Der Bestienmeister streift durch die Unterwelt der Makropolen Necromundas und bringt auch ein paar seiner animalischen Begleiter mit.

The Beastmasters of Necromunda Return With a Big Rat Problem

We’ve all been there – you want some cute critters around to cheer up your dreary gang stronghold, but the giant millisaurs keep digging holes in the garden and the ripperjacks are just nightmare fuel. What you need is something that combines cuddly charm with the vicious killing edge of an average Necromundan – something like a giant, two-headed rat.

Twisted by millennia of exposure to Necromunda’s shockingly poor environmental record and sporting teeth that can gnaw through bones, a Wasteland Giant Rat is a handful even for an experienced Outland Beastmaster. Unlike their diminutive kin, used by House Cawdor to deliver explosive surprises, these hulking rodents are tenacious fighters in their own right.

Though they don’t have the damage output of the ripperjack or the infiltrating skills of the millisaur, the humble (but humongous) rat is half the cost of either. Even if your pet gets exterminated in battle, you can replace it for free thanks to a handy ability called – we’re not making this up – Never more than One Metre from a Rat. This makes them a great budget choice for adding extra bite to your gang, and the Dodge skill helps to keep them – and their Beastmaster – around longer than you’d expect.

There are three individual Wasteland Giant Rat sculpts incoming to Necromunda – the multi-headed monstrosity that comes with a Beastmaster, and two more available in a booster pack for gangs who really want to drown their foes in a tide of rodents.

Load up your credits and hire an Outland Beastmaster – and some extra furry friends – when they come to pre-orders later this year.
