Blanks are also completely soulless, and for a while rather than dissolving them into their component atoms Necrons made Pariahs out of them.

You all spell 'Flesh Tearers' very strangely.

Cythereal posted:Nope, I'm a Necron fan but honestly preferred the old ones. The Necrons in tabletop Battlefleet Gothic, though, were infamously awful to play as and against, and if they ever appear in this game they'll need to be reworked heavily. Wasn't the Necron Battlefleet Gothic gimmick "we chain a bunch of lances together to make a super-lance to one-shot your battleship and then leave the board immediately because that means we'll win on points"?

Convoy would be better if there was an agro-management tool in game. Something to force the enemy to switch their targets to your cruisers, even if only temporarily. The tools exist to make Data Recovery possible, if not exactly fun. The same cannot be said of escort missions, so winning those really seems down to luck / making good choices when disabling enemy systems.

Cathode Raymond posted:Convoy attack on the other hand is pretty easy most of the time. You can always send in a bunch of suicide escorts to ram the enemy transports again and again while flinging macro rounds at them. Since they're escorts, it doesn't matter if they get chewed up by enemy guns or not. That sounds like my favorite Tyranid gimmick Hive Fleet. It was basically just 30+ of their ramming/melee escorts and a prayer that you wouldn't roll a mission too close to the sun (where a single solar flare would annihilate your entire fleet).

Disproportionation posted:But I guess GW figured if the game had yet another existential threat the whole universe would topple over or something. Necrons weren't selling. Rather than assuming (correctly) that it's because their rules suck, they assumed it was because of the lore. Games Workshop is pretty bad about that in general. They don't realize that people usually only buy things that are actually useful.

I am perpetually amused that His Divine Overcompensation keeps squeaking through these fights by the slimmest of margins. I suggest naming a replacement cruiser the Everlasting Gobsmacker, as commanded by Captain Charlie.
