Mercator Temperium: The Air Guild Rules for Necromunda 2024

Air Guild

The Air Guild controls the flow of breathable air throughout the hives of Necromunda.  The Guild holds the threads of life itself, and can command entire sectors of the hives.  

Benefits

Aero-Merchants:  All weapons with the gas trait can be purchased by the Air Guild, regardless of rarity or restrictions.  In addition, all Gas weapons also gain the Plentiful trait, replacing any previous ammunition related traits.  

Athermatic Rigging Crew:  “While the gang is allied with the Air Guild, in the pre-battle sequence, the gang may attempt to add Guild Representatives (see page 33) in the form of a Athermatic Rigging Crew (see below) to their gang for the battle ahead: 

  • Roll a D6 and add the gang’s current Reputation:  If the total is 10 or below, the Athermatic Rigging Crew deigns to aid their allies on the battlefield.  If the total is 11 or more, the Guilders decide that the gang can cope alone.
  • This group of fighters does not cost a gang allied to the Air Guild any credits to hire, but if chosen, they must be included in the gang’s crew, even if crew selection is normally random.

If, however, the gang is playing the Looters, Smash and Grab, Caravan Heist or Escort Mission scenario and is the defender (see Guard Duty below) then an Athermatic Rigging Crew must be included. Roll a D6 and add the gang’s current Reputation:

  • If the total is 10 or below, the gang is glad of this aid.
  • If the total is 11 or more, the gang is unhappy about this forced interference and they must Test the Alliance”

Drawbacks:  

Guard Duty: During the pre-battle sequence, if the gang has the option of choosing the scenario to be played, roll a D6. On a 1, 2 or 3, the gang must choose Looters, Smash and Grab, Caravan Heist or Escort Mission, and take on the role of the defender. On a 4+, they can choose any scenario as normal. Alternatively, instead of making this roll the gang can choose to play any scenario, but if they do they must Test the Alliance.

Premium Air: During the post-battle sequence, if the gang gained any credits as a scenario reward, the gang must give up a portion of this to their Guild allies:
  • The gang must give D3x10 credits to the Guild. If the amount rolled is greater than the amount gained, the gang must give the full amount gained to their allies and the Alliance is automatically tested.
  • Alternatively, the gang can choose to keep all of its rewards, but if they do, they must Test the Alliance.”

Warhammer 40,000 Kill Team Map Based Campaign Rules!

THE CAMPAIGN MAP The CAMPAIGN MAP  consists of a series of Hexes which can be represented by using Gaming Tiles or a graphic map. Depending upon how many players are participating in the campaign, the size of the map and the selected turn limit with vary.

Necromunda: Road Wars Campaign Rules Part 3

NECROMUNDA: ROAD WAR CAMPAIGN RULES #3 DESIGNED AND WRITTEN BY: COMMANDER CHEAPSKATE Territories in the Ash Wastes are altered a little from the Underhive. All gangs have one territory called the Wastelands Territory at gang creation. This territory is always in the Gang's Possession and they can never lose it. Whenever you captured a new piece of territory, roll on the Ash Waste Territory Table to determine what it is. Once the territory's identity is identified, it remains until the end of the campaign. It should be noted, that no territories offer Enhanced Boons to any gang in this campaign. The reason why is because no one holds sway over the Ash Wastes... No one...
