Hello. The Necrons are back.
I have just finished the v 2.1 of the Necron army list.
The changes might seem purely cosmetic at the first glance, but at the second one you begin to see their true nature.
Most important is streamlining and cutting down many of the special rules I have performed.
IMHO, this version of the army list is going to be what we can consider "final" version, ready to be passed on to Jervis Johnson for purpose of him creating an official army list for the Necrons.
In the interview published in the last issue (14) of "Incoming!", Jervis said he is going to do the official Necron list as the next one, so it's about time I finish tinkering with the special rules and stuff. Currently it is about correct. Most issues you have told me about, primarily the complication of the special rules which slowed down the gameplay was dealt with.
Sufficiently to say, this version is maybe not the first to satisfy me, but of this one is what I am really proud of. This is probably the pinnacle of what I can make out of an army list, of course not without your most kind help and suggetions.
This time I'm not going to gloat over what I have changed to better. You will simply have to check this out yourself to believe.
Download? Here:
EpicA yahoogroup; Microsoft Word 6.0 filetype, zipped; 50k size
Epica_lists yahoogroup; PDF format; 150 k size
Note: both files have exactly the same content.

Hi!
While I don't play epic A, a army list like this will be useful for that armies revision that is upcoming.
Thanks for the information!

Hmm..your right. I thought it was working before, but waited to download later.
I'm sure it will get fixed soon.

managed to get a copy by going direct to YG..
Since I'm new here and missed the discussion on what's going into the list do you want my feedback on it?

Duh. I dunno why the links aren't working.
Anyway, get them from:
groups.yahoo.com/group/epica/
groups.yahoo.com/group/epica_lists/
Go to the files section. At both groups in the files area there are Necron sub-sections. Go there and download. BTW: at epica_lists there are two of them, download the newer one.
As for comments... you can post 'em here, send them on my personal e-mail adress, or go to the EA playtest forum thread.
Either way, your comments will be taken in account when (IF!) I'll do the next version of the list.

It's nothing. Now plz tell me what do U think of the list, cause I really want to know.
If it's something bad, come on, say it. I'm not gonna start a flame war, as I'll just set on making the thing better.

Just wanted to pass on some news I got from my Forgeworld news letter to any interested persons.
There is mention of a upcoming Epic Tau Orca and Sky Ray. No pics sorry.
Take Care

As you can see from the GW UK Online Store the Epic Armageddon rulebook has sold out, to quote, NOTE: This book is currently out of stock, any orders containing this item will be held until it is ready for dispatch.
Now is this good news or bad news?
Personally I think it is good news, as the managers of certain GW stores have also indicated to me that the rulebook is selling fast!

Hi!
I say good news. It means they have made realistic estimations of sales and have produced accordingly. They must never make more than they sell for epic to be continously viable.

I say its a good sign, as all truly great things sell out within the first month.

I went in my local GW store today, and saw a copy of the rulebook, but didn't get it...sounds like I should have now!
And it was only ?20 as well!
Cheers
