Become a banshee, potentially risk becoming an exarch or being killed in action. Korlandril in Path of the Warrior had a budding romance with one of his fellow Striking Scorpions, before he quickly became an exarch. You live together, eat together, train together. And especially if you're one of the only males in the shrine, you've probably got a better chance than most Eldar because while part of an aspect shrine, they seldom leave the shrine.

If you mean as a human? Be a Rogue Trader, have money, power, and hope she's lonely and desperate enough to travel with you. Even if the likelihood of any aspect warrior traveling with a Rogue Trader isn't very high.

you don't even need to join the shrine, once you finish "boot camp" you can enjoy civilian life when nothing important is happening

Very fun if you have a nice group for it. I can imagine it wouldn't be fun if you have people who violently powergame or who are not good at parsing relevant and applicable information from multiple sources.
>>
>>92795637
It is a game with masses on rules that can be fun and annoying.
It is not balanced at all.
It is only fun in e good group with multiple active players in a campaign.
It is a game where you need a mindset of seeing cinematics in your head if things happen like people crawling over the floor, getting killed, fall from a bridge or house. If you have such a mindset you can have a real blast with the game (once you get comfortable with all the rules)

Is there any way to get Power Armor or something similar looking in Necromunda (for Escher or Genestealer Cult)? I have a spare Kyria Draxus (40k Inquisitor) model and would like to use it as a base for a conversion in Munda. I was thinking maybe it would be okay as a Heavy Carapace armour? That soundet like similar looking.
>>
>>92797126
Any sort of heavier armor combined with a partial or full servo-harness has a very power armour-like effect.

>>92797455

Carapace Armour + Armoured Undersuit also get's you a 3+ armour save. Necrovox also talks about something called "Ablative Underlay" which gives you a +2 to your save, then a +1 and then nothing, but I don't know where it's getting that from because it's not included in the trading post PDF.
>>
>>92798484

I find myself swinging towards Rat Ogre's on teams with cheap chaff that can support them. Underworld and it's bonus snotlings being the standout example. I've come completely around on Animal Savagery, as long as your team can account for it. Not losing your blitz when you fail your nega-trait roll is VERY strong.
The Chorf Mino has it as well, and with Hobgobs being only 40k can easily manage it.
>>
>>92797455
>>92798946
Thx guys, that means i have options. I find it hard to visualise some of the equipment so sometimes i have no idea how to represent that stuff. I hope it works out good.
>>
>>92798946
Ablative is an extra level of armor that is either nerfed or banned in every necro group I've personally been in contact with, it's way too cheap of a way to add to your armour save and doesn't have any limiting factors to it. Originally it used to be in the black market TP, but after they got combined in the new rulebook it's just common on the TP, which is ridiculous.
>>
>>92798512
you're looking for order tokens or something else?
a pretty easy way to make cheap flippable tokens is to print out the images you want on them at a little more than an inch (25mm - 30mm or so), and get yourself a 1" / 25mm punch. that will let you make nice uniform paper circles. then you take those and get some clear, thin acrylic circles, like 1mm thick x 25mm round, and glue them in to a little sandwich with the paper image in between.
>>
>>92798959
Objectively yes, AS is crazy good. The assurance of taking your action > any potential chaff removal. I'd go as far as to say that it is too good on Big Guys honestly. Closest I got to using it myself was Bloodlust with Vargheist, which is is even more broken as you can choose not to bite.
>>
>>92795637
Gigantic mess designed by the dumbest people imaginable. Also very fun.
>>
>>92799528
That sandwich explanation is actually smart I can make some if I order some mdf circular bases. They might be a bit wider than the actual epic Armageddon tokens but they’ll work and hopefully last longer.

It does but it is easy to activate Varg last and just tank the turnover. Now you got your BG where you want it and its a huge threat with its MA6 and guaranteed activation.

Turns out I own a Hades too. I'm going to paint the Repulsive up either way, because it's clearly the coolest ship in the entire game. I wanted launch bays, and didn't want to spunk 300 points into one Styx when I could spread the threat out.

I don't really get escorts yet, so I'll buy some (or not) after a few demos to see how they work in play.

So how is it like to play Necromunda? Is it similar to 40k third edition? Is it a good system to play an skirmish every now an then? All I know everyone is talking about the campaigns, but I don't really get what are those, it's not like there are modules with plot and things like that, are there?
>>
>>92815896

At base, a campaign is just linked fights; you guys can die, get injuries, but new gear. There can be storied campaigns or just a series of scenarios.

I don't generally like one off games, as development is the whole draw for me, and I don't really 'get' it, but it can be done - everything has a points value.
>>
>>92815896
Necromunda is quite complicated because of a lot of small niche rules. Thing like , if you shoot and someone is in the way you have to roll if you hit him instead , or , if you hit someone at a cliff you have to roll if he falls down , and there are a lot of small rules like that. That sayed, these rules make it less suitable for just now and then games more for regular games.
The campaign system is mostly based on risk assessment because a match now changes the what team comp you have the next match. Is this action worth risking loosing that model, what to spend the money on or keep it save until something happened like emergency healings to not loose a model. stuff like that. Otherwise there are different types but the most common is just to make your own story along the way fighting to conquer a map and get boni depending on what territory you own.
It plays more like third edition 40k then 10th but both are completly different to necromunda, so not really worth comparing them.

Understandable. The Styx is a full support cruiser and as a chaos player you want to engage. And when it is defeated you loose many points at once.

Hades is nice too.

I'm looking on some advice for a Mordheim campaign I'm trying to set up. The intent is to onboard my brother-in-law into TOW through Mordheim, so I've roped various other relatives and friends into a very casual setting. Is there a best way to intro new players in beyond just jumping into the deep end and going through a practice match? I played a lot of Mordheim in high school, but the rest of the players are completely new to chucking dice.

Second, what's a good resource for terrain? I'd like being able to be comfy at home, but I'm well aware that Mordheim is greatly helped with good and plentiful terrain. I'm not opposed to making it, but I'm a bit of an artistic incompetent and struggle to visualize projects without examples/guides. I'd also be fine with 3d printing/buying cheaper plastic/wood/cardboard kits as long as they work with the setting.
>>
>>92818212

Your TOW plan is flawed because the play experience is completely different between the two, and you should be playing games for their own enjoyment. That being said, no one starts off good at terrain making, especially if it's part of the game, because you don't know yet how the game works. Look into the Dev articles in WD at the time. A good start is to thumbnail on paper 12x12" squares with the ground floor footprint of the buildings as tetris shapes, and work on LOS blocks and scatter.

Guys, I want to look into older editions of ME, which edition would you say's the best? Because wasn't there two or three before they swapped to The Hobbit?
>>
>>92824927
You could call FotR, TT, and RotK rulebooks their own "editions" of you'd like, but there are so few differences in core gameplay and the things added are mostly new basic mechanics which are considered normal by anyone who ever played the games. The editions you ought to think about are
>One ring rulebook that came with Moria starter being the collated Lotrsbg.
Legions of Middle-earth was not a new edition, rather it just changed army building rules and alliances around a bit.
>Hobbit era, with the Unexpected journey rulebook supplemented by the later releases.
>Mesbg, with the Gandalf rulebook now lacking the Erratas and the Eye of Sauron being the current one.
>>
>>92824927
And regarding which is the best, you should either play mesbg, or the Lotrsbg one ring rulebook if you want to play certain narrative scenarios. Hobbitsbg added a bunch of stuff but it was rough around the edges, a lot of the mechanics were honed down for mesbg.
>>
>>92825205
>>92825221
I see, so the One Ring book was essentially the 'definitive' book, while Legions was more of a sidestep than anything else.

Right, I'll check out the One Ring book, then. It'll probably be somewhere on Coffee, then, seeing as I've found pretty much every other book on there.

Thanks anon.

How would you fix chameleon skinks?
Personally, I keep forgetting they don't come with catch. It would give them an actual role on Lizardmen teams, early kick recovery, pass interception, and maybe hand-off plays. I would much rather have catch than shadowing on a chameleon skink.

>>92830487
They called it a new season so I figure it's like a new starter set
>>
>>92830487
It's like a new game mode for Necromunda. It looks to me like it follows the same pattern as Ash Wastes did. If you start with this box, you'll be able to play this game mode (looks to be co-op with each player having different, but roughly aligned goals), but because the rules are the same, the new gang should be back portable to the previous two kinds of campaigns (inside the hive and out in the wastes) and the older gangs should be usable in the new campaign style. Just from the preview, I'd say the elevator pitch is "what if two necromunda gangs were put on a space hulk board".

you should be able to find everything as file at least if you dig around a little. You can probably take a usb stick to a local 3d print shop and get models that don't have to be slightly different to avoid copyright IP issues.

Whenever I see the new coolest shit around being released for Nucromunda my brain is melting. I have never seen anyone playing it and in the past 5 years I've been an active tabletop player in 7 different LGSs across 3 countries.

Orrus was always going to be the most difficult to reimagine and they did an okay job of it, I guess. I do echo >>92835303 though, spryers are probably never going to satisfyingly integrate into the base game.

What do you mean by Orrus Spyre Hunters not being Spyrers?

no idea about sales (apperently they get bought frequently but a lot of buyers never really play and just paint them use them for kitbash or proxy or resell them later.) but because Necromunda is less suited for just single skirmish games it is rather uncommon to play with randoms somewhere, you search a group and play with them.making it less frequent appearing in lgs if they are not part of the players or organisers.

It was never announced, but there are two reasons for it. One, it makes traffic look artificially high (removing poster counts also does that). Threads existing for weeks and months and years implies slow and low traffic, which is not appealing to advertisers.
The second reason is bumpfag, who was juggling a dozen+ threads about inane topics with inane questions. He wouldn't even engage with the few people who replied to him sincerely, he'd just ignore them until the thread made its way back down to page 9 of 10, then he'd ask another really inane question. Some threads with no other responses would just accumulate his one sentence questions for dozens of posts in a row. Autosage puts a hard cap on him.

Depends on what you mean. You cannot copyright ideas. Nor common concepts like rolling a D6 to play a game. If you copypaste full paragraphs from somebody else's books you have a problem though.
The exact extend of this will vary on a case to case basis. Using similar mechanics in a rule system is not a problem though, otherwise most games could not be published because there is obviously a lot of overlap and common conventions.

>>92840446
>Are you sure?
If you want to be sure you should consult a lawyer (or more) in your jurisdiction. Probably overkill though.

I've been kitbashing a Chaos cult for a couple of weeks. Fun stuff. Anyways, is there certain base size rules I would have to follow, or is most munda stuff on 25mm?

>Is Nucromunda simply THE comfort-zone kitchen-table game and people play it exclusively at their places?
Necromunda is easily my most played game and I dont think I've ever played at at an LGS, its just far easier to co-ordinate campaigns with friends.
>>
>>92841078
I'm a big fan of how fights play out in MESBG. Each fighter rolls a D6 and the highest roll wins and then they strike to wound. If the D6 roll is a draw, the fighter with the highest fight value wins and the winner strikes to wound. Would it be an issue to copy this?

I know nothing about necromunda gameplaywise but I like the look of these guys and their giant fleamonsters, are they interesting to play?
>>
>>92842714
Yeah, they lean a bit topheavy since almost all of them (Or actually all of them?) come with built in wargear to represent their waste survival gear, which is baked into their prices, and they have some really good and really expensive weapons. On average, they're down probably one or two guys compared to other gangs, but they have some spooky wasteland magic.

>>92840292

Famously no. How do you think Star Trek Attack Wing exists? (or existed, I honestly don't know if that's still a thing.) You think FFG just said "Sure WizKids, you can make this hilariously incompetent rehash of our game for Star Trek, using a scale of ships that our game was never meant for and incredibly broken combos that even we, as incompetent as we are at spotting such things, see problems with."?

Or that Ares games were okay with either of these jokers taking the movement system concept from Wings of Glory and using it to make a billion dollar franchise that once beat 40k?

Fuck them neophite-looking bald fags. But now, seriously, what support should we expect from Secundus? Will every OG gang get new sculpts/gear? Will the new models work as a "by the numbers" team with fixed equipment?

>>92845615
I like the design language they're going for with the new Spyrers. But dear god the colours offend me. I get it, James, they're bugsuits- you don't need a badly done iridescence to hammer it home. Like, fuck I think that one numb cunt from MWG did it better years ago, and she couldn't paint for shit.

>Patriarch/Matriarch
I'd assume if they get included they'll be resin kits that will come out some point down the line
>>
>>92845876
Meanwhile I'm still waiting for Corpse Grinders to get literally anything
>>
>>92846347
I think the difference there is that Delaque is one of the 'core' gangs of Necromunda. Whereas Corpse Grinders are a newer faction.

So when the other five core gangs get fancy new off roading kit, it stands out that the last of the Oldcromunda crews got bupkiss.
>>
>>92846347
you got an Apocrypha with some Ash Wastes options?
>>
>>92845900
Pretty sure the Orrus is going to be a "Brute-equivalent" or similar.
Patriarch and Matriarch were fan-creations were they not originally?
4 activations each sounds potentially horrible to face, but any gang with a way of limiting activations (web/blaze etc) is going to clown on them - one down and they'll potentially be bottling.
>>
>>92846882
Probable all-or-nothing playstyle, then?

>>92835063

Thanks, anon. It seems we have pretty similar painting styles. Here's my captains. Got a mostly done plastic Witch King I really need to just finish one of these days too.

Regarding Gothmog's flesh tone, I used Pro Acryl's red grey as the basecoat. I find it really useful for lighter orcs and undead(I really like warm gray tones these days, even neutral grays like on these two guys look way more "blue" than I'd like for skin or rocks). Then a wash and highlights. I tried to do a targeted reddish wash around the grosser and more scarred areas but you can't really see it.

Yeah, this. I need to see these in a competent colour-scheme before I make a judgement call because currently it is doing it absolutely no favours.
It's sort of like those infamous Minotaur sculpts they did for Beastmen about ten years ago. Sure they're pretty bad, but the paintjob just threw ALL the worst parts into sharp highlight. Whereas when you see other people doing those models in dark black or brown it looks a lot more acceptable.
>>
>>92847263

It's plastic. It weighs next to nothing. The model is fucking tiny as well, compared to their other trolls because it has to fit inside a Blood Bowl square.
>>
>>92847263
I've got no stability problems with mine, but I agree the way it was designed is dumb.

These aren't for me. Was actually thinking of converting an Orrus with a chunky Osi.Bone dude and either termintor or weirdname Primaris handguys, and basing a Yeld with Skitari wings. Seeing the new models, I prefer my ideas. I find the new sculpts ugly, lazy, and dull, and not at all reminiscent of questionably legal, questionably alien and almost certainly archeotech hunting rigs. Also, the community site blurb is just embarrassing. Downgrade is right.
>>
>>92845900

Led by a hunter master? What shit is this?
>>
>>92846882
I think the 4 activations are two groups of two. So they can't do two Doubles in a row.
>>
>>92847398

Well then do what we've been doing with unstable models since the fucking 80's and superglue a penny or two to the underside of the base for stability. It's not like it's a fucking Warjack.

So if I'm understanding, these dudes are basically rich brats from the upper hive who've come down to the lower levels to fuck about and kill gangers for fun? That's kinda neat. I guess they're going to be a relatively elite, low model count gang?
>>
>>92849638
Nta but you got it in one. Its like Battle Royale except some participants want to kill for lulz with 0 penalty. In a weird way, they are like human versions of the Predator

>inb4 muh honour

Killing a vastly inferior species for sport with mega tech is not honourable. Leaay Spryers are honest in their murderous intent
>>
>>92849638

Also, the more you kill the more powerful your suit gets. That said, since you can't use the trading post it made your gameplay super basic. Hopefully they'll have put a bit more work into levelling up your suit this time to make up for it.

They don't bother me honestly. Can't seem at tabletop distance.

>Why greenskin orcs though?
Because all orcs should be green.
#AllGreenOrcs

But honestly, it's because I prefer how orcs and orc-like things look best in green.
>>
>>92838170
I painted them green because I prefer it when orcs/orc-like things are green, and if you ask me the Uruk-Hai look better with different coloured skin since they tend to blend together on the tabletop imo.

>>92848027
>They are all so bad but they are my boys
I've played against worse, they look fine :)

>>92849638
That's more or less what they used to be about. Although the change of setting to Hive Secundus will likely put that aspect out of focus as they're pit against genestealers.

The sculptor said he wanted them to be painted in knightly quartering/color blocks, which sounds way more rad imo.

Fairly certain we even have a trove here anymore my guy. With how often it and the older warhammer troves- AoS and 40k and the like -got reported it eventually just dropped. Shame, given Fantasy and 40k got new troves made (even if the 10E folder for 40k hasn't had a codex in it since launch lol)
