Haven't kept track of the previous PA pre-orders and such. Have we been able to order the models at the same time as the book?

Hey, just need a confirmation to something that was just posted on spacebattles. Apparently on a GW stream (poster didn't say which) it was mentioned that Necrons won't actually get any rules/content in the Pariah books aside from the 2 pages relating to Illuminor Szeras.
Somebody else tossed up a picture of the book's index (sorry for the small size)
Can anyone confirm this? Because I don't want to buy a book I'll probably only use a couple of pages out of.

And are the various missions included in the PA books interesting at all? Because that's probably the only other reason I might want the book.
Because otherwise I'm just going to grab Szeras and wait for the datasheet to be available.

If it wasnt because i have picked up all the other books Id save the $40 dollars and put it towards more necrons.

Hope they are going to be like Assassins and can add them to any list ect. It says at the end all Inquisition forces can be added to a detachment without affecting the detachment abilities |

I don’t know how I missed that. Thanks for pointing that out. Super excited. Wallet is not. Going to be a rough summer of model buying I think.

Well assuming everything is still on track, pre-ordering the various elements of Pariah should start tomorrow. Time to place an order for one spooky scary skeleton.

Leak for Szeras's data sheet. Nothing too exciting aside from mechanical augmentation getting buffed to a 6' range as opposed to 1' which actually makes it semi-viable. His two new abilities? Yeah they are not going to proc very often.
They still haven't given him an invul though.

Thanks for the leak link... I think he's on the must buy list for me:
For 20 points over his old datasheet (I'm assuming this will be 9th ed points, given it's the release a couple weeks before 9th drops!) you get:
+2 movement
+2 strength
+2 toughness
+2 wounds
D3 shots with the eldritch lance instead of 1 (but reduced range to 18")
+2 attacks in melee (at his previous attack power)
Improved to +1 strength, -3 AP and 2 damage for eldritch lance in melee (nearly a war scythe)
atomic energy manipulation ability (which may actually proc given he's actually decent in combat)
empyric overcharger ability (which could be huge against aggressive psykers - GSC, mephiston, Flyrants, Daemons, etc.)
increased range for mechanical augmentation
that is an INSANE power bump for a cryptek level character for a measly 20 points... who can also benefit from guard thralls so snipers can't tag him. Oh I'm picking this dude up... (plus the cool model helps)

The problem is he can't stay in combat for any length of time against anything that has any sort of real AP. But then I've always been paranoid about having my characters into any sort of brawl so I'll need to adjust.
