Fantastic work, a hearty congratulations to all involved!

*Just a small not - Bill, you should remove my name (Steve_Marr) from the Models list as you haven't actually used any of the information I sent you. You had it in the Modelling Section-Necrons pt3 pdf originally.

Small notes:
* The C'tan Nightbringer name in the Necron army list doesn't show correctly.

* In the BFG scenario you are inconsisten with capitals of words (eg System ship - transport, Phantom Lances - weapon batteries).

WOW!, the complete version look absolutly amazing! especially the artwork on the front cover of that tormentor titan, cudo's to the person who drew that!

the dark elder look great(check), the necron list is all clarified are corrected(check),
guard models look cool(check), fluff is a good read(check), looks like everything is all good! great work to all who contributed.

if it wasn't for all the awesome scratchbuilding articles in the modeling secions you could almost pass it off as something GW produced :p

its been a long wait but it has been worth it, look forward to seeing GW's response to this, i hope they publish it on the site.

One minor thing... the tomb spyder claw attack is listed as having ignore cover, and it never used to. Only the scarab attacks should have ignore cover.

Thanks everyone.  Keep the corrections and critiques coming.  I am listening and making the appropraite changes, but at the same time I don't want to drag out the process for too long. A few more days and I'll send the revised and FINAL copy to Cybershadow.  After that any changes will have to wait till next year.

*Just a small not - Bill, you should remove my name (Steve_Marr) from the Models list as you haven't actually used any of the information I sent you. You had it in the Modelling Section-Necrons pt3 pdf originally.

I wanted to address this publicly because I don't want anyone thinking that Onyx's work wasn't up to snuff.

When we were deciding what to do with Raiders, a lot of decisions had to be made regarding IP.  Games Workshop does not like mixed IP and I knew that -at a minimum- Andy Hall would never have anything to do with it, forever killing the idea of these lists making it to the Specialist-Games site.  

Over time, we decided not to submit the work to Fanatic anyway, but at the same time we realized this work really should be GW-friendly.  Because of this, Andy agreed to put a link to Raiders in Fanatic, getting around the whole once-you-submit-to-Fanatic-its-ours thing and also allowing us to post the supplement at Firebase and here.

Now there is a Part 3 Modeling section that never made it into Raiders.  Compared to the other sections it is quite small, but the information is probably of great interest to Necron fans.  It contains names, links, and modeling ideas for building a Necron army with 'other lines'.  I still have this information and would like to put it out to the community at some point, but just not right now.  It was in there where Onyx's work was showed off.

Steve, don't think I didn't like it.  I think your army rocks. :cool:

War in Heaven

Pushed to the brink of extinction by the relentless assault of the C?tan and their Necron, the Old Ones were forced to create entire new life forms in order to attempt to preserve their own existence.

Missing "to", as added above.

The word "monolith", when referring to the Necron vehicle, should probably be capitalized; this is most evident in the "Scarab Conflict" section.
