There are many “utility characters” who give out buffs to nearby friendly models, and these guys are also a sound investment in the early days.
At the core, you’re looking to build a force that has some infantry troops, and someone to lead them. But I digress!Īrmies in 40k have got a lot of rules going on, as there are many layers of customisation to peel your way through. I basically built a pretty big army up in the time it took for the book to arrive, but you may want to play sooner, in which case an 8th edition Codex is possibly not an entirely wasted investment. When I first got my Necrons, I really liked the Lychguard models (not the basic troops, I might add!) so started there, while I waited for the 5th edition Codex to be updated for 7th edition. The best solution in that respect, then, would be to concentrate on getting the core basic infantry built and painted, while you wait for the book, though you could be waiting a long time. Now, some armies at the time I’m writing this don’t have a new book for 9th edition, and it would more than likely be a bit of a waste to buy an 8th edition book when it’s possible/probable that a new one is coming.
When you’ve decided what army you want to collect, the best first purchase is always going to be the Codex. This is largely because it was my very first army, back in 7th edition, and I have immense fondness for them, but also they have some very nice new models as part of being the major antagonist for 9th edition, so it’s quite flavourful for the new edition of the game. Okay, so having chosen an army, it’s time to build the list! Build me an army worthy of Mordor!įor the purposes of this exercise, I’m going to be building a Necrons army.
