When did the Ghost Ark get 4HP, where can I find it, and are there any other changes to the necron army that isn't listed in the Codex?

The HPs on the Ghost Ark are indeed listed in the current codex. If you are looking at it's entry and do not see it in its profile, I suspect you have the last edition codex.

Wow....I have the current codex, and assumed it only had 3. Woooooow I'm an idiot.

Consider the Quantom Shield that adds 2 to armor and it makes it even more annoying....

And then add to that it's living metal rule which gives it IWND as well...and two banks of gauss arrays...and independent targeting...
How can anyone not love Ghost Arks?

Only heavy and super heavy vehicles gain IWND from living metal. Ghost Arks are neither.

Yeah, that seems to be a common misconception.
Much like how Reanimation Protocols are not-FNP, Living Metal is not-IWND

Blame GW for making the rules so similar.

Don't forget jink and the fact that the silly open topped rules allow you to have 10 guys climb out to the very front millimeter of the vehicle and hang all over each other while shooting at normal BS even while the vehicle is jinking for its life.

I didn't think open topped shooting rules were dumb until, at an event, I had an ark full of warriors shoot one of my hiding wounded characters from around a building by drawing LOS from the very back of the tail under the pilot seat, way away from the troop bay.

Like they seriously all 10 climbed down there Spider-Man style and starting shooting at a toe. Super dumb.
