Ash Wastes Campaign

RAW ✔️ Source: Necromunda: Ash Wastes Rulebook

'Roads are the lifeblood of Necromunda, and trust me, they are soaked in the stuff!'
- Slate Merdena, House Orlock, Road Boss

Beyond the hives and their incessant industry, an endless war is being fought across the vast ash wastes. It is not a war of rival nations or opposing armies - though it can be just as bloody as one of these - rather, it is a war for the trade routes between the hives. Lord Helmawr cares not who controls these routes as long as the trade keeps flowing and Necromunda's staggering Imperial tithe is met. And so the Clan Houses vie for lucrative contracts and control of remote road networks to fill their coffers with more wealth. In some places this descends into open warfare as convoys of merchant rigs fend off mounted marauders as they attempt to get their goods to where they need to be. For a gang that can claim dominion over even a tiny piece of this great trade network the rewards can be staggering, and well worth the price paid in blood, bullets and lives.
