Pump up the dramatic music (maybe that one song from Kill Bill) because it’s time for the showdown! Last week I tried to convince a skeptical Rob that my new and improved Necron list had legs, and in particular that I hadn’t driven myself half-mad straightening finecast guns for nothing. This weekend, I conquered my fear of running test games against myself (having first cunningly distracted my wife with the Final Fantasy 7 Remake in case it turned out to be just too embarrassing) and played out two versions of a clash between my C’tan spam list and one of my current Eldar builds. We decided I should play it twice because of Rob’s (not unreasonable) concern that a good first turn from the Eldar would be something the Necrons just couldn’t recover from. Let’s see how it went, then work out where we go from here.

We went through most of this last week, but to summarise so you don’t have to click back, the rundown is as follows.
