RTB01 box arrived today, forgive the poor quality but I'm working with a half broken iPhone right now. Everything is also still on the sprues.

$250 well spent I say, I'll probably start putting them together some time soon.

Hmm, I'm stuck trying to decide which Necron Dynasty Code to go for. I'm planning a Lychguard army, so I'm deciding between Nephrekh (always advance 6" and ignore models and terrain when advancing) or Novokh (re-roll to hit in 1st round of combat). Their Stratagems are both good too, since Nephrekh lets me deep strike and Novokh lets one of my units attack twice (though it costs all my command points). I'm not using the Dynasty-specific relics or warlord traits so it's just between those. Any advice?

Disliking the Custodes is a surefire sign of heresy.

I'd give it to the Thousand Sons. Out of all the traitor legions, them and their Primarch got hosed the worst. Declared a traitor cause you tried warning Daddy Emperor about something bad, and then becoming dust filled suits of armor cause some dope screwed up a spell.

Except the Emperor was blind to the shit about to go down. And yeah, his cyclops ass did fuck up by destroying that psychic wall whatnot to try and tell him. But he fucked up by meaning well.

Im honestly not sure which traitor legion is my favourite.

The deathguard look cool as fuck, even though im not a huge nurgle fan, so might vote for them purely on their more unique looking designs.

Who do you think would win in a fight: A Rubric Marine or a Death Guard Marine? Death Guard have that zombie toughness that Nurgle gives them, but Rubric's are just dust in armor. It's like shooting an empty suit.
