Actually, Nils did rather well with 2:1 with his roughriders. He just didnt
get his beastmen in on round
2..
If you lower the Necron CAF, you defeat the purpose of having few, but good
units. Necrons Assaults are like Terminators, and are supposed to be tough
to take out. You HAVE to swarm them in CC. That's why you need to buy lots
of cheap infantry.
The problem is, you can't set the stats and cost of a unit based on what
other units might be able to do.
The disruptor missiles aren't that powerful! Tell you what : Replace them
with some warp missiles which
kill instead of stop. Would that make you happier? :) It would me, i assure
you :)

I'd say we take away the warp jump, lower the CAF by 2, make the regen roll
5+ & increase the pointcost to get rid of them once and for all :)))) LOL
No, seriously, I think they can keep the warpjump and the pointcost, but the
CAF must go down. To beat the necrons in CC you have to outnumber them 3 to
1, and with the disruptor missiles you seldom get all those forces into CC.

Hi,
I agree with Rune, the warp jump of the Necron Assault dosen't make them too
powerfull, remember this unit breaks very easily!!!! (even with the 4+ regen
roll) 900 points would make fore som cheap victory points for the opponents!
I guess that if we find that change is needed I'm more in line with Eivinds
suggestion of lovering the CAF by 2. Or making the regen roll 5+ again.
