Well it looks like the Necrons just got their first real Forge World lovings in over five years, in the form of a deadly bomber.
This thing obviously looks like the bigger brother to other scythe variants, and as you can see from the unpainted pic, contains parts from those kits as well.
But wait there is more, they even get a sweet realm of battle table tile section as well. Maybe to simulate a newly discovered tomb world perhaps?
Apparently all these models will be part of the upcoming Imperial Armour Volume Twelve: The Fall of Orpheus release. –Well they certainly have my attention! -MBG
From Forge World’s Site
The Night Shroud is a dedicated bomber, larger than the more numerous Night Scythe and Doom Scythe craft alongside which it operates, whose origins date back countless aeons to the lost battles of the War in Heaven.
The Night Shroud was built to carry a relic of that ancient and apocalyptic conflict – so-called Death Spheres – containment vessels imprisoning the merest fragment of anti-matter. This potent warhead is kept out of phase with the material universe until the sphere detonates, unleashing an energy blast capable of annihilating anything it touches.
The Night Shroud is a complete resin and plastic kit. Model designed by Daren Parrwood.
This model is available to pre-order now and will be despatched from Friday April 5th.
