NECROMUNDA
BIONICS
The Underhive presents a weird mixture of advanced technology and primitive technical
improvisation. Conditions are rough and ready in the settlements, and those who live there are used
to making compromises.
To the wealthy inhabitants of the Spire bionic implants and transplants of living tissue are readily
available and affordable solutions to disease and injury. Beneath the Wall a few wealthy family
patriarchs may be able to afford such services. In the Underhive people cope as best they can, making
do with simple prosthetics and putting up with debilitating injuries. However, even in the Underhive
there are a few skilled bio-surgeons able to perform transplants for those who are able to pay the
price.
BIONIC EYE
A bionic eye is a technical device that replaces a
destroyed or damaged eye. The eye’s photosensitive
cells also offer protection against Photon Flash flares,
and enable the fighter to see through smoke.
If a fighter with a bionic eye suffers a further eye
injury then randomly determine which eye is
damaged – his real eye or his artificial eye. Any
damage to a bionic eye will destroy it.
Special Rules
Replacement. A bionic eye cancels out the effect of
one serious eye injury the fighter has sustained.
Photosensitive. The fighter may re-roll a failed save
against blinding by a Photon Flash flare (D6 against
Initiative). He may also see past and shoot through
smoke with a -1 to hit penalty.

BIONIC LEG
A bionic leg is very much stronger than an ordinary
leg and affords the fighter the opportunity of making
a devastating kick attack.
If a fighter with a bionic leg suffers another leg injury
randomly determine which leg is affected: the
fighter’s real leg or his bionic leg. If the bionic leg is
damaged it will be destroyed.
Special Rules
Replacement. A bionic leg cancels out the effect of
one serious leg injury the fighter has sustained.
Kick. The fighter gains +1 to his Attacks characteristic
in Hand-to-Hand combat. In addition, if the fighter
wins a hand-to-hand combat he can make a special
kick instead of resolving his normal hit/s. Note that a
fighter can only kick once and must give up all the
hits he would otherwise inflict to do so. A kick is
resolved at +2 to the fighter’s Strength and inflicts
D3 damage.
BIONIC ARM
A bionic arm is a particularly expensive device which
offers greatly amplified strength, grip and dexterity
compared to a normal arm.
If a fighter with a bionic arm suffers a further arm
injury randomly determine which arm is affected: the
fighter’s real arm or his bionic arm. Any damage to a
bionic arm will destroy it.
Special Rules
Replacement. A bionic arm cancels out the effect of
one serious arm injury the fighter has sustained.
Characteristic Bonus. The fighter receives a +1
Strength bonus on his own strength when fighting in
hand-to-hand combat with weapons in this arm or
when throwing grenades. He also receives a +1
Initiative bonus when fighting hand-to-hand combat.
