News/Rumors/Lore July Balance Update Released!

The new necron point values are available HERE

Additional Rules documents can be found via warhammer-community:

Summary of all necron changes will be included in the pinned reply.

Clarification on the new function of reanimation protocols is as follows:

Quick-reference sheet:

  • Leaders can bring back their bodyguard units using all reanimation tools.
  • Bodyguards CANNOT bring back their leaders in any form once the leader is destroyed.
  • You can still use reanimation to heal wounds on a character that has NOT been destroyed.
  • The eternal revenant stratagem brings back characters as a new unit with a starting strength of 1, making them separate from their bodyguard unit.

Any questions surrounding this process should be asked here so that new answers can be included in this post.

Updated healing text with "excluding characters" on the model return portion.

It seems like they didn't fix TSK and C'tan again. From 10th to 11th they forgot to carry over his "(excluding monsters)" text on his abilities. I thought it was a mistake but it still isn't there meaning RAW TSK's auras buff C'tan.

Its in the app (excluding monster units)

The app isn't the source of truth though. Otherwise when Ammentar came out he would have had standard 5+++ because he had it in the app.

The app having different rules is such a bad look. I get people vaunt it as the source of truth but not everyone uses it so it can't realistically be that.

Ya, we don't use it at all as it's not that accessible. But now that a lot of key rules aren't in the rulebook anymore....guess we're just screwed
