NTSFW, we cuss a lot in this one.

The Junkticrons return! Reecius' busts out the nearly completed bitz bin Necrons and takes them out against Frankie's nasty Daemon list and Keno's equally nasty (in more ways than one) "Nipples and Gold!" Slaneesh CSM and IG army!

Can you use a smash attack on the GUO when he fails his MSS role?

18" away.. Why were you so scared of a GuO that moves 6" a turn w/ terrain in the way?

Good games, JankyCrons look quite fun.

Cool looking necrons.

That was pretty impressive ignoring 3 of the "best" flyers in the game during the second game.

Pretty sweet necron army for only $50 of broken bitz.

All the necron player is doing is crying every turn

@Darth

I don't know if you can, but I suppose so, they do say you can use whatever extra abilities they have. I hadn't considered that.

@Hippesthippo

I misspoke, I was trying to get more than 18" away, I was only about 13" away with the flubbed roll. He was easily within charge range.

@Ansacs & Vet.Sarge Ryokai

Thanks! Yeah, I am really happy with how they are coming out, you should have seen what they looked like when they got to us, it was literally a pile of broken bits.

@Dalymiddleboro

I was crying for all of the starving children in Africa.

necron resiliency in game 2 was pretty nice So many guys got back up. Daemons still seem super strong. Would love to see Frankie's Daemons vs your Eldar !

Yeah, Cron troops look weak on paper but their power comes from being able to take down any vehicle in the game with glancing hits and from getting back up with LD10. They are deceptively good.

And we will definitely have top run the Daemons against the Eldar, that is a match up that I think a lot of folks will want to see. So far, my Eldar have only 2 losses, one of which was to Daemons who pretty much schooled me! haha

Another awesome set of reports, Reece!

Bad luck in the first match. But take heart, every time Francois beats you just remember what they say about the right ear.

Very impressive necron army, more so considering you spent so little.

Can't wait for more!

Great battle rep, It was good to see your punching bag get a win!

@Sheokronath

Yeah, I had old Francoise on the ropes for a minute, but he bounced back. Oh well, that is the game we play! It was fun all the same.

@Wabba

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it! And yeah, the Crons do win every once in a while, haha, definitely not the craziest list, though.

I also have an ultra-competitive *cough, cough....right* necron list I call my Fun-crons.

It consists of:

Overlord
Destroyer Lord
1x Veil-tek

15x Warriors
5x Warriors in Night Scythe
10x Tesla Immortals

3x Heavy Destroyers
6x Wraiths

Annihilation Barge
Doom Scythe
Monolith


Perhaps one of these days, I will take them out for a game againt Team 0 Comp.

Great fun game!

@Jim

That would be good fun! Crons are a lot of fun to play if you take a funky combo list. Mine isn't that competitive but I really enjoy playing them.

@Skari

Actually, I don't think they can now that you mention it. It is weird, the book says "even if they arrive by deepstrike" but doesn't actually list that as a rule they have. If so, I goofed for sure.

And oh well that I lost, it's all good. I enjoy the challenge of playing the army.

Baiting those seekers into the corner made this loss still a win IMO

Yeah, stupid Enfeeble!! Haha, that saved Frankie's bacon but hey, he used it wisely. I thought I had him!
