Necrons are GO!

After giving all of my attention to Warmachine for the past few months, I have decide to go back to playing 40k for a while. I have decided to keep my Dark Angels boxed up as they (and I) are waiting for a new Codex or an update at the very least. According to various forums, the Necrons are also waiting for a new Codex. But, for me, they are still current enough to still be fun. According to my spreadsheet, they now stand at a total of 5104 points (thanks to a recent acquisition of three Tomb Spyders and 5 Immortals from). I think that would be enough for me to be flexible in picking smaller lists, although you can never have enough Warriors. I still plan on adding at least a full unit roughly every month as long as I’m not distracted by another Privateer Press games system.


At my local gaming club, there is going to be Planetary Empires campaign run by EdSmasha and his Orks and I have put my metal minions forward for this. It would be good to finally get a game against EdSmasha, as our last two games have been cancelled due to illness and then childbirth. In additional to myself and EdSmasha, there will be four other players (including Nick the Dark Eldar player who tore my trashcans a new a-hole a few months ago (please see previous posts)). There will be a nice mix of armies in this campaign with some Eldar, Ultramarines and Tyranids completing our sextuplet of participants.

I am quite excited about this new campaign, but I’m up against some really good players. That, coupled with my bad dice and luck, should mean that I would be better off sticking to Dawn of War on my PC. But I shall turn up with a fully painted army (thank the C’Tan for spray paint!), which is something I cannot do with any other army for any other game (even my Van Saar Necromunda gang is incomplete). And, as ever, I will also turn up in the hope of gaining a victory.
