You can still improve the Reanimation Protocols (We'll be back) roll to a 4+ with a Res Orb if you want. But with the way the Royal Court works (basically upgradable squad leaders that can be assigned to several different units) I anticipate seeing more MSU-style cron lists. Truthfully, the new codex offers a variety of ways to play Necrons now which is really exciting. They are no longer tied to the massive warrior phalanx list of older editions in order to compete, and I'm looking forward to trying out some of their new shenanigans!joe m.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13189710292622018212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5409947257572021255.post-90419444898120704602011-11-07T09:07:38.512-05:002011-11-07T09:07:38.512-05:00I haven't gotten my hands on the next codex ye...I haven't gotten my hands on the next codex yet. What I had heard so far rule wise left me a little disconcerted... Immortals now being what Necron Warriors used to be, and Necron Warriors being softened. And from what I can tell the 'we'll be backs' are now on a 5+ instead of a 4+. That said, all the rules I've read are on just the briefs on the GW website so I'm sure there will be some pleasant surprises.Alexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06548804459815058070noreply@blogger.com
