Looking through it I was amazed by the amount of errors throughout. Spelling, cut and paste etc.
I'm now a little more pleased with the Armageddon book now at least. At least it isn't as bad as that book.
Anyway, it looks a good game (I've never played before) especially as it seems to use the same rules as the previous 40K. Which were far more enjoyable than the current version.
I plan on getting a gang of Delaques (the baldies) and a buddy of mine is thinking of the enforcers.
Anyone got any useful input?

My group plays the previous version of Necromunda, and yes, it is a good game, much more fun (in my opinion  ) than WH40k. Alot more room for a more personal experience, growing your gangers, pounding the table when your best ganger gets shot by a lascannon, makes the saving throw, but falls off a 20'' ledge and goes splat(it happened to me  ). For example, our gang played the last game against spyrers, and got a guy captured. Now we have to play a scenario where we try to rescue him( or let him rot  ).
A very enjoyable system.
my 2cents,

I actually have the Necromunda box set and Outlanders, and I am very impressed. I don't get to play it very often as it isn't a very good drop and go game, and the friends that I have that will play these games don't like going very deep. 
I think a game like this would have been perfect back when I was stuck in the hellscape known as Buffalo, NY and was snowed in much of the winter. We played ALOT of AT/SM back in those days, but I know Necromunda would have been a huge hit back then with the variety of clown gangs.
That being said, I didn't think there would be anything worthwhile in the revised rulebook so I didn't pick it up (since I do have all the rules), but I am glad I haven't spent the money considering all the complaints.
BTW, does anyone use the Event Cards? I do, but I was wondering if anyone else did. . . I think my favorite is the Genestealer one. 
Can you dig it? LOL! Anyone remember 'The Warriors'?

Yep, excellent system, crappy new rulebook unfortunatly.. my trusty Goliaths are doing quite well at the moment in our current campaign... I'm just need to save enough for a nice shiny new autocannon....

My old Gaming Buddies got into it a few years ago and play every week. They are always doing conversion to their figures to represent the new upgrades and gear they buy for their gangers!
Sadly, I now live 1000 klicks away from them so there isnt much point me getting into it. But if I found a nearby league I'd be very interested...
