Welcome to Boomtown

Welcome to Sector Nivarra — “Boomtown”

A Beginner-Friendly Necromunda Dominion Campaign

---

Introduction to Boomtown

Sector Nivarra was dead space for decades — a collapsed corridor of the hive choked in chemical mists, infested by Scavvies, scummers, and worse. No one in their right mind ventured past the breach gates… until recently.

A joint effort between the Water Guild, Promethium Guild, and Guild of Coin has turned ruin into opportunity. Rumors of forgotten resources and unstable archeotech stirred the Guilders into action. With heavy security, sanctioned reclaimator crews, and a few thousand creds in bribes to House Helmawr, they reopened the lower levels. What they found wasn’t pretty — but it was promising.

And so, Nivarra was born again — or reborn wrong.

Boomtown, as it’s now nicknamed by locals, is a frontier sprawl built atop rusted bones. Shanty towers grow from the shell of collapsed domes. Pipe lines moan with the surge of reclaimed gas and water. Smoke from forges and chem stills chokes the vents. It's a place of potential — and violence.

Gangs have come from across the Underhive and beyond to carve up this newly reclaimed sector. Some come seeking legitimacy. Others want to burn it all down.

Why Boomtown?

This campaign is built to be beginner-friendly, open to both new and experienced players. If you're new to Necromunda, this is your chance to grow a gang from the dirt up. If you're a veteran, Boomtown is your opportunity to shape the fate of a lawless sector and test your cunning against eager upstarts.

Each “campaign week” will span two real-time weeks, giving you more time to schedule matches and engage with the narrative at your own pace. Friday nights will feature special scenarios to earn creds and more. But matches can be played whenever you and your opponent can meet.

Boomtown's Status Quo: Fragile

As of Cycle One, no House holds dominance. The Guilders maintain a tenuous peace in central Nivarra from their Palanite Bastion, but even that is more threat than control. Outside their walls, the gangs rule.

Some gangs arrive under contract, acting as muscle for the Guilds or proxy enforcers for noble Houses. Others are outlaws, cast-offs, or cults hiding behind the chaos. The Palanites walk a tightrope between containment and catastrophe.

This is a Dominion campaign — players will battle for control of territories, credits, and reputation. Every victory pushes your gang higher. Every loss risks weakening your grip. The campaign structure offers room for dramatic comebacks, grudges, alliances, and backstabbing aplenty.

What to Expect in Play

Campaign Territory Map (Sector Nivarra):

The sector is divided into 34 zones. You’ll start with a Settlement and earn more territories by winning games or completing special narrative scenarios. Every territory has a gameplay effect — ranging from income to more special benefits and risks.

Flexible Pairing and Game Scheduling:

Use the campaign’s Discord subchannel to arrange games. Each cycle is two real-life weeks long, so there's no rush — just keep the action steady. New players can ask for training games or team up for narrative objectives.

Tactical Cards and Restrictions:

To level the field, we’re limiting tactics cards to prebuilt 16 card decks.

Arbiter Support and Events:

The campaign is fully moderated. We’ll host bonus scenarios, narrative events, and random sector conditions. Want to burn down a rival’s toll crossing? Take on a bounty? Discover something beneath the sector? Just ask the Arbiter.

New to Necromunda? You’re in the Right Place.

Boomtown is being run with beginners in mind. If you’ve never played before, or only dabbled, this is your opportunity to learn alongside others. Our Discord is active and helpful. Our store’s terrain is plentiful. We’re here to teach — and to make sure every gang has a path to glory (or infamy).

You don’t need to be a master of every rule. You just need to bring your gang, your dice, and your ambition.

Final Word

Boomtown won’t stay quiet for long. Already, the air’s thick with chem stink and ambition. Deals are being made. Knives are being sharpened. What you make of Sector Nivarra is up to you — but remember, in the Underhive, power is taken, not given.

Stake your claim. Build your legacy. Or get buried with the rest.

Welcome to Sector Nivarra — where the hive never sleeps and only the ruthless thrive.

Let the campaign begin.
