Yup. Was about to make a thread about the new video, but I figured I'd check here first. Looks like we have confirmation.

YES! It looks like they're keeping the hyper-order theme of the Necrons!

I am so hyped! ^.^

Yeah, only it's not so much of a surprise is it?

Oh, oh, oh! Cool vid!
Anyways, I've got a question regarding the Lycheguard with Dispersion Shields.
They grant a 4++ yeah? So, in order to be able to redirect shot with the shield, you'd have to take the 4++ instead of the 3+, resulting in a worse save, but with the chance of redirecting..?
Isn't that a bit cruel, choosing between a 3+ and a 4++ with redirection?

darn now I really cant wait untill the 29th

I really couldn't care less to be honest. We already knew the Necrons were coming, that GW has just said so in a really mysterious video doesn't really change anything IMHO.

We know. But now, Games Workshop employees at their storefronts can direct customers expressing an interest in Necrons to the site's "What's New?" and start building up hype.

Ya I think it will the eldar on 29th not the the Necrons. Like they will be hahaha trick you guys.

A bunch of people on internet forums know. The majority of the player base is now receiving hints.

That aside, that video has me absolutely STOKED for getting the codex, the new fluff seems to make sense with that one line.

Order. Unity. Obedience.
Profile picture, transfoooooorm!

I know! That's what makes me excited!
There was some talk earlier about the Necrons not being ordered, since they are bunch of independent kingdoms now, and that got me very worried.

That one line got rid of my fears.

This release will be epic!

I've got a new Title

I was reading through the equivalent thread on Warseer, and Bramgaunt was making a lot of references to some rules that will make more sense in 6th, like The Deathmarks, and Preferred Enemy on the Destroyers.

Pretty Cool!!!

I like that it is now official!

also like the Order. Unity. Obedience.

Makes sense why they dont like the warp with a slogan like that

Well, the teaser certainly did sound like it could be either. . and if you look at that symbol closely as it flashes:



It does look a lot like:

Thank you for that

Why Saturday? FFS. Launch it Friday and get people into the store at the weekend looking for juicy information.

Hell, even show a unit that hasn't been leaked...

Poorly played GW.

I hope they continue teasers throughout the week, but....it is GW

I wouldn't be too worried, as it mostly looks like the pseudo-ankh that the necrons have everywhere. It only really looks like the craftworld emblem if you've recently suffered a severe head injury.

If you go to the GW site, on their blog, they've released a Necron teaster trailer.

Here is best i could get of symbol

IIRC the dilapidated looking overlord guy has a symbol on his right thigh that looks something like that.

yeah I found that too. You're right, it does look more like a cron symbol.

How did you get a still? When I try it just becomes a video.

haha i paused it and took a screen shot!

Dun wurry, its kay.

lol I was kidding about Eldar. If it were Eldar, I would be having a fit. Alas, I have to wait until 6th Edition, methinks.

How about weapons which ignore armour?
Then you use your invun, and get the redirect as a bonus.

No, I think he wants to know that if you get hit by a weapon that DOESN'T ignore armor (like bolters), will he have to take the 4++ save to redirect.

I think you are still allowed to use the 3+ and redirect, since it says "saved wounds" and doesn't specify.

go look at games workshop there is a teaser video and its gotta be necrons i mean, well just watch ^^

@ChaosxVoid: Scroll up.

Yes, that's exactly what I wondered! And I hope you're right on the question too! ^^
