To make a long story short I despise the new Necron codex, despite having over 12k worth of points of necrons, and was thinking about making some changes back to the old codex. Mainly going back to the old, not broken or overpowered, reanimation protocols, and wanted to know if there was any way that it could be thought of as me trying to abuse rules or something. For the record I am not ever going to use the new crypteks, formations, or any kind of res orb, I'm also not concerned with tournament play or the LGS not letting me. Just wanted to know if there is anyway it could be considered abusive or broken.

Thank you very much ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/636858/7612729.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/636858/7612729.page GMT Going back to the old reanimation protocols RP was kinda naff, to be honest, so...]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/636858/7612747.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/636858/7612747.page GMT Going back to the old reanimation protocols

That sort of is the point, one the major issues I have with the code is that necrons are absurdly tough which is not enjoyable for my opponents. Which to be honest is my primary concern

I take it then that no one can think of a way for it to be abusive, which is great should make it a lot easier to convince my opponent to play it that way

As players we dealt with ye-old 4+ FNP MEQ armies in 5th edition. It was sort of comparable to the new 'cron durability levels. And if you don't use the +1 RP formation(s?), then you basically just have a meq army with 5+ feel no pain (that can't be denied), right?

I don't have enough games unver my belt to say one way or the other whether I feel new RP are over the top, but I do have enough experience with the game to know that people tend to complain about every new book when it first comes out. Except orks. Poor orks. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/636858/7613254.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/636858/7613254.page GMT Going back to the old reanimation protocols RP was more powerful, they prefered it over the old RP.

They didn't like "dead" models popping back up, after they "killed" them, and prefered the new style of simply shrugging off the wounds.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/636858/7613350.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/636858/7613350.page GMT Going back to the old reanimation protocols RP rules. They were not only fluffy, but opened up the possible tactic of focus firing to deny RP, much how nids give you the possible tactic of focusing on synapse. There was flavor not only in how the army played, but how it felt to play AGAINST.

I think that anyone who prefers old RP instinctively realizes this, and it is a definite sign of a player who values the game experience over winning.
