Oh I think I can see the old front cover underneath the new one when the page loads, there's a flicker as two high-res pictures are quickly overlaid atop one another.

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.

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:

Thanks Bill. ?:)

I figured this was the case and I don't take it personally mate.

So, have you got enough spare time to knock me up a couple of Warbarques now?? ?:glare: ?:laugh:

I noticed that too.

It'd probably be worth deleting the 'hidden' image as it does add to the file size and also slows down the viewing of the file on screen.

It's the watermark on the page underneath and with the way the layout was built the cover was just dumped on top of it.

I can fix that though - it shall be done.

More thoughts:

The Swordwind and Armageddon books both had the story section before the rules section. That's possibly more approachable for newbies.

Again, Swordwind and Armageddon have the army list pages all next to each other, as a seperate sub-section. I don't think that's so important though.

I figured somebody was going to bring that up... I don't like the order either but because everything was done section by section and there were huge gaps of time between when each part was completed, it led to the existing format.  I didn't feel like reformatting the whole dang thing once I had it all together.

I thought about putting the storyline up front but the Necron, Minervan, and Dark Eldar backgrounds were written in such a way to lead into the fiction, to draw the three storylines together.  If I reversed it the supplement would lose that feel.

I'll do better on the next supplement. :p
