angrom Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Hi All So from the pictures of the heavy destroyers it seems that GW definitly moved away from the :cussflying translucent plastic bases. To me it seems that the new Heavy destroyers a lot beefier than our regular destroyers. Do you think we should expect a size rebasing for regular destroyers ?. What base size would you go for, for consistency? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/366376-new-necron-destroyer-base-size/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
01RTB01 Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 October is the answer :( Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/366376-new-necron-destroyer-base-size/#findComment-5597735 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Loss Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 As RTB says, wait & see. For all we know Destroyers might get a new kit or simply get reboxed, which would change the answer. Not long to wait now Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/366376-new-necron-destroyer-base-size/#findComment-5597826 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stupidity Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Nothing we've seen suggests anything not in the preview diorama will be updated.

Get Thokt Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Slightly off-topic, but did the base size change for Wraiths? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/366376-new-necron-destroyer-base-size/#findComment-5598158 Share on other sites More sharing options...
NTaW Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Wraiths are still advertised as sold with 40mm bases, which I think is the same as now. A larger base would do them well. As for the topic at hand it looks like the Lokhust are on black plastic bases instead of the clear flying bases. Probably 60 or 80mm but as it's been said we will have to wait for a real release to know for sure. It's possible we could see more details this Saturday during the online preview but more likely October(/November) will be the time.

The_Chaplain Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Slightly off-topic, but did the base size change for Wraiths? The reboxed wraiths are still on 40 mm bases. Just checked them against the plastic cryptek (which is also on a 40) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/366376-new-necron-destroyer-base-size/#findComment-5598304 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahzek451 Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Was 40mm the base size for terminators and scarabs? Because my wraiths in the new box art are on a base size bigger than the scarab base.

NTaW Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Scarabs and Terminators are on a 40mm base. Good to hear they're shifting to at least 50mm, though that means figuring out and printing newly sized adapters for me.

Get Thokt Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 (edited) Wraiths I bought came with same base sizes as Scarabs. Looks like I'll need to buy the 50mm for them. Aren't the Crypteks on 50mm?

Fajita Fan Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 Now if only Nightbringers went on a bigger base... Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/366376-new-necron-destroyer-base-size/#findComment-5598582 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahzek451 Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 I could be wrong, but I believe the new wraith box art shows them on the bigger bases. If people are getting wraiths with the new box and some are getting 40 and others 50......thanks GW haha. I will def be mounting them on the 50 that came in my wraith box. The 40's are so tiny for them, tip over easy, and make it difficult getting into base to base at time.

01RTB01 Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 If you buy the objective markers box you get 50s in there. I've put them onto 40s as thems the rules Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/366376-new-necron-destroyer-base-size/#findComment-5599118 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Get Thokt Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 (edited) 40mm really does suck for them. And are a pain to move around on the table. Happy to move them onto 50s if that's the case. Hope they come off the bases easily Edited September 12, 2020 by Get Thokt Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/366376-new-necron-destroyer-base-size/#findComment-5599608 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seahawk Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 Now if only Nightbringers went on a bigger base... The studio Nightbringer is on a 50, so I rebased mine to that.

Get Thokt Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 Got to see the new Necron boxes and compared both old and new for Wraiths. The Wraiths are certainly on a bigger base in the new boxes Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/366376-new-necron-destroyer-base-size/#findComment-5602070 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Chaplain Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 I was mistaken-- forgebane cryptek is on a 50mm and that is what the new box for the wraiths come with.
