The Games Workshop designer who made Necromunda what it is today has developed the Fallout Factions Nuka-World skirmish game!
If you love the idea of Fallout from Modiphius but were never too into the tabletop game, this might just be perfect for you! James Hewitt, the former Games Workshop designer for titles like Necromunda, Adeptus Titanicus, and Blood Bowl 2016, has developed the new Fallout Factions Nuka-World skirmish game.
GW Designer Brings Necromunda to Fallout Faction Game
The new game is more streamlined than previous Fallout tabletop games and features smaller armies, making it closer to how Necromunda plays. The game is available for pre-order now and will be released in mid-May. We’ll check out the pre-orders, but also some about the mechanics of the game.
The video breaks down a game played as a one-off game in the video, but you can obviously play more of an RPG style. The game mechanics seem pretty simple, but not without intricacies. With James on board, we expect the game to keep growing in terms of weapons, factions, and playability. Each gang will have its own objectives (as not every group in Fallout needs the same things), and you don’t need to play consistent games with the same people (but we probably would still try). If you love Fallout and want a new skirmish game, this could be really fun!
Now, let’s check out some of the pre-order releases! Best of all, you can grab the PDF rules for free, so you can check out the rules before buying the game.
Fall Out Faction Nuka-World Pre-Orders
