Hi,

here's another question:

The Necron Phase Out special rule reads as follow:

In the end phase of the turn, instead of attempting to rally, remove the formation from the board into the reserves, but keep it away from any destroyed units. The formation will automatically rally in the end phase and lose all blast markers.


Now if you consider this (Necron special rule):

When a formation regroups due to rallying, performing a Marshal action, or a Hold action, the formation may either remove blast markers, or return fallen units with the Necron ability to play up to the number of blast markers it could remove, or any combination of the two.

How do the two interact?

A broken Necron formation phases out at the end of the turn and removes all BM. Can it choose to keep some BM and return some destroyed units to play?

For some reason, I've always considered that you couldn't do that, but now I'm not so sure...

OK, thanks for the clarification.

Could this be rewritten in the next Necron list to clearly state that phased out formations cannot repair?

Actually, the end of the ability should state straight out that off board formations do not get to use the Necron ability
