these booklets are absurdly expensive, especially so outside the USA and there is a ton of them. I wouldnt mind a black and white version for $15-20.

Great review sir! Awesome to see you back at it!

Thanks. I'll review anything if there's a free book involved.

On the survival rules. I'm interested in this book in how it can be applied to a Stargrave campaign, or rather a Necromunda campaign using Stargrave's rules. The whole theme of the campaign is about being disconnected from the wider Underhive, and having limited supplies. Its unfortunate then that these rules would need some modifying to fit that theme, and not be ready as is. There's probably ways to tweak the rules- like increasing attrition or the amount of supplies - though finding a way to do this that isn't too complex may be a struggle. :/

yay new vid!

Great review. Purchased in UK and cost me £13 must be import charges etc. Great idea regarding eating animals. Maybe house rule to treat like treasure and if get off table then replenishes supplies.

Oh, and the current edition of Necromunda is a mess if you're wondering. They wrote it as an RPG for the 2017 remake, but at some point were told to turn it into a skirmish game before the rules were released - which led to a lot of needlessly complex rules. The game then got another release in 2018, which took the 2017 rules, but the writers seemed to make assumptions on how things worked, so there's a lot of rules that are conflicting or just don't work as written. Which was then compounded in later supplements that carried on making assumptions. The current (2018) edition of Necromunda reads like nobody play tested it or proof read anything. With the amount of House Rules required to play a game I honestly can't see how it could be played competitively (its *very* easy to create overpowered gangs, leading players to either nerf their choices, or House Rule half their books/ wargear to not be as deadly - which is again a problem with the game having been written as an RPG. Its fine if a flamethrower sets a bunch of guys on fire in an RPG, not so much in a skirmish game where you can stick one on a Juve and have them put half the other player's gang out of action on turn one. Or take a Webgun, and one shot nearly every model in the game). ...So yeah, I'm trying to get my group to switch to Stargrave, despite having spent the money on all of the current edition's books - the game is just that bad to run as a player and game master.

Curious on the price. In the UK the book retails for £20 on the Osprey site and £15 on Amazon, so $5-10 cheaper. Though on Osprey's site it looks like all of the post Second Edition supplements have been £20 - so is this price increase in the United States specific to just this book, or have other Second Edition supplements also been $30?

AFAIK this is the first $30 book.

Let's add a mechanic but not fully support said mechanic. I'd probably just not use supply if I pick this one up.

It sounds like it has interesting concepts, but failed the landing. Especially since the animal corpse as food supply loot would be nice.

I feel like TNT does a much better job with campaign mechanics than Frostgrave.
