Following up the Hive Secundus boxed set, The Book of Desolation gives us the rules for Spyrer Teams, Malstrain corrupted gangs, Malstrain Broods and a full campaign system for the Underhells! Accompanied by a slew of new plastic kits as well; this bottle-episode of Necromunda is now supported by this 110 page rulebook.
Thanks to GW for the copy of the Book and Boxes to review.

Question for you Ash buddy: Does the Hive secondus box book have something more that you don't have in this new desolation book?
Finally the Malcadon actually gets a ccw hehe can't wait for the book.
Spyrers always started overpowered at the start of a campaign but every one I've seen in one gets outmatched by gangs as they could never get extras. Will be interesting to see how it goes.
So the Malstrain and infected Malstrain gangs are confined in the Underhells, but Spyrers, Spyrer-led house gangs and the Ferrymen can show up in a normal Necromunda campaign?
I'm so excited about this one. I've been encouraging people to treat books for this like a role playing game. Use what you want, ignore the rest. It's neat to see them encouraging that approach.
Spyrer-Haera and the malstrain wyrd thingy have had models shown on Warhammer Community.
Regarding future campaign settings, GW have hinted at Eye of Selene (the space station). There's flavour text in a lot of the gang books.
I don't like the look of this particular supplement – never a fan of Spire Hunters – but I do like how GW is supporting Necromunda. It's more akin to Battletech or AD&D than the usual plodding cycle of GW releases (Buy core set. Buy codex. Buy army. Buy new edition) which exhausted my interest in 40K. They should do more of this format.
look forward to watching, got mine on preorder.
Definitely turning a Yeld into Necromundan Batman. Ckeaning the streets of the quarantine zone
