Pariah Nexus Crusade

[Matrindur]

[Marshal Rohr]

It’s nice of them to release a lore book for Pariah Nexus the Edition after the Pariah Nexus was the focal point of the plot. I am looking forward to reading more about Leviathan the summer after 11th Edition drops.

What's the issue? It's not like any of these warzones get tidily wrapped up at the end of an edition is it? And given its purely optional narrative content, more always seems better than less.

Huh? The war in the Nexus is still going on in the lore?

It is better, it just would’ve been better when I dropped a bunch of cash on Necrons expecting something to do with them and then 9th tanked

New WarCom article saying this is out this weekend; not according to the Sunday Preview and retail lists so sounds like another mistake, but presumably due to drop very soon

[Khulu]

This article about the book also says its coming this weekend, so maybe the mistake was in the Sunday article?

[skylerboodie]

It would appear so (though I wouldn't be surprised if WarCom were doubly wrong). Would be a shame if therefore means it's direct from GW only then, as stil not on order from (just rechecked GW Trade site) so no third-party discount.

I'm interested to see what comes of this (if anything):

  Quote

Unbeknownst to the self-proclaimed greatest mind of Mars, the Necrons have become embroiled in a civil war. Dynasties loyal to the Silent King are locked in combat with those who have aligned themselves with Imotekh the Stormlord – who has denounced the authority of the mute monarch.

Is that AdMech guy on the Right a new design or based on an existing model?

[TrawlingCleaner]

Everything in this photo isn't a model by the looks. I think it's mostly set dressing/artistic license and wouldn't read too much into it personally. Those Crawlers would be ginormous looking at the figures in front.

They're definitely not a model for this upcoming release cycle at least

Not everything. Those guys are from the Blackstone Fortress and do have models - in a few scales as well, for different power levels of the unit.

[skylerboodie]

WarCom were indeed doubly wrong and have now corrected their articles, for example -

 

So Crusade: Pariah Nexus is next year not this weekend as originally stated. Close.

Looks like a Hephaestus/Hephaeston and some kind of new automata.

GMG has a review up, with some closing thoughts on Narrative being a separate 'off to the side' product that I'm sure people will agree with.

 

 

[Taliesin]

I wish I could see inside the book so I can decide if I want to purchase.

This is one of those GM reviews where he shows nothing.

[phandaal]

Does anyone know if this will come with one of those little spiral mission books like we've gotten for other crusade releases?

Could be wrong but I'm sure it's exactly the same set up as the Tyranic War book they already put out

 Goon hammer reviews are really, really good for this. They break it down and discuss the entirety. I never buy a product without reading the Goonhammer review.

 

Edit- Just checked and the review is up, so here's the link: https://www.goonhammer.com/pariah-nexus-the-nephilim-war-crusade-rules-review/

Hmmm no table of contents and only info on the game rule part, I dont see anything in there talking about the lore other than that "ton of lore" is in there on Nephilim war.

[ZeroWolf]

Would this review be more helpful?
