I saw a leaked copy of the rules for them that thar game (and the 'expansion' for other races to join the fray). A brief readthrough makes it look like a near copy-paste of Necromunda. Mind you, that's not a bad thing, as Necromunda (at least v2 with some more balanced skills) was a really fun game.
Plus, I can pull out the Nids for it after a fashion, which is kinda cool. Anyone else intrigued by this little box?

Actually got lucky and picked up my copy from the Dojo yesterday! (Didn't pre-order or anything, just went on a whim and they had 3 copies sitting there)
Anyway, working my way through the rules now, since I never played Necromunda, and I'm excited to try this game out.

Yeah we should set up a day to do a mini campaign or something. From the battle reports I saw, games could take less than 30 min each

I would be all about this. I never played Necromunda but I did play a TON of mordheim. And if there is a way for me to play xenos too, all the better.

I'm surprised at the lack of Genestealers, especially as they were included (in a very limited way) with the original Cult rules. Would have been great to be able to have them be a terror... ah well. I'm interested to see how Warriors do in this style of game.

Of course you can -_-
I think an alpha leading a small pack of 'new-borns' would be a good starting point, and I like the idea of a Ravener burrowing up ahead of the main force... risky, but kind of like sending in an Eversor blender-man and just seeing what happens.
T4 and W3 will actually be pretty awesome, though.

My old necromunda gang would probably be a fine fit for a Cult list as well... or an actual gang acting like on of the IG factions. Who knows. Choices choices.

Hey guys I wrote a list, because of course I did...
Tyranid Alpha - 375
Lashwhip/Bonesword
Adrenal Glands
Extended Carapace
Tyranid Gun-Beast - 405
Venom Cannon
Extended Carapace
Tyranid New-Spawn - 220
Deathspitter
Nice clean 1000 on the nose. Really hoping no one dies, because obviously there's a per-model investment.
I may change my mind and give the alpha a gun, as BS 4 is a hard thing to waste (especially when you have only 3 models shooting).
Cool. Already second-guessing myself. GG guys.
