Necron Toys!

Nick speaking, Did you get your Christmas wish this morning? I did, and I already have plenty of magnets to make them interchangeable. I have promised myself I wouldn't play with any Necrons until they are painted, so I better get cracking, and get these little beauties together... Happy Christmas and Season Greetings to all...

Playing at 2000 Points?

Nick speaking, You may remember a while back, when I posted up a Poll on what point level you prefer to play at? Without a shadow of a doubt, the top two levels were 1500 and 1750 points. Some of the lower levels like 500 and 750 points, did quite well also. I was a bit surprised that 2000 points clocked in at third place, as I thought...

Necron Immortals - Tesla Vs Gauss

Nick speaking, So how do you choose? Should your Immortals have Guass Blaster's or Tesla Carbine's? I have been messing around for a while now with both versions of the Immortal guns to find out how they perform on the battlefield. Obviously the Gauss Blaster is not what is used to be, getting the Nerf bat down to a Rapid fire weapon, but...

Necrons Vs Grey Knights Battle Report

Nick speaking, In my game where I tried out a Monolith and a unit of Flayed Ones who both did nothing all game! I was hoping that my new Traveller list wouldn't end up the same way.

Monolith/Flayed Ones disaster and first Traveller list!

Nick speaking, Continuing on with putting my old Necron models on the table with the new Codex, meant having just the Monolith, Flayed Ones and the Destroyer Lord left to try out. My first game with a Stormlord lead list using a Monolith and Flayed Ones was a disaster. Flayed Ones flanked on the wrong side of the board and the Monolith...

Gold Dust! - Green Stuff Scarabs

Nick speaking, I currently own sixty Warriors, which of course means that I have ended up with eighteen Scarab Swarms. Quite reasonable with the old Codex, but with Scarabs being as they are in the new version, is just not enough! GW still only sell Scarabs with Warriors, which is an incredibly expensive way to buy them, so not surprisingly...

New Necrons - The Next Stage

Nick speaking, My first new Necron Codex list went up against a nice and friendly Tau army. It was just a fun game where we got to see some of the new rules in action.

Necrons - Making my first new Codex list!

Nick speaking, I was on holiday when the new Necron Codex came out, so by the time I read, re-read and pondered on what I had read, every man and his blog had already done some sort of Codex/Unit reviews, with their own take on what is good, bad and ugly in the latest non Space Marine GW release. There are already lots of potentially...
