064 - New Necromunda?

What's this new game that has been announced? A new Necromunda? Heck no!
Games Workshop's new skirmish game Shadow War: Armageddon has been announced on the Warhammer Community site here.
From the press release it seems to be set in Hive Acheron during the third war for Armageddon. Games Workshop says it is based on the old Necromunda ruleset however it looks very much like Kill Team to me. There seems to be alot of factions and squads you can use as "gangs". 
One of the potential factions is Imperial Guard. Luckily I have a few Cadians that I got off Ebay in a start collecting box.


A few are on sprue and some are assembled but I think I can have a go at a decent squad with bags of personality. 
Games Workshop wants a slice of the skirmish level pie but this new game looks quite cool and I can see myself having a go with it. Even if that means just building a couple of squads and maybe an INQ28 style warband. Either way this could be a small side project that will hopefully break up painting marines all the time!
