Now for £45 you can have a giant gun with hundreds of fiddly ******* legs and segments to build...

I'm not after specifics but what is it like rules wise? How big is the big gun?

Isn't it a Tomb 'Sentinel'? The Tomb Stalker has been out for a long time.

This is Canoptek Tomb Sentinel, though it looks very similiar to Canoptek Tomb Stalker

If its a Monstrous Creature Doomsday Cannon for the same/less points as an Ark then my Army may be changing.

kinda wish they did more to make it look different to the Stalker. I'd of made it quite a bit longer, gotten rid of the legs and made it look like it floats through the air. If I ever get one that's what ill do to it anyway. I guess this is the last of the necron forge world releases for IA12 then?

This is becoming a gripe of mine, to have one kit as CC then release an almost identical one as a shooty one.

Its the last one seen. Unless they were holding something back at the FW open day this is it.

So its just Marines, marines and more marines until IA13 now...

I have some mild OCD problems and things like this tend to trigger that, and my mind focuses on how to further differentiate the units visually!

Yeah, that's what I'm assuming, sadly. Would love to of seen some of the characters or some themed Dynasty upgrade kits (similar to what eldar got) but I'm not gonna get my hopes up on that.

Unfortunatly FW have woken up to the fact that the Heresy is a legal way of printing cash and have got stuck on it. I can see the release being a book, a few xenos model the weeks around it, then marines for the other 11 months of the year.

Its a Fast Attack choice. MC with 4's across the board except S6 T7 LD10. 195 Pts.

Exile cannon is basically the Transdimensional Beamer with a blast that also auto pens vehicles + buildings.

Has Fearless, Rampage, Deepstrike, Outflank + Hit & Run.

Immune to Fleshbane + poison attacks. use strength of attacker / weapon instead, otherwise attack wounds on a 6.

Can but Gloom Prism for 15pts or sacarbs that give it Feel No Pain for 15pts.

You say that, but how long has Bran Redmaw been sitting on a shelf?

Between the persistent rumor of DE in an upcoming IA and the orgiastic pace of the HH releases FW can do no wrong by me. My bank account, on the other hand, hopes they continue to release necrons.

Mark Bedford binned the one previewed ages ago as he wasn't happy with it. Another sculptor has taken the challenge.

With regards to my info post, it's It Will not Die NOT Feel No Pain which the sacrab upgrade gives. Also it only has 2 attacks. :)
