A podcast about the game Necromunda, featuring gang warfare between the gangs occupying the cramped tunnels of a massive hive city. Set in the Warhammer 40,000 universe, Necromunda is a narrative focused game that lets you role-play as a gang leader and fight for dominance in campaigns pitting you against your friends' gangs.My goal is to introduce new players to the game and provide tips and tools for new and existing players alike.

Episode 5 - House of Blades Pt. 1

House Escher is the topic of this episode, from their background, to their relations to the other gangs, to their story telling potential, and even a book review of an Escher novel! I dispensed with most of the normal segments this week as they didn't necessarily fit with my goal of exploring house Escher from the perspective of story telling, which I think is important to establish *before* getting into how they play on the tabletop. Tune in next episode for a more practical discussion of playi...
