new necrons codex

[krittoris]

ask a guy who got the new necrons codex anything?

[Matt 6 - NZ]

Does the sweep attack target three different units or a single unit three times with the applicable attacks generated?

Two trains leave Chicago, one travelling to New York, one to Los Angeles...

Sweep Attack: Whilst a character remains embarked on a Catacomb Command Barge, he can make three special 'sweep' attacks each turn. These attacks can be made in the Movement phase against one enemy unit that the Catacomb Command Barge moves over. All attacks must be resolved on the same unit.

That is quoted from this month's WD.

[krittoris]

the above is correct.

i'll also add from a question posted a few slots down in the forum about necron wraiths. here is there stuff:

its attacks are rending, still moves like the old wraith avoiding terrain ect, and also has a 10 point whip upgrade that makes your opponents innitiative automatically turn to 1.

[Matt 6 - NZ]

Unengaged enemy units? or simply ememy units.
Fancy tangling up some enemy unit with a tough unit of your own while a couple of necon lords go all green goblin on their ***.

Whats the points cost on one of these things?

Is there a way other than Wraiths to level the playing field in CC?

Do they have offensive grenades?
Seems a silly question, but it would actually make the whip upgrade a lot less good, and offensive grenades on assault units aren't necessarily a given (Tyranids).

Also, they're jump infantry now, correct (old codex had them moving like jetbikes)?
Do they have Fleet?

I don't have the codex, but haven't you seen the rumours for their CC units? We know a lot about most of them aside from Wraiths and Scarabs.

The standout on-paper are Lychguard, which are T5 and can be upgraded to have a 4++ save and power weapon.

can you run us down on the units presented in the codex that are not included in the first wave with a small description please.
