A desperate attempt by the remaining corsairs to rescue Taldeer unfortunately failed leaving him killed and yet another Raider taken prisoner.

Cool writeup and table. I agree with your feelings on this...it's definitely Necromunda in terms of ruleset, but the 'feel' is not there like it used to be. For players just looking to dip their feet in to the nostalgia of Necromunda us old timers have, it works since they can use their mountain of 40k minis, but without the ganger theme it doesn't seem to grab my attention when it comes to a campaign. :-/
In fact, a lot of the newer iterations of games GW has been putting out have this effect on me. Makes me miss the old ones more.
