I have four questions

1) are triarch stalkers worth the points

2)are they op

3)what is their best weapon choice

4) when are they coming out

1) Yes

2) No

3) Depends on your list. Remember that they are a support vehicles, not assault vehicle. They are NOT used like dreadnaughts.

4) When they come out.

I think they are going to be a very useful tool in the Necron army, I'll be picking up a pair ( magnetizing them).

They have a good choice of weapons I'll likely be giving them the Particle Shredder most often though, as It's a nice plate I can drop every turn.

no Idea when they will be released, but I figure it'll be before then end of February.

But if you miss with the scatter, the units dont get twin linked :(

I find I miss more with a scatter vs 2 shots from the heat ray or the twin linked gauss cannon

My scatters usually not large enough for a large template to completely miss the squad I'm aiming for. The relay ability will be nice, especially if cover becomes Hit modifiers in 6th. ed and I might then change around what I use more often.

4.) February or March.

In concert with heavy destroyers, I think they're amazing.

This, at least until Preferred Enemy starts affecting shooting (hopefully in 6th). Then they'll have re-roll to-hits all of the time. Also, getting to re-roll to-hit with a Tachyon Arrow, assuming you shoot at the same target? Yes.

Yep, and put a chronometron cryptek with that lord that has the tachyon arrow and re-roll to pen if you wiff that

That would be the most expensive shot ever.

You do only get 1 of them, so best to make it count! Can use the chronometron many different ways so its not a complete waste of points.
