape measure, but they are nice to have) * Tac op cards (two sets) * Board to pay on (22"x30") * Terrain to put on said board. * Some D6 to roll * Some dice to mark wounds And yeah, a Hunter Clade team is a leader and nine other operatives, so 10 models is all you need. A couple videos on how to put down good terrain: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pDqhBexa2XE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vmw5z1qUfpQ Rules that get messed up all the time: * Vantage points only work on people in LIGHT cover. * You need to be more than 2" away from heavy terrain to be obscured by it. * The "No Cover" rule doesn't actually remove cover; it takes away the auto save that cover give you. (the "Indirect" rule actually removes cover) Have fun!

EdsTeioh posted:I figured that'd also be an option. Did you do one plasma and one melta? You absolutely want the plasma. The melta can be handy when fighting teams with invulns, so it's nice to have, but plasma is king, esp. when you can give yourself re-rolling 1s.

EdsTeioh posted:OOOOH ok, so, frex I hit with a Long Las and get one 6, opponent gets 3 6s, I'm still doing 3 wounds? Yes. For every crit you roll, you do the MW damage. So if you rolled 3 6s and they rolled 36s, you do 9 wounds. Which is why melta is used against invulns because it stacks so much MW on crits.

Floppychop posted:I feel like the financial incentive against the rulebook churn, especially with games like Necromunda, is just getting more players. We just started a campaign and we did a "how to play" game to go over the rules, and the six of us share two rule books during games if we have to look things up, and it's worked so far to keep new players from balking at the cost. Speaking of Necromunda campaigns: does anyone know of any sources of good 3-4 player scenarios? I know there's a couple in the rulebook, and one or two in each house book that can be played that way, but I was hoping for a big treasure trove of homebrew ones I failed to find.

Hipster Occultist posted:So I just picked up the Ironhead Squats, some friends wanted to start a Necromunda campaign for the first time and apparently I bought the newest thing that has very little written about it. Seems fine, but I don't have the Squats book so I don't know the weapon stats (how Ironhead guns differ). The only thing I'd change is maybe lose one armorless ganger and add a couple melee focused juves. Right now you only have two people who can melee, and one you don't want to lose probably. With your small movement, you are much more likely to get charged than be the one charging, so having some disposable bodies you can put as meatshields around your other people is not a bad idea. That said, it's Necromunda, so if your list feels cool to play, then it's a good one!

So yeah, there will be four game weeks in the takeover phase, and then it's over and the Triumphs go out. You'll have a blast. I'm really, really loving Necromunda both as a game and as campaign system. Hearing people talk about how it was a "game of cool moments people talk about for weeks after" here is what got me to try it, and they were spot on.

Drewjitsu posted:I have also been shanghai'd into a kill team group, and I have chosen VG as my team. Any advice on how to play them for an absolute noob would be muchly appreciated. VG are one of, if not the hardest team to play well, as there are so many moving parts. So the crash course is: - Plasma - Your biggest strength is bodies: you out-activate everyone so use that to your advantage by either moving your chaff into threatening positions early to make opponents come out and shoot them, or simply hiding people then passing units who aren't going to move / do much anyway until your opponent is out of activations, then you can move where you want (avoiding overwatch, of course) - The spotter is a sniper's good friend, but he is even better friends with your plasma gunner. Letting your plasma blast a guy who's in conceal is wonderful, and your sniper can still shoot w/ silent. If you issue the order to re-roll 1s to shoot, overcharge all day. - The downside of that many bodies is you have to clump up. Ask if your opponent has and blast / torrent weapons and try not to get caught out. - Plasma - Park your medic 2.1" away from your plasma. - Take the 4 troopers, give them a krak and frag, run them out to try to take people out or draw fire. Remember they activate in pairs! - Keep your comms guy near your leader, and park them in the back. Relaying orders is hugely helpful. Some like to take the pistol / chains word leader, but I think keeping them back and ensuring orders for all all game is goodly. - Giving the Demo guy +1 AP means he can move, plant the mine and detonate it on the same turn. This is absolutely devastating. - You almost always want to use Into The Breach first turn to move almost everyone 3" before the first turn. You can deploy in "bad" spots knowing you can get into cover before anyone can activate. - Give somebody the Rosary. Giving it to the Bruiser or Hardened Vet can make them super hard to kill. - You absolutely want to take a grenade launcher. - Plasma - Against invuln save teams / super high wound teams, melta (in addition to plasma)

Necromunda campaign question: if a player has a territory that gives them a hanger-on as a boon (I.e. they own the Rouge Doc Shop and get the free doc) and then that hanger on is killed, is the boon lost, or do they get a replacement?

The territory just says that you may recruit a Rogue Doc, but since this happens after the medical escort step of the Post Battle actions the new Rogue Doc wouldn’t be available to stabilize any injured fighters from that last scenario where the other Rogue Doc was killed. That makes sense, thanks!

Ravendas posted:I played a lot of LRB Necromunda 10+ years ago, and loved the "raggedy gangers with handmedown weapons" was definitely more 'true' to the original gang warfare than the current fare. Sure, the new version is still supported, but that doesn't mean it's better. Having to buy a $50 book every few months to stay current, with the complete mishmash of rules all over the place to really get anything done, I'm not sure I like it! It's just too much cost and effort to stay current. I magnetized a box of Delaque and all the arms in the upgrades box as well based on your other post. Totally stealing your nail in a cork thing to paint the arms.

Al-Saqr posted:Hey guys, been thinking of dipping my toe back into 40k but I cant go the normal route since that would require alot of money and time investment, as well as the fact that I dont have anyone else who would be willing to learn the rules with such minutae. Sadly, Space hulk seems to be extremely rare expensive. Necromunda has multi-player missions, and most can be tweaked to handle multiple players. It is nothing like 40k gameplay wise. It is insanely fun though. Kill Team plays not much like 40k rule-wise but is tied more closely to it model / faction wise, and I think it plays more like it in the sense that it's very strategic thinking "know rules well" based. It is also fun. KT is very much 2 player only, but no reason you can't wing it.
