This is extremely likely.

I sincerely doubt this, because there is absolutely no reason not having that written in Codex Necrons already. No, changing Heavy special rule is highly unlikely...

Are you ever going to use Destroyers as an Assaulty unit?

Or do you mean like a last line of defence

Probably not, but does that mean they will never get assaulted?

Preferred enemy works in any close combats.

It was my thought that you could fire ordinance and defensive weapons on the same turn.

As our bodies are armoured with Adamantium, our souls are protected with our loyalty. As our bolters are charged with death for the Emperor's enemies, our thoughts are charged with his wisdom. As our ranks advance, so does our devotion, for are we not Marines? Are we not the chosen of the Emperor, his loyal servants unto death?

To admit defeat is to blaspheme against the Emperor.

Still, if they get assaulted, they are usually doomed. 1 attack each at WS4 S4, even with preferred enemy? Not good enough to justify its points cost.

Fluff-wise, Destroyers should have BS5 though...but that is not our topic.

As was said, that's incorrect.

I'm afraid your thought was wrong. Ordnance rules state "Not even defensive weapons!".

There are exceptions though (Lumbering Behemoth for LRBT for example).

Edit: Bah! rigeld2 got there first..

They have it because they can make close combat attacks.


Lol, close combat attacks.

You will never find destroyers in CC, at least when I field them
