Well, I poked around the Necromunda forums as per suggestion. I don't really think that my Marines would necessarily work all that well. They're an extremely heavily-armed lot. Going through my minis it appears that I have a devastator squad, a terminator squad with all the trimmings, a dreadnought, a commander with two power-fists, and Commisar Yarrick. This looks like a great deal of anti-armor capability, which isn't really appropriate in Necro, eh?
It looks to me, based on my limited reading, that the Necromunda game mechanics are very similar to 40K 2nd edition. Oh, I should just stop. Stop, Ethan, stop! Just because you have the miniatures doesn't mean you need to play the game! Stooooooooooooop!

I just wish that GW would get rid of the IGO-UGO turn system. At the moment Epic is their ONLY system not using it.

"Activation" is the way to go ! We have been using it since we incorporated it in SM1 ! E:A is a landmark for G/W !

Hi!
GW's decision to use such a mechanic would have been more of an impact hadnt they'd been the last ones in the gaming universe to adopt it....
..great minis, but in the design department, much behind the curve as compared to other companies...

You got that right (!) or, in other words ... "Indeed" ...
