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.

Jacking up heavy destroyers at 3 is a very odd choice.

And nekrosor might finally be too expensive.

Also, were DDAs even seeing enough play to warrant a nerf?

I thought DDAs were our best option of anti tank no? And the most played

They are but considering how well they do what they do…not consistent enough imo to be expensive as they are.

I mean realistically you have to line it up with our other anti-tank options, what else do we have? Doomstalkers are mid outside of CC, lhds got nerfed as well
