Changelog

Below is a reverse-chronological, condensed list of updates to Gyrinx since we entered public beta in July 2025.

To receive intermittent alerts with the latest changes,  sign up to our Discord here. Updates come via the Announcements channel.

2026-07-05: ‘Classic’ cards, Tools of the Trade and notifications

New: 

  • Classic cards: You asked, we answered! Gyrinx now offers a “classic” option for printed fighter cards, including grimier visuals and useful features for taking notes on the tabletop. When printing your gangs select ‘Classic cards’ to access this option. Plus, they even show fighter pictures (which can be added via a fighter’s “Lore” tab).

  • Tools of the Trade: Direct support for Equipment Sets is here! Fighters with Tools of the Trade can now define and select different sets of equipment. Hit the icon in the top-right of their cards, or go to the dropdown menu on a fighter’s card and click “Equipment Sets” to get started. Your gang rating and printouts will reflect whichever sets you have selected.
  • Notifications: Gyrinx now supports on-site notifications. For now, we’ll use these sparingly for updates and service information, but in time we’ll add more features for players and arbitrators!

Fixed:

  • We're fixing some rare long-standing cost-calculation bugs in Gyrinx. As a result, some existing gangs will have their rating corrected, it may go up or down, to match what their fighters and equipment actually cost. We'll send a notification if one of your gangs is affected, so you can see exactly which changed.

2026-07-01: Venator skills and UI tweaks 

New:

  • Venator gang-wide skill choice support You can now select and rank four different skill trees for your Venator gangs to access. You’ll be prompted to pick your skills at gang creation. You can edit these choices, or add them to an existing gang from the gang’s page by hitting Edit, then the Manage skill trees option.
  • Mobile UI tweaks We’ve made some tweaks to the header UI for lists on mobile to make them cleaner and easier to read.

Fixed:

  • Some text formatting issues in our Help centre have been cleared up.
  • Various bits of code bloat have been de-Nurgled.

2026-06-07: Patreon badges, gang icons, stars and pins

    • Pack owners can now attach PDF and image files to their packs.

  • Empty pack categories are now hidden from visitors.
  • Content pack Rules have been renamed to Special Rules.

2026-05-18: Custom House Rules, Wyrd Powers, Gang Attributes and more Special Ammo options

New:

  • Your House Rules, Automatically: Does your group think Balefire Throwers ought to be D1? Are you determined to buff Greenhorns? Sick of Escher Queens having weirdly bad intelligence?
    • Gyrinx now supports house rule customisation! With a single content pack, you can modify the default stats and rules of fighters, vehicles, weapons and equipment.
    • Arbitrators can share these house rules with every player in their campaign and make sure everyone has the same rules.

    • You can now create custom Special Ammo for existing weapons.
  • Even more flexibility for custom content:
    • Custom weapons and Equipment now have a Modifiers tab where you can apply mods, skill additions, and special-rules directly to a piece of equipment

Fixed:

  • A rare bug affecting gang value after fighter death (RIP) has been fixed
  • The UX for creating content packs has been streamlined

2026-04-30: Custom vehicles, pets and weapon accessories

New:

  • Supercharged content packs!
    • We’ve added new custom content support as part of the Content Packs system:

2026-04-12: Custom content

New:

  • We’ve launched Content Packs, our system for adding and sharing custom content for your Gyrinx lists, gangs and campaigns. Hit “Customisation” at the top of the site to get building.

2025-08-28: Big improvements to printing and performance

New:

  • You should find Gyrinx is generally snappier — there’s still some work to be done on this front, but hopefully the Great Outcast Lag is well behind us.
  • On printing, we’ve made various tweaks to make cards fit better in landscape and portrait layouts. As part of this, we’ve tried to hide extraneous rows on fighter cards when in a print view — so no more printing that your fighter has no skills. This has freed up space for us to make the text bigger and clearer in other areas. If you find your cards are spilling over, try tweaking the scale settings a bit in your computer’s print dialogue box.

2025-08-17: Generic House Agents added

New:

  • All the generic House Agent profiles have now been added
  • Profiles are named as P1, P2 etc, following the order they appear in the relevant book

New:

  • Full support for Outcast gangs has landed. You can find out more here: https://gyrinx.app/help/outcasts/
    • — Outcasts leaders and champions can now take Archetypes to determine their skill set access.
    • — Outcast gangs can also choose an Outcast Affiliation, which determines the gang’s equipment access.
  • We’ve also added support for various types of special gang types (like Chaos Corrupted or Crusading)
  • Other stuff
    • House gang vehicles should now see their special equipment lists (from Necromunda Apocrypha).
    • You can now edit ammo types on owned weapons.

2025-08-11: Changes since last update

New:

    • You can now edit weapon assignment to give them special ammo
    • We now have an equipment list expansion system for dynamic availability rules, to support Outcasts and similar Necromunda fun
  • Performance Optimisations

  • Skills & Powers
    • Default skills are now editable
    • Show Restricted toggle for skills and psyker powers
  • Weapon Profile Expansions
    • Equipment list expansions now support weapon profiles with cost overrides, allowing for conditional special ammo availability based on gang attributes and fighter categories.

2025-08-04: Changes since last update

    • Different "fighter" types (vehicles) now display appropriate terminology throughout the interface.
    • Vehicles show "damage" instead of "injuries" and use context-specific terms.
  • Print Configuration System
    • Create custom print layouts for your gangs/lists.
    • Choose which cards to include, select specific fighters
    • Save multiple configurations for different purposes.
  • Enhanced Equipment Access
    • Houses with "can buy any" permission (i.e. Venators) can now access both their equipment list and trading post items.
    • Improved UI for weapon accessories with better filtering and search.
  • XP Outside Campaigns
    • Experience points and advancements now work in non-campaign games, giving more flexibility for narrative play. This is part of "skirmish mode" support.

    • Print button moved to main UI
    • Better handling of captured fighters

2025-08-06: Unborn Goliath skill access

New:

  • Unborn fighters can now choose additional Primary skill sets, in line with the Outsider rule.

2025-08-01: Special rule overrides

New:

  • Gyrinx now supports manually editing fighters’ special rules. Go a fighter’s card, and click the Edit rules option next to their Rules.
  • Any fighter that gains the Psyker, Non-sanctioned psyker or sanctioned psyker rule automatically gains access to Wyrd powers. So if you want to turn an unusual fighter Wyrd, this is a helpful workaround.

2025-07-31: Spyrer weapon glitches and and Tech skill support

New:

  • Spyrer weapon glitches
    • Some Spyrer rig glitches place a negative modifier on the injured fighter’s weapons.
    • We’ve implemented these via a set of Spyrer-specific weapon accessories that debuff the weapon they are attached to.
    • After determining which weapon is damaged, you can access them by going to the fighter’s Add or edit weapons screen, then click Accessories on the weapon you want to modify.
  • Tech skill weapon modifications
    • Two Tech skills (Weaponsmith and Gadgeteer) add and/or remove traits from weapons.
    • We’ve implemented these via a set of hidden weapon accessories.
    • To access them, go to the fighter’s Add or edit weapons screen, then click Accessories on the weapon you want to modify, and untick Only Equipment List. You should then be able to see options named Weaponsmith (X) and Gadgeteer (X). Add the relevant ones, and it will modify your weapons accordingly.
    • Please note BUG: If you have Weaponsmith (add Plentiful) and a Gadgeteer (X) option on the same weapon, Plentiful will currently remain visible. We’d generally recommend simply removing Weaponsmith (add Plentiful) in this situation. We will figure out the twisted machine code needed to fix this down the line.

2025-07-25: Vehicle support added

New:

  • Support for vehicles added. We’ve explained the basics in this help article: https://gyrinx.app/help/vehicles/
  • You can now gain XP and advancements on lists that are outside of campaigns.

2025-07-22: Master-crafted weapons

New:

  • Gyrinx now supports master-crafting weapons, with dynamic pricing based on the weapon’s cost.
  • Master-crafting is treated as an accessory. So go to a fighter’s add/edit weapon view and select “accessories” under one of their weapons to see it
  • Master-crafted will show a cost of 25% of the weapon’s cost, round up to the nearest 5 creds.
  • If you need to workaround the cost (for instance if you master-crafted upgrade is free via a Gun Smyth), the way to do it is to use the dropdown next to the “accessories” button and manually set the cost of the whole weapon. We’ll look at the possibility of accessory-by-accessory cost overrides in the future.
  • Some fighters have master-crafted weapon on their lists. We are letting these stay, because in at least one case (Cawdor melee weapons), the Master-crafted version is cheaper than the standard 25% formula. We think maintaining them offers the simplest support.

2025-07-18: Ferrymen and generic crews added

New:

  • Ferrymen now supported
    • Regular ferrymen crews can be added. They are grouped under “Abyssal Ferrymen” in the fighter selection drop-down.
    • Generic Rig-hands are coded by movement (M3, M4, M5), whereas generic Skippers are coded by the order they appear on Desolation (P1, P2, P3), the latter is due to indistinct early stats.
    • The “dramatis personae” ferrymen are also in: remember that both sets have a rule that lets you hire the partner at a discount: you can use the cost override box pre- or post-hiring to reflect this.
    • All the skipper variants have access to an “Enclave” option that lets them select an Enclave and gain its rules. Nb we can’t yet set the pre-determined enclaves that the DP ferrymen have, we’ll work on this.
    • Ferryman Steersman rules are in, but they don’t yet have their rigs.
  • Generic crews added
    • Scum Racer, Guild of Coin Haulier and Ferryman Steersman profiles have all been added.

2025-07-09: Separate tabs for notes and lore on fighter cards

New:

  • Fighter cards now have separate “Info” and “Lore” tabs, replacing the “Notes” tab.

2025-07-06: Alliance fighters added

New:

  • All of the Alliance delegation profiles have now been ingested and are available to use!
  • They all have the Book of the Outcast elevated delegation costs by default, but you can override these to zero if you want to use them as delegates from campaign allies.

2025-07-05: Public beta launch.
  • Gyrinx has launched into public beta.
