Los geht’s: Die Necrons überzeugen wahrscheinlich eher durch ihre inneren Werte. Sie werden wohl relativ nah an dem bleiben, was man kennt. Und zwar im Sinne der Figuren und auch der Regeln (abgesehen von den wilden Formationsregeln), wenn man die aktuelle Gerüchtelage ernst nehmen darf.
Anders und sicherlich mit vielen neuen Ideen und Regeln werden die Harlequine daherkommen! Nun sind erste Regelfetzen und eine Releaseliste für die nächste Woche durchgesickert, so dass wir uns endlich ein Bild vom Umfang und Charakter des neuen “Codex” machen können. Bisher sieht es eher wie ein White Dwarf Update aus…Leider ist auch über das neue Transportsfahrzeug “Skyweaver” noch nichts bekannt geworden.
Immerhin gibt es schonmal ein erstes verpixeltes Bild:

He is in a dynamic pose leaping into the air with one hand out front and his harlequin caress hidden from his target reared back ready to strike the final blow. the model is supported by his jacket on the base.
