I'm pretty sure I said that it can be tricky, didn't I?


Not uncommon is a double negative. Saying "not uncommon" is the same as saying "common."

You literally said, "It is common for an assault on wraiths to force them to make their pile in moves end up out of range of the rez orb."

If you meant to say, "This is a rare situation that could occur if a Necron play moves poorly" then I would have agreed.


Just to be nit-picky, "not uncommon" in English is generally used to add shades between "common" and "uncommon"/"rare", despite being a double negative

And now to be on topic: The tactica is awesome so far; a good friend of mine plays Necrons and this will be immensely helpful for him (or should I say, not unhelpful? ) Thanks for taking the time to write this up.
