It is confirmed. Necrons will be in the last book.

Also to mention that Pariah units were heavily emphasized in the stream. With another preview expected in May, we can hope there to be more for the Necrons.

 

The model is beautiful. And with a 60mm base, I'll take my sweet time painting him up.

I'm hoping that psychic awakening breaths some (un)life into my necrons, they've felt so lackluster in 8th I've hardly touched them.

 

Szeras' model is straight fire

I'm not anticipating any new models (beyond Szeras), and it appears they called the thing Pariah solely to taunt us.

 

What I do cautiously expect, however, is our long lost Gauss special rule, which I'd expect to take the form of a general army wide buff akin to Bolt Discipline. Auto wounds on 6s, additional damage on 6s, or even dare I say mortal wounds...

I feel like about 8 out of every 5 Necron players would appreciate improved gauss representation :lol:

 

Something I noticed in the WC article on Szeras was this statement. Emphasis mine:

 

 

 

With Psychic Awakening: Pariah on the way, we’re looking at the history of one of the book’s archvillains – a legendary Necron without whom biotransference may never have been possible.

 

Now I'm not saying that there will be more models per se, but we've got a 3-1 Imperial-Xenos split for characters already and that sentence seems to imply there will be more characters on the bad-guy side even if only in lore.

The biotransference lore is Szeras.
