Special Territories (Necromunda 2017)

Special Territories

Special Territories are locations, facilities, contracts, or even entire settlements that provide specific advantages to the gang that controls them. However, other gangs are always eager to push the current gang that holds them off and claim such tasty resources for themselves...or pillage them for a one-time windfall.

Usually, gangs take specific Special Territories by force from the roster of another gang which they have defeated in battle. However, when a gang gains a Special Territory randomly the controlling player rolls on the table below to determine which Special Territory they gain:

Territories

Territory

Turf: The gang controls an area or resource within the underhive that allows the gang to take the Work the Turf Post-Battle Action. Having multiple Turf Territories provides a bonus to the outcome of that action.

Turf: If the gang takes a Work the Turf Post-Battle Action, add 1 to the roll per Turf.

Stronghold: The gang controls a reinforced and highly defensible location. If this territory would be lost, stolen, or destroyed the controlling player may roll a D6; on a 4+ the gang retains the Stronghold and its corresponding Territory Size. Additionally, a gang gains D3 Reputation when this territory is added to their roster and loses D3 Reputation if it is removed from their roster.

Stronghold: Gain D3 Reputation when Stronghold added, lose D3 Reputation when removed. Roll D6 if Stronghold would be lost / stolen / destroyed; 4+ it is not lost / stolen destroyed.
