Back to my 40k and NECRONS!!

Nick speaking,

Just got back from my three week holiday in Indonesia, and I have seen that the new Necron Codex is out!!! Just imagine my excitement as I walked into my local gaming store to see all the new stuff. I didn't get a chance to read all the rumours and stuff that must have been floating around over the past few weeks, so I am happy to be looking at the new stuff from a totally brand new, uninfluenced point of view!

To be honest, with the jet lag and all, things have been a bit hectic since I got back from my hols, and I haven't had time to sit down and read anything yet, but my first impression of the Codex is 'What the hell has happened to my Necrons?' The picture on the front of the original Codex was why I chose Necrons as my first army, and in turn, lead to my love of 40k, but this new Codex cover doesn't seem to have the same impact on me, Necrons just don't seem like robots any more?

No, seriously, I know that many people found the old style Necrons very limited and boring to play, and play against, and although I never found Necrons to be that way myself, I am really looking forward to having a few hours alone with the book to give it a good going over. The front cover really does indicate that these new Necrons are not going to be boring, and they certainly do look a lot more dynamic. Now to get myself a few undisturbed hours to check it out. I also need to find some time to have a look at the opinions and views of all the other blogs out there that I follow. My Google Reader account says I have over four hundred unread posts to read, so I have my work cut out! Still, it's nice to be back to my 40k, and even better to be back to my Necrons.
