Add A Military Attaché To Your Gang In Necromunda Soon
August 17, 2021 by brennon
Games Workshop has been previewing some more interesting characters for the grimdark Sci-Fi world of Necromunda. A pair of Military Attaché can be snapped up and dropped into your gang soon with both the Krieg Mester and Jagerkin ready to drill your gang to make them more effective.
Krieg Mester // Necromunda
Shop Necromunda @ Store.OnTableTop
Coming from House Greim, these military commanders are ready to bring the power of the noble houses to the dregs of the Underhive. The Krieg Mester offers tactical advice to your gang leaders and can perhaps offer up something of an upper hand when it comes to dealing with your foes.
As well as that, the Krieg Mester can also get stuck in and kick ass with his power sword. I like the idea that he literally walks everywhere, the clank of that bionic leg sounding on the gangways as he wanders the Underhive. You get the sense that he is still pretty spry and could avoid the flailing chainswords of his foes before dispatching his foe with a simple swipe of his cane.
The second of the miniatures is the perhaps more proactive Jagerkin.
Jagerkin // Necromunda
These bonded servants stand before their Krieg Mesters and follow them into the heaviest of the fighting. They are often drawn from the Astra Militarum and are tasked with a simple directive. Keep the nobles alive. They are damn good with their weapon of choice and will throw themselves into danger to protect their masters.
Any gang may draw on the tactical nuance of a Military Attaché if they swear allegiance to House Greim. It seems like they enjoy working alongside House Goliath in particular. If you're looking to pick them up then watch out for a release soon and find the rules in House Of Chains.
Are you going to be snapping up these miniatures?

Great looking figures. Sir Justin of Necro?
“Krieg Mester” G’Wullu really gets lazy with names… only an i missing for “Krieg Meister” (War Master)
So this is Horus? 😉
There are other warmasters. This could be Solar Macharius, right?
Yeah…
Wow. Is House Greim new to the fluff? I can see the baldy guy doubling as an Inquisitor for a lot of folk too, maybe an eccentric officer for my Guard.
a Necromundan themed Guard army would be a fun project with characterful additions like these…
Oh yes. Orlocks with knaki cutoffs, Tank Girl Eschers.
Jeebus Dave don’t tempt me!
I was thinking an RPG group of Rogue Trader types.
They named the Military attache “War Master”, so basically Horus? Very creative naming ?
They are rather nice-looking figures. Now can you actually get them and how many limbs are needed to pay for them?
Those two look really good.
The clawed-foot prosthetic on the top guy is certainly impressive and fitting for his crazy baroque styles. I don’t know though why they bothered to give these guys crazy designations like “Krieg Master” when you could just call them Spyrers or Rogue Traders and be done with it,which is pretty much all they are.
Calling ~10% of their minis some variant of War Master is what keeps me going ?
I think possibly my favourite lazy GW name is “Krieg Acerbus” the Night Lord – basically translated as Violent War.
Kudos GW Kudos.
Although to be fair after 25+ years of making sh!t up I suppose the well of cool sounding names has to run dry at some point.
Hehe. There was a recent Alpha Legion book. It was genuinely good (GW authors are getting better at chaos space marines) but one of the characters being called Vilnius was a huge distraction.
(Capital of Lithuania, lovely place, I really recommend a visit.)
ha ha! Classic!
Have they used Latin for Warmaster yet? Seems like it is too obvious for them to have missed it.
