Find Out More About Gangs Of The Undercity
Gangs Of The Undercity is a skirmishing wargame in 28mm which features gangs of Fantasy races going up against each other throughout the streets of Neo-Babylon.
"Gangs of the Undercity is a cyberpunk/fantasy skirmish game set in the Undercity of Neo-Babylon. The city is bright, magical, and wonderful above; below, the only sources of stability, community, and aid are the Gangs. Unstable magic, outdated Cybertech, and garbage from the overcity become invaluable commodities underneath. The species dwelling there – dwarves, goblins, humans, orcs, yetin, and elves – fight among themselves and each other: alliances formed and broken as just another day’s work."
You can either take on the role of an existing gang within the lore or make your own gang from scratch, taking to the tabletop to try and stamp your claim on the streets and win victory for your cause.

Great figures for other games like batman,dredd,terminator, any other gang related game over an above the game they are made for.
The building’s are fabulous as well.
I kind of want to back this game, but I worry about the potential trademark issues. From Privateer about the calling a skirmish game Undercity, and from Nekrogoblikon the Metal Band about Nekrogoblikon the gang. Unless they’re licensing the name and making the band into the gang, in which case I’m in just for that.
Opti approached Nekrogoblikon on twitter, jokingly asking them if they would like to exist as a band in his world, 2, if they would like to be goblins in the game, and 3, if they would consider writing a song for the game… Nekrogoblikon said yes to all three… it was a pretty awesome exchange, and can still be found on twitter.
We got permission from Nekrogoblion. We ain’t no fools!
Re: Undercity – the “Undercity” trope has been used in dystopian fiction for a very long time. Judge Dread, Alita, Necromunda, Privateer, Shadowrun, Tolkien, Lewis, Final Fantasy VII, etc. We’re just putting our spin on it.
