Necromunda: Arthromite Duneskuttlers Preview

Aus den Tiefen der Aschewüsten Necromundas kommen die Aschewüsten-Nomaden und manche bringen auch wilde Tiere mit.

Corral Some Creepy Crawlies With the Ash Wastes Nomad Herder and Arthromite Duneskuttler

With the arrival of the Outlander Beastmaster, tamed critters are all the rage on Necromunda right now. The Ash Wastes Nomads have cornered a portion of the market, forming a kinship with all sorts of bugs.

When they’re not in battle, the Ash Wastes Nomad Herder takes care of their super-sized insects, including the burrowing terrors known as Arthromite Duneskuttlers.

Unlike the Dustback Helamite cavalry, Duneskuttlers are vicious creatures that hunt for prey by burrowing into the treacherous sands of the Ash Wastes to ambush unwary passers-by.

When they feel vibrations from above, they launch out of the sands in a blur of carapace and claw, dragging their catch down below. Left to their own devices, these vermin are deadly enough, but under the lash of a Nomad Herder, they become insectile shock troops.

Nomad Herders are experts in the arts of insect husbandry, siccing their chitinous charges on unsuspecting foes with a subtle gesture of their chitinous blade.

Duneskuttlers make great hunting companions. Surviving in the deadly Ash Wastes has granted them a keen predatory instinct and a physiology that makes them Hard to Kill.

This tenacity and hardiness, coupled with a Herder’s Arthromite Whisperer skill, means an Ash Wastes Nomad War Party will be able to keep their Duneskuttler pet in the thick of the action for extended periods.

You’ll be able to add one of these scampering nasties and their handler to your Ash Waste Nomad gang soon.
