Necromunda

Lead a gang of miniatures through the hive underworld, and watch your crew grow across a whole campaign.

Small gangs, a ruler, a pile of dice and a hive city at the bottom of a very dark future. Necromunda is a miniature skirmish game from Games Workshop's 1995 stable, set in the Warhammer 40,000 universe. Each player leads a gang through fights across modular terrain, measuring movement and shots by hand. The real hook is the campaign: between games your fighters earn money and skills, pick up better weapons and slowly turn a scruffy crew into something that can rule the Under Hive. Recommended for two, with room for up to four. It is a hobby, not a one-evening box: you need miniatures, scenery and a group that wants to keep coming back.

Who it's for

You like painting miniatures and want a skirmish with a campaign that makes your gang feel like yours.

Not for you if…

You want a game from the box with nothing else to buy, build or paint. This one is a hobby project.

Vibe's take

Gritty and personal. You care about individual fighters, because they carry scars, skills and weapons from one game to the next.
