Shield of Baal - Exterminatus

wow... just wow.....

so I can take an item that gives my 2+ save destroyer lord a rerollable save and it makes his warcythe S8?

ummm okay... I will.... take two that is

oh and a ctan shard formation with two crypteks... and as long as both are alive he gets 5+ FNP... and opponents have to always wound on the c'tan's toughness? and if you give a cryptek the god shard the c'tan gets +1 Strength and Toughness for TEN FRIGGING POINTS?? and if it's a veiltek you can have them teleporting around the battlefield???

....thump.....

sorry, fell off my chair there... ahem... where was I....

I highly recommend you follow this link:

The question is whether this will still function when the new book comes out...Seems just like GW to put out something awesome and then cahnge the whole army.

given they did this exact idea with the space wolves, orks, tyranids, and BA, it appears they've been consistently using the formations in their expansions (especially nids... I mean wow...) extremely effectively.

I think this gives us a bit of a hint into upcoming warscythe changes to AP2 and unweildy (given the special weapon above seems like a slight upgrade to a warscythe). I'm really not going to complain, as AP2 vs. AP1 isn't that big a deal against most targets, and unweildy seems both fair (it's a friggin two handed scythe!) and not really that impactful given necron stellar Initiative of 2
