What is Necromunda?
Necromunda is a skirmish miniature wargame set in the underhive of Warhammer 40,000's Hive World Necromunda, first released in 1995 and relaunched in 2017. Players run rival gangs (House Escher, Orlock, Delaque, Van Saar, Cawdor, Goliath) who fight for scraps in the ruined lower depths. Its multi-level 3D terrain, campaign progression and injury tables make it as much a role-playing experience as a wargame.
