| Okay, so i'm torn between A) Buying the Necron Battleforce MKII or B) Spending the cash on a few Elite choices and more Fast Attack.
The pros of the battleforce is that I could always use the Troops, and the price is pretty much getting me an extra unit of troops for free. Plus, i'd be replacing my personal fast attack option (Wraiths) with a more strategic one (Destroyers).
The pros of B) is that i'd have some Flayed Ones and Pariahs to add to my flourishing army, as well as at least 1 more unit of Wraiths.
Any input? _________________ My Necron Ranks: 1x Lord 1x Destroyer Lord 1x Monolith [BOOM XD] 3x Destroyers 12x Troops 2x Immortals 3x Wraiths 1x Tomb Spyders 2x Pariahs |

| I vote option A. In 4th, pariahs and flayed ones were pretty much considered too terrible to use.
In 5th they might have gotten a little better, but ultimately your strength lies in your warrior squads. Although immortals are also sweet. _________________ 13th company record: 14/7/1 |

| Choose option A. Troops are the "backbone" of 5th. _________________ If the Emperor is the light of Mankind, then I am the eternal darkness he is now lost in.

Get a full squad of Immortals first before you get into other metallic special units. They're much more solid of a choice. |

My only problem with Immortals is personal >.> (The arms never fit right, so I wind up having to separate their forearms before I can put the damn thing together) _________________ My Necron Ranks: 1x Lord 1x Destroyer Lord 1x Monolith [BOOM XD] 3x Destroyers 12x Troops 2x Immortals 3x Wraiths 1x Tomb Spyders 2x Pariahs |
