Look MIJ, concentrated swoosh-in-a-box!
There was a fan-made Necromunda-style skirmish game year back called...Dark City? A quick google did not turn it up. I hate elves, and even I always thought it would make a pretty cool setting.

Re: Gangs of Commorragh
Yknow, some years ago I would've been salivating at the prospect. Now, I look at it and think:
Pros:
An all dark-Eldar game. Wow. Cool!
Card terrain in the box. Commorrite terrain, at that. Cool.
Gang progression. Necromunda style, perhaps?
Swoosh!
Cons:
Will likely be expensive (speculation, admittedly)
Contains a bunch of DE minis that I have no use for, as I already own tons of hellions and reavers
Another game neither I nor anyone else will actually play.
On balance, wow, but hmmm.

Wow. And then Corona happened. Just....crickets, all the way through to 2023...

Re: Gangs of Commorragh
They certainly are churning out these new entry level games at a fair rate.

Re: Gangs of Commorragh
Yeah, "some years ago" sums it up for me. I mean Genestealer Cults! Finally! But now, just more bits I'll maybe someday cobble some gribblies together with.me_in_japan wrote:Yknow, some years ago I would've been salivating at the prospect. Now, I look at it and think:

I read on the boards that there was a D.E racin' game in a WD a while back. Might as well pimp it and charge 100 bucks for it.
Next will be "Brew-House Bash"! You know it!
They do seem to have abandoned the strategy of 40K or nothing.

Re: Gangs of Commorragh
I watched a bit of the Warhammer TV stream about this game; it looks like quite an interesting set of rules. £35 ain't expensive, and I suspect there'll be an app along soon that'll sell you the rules if you already have a Dark Eldar force.
