Necrons!

Here is another episode in my Christmas postings -- my Necron army.

Just like for my Tyranids, I decided to buy and paint up this army when the Necron codex came out way-back-when.  I made sure to create a Warrior heavy army -- I typically play with 60 -- in part because Warriors are do good and partially to have a force with real bulk.  Although I do have a painted monolith I usually don't take it in favor of Destroyers.

Unfortunately, just like my Tyranids this is a force that the new rules have significantly weakened.  Actually, I should say rule -- the big change in glancing.  The glance on a six Necron rule allowed me to do without serious anti-vehicle firepower.  When pretty much EVERYTHING you have can potentially cause a glancing hit a Necron army was scary to anything with an armor value regardless of what units you took.  Now, not so much.  Thus, like Tyranids Necrons is another 40K army screaming for an update.
