New Necromunda Vermin Won’t Be Stopped By Rat Poison

March 25, 2024 by brennon

The Underhive and the Wasteland are swarming with all manner of mutated creatures and the Outlanders seem to have managed to control a few of them, turning their appetites towards opposing gangs in Necromunda. See what you think of these new kits coming soon from Games Workshop.

Outland Beastmaster With Giant Rat // Necromunda

Shop Necromunda @ Store.OnTableTop

We start with the Outland Beastmaster who has managed to capture and coerce this Giant Rat with two snarling heads. This set comes with the Outland Beastmaster who has tamed this creature. I wonder if the hand is to use as a snack when the Giant Rat gets a bit hungry and eyes up its master? You also get the two-headed beast that whilst designed for Necromunda might not be a bad addition to a new Skaven army for Warhammer Age Of Sigmar.

I like that she's also missing an arm which showcases the risks of her chosen profession! Maybe within her circles, this might be considered a badge of honour.

Sticking with Giant Rats, you can also get this set which contains two additional vermin for you to use when hunting down your prey in the warren-like structures of the Underhive or on the wreckage-strewn dunes of the Wasteland.

Wasteland Giant Rats // Necromunda

As mentioned when we previewed these miniatures, they come with special rules so you can keep adding them back into your gang when they die. There are enough of these verminous beasts to go around. I would love to see a scenario played out using one of the Necromunda markets they released last year. Have the Gangers going about their daily lives when a swarm of these bursts out of the sewers. Suddenly, it becomes a last ditch attempt to get out alive before the other gangs!

Ash Wastes Nomads Chieftain

Not concerning themselves with the training of mutated beasts, there is also an Ash Wastes Nomads Chieftain up for pre-order this weekend armed with a Venom Caster.

Ash Waste Nomads Chieftain With Venom Caster // Necromunda

Almost one with the lands that they inhabit, the Chieftains that command the Nomads are almost supernatural in their skillset. This particular Chieftain, becoming one with the beasts that roam the wastes, comes armed with a venom caster which sprays toxic liquid at his foes. Even the toughest opponent will go down on the toxic spew from a weapon like this.

These kits are made in Forge World Resin and will be available to pre-order this weekend.

What do you make of these new additions to the Necromunda range?
