One of my friends is an incredibly high roller and on average, each turn I annihilate half his 20 man squads and thenonly two fail we'll be back. Also with Gauss rules he almost always instant wounds my models. Plus he rolls fives or sixs everytime he moves. :(

So you are saying that the Necron codex is broken because your friend seems to be able to break the laws of probability?

Do you even realize how stupid that sounds?

This picture sums up the current discussion:

I'd like to assume after BA that they're gonna drop hints about a new Army book/models for either DE, Necrons, or WH/DH combo codex.
Seems pretty logical to me.

Also if they wanted to fill the gap between 40k releases they could always get off their ass and release some updated plastic models for units in armies they no longer carry or are a pain in the ass to collect. Armies like Dark Elves, Dwarves, High Elves, different IG infantry (Plastic Valhallans, Tallarn, etc.) and countless other random units converted for plastic would be groovy.

The co-owner of my FLGS overheard me and some friends discussing what the next codex would be after BA and he flat out said Necrons. Now I'm trying to keep myself from believing it but he has been right about every other update before even actual info has been released...crossing fingers

nothing new that people don't already know

no see he uses his ctan and monolith as a shield for his nice meat looking phase out warriors and while the enemies try to eat them out he rapid fires them with gauss he also uses his scarabs and destroyer lord to run scouts out of the table

you need to see all of his necron vids to understand the steps hes using to win

right....like before. Nothing dazzling or new people haven't done already. 8 years of a codex, you develop quite the playbook of ideas on tactics.

thats why you lose your games period you need listen carefully and the way i see people playing necrons are that i see them getting raped and this guy hasnt been raped in his games so you probably dont see the amazing genius but i can so if you're always complaining about necrons need to be updated update yourself

Eh I win as much as I lose. I have my tactics, often they work, some times things come up and unable to re-deploy enough in time to stem a tide. Necrons can be viable just require thought. An update would bring them back in the fold of the powerhouses but for now, I'm content with causing my own brand of havoc on the board.

Beware of the Troll.

The long drawn-out "stream-of-thought" sentences, with total disregard for punctuation and capitals, are usually a sure sign of a lesser mind.

Just ignore.

Lol oh I knew it was a troll from the start, IE him stating no Necron update in a rumor page filled with hopes and dreams. Sometimes I just like to see what kind of nonsense they can spew before they scurry off.

I will admit tho, on that guy's page the whole 'moving downed models forward' via coherency could help alot in gaining some scratches of ground, getting that extra shot in

Ok I am going to say to all the trolls that are trying to start something, "stop it is not needed."

Now back on topic. I was going to play Necrons when I got started but the fact is that the age of the codex kept me away. It as it stand now a good dex in the right hands, and with a new dex experienced Necrons players will be a force to be hold and it will also bring new players.

the dark eldar codex is coming definately. black templars is incorrect like witch hunters and daemonhunters it will fade into the background. the necron codex now on this ive heard nothing but its about time that both dark eldar and necrons have an updae dont you think?

*sigh*

Well said!
