So awesome, my brother and I are looking to get into a TTG and were considering to start with Warhammer 40K but this one looks to be a bit more affordable for us at the moment and sounds great. Keep up the good videos.
Excellent video only major thing that was wrong that stood out to me was the ramming rules. St is based on the moving vehicles movement characteristic not the speed travelled (weird I know it caught me out as well!) Looking forward to hearing the podcast
@@wellywoodwargaming Mate it doesn't surprise me it took a long time. It's really informative and well structured. GW should use this as their learn to play play video.
Samll mistake, you said the fighter may end the activation with a coup de grace, but it's actually end the fight action with a free coup de grace. It's around 22:50
It would be really useful to have a follow up on this with advice on how to use the yak tribe resources to track a game and use for the post game activities for a campaign to link the beginners guide to the campaign guide.
Thank you for this! Question: when attacking with paired melee weapons, the rules are: "A fighter that is armed with Paired weapons counts as being armed with dual weapons with the Melee trait for the purposes of calculating the number of Attack dice they will roll. Additionally, when making a Charge (Double) action, their Attacks characteristic is doubled. " Using the Orrus Hunter as an example, with Paired Power FIsts, his A is normally 2. When he charges successfully, how many dice does he roll? When making a Reaction Attack, how many dice does he roll? Thanks!
saame I bought the secundus box because of the genestealers even tho I'd already bought a sprue of them off ebay lmao. but Im hoping I can get my roomie to play with me
Have to ask as it is in the example part of the video. At 55:24 you say that the big guy can choose to coup de grace or move 2 inches away AS PART OF a charge action. Is that correct? When I look in the 2023 rulebook it seems to say that you get a free Fight (Basic) action as part of a charge, but do you also get a free Coup de Grace as part of that Fight (Basic) action in the same turn as you charged? Can't find it in the book.
Thank you for your explanation , great video ! Now from a rule perspective, the stray shot rule make no sens to me. If you follow the rules, you could target a really distant fighter with a powerful short range weapon. The target is too far and the attack is automatically a miss, and since it's a a miss it trigger the stray shot rule. Now if a second fighter stand a little bit too close on the right or the left of original target, you have a 50% chance to hit him with your short range weapon ! Maybe I'm wrong but I haven't seen anything in the rules to prevent that situation from happening, it only says "shot miss -> do 50/50 roll to hit any other fighter in 1inch range of the measured line between attacker and target". So it can by 1 inch in any direction from any point of the line that link the attacker to it's target. On top of that, with some positioning, it's also possible to use Stray shot to shot target on which your fighter does not have any line of sight at all.
If the stray shot result is a 1-3 then the bullet/shot is on target to hit the other out-of-range ganger but still falls short. A variation of this question is when there's a closer target in full cover and you shoot at a target behind them in partial cover. If the shooter is a WS5 juve they'll miss the partial cover target but hit the closer full cover one 50/50. I believe most people house-rule this so the -2 modifier is applied at that point and you only hit the close target on a 1.
I'd definitely put my guys' field of vision on their base edges, a white section or something like that. Squinting across the table at a miniatures tiny head and trying to guess which side it's looking doesn't sound like a lot of fun.
It seems to me 10th Edition seems to be borrowing from Kill Team. I wish they'd take more from this as well (at least just small bits as 40k is a bigger scale game, but this reminds me a bit of 3rd edition in some ways). I've always wanted to play KT or Necromunda. Thanks for a great video! The game definitely seems interesting.
@@wellywoodwargaming just how it works in general, weather failing the will power check means you can keep trying untill you pass or if it uses an action and you try again. Seems people are at odds with it. The missus got me the CGC so I'm currently playing with them🤣
@@MrAllgoodnamesaregon ok so the wording is important here. It states in the rule book the a failed wp check leads to a failed action not activation. So bear in mind a fighter has 2 actions per activation. One is failed , but as it was failed it does mean you can attempt the action again rules as written. Just need to pass a second wp check if it's a shoot/fight action. Hope that answers your question
Excellent video. I'm wondering about one thing - "editions". As the recent box is Ash Waste, does the new rulebook in that boxed set contains new and complete rules? What about the former boxes: Hive War, Dark Uprising, or Underhive? I'm new to Necromunda in its current form so I'm a little bit confused. I saw on the GW website that there is a "regular" rulebook containing all the information but Hive War is still available and contains some kind of a rulebook. And what was the starter set Underhive? Are the rules in that boxed set the current ones? And the last question, if the Hive War rulebook contains current rules should I start with Ash Wastes or may I stay with Hive War?
Ok, so there have been 4 starter sets, underhive, dark uprising, hive war, and ash wastes. All of them contain rulebook. However the most up to date is of course the solo rulebook which contains the errata over time.
It's definitely usable, however it is pretty outdated and many of the rules have been updated. There should be an errata document download on the games workshop website though fyi
Awesome mate, love your videos! Question that has been plaquing me and my gaming group. If you shoot a blast weapon and you fail your BS roll, it misses and you have to roll scatter dice + D6". When rolling the scatter dice and you score HIT and 1 something has gone wrong and you have to roll another D6 to see what happens etc. My question is, what happens if you miss your BS and then roll scatter dice and D6" but the result is HIT + 2-6 on D6 ? Cheers in advance mate
@@wellywoodwargaming Bloody hell! I did not even realise it had an tiny arrow in it. Must come from playing GW games ever since late 80's so in my mind's eye I visualized older W40k scatter dices which did not have the tiny arrow in them. :D Cheers for the help mate! :)
@Wellywood Wargaming Why can you make an Aim Action and a Shoot Action, when they are bouth Basic Actions? There can only be one Basic Action per activation, right?
Hey man, the charge action explanation with the caveats for Versatile weapons…. Where did you find the language for that? I can’t find the bit about being able to stop short of moving into base to bad contact. Have checked the rulebook and the errata…
Under ‘Versatile’ rules it says you don’t have to be base to base but nowhere says you don’t have to complete charge this is a (valid in my opinion) assumption by the community
Please stop saying "Of course" in an intro video. "Of course" sounds condescending to someone who knows nothing about what you are supposed to be introducing. Otherwise great video, very informative, great visual representations. Thank you for your work!
This was excellent. Could you do a follow up covering campaign rules? Pre and post battle stuff, trading rules, captured enemies etc?
Ok sure!
@@wellywoodwargaming Well that was quick! ua-cam.com/video/SwSAsSlNZLw/v-deo.html
I second!!
Thats an amazing suggestion, also some of the scenarios was very confusing to me and my campaign's players, if possible, would love to see that also.
I would like this too!
Heck yes! Just what I needed. Awesome work dude
It took me a while! Hope you enjoy it

As an avid necromunda player, ITS A TRAP. SCENERY WILL FLOG YOUR WALLET FOR EVERYTHING YOUVE GOT
Yeah but how awesome is the table going to look as a result?
@@abrentwalker have you looked at Mantic Games terrain offerings, other companies terrain and just making it your self
Well done, this is something a lot of people have asked for.
Really appreciate this.
Well put together and easy to grasp!
This really helped me understand the mechanics of the game as I'm trying it out for the first time, thanks

Thank you

Late to the party but… wow great job on this sir!
It's always cool to find a channel that focuses on Necromunda. I want to try out a Cawdor gang or maybe House Delaque.
Samll mistake, you said the fighter may end the activation with a coup de grace, but it's actually end the fight action with a free coup de grace. It's around 22:50

This game feels more overwhelming than Infinity, and that's my main game and is known for many rules.
Great for revision too.

Top vid mate❤
Great - although it had been more informative if Oberon had survived the charge and retaliated (him having two sidearms - which is tricky in CC)…
Great job
Thanks a lot
Great vid!
Awesome video, would love to see your explanation and uses of terrifying as it seems to be a high topic of debate 🤣
In regards to the wyrd power or the trait in general? I think it's fine honestly

Absolutely! They're on dischord, of you email me I can put you in touch. Wellywoodwargaming@gmail.com
A weapon with the sidearm arm, if it has other traits do they work aswell? In melee that is ?
Yeah absolutely

Does anyone have a resource for reading all the rules in one place?
@Wellywood Wargaming
Why can you make an Aim Action and a Shoot Action, when they are bouth Basic Actions? There can only be one Basic Action per activation, right?

Yeah there is a lot of stuff to take in thats for sure but the core principles are all you need to get started

So mordheim but cringe?
What do you mean exactly?
@@wellywoodwargaming nothing much, just kinda a shitpost comparing necromunda to its whfb equivalent
They're similar originally. Oldmunda predates mordheim but both were great. I think the newer mechanics are better though for sure. Give it a try
