We’re building a new set of tools for the Necromunda community.

Gyrinx is an application that will allow you build, develop and track gangs and campaigns for the Games Workshop game Necromunda. We're launching Alpha release for trusted testers in the first few months of 2025, and hope to fully launch later this year.

We’re a small team of Necromunda fans: Louis (aka Goonhammer’s Manofwaaagh), Simon (aka 3_ogryns_in_a_trenchcoat, creator of Second Best Guides), and Tom (our resident engineseer).

In short: yes. Like many members of the Necromunda playing community, we’ve relied heavily upon YakTribe’s tools for gang management in the past.

But the website’s content library is increasingly out of date, making it difficult for players who want to use newer rule sets. So we decided to do our own thing.

Our plan is for Gyrinx to offer the same brilliant functions YakTribe does — and much more.

We’re excited to share Gyrinx with you as soon as we can. You can reserve a spot and get early access by joining the waiting list.

Right now our costs are low, but we expect them to ramp up and would highly appreciate any support you can offer.

We’re running a Patreon here. Backers can get unique badges on their profiles, and behind-the-scenes updates on the project — as well as our eternal thanks.

Currently our costs look like this:

• Google Workspace Business Starter
  £12 per month (2 accounts)
  Used for project-related email (e.g. hello@gyrinx.app), identity management for Google Cloud Platform and project planning documents.
• Google Cloud Platform
  Around £40-£50 per month
  CloudSQL, Networking, Artifact Registry, Cloud Run, Compute Engine.
• Domain Names
  £4.50 per month
  We have gyrinx.app and gyrinx.com, and use the former. Both renew at around £55 annually.

Just imagine you never saw the word “Pulverise”.
