Re: New Necron fluff.
I'd love to know where people are getting their sauces, there is nothing on the games-workshop remotely mentioning Necrons; games day had nothing to say either, everything has been very hush hush.

Re: New Necron fluff.
I'm just seaching across the vastness of the net. There are places like beastsofwar.com and leaks from people who work there and such. It all gathers together into what we know.
There isnt a single place for it all yet.

Well at least we know they'll be coming soon. I wonder what they're going to do with immortals, considering currently you can get Pariahs which have the same weapon and an overpowered close combat weapon. Personally I think there weapons should be bigger and better, I mean they're double barreled and a warscythe has a single barrel. Maybe twin-linked? I don't know.

Re: New Necron fluff.
Phariahs seem to be gone utterly atm and Immortals are now seeming to be troop choices with upgrades to their guns rather then the single weapon they used to have. (of course you have seen the pics)
I'm hoping for twin-linked on the normal guns and some awsome anti-tank guns as upgrades. (pen capable ones rather then he glancing of a gauss gun)

Re: New Necron fluff.
I don't think Pariahs are going to be removed permanently just heavily nerfed, as in their war scythes becoming power weapons and the staff of light ignoring every armour save (a swap). Maybe Immortals will be that elite class that is always just a better version of the standard troops? Like Kabalite trueborn and Hekatrix Bloodbrides? They'll have better war gear and an extra attack but for all intents and purposes are the same.

Re: New Necron fluff.
Aye, thats the route they seem to be going down. Lynch Guard have replaced the Pariahs role as Lord bodyguard now so Pharahs are really only anti-psychers now. I doubt they will be seen that much in games (not that they were before because of the models).
Re: New Necron fluff.
Lynch guard? Never heard of them.

Re: New Necron fluff.
Woah that's weird, but how are beasts of war getting these pictures before Games Workshop have put them up? Surely the staff that are leaking these pictures are breaching some kind of contract.

Beasts of war had to take them down due to GW asking them to, but here they all are. All the new units

Re: New Necron fluff.
You know what, I'm not especially blown away by the models, they seem too bulky and over the top.

Re: New Necron fluff.
i assumed you had seen them. And I agree. Now we know more about the necron fluff the command bardge makes more sense but it still dosent look quite right if you know what I mean.
Re: New Necron fluff.
Deathmarks are okay, the rest look kinda crappy. They were better streamlined and snazzy looking. And deathmarks are only okay because of conversion potential, I like the helmets.
Re: New Necron fluff.
I agree those Deathmarks do look quite striking. But yes the models seem to be going the way of the tomb kings with the authentic Egyptian feel which I do not like. The vehicles just do not suit them.

Re: New Necron fluff.
Yup, which is annoying; there have always been similarities between the two armies but I never wanted Necron to be a shot to shot remake of the Tomb Kings but in space.

Re: New Necron fluff.
I'm happy the warriors will remain the same, they'be captured the look of the Necron perfectly on them.

Re: New Necron fluff.
Aye, I have to say that it was the warriors, destroyers, lord and Monlith that I wanted to stay the same due to the ammount i allready have and conversion ideas I have flowing in my head so I guess I lucked out there
Though I do have to say that the ghost ark is bigger then i thought it would be.

Re: New Necron fluff.
To be fair, I wouldn't be surprised if those shields on the Lychguard made them indestructible. Because to be fair, these days, with these codices, it's possible to make a wall of unkillable death for every army. Just like Eldrad w/ 10 Wraithguard or Draigo w/ 10 Paladins.
Also, with Spiritcurse, I like the Deathmarks but the rest look shit. can't wait to see the fucking stupid unbeatable strategies people come up with.

Re: New Necron fluff.
Now now, they could be hideously weak. The power of the war scythe may have completely possessed the writer, and blinded him in such a way that he believes the entire army is overpowered.
I just pray that they do not change the we'll be back rule, in fact I hope they just leave the warrior alone. Nothing needs to be changed about them.

Re: New Necron fluff.
Here here. The Warrior matches the image of the Necron perfectly as it is. Unified and fucking lethal in numbers. It dosent need any other rules or upgrades!
