>>as for the Necron troops same if we just give 5+ repair, the Dread would
take the roll of Termies with it's ST and repair roll.

>>would like to see a reason for the use of it, this is the answer, Necron
allowed to live as citizens would be given the Scarab Protectors

>> but this would bring them down some, they would now get the repair roll
in CC and be able to upgrade
