There are several companies doing more traditional Necromunda style with towers and gantries.  I much prefer that to the more 3d dungeon crawl style seen above. Specifically, I really like the less skully and somewhat more colorful style of 90s Necromunda.

For inspiration and instruction in that style my go to is still Necromundicon http://ironhands.com/

I was super tempted to pre-order the upcoming Ash wastes set as the miniatures look great and I (used to) like and play the game a decade or two ago and am open to picking it up again.

The price tag of $300 I saw online before release gave me pause, but now I see that was the US price and it's AUD$475 pre-order at the local GW. I just can't justify that price tag for 20 infantry, 4 flea-riders and 2 dune buggy thingies plus terrain and rules etc.

In a way I'm glad it is so expensive as I ended up caving on the Octarius Kill Team, set (but got a metal measurer which will make a fine grave good to confuse future archaeologists for the pre-order) but this is just waaaaaaaaaaay too much for what it is. Happy to leave it there and maybe see if there are any 'rage quits' sets for sale in the months to come.
