FromDakkadakka:

Has anyone goto GamesDay and hear additional rumors besides those below for the upcoming Necron release in 2008? They say its going to be a release similar to Tau Empires - fewer new model and streamlining rules. I have heard:

* WBBreplaced with FNP.
* Necron Warriors and Immortals get SAP, T increase by 1, and point increase.
* Phase Out gone!
* Three different options of Necron Lords.
* Veil is nerfed (sends unit to reserve, but can deep-strike next turn).
* One new HS unit choice.

WBB = We'll Be Back
FNP = Fell No Pain
SAP = Slow And Purposeful

Boy, wouldn't that wreak havoc with the Epic Necron list... :O

All sounds eminently sensible. FNP would vastly reduce the number of rules wierdness that plagues Necron games, with no appreciatable change to the actual effect. In fact, it all sounds so sensible, I'm inclined to assume it isn't true. On the other hand, it isn't an army I actually play, so there is not need to bugger around with it so you can't use it any more. Not that I'm bitter about my Emperor's Children and LATD. Wow, cool, a new Chaos Codex ... oh. And... LATD? Oh, I can use them in Apocalypse? You're too kind, why would I want a tournament-legal army list anyway? Bah.

I don't think you need worry about the Epic rules too much. Phase out in Epic seems fine, and even if they do away with it in 40K.

However, there is one distinct thing I don't like about these rumours. They aren't Alienhunters rumours. When is Alienhunters coming? When?!

Edit: apologies, there. Seem to be in a tangental ranting mood today...

I think Phase Out makes more sense in an Epic game as in WH40k.

It does. Especially since there are more options to use it effectively as a game mechanic
