Hey fellow yaks

That time is here again, to organise and work out a date for the Melbourne Tribemeet and yours truly will stepping in to organise it. I'd like to give a big thank you to maxwellpower who ran the previous years' events. It was enjoyable and I had a lot of fun, even if I did lose most of my games.

All this will be dependent on the Covid-19 situation of course

I added a poll to find out which version people would rather play.

To explain the both option - a mini campaign for both versions and it would be player's choice as to which version they want to play

 

[ClockworkOrange]

Hi @Deecee I’ve sticked the thread if you need any other help from the mods let me know - the UK version should have a rules pack we can share when @MancInventor can be arsed to finish it!

 

[--JB--]

Put me on your list

 

[Cardinal Syn]

I would be interested in attending. Hopefully house of faith will be out by then and would be keen to play modern necromunda.

 

[sumpthing]

I'm keen as long as the borders are open

Currently leaning more towards the Queen's Birthday weekend (more time to plan), so they should be open by then.

 

[maxwellrpower]

I'll be in this, with any luck pretty much all the 'house of' releases will be out by then too. Are you thinking of doing this at House of War again?

Thinking of it, but if people want to go somewhere else I can do some research for what place are available around Melbourne. Maybe somewhere a little more central.

As far as house books I think we're only waiting on 2 more - Cawdor (Faith) & Delaque (Shadow)

 

[Spamuel]

Yeah buddy, in like stink on a Cawdor.

[Deecee]

Which would people prefer, a 2 day or 3 day event?

 

[Spamuel]

2 day preferably.

Working on the player's pack. Hope to have it finished by end of month.

But the basics are as follows:

• Necromunda Underhive (2018) rules will be used
• Gangs to start at 1100 credits. Chosen as normal
• Hired Guns and Hangers On allowed
• No Dramatis Personae (Special Characters to the uninitiated)
• Going to limit number of Enforcer Patrol allowed. This is to represent local patrols and that they aren't able to control things
