I was never worried about there (initially) being no Juve miniatures. Because of the slight size increase I’m just going to use my existing (old) Gangers as Juves because they are slightly smaller.
N17 New official Necromunda in 2017 !

I had to miss half of it because of this silly thing they call work. What did he say exactly?Andy on Warhammer TV just gave a shout out to YakTribe
Also, did they say whether the weapon sprues and juve minis would be plastic or resin?
I was not worried but still wanted to know asap. Juve minis mean I won't need to convert them from the plastic gang box, which in turn means one box per gang might be enough after all.
Andy Hoare is the confirmed Kwisatz Haderach.
He was talking about great fan made content in the community.
Another good comment from him last week was "some people will make their own terrain, which is awesome".
Weapon sprue will be FW and resin. I think the same for juves but not 100%.
Weapon profiles will appear in the new books as they become available in some kit or other. He did take time to explain why they went this route.
Fairly sure he said bounty hunters and scum would be in the next book, presumably alongside the next gang to be released.
I think the Yaktribe reference was when he was talking about looking forward to seeing what new stuff the community can come up.
Some other bits and bobs not mentioned yet, from memory...
- A Lord of the Spire scenario is finished which might be in a White Dwarf.
- Talked about working on a scenario based on the fall of Hive Mortis where gangs have to escape from a flood of poxwalkers.
- Possible attack pets in future, such as a big cat for Escher.
- Rules for hangers on are done, but they're still figuring out what the models will be. Possibly both House specific scults, such as a giant butcher Goliath cook, and more generic ones like a Ratling cook.
- Hired gun rules will be in the next supplement.
- The female Goliath mentioned was something one of the sculptors has been playing around with in his free time, so may just be a one-off.
- Possible new leader models. Mentioned the Goliath Leader with the chainsaw hat at least.
- The Turf Wars supplement is just one type of campaign, there will be more.
- Looking to expand the Trading Post a lot. Possible chance of xeno-tech showing up in Outlanders.
- Finishing off House Gangs first by the end of next year, then Outlanders. Possibly adding new outlander gangs. Possibly won't see stuff like Ash Nomads for quite a while.

Sorry but I just have to ask. Did he actually say "this year" ? As in 2017? Or is it meant to be "within a year", i.e.up to November 2018?
3'x3' by the looks of it? It seems a bit low and, dare I say it... dull for a Necrumonda table.
Not sold on the animals idea, but there were scavvy dogs, yes? Came as a later release, and was a shock to me, I seem to remember, unless they were conversions.
And I know there was an ace confrontation miniature, not sure if released, that had a dog. Bounty hunter, I think. Jester hat. Barmy.

I love pets in RPGs so I am absolutely on board with that. As long as I can have an ocelot called Babou.
Well I've been looking at mutant doggies (chaos hounds) for a special raid the scrapyard scenario. It seems I might be able to use them again. Yipee
I just made a pathetic little noise and physically swooned!Correct.
He also confirmed they intend to add rules for basically every (imperial) weapon ever conceived.
Bliss...
Also "Necromunda is for humans, not orks or aliens"
Joy!
Okay I have seen some battle reports now and the Escher is starting to look like they are really bad against the Goliaths, they lost all the battles against the Goliaths, that seems very bad.
The only battle report where the Eschers had a big win was in WD, there might be others but I haven't seen those, might just be bad luck but for so many people seems strange.
