Post subject:  Necron Army for Sale! - my army from Raiders

When Raiders first published I wanted to have an army that would be 100% Games-Workshop, kit-busted, or scratch-built. While I fell a bit shy of that goal, I did manage to get quite the collection together. Ultimately I had to bring in some other units from Dark Realm Miniatures, but I was still pleased with the result.

The Raiders Necron Army is going up for sale... A portion of it anyway.

30 Necron Warriors - these are the original Chaos Androids from way back when
5 Necron Warrior with Lord - as above, but with DRM dudes standing in as Lords
7 Immortals - DRM Andrayadas
6 Pariahs - DRM Andrayada kitbusted with big blades
3 Flayed Ones - Warmaster ghosts kitbusted
12 Obelisks - custom built
6 Tomb Spyders - made from 40K Scarabs and other bits
12 Destroyers - 40K Scarabs with DRM minis and other pieces
4 Heavy Destroyers - 40K Scarabs with DRM minis and other pieces
2 Destroyers with Lord- 40K Scarabs with DRM minis and other pieces
7 Monoliths (4 of one, 3 of another) - three of these were scratch-built by Corey back in the day
2 Pylons - scratch built

There are some pieces like the Warbarque, Orb, Abattoir, C'tan, and Wraiths that I'll be holding onto. The rest are going up for sale. I'd prefer to give them up in a lot but if need be they can parceled out.

Looking for cash only.

No, I'm not getting out of Epic. Just wanting to re-do my Necron army and need the cash to do so.

This is your opportunity to own Epic history! :o

Sadly there was no interest here on Tactical so off the army goes. :(

Feel free to bid!

Please put up a separate auction for your hand. :-p

shame it had to go on ebay (the listing is a pretty good read though...)

I would have been tempted but I can't justify spending the money that this army is worth in the blood sweat and tears aspect!

I still have hopes it will end up with somebody out here.

You do lay-away plans? ;)

Let's talk if you win. I'm fine with waiting a little bit, but waiting 2-3 months will put me in a bind. I've already bought most of my materials for the new army, so this sale is paying for those bills.

not long now...
hopefully this listing is going to meet your expectations on fundage.

Did a little thinking about why perhaps this didn't get quite jumped on initially (while recently a few other 'Cron armies seemed to be overrun with people clamoring for them). I am thinking this might be some of the "chilling effect" we all wondered about if it would happen after a particular letter from a well known games company was delivered to a friendly water mammal and a source of proxies dried up. The feeling, conscious or not, might be that the ability to expand an army might be more limited or more pain than people might want to take on.

For instance the reason I didn't jump on this was, beyond obvious available funds issue, was that I really don't enjoy the scratch building part as much as the painting side of the hobby. Not that I am opposed to it, but it's more of a chore to get through so I can do the "fun parts" :) Now with two kids it is totally unrealistic time commitment for the foreseeable future to invest in scratch building too much. I personally would want a slightly larger force in one go complete with everything I'd need to field a few different list variations (Modular Not So Messy 'Crons to steal a title from MoK).

Regardless I am glad to see this get bid up to what I expect is a nice level for you. Hopefully this is going to a good home (and not say Black Water Miniatures ;) )

Thanks. You might be right, although this army should have been appealing to people who DON’T want to kitbust things because it’s pretty much done. The only things missing are the big parts and you don’t necessarily ‘need’ them. Oh well.

Yeah, it’s pretty close to where I would like it to be. I have to say though the infantry alone cost me almost $200 to buy. I was buying those Chaos androids for upwards of $1 per model. Ugh…. Ironically it was the rest of the army that was inexpensive to build. :P

And it is done! The army is off to the great State of Texas.
