Necron Second Wave Reminders


We have just had a nice release of Tyranids and Space Wolves. So what release is rumored to be next? Necrons with their second wave of course. Rumors for the next week will probably be a little light, and should start picking up again next week, and getting stronger as we approach the next White Dwarf release. I expect necrons will be big in it.

Here are some reminders of what people were saying about what is coming for necrons. Many rumor sources placed Necrons either in February, or early March. Well they didn't make it that early, so a pre-order in late march for a first week of April release seems ok.

These are rumors, please take with salt. Some of the time lines for these rumors has already passed, but I believe they were just too early, as they were with the tyranids models. These rumors are from January

early next year youll be getting a second wave of necrons - entries in the codex not covered by the first release, 4 vehicles, a walker and 2 aircraft, also new tomb spiders IIRC.

Can't recall of the top of my head about the vehicles, the walker Artwork shows a large spider with a necRon driver and scorpion tail over the head blaster type thing.

Another confirmation by him (on Wraiths and Tomb Spyders):

I've already posted on the necron rumour thread that these items will be part of the second wave on necron models released early next year. The jetbike type necrons are also amongst the new kits.

Recieved information/rumors today. As stated by Dr.Pie himself the wave 2 is planned. Was told it will arrive late feb./early march and will be the following kits:
- Doom/Night scythe (plastic kit) 1 model
- Canoptic Wraiths/Spyders (Plastic kit) 3 models
- Iluminor Szeras (Finecast) 1 model
- Anrakyr the Traveler (Finecast) 1 model

Tomb blades and Triarch Stalker are missing from that list, but Hastings said a whle ago that they will come with the same wave.

Feb is hinted as a 2nd wave for nids.... and Necrons

Nids to get valentine love, crons to get leap year love.

A little birdy told me: Necrons may be pushed back another month, even though that might be 50/50.

Don't kill me, I'm just the messenger. And I don't buy it - but wanted to let you know anyway.
