One of the good things about it coming from Fanatic then as I assume that the expectations of games from that particular GW subsiduary are much more realistic. _________________ Guns don't break formations.

Judging from other Fanatic games, they seem to have a good grasp on what the smaller selling capacity is and plan accordingly. I want the game to last as long as it takes for all armies and minis to be released. In my view thats the most important thing!   Primarch _________________ Primarch The Primarchload Magnetized Titans Tutorial Net Epic Gold Heresy Rules

It seems there are quite a few of us that desire Necrons, eh?   Understandable, its the only army not available in any form yet, since Tau are available through FW, albiet the infantry is somewhat costly, but the vehicles are decently priced. By the way, have the Epic A come up with an experimental Necron list? We're coming up with a Tau one for net epic and soon one for necrons and it would be good to see the Epic A's for insight and inspiration. Thanks!

The list on the Epic_lists group is The Fifth Horsemen's. He also has two on the EpicA group file area. There is one by boris_poehlmann that I haven't looked at. I think shmitty has one as well but his EpicA lists page is 404 at the moment. As per Neal's comments, TFH has a habit of making very complicated and overly detailed lists that don't lend themselves to easy playing. _________________ Guns don't break formations.

I would only need the list as a source of unit names and precisely what unit types were considered for an epic army for comparative purposes. The rules themselves will not be a problem since the net epic list will furnish rules for them. If they are fluff heavy that would actually be helpful to me since I only really need an idea of what the unit's battlefield role is. I dont know much about necrons in the GW sense so any information is useful. If anyone can point out a link, I'll peruse what is available.

I've got a lot of Epic to complete before that ! _________________ Legion 4 "Cry Havoc, and let slip the Dogs of War !" ...

Neal, your knowledge ids outdated 1. My army lists are never all fluff. Where did such stupid thought jump into your brain??? I usually add circa one or two pages of fluff. 2. I'm steering clear of doing too many special rules, as you can clearly see in the new EIA. It is quite playable. And your post is somewhat hostile towards me. If it's not intended, then I'll forget about it. If it's intended... then better hide in a nuclear shelter. TFH has a habit of making very complicated and overly detailed lists that don't lend themselves to easy playing.

Shouldn't this be "had"?
And I also have a habit of doing army lists that nobody else wants to do.


Primarch, buy Codex: Necrons, this is the best thing you can do. PM me your e-mail, so I can send you my list, and links to some Necron stuff.
