The Book of Ruin: Trading Post Appendix
RAW ✔️ The Book of Ruin, p118
The following section contains an update to the Trading Post for Dominion campaigns, as presented in Necromunda: Gangs of the Underhive, included here to allow the gangs presented in this book, and others besides, to make use of certain items unique to this book in other types of campaign as well. The Trading Post represents the various markets, traders and caravans where gangs can barter for weapons and equipment. Where the House Equipment lists provide commonly used equipment for each House's gangs, the type of arms and armament that gangs will readily be able to lay their hands on, the Trading Post lets them expand their arsenal beyond the norm.
Note that some weapons and Wargear that are found on House Equipment lists do not appear here; these items are preciously guarded by each House, and are not available on the open market. Furthermore, some items are so intrinsically linked to a certain House that gangers of other Houses would be unwilling or even ashamed to use them even if they could get their hands on them. For example, some of the other Houses view House Van Saar's reliance upon energy-based weapons as a symptom of their inherent weakness, and so they shun las carbines in favour of more robust autoguns.
Also, note that some items are cheaper in the House Equipment lists, and that some items listed as Rare here are available in the House Equipment lists; this is intentional, representing the increased availability of those items to specific Houses. Where this is the case, the entry in the House Equipment list takes precedence over the entry shown here for that gang.
Weapons marked with an asterisk (*) take up the space of two weapons. If, for example, a fighter can carry three weapons, any weapon marked with an asterisk counts as two weapons of those three.
Weapon accessories marked with a dagger (†) may not be combined together on the same weapon. If one such accessory is purchased for a weapon, another may not be added.
