Still in Destroyer land, theHexmark Destroyer is here. Honourable Combatant is fixed at 2 extra attacks rather than d3, but also otherwise stays stable. This is vastly more flexible than it used to be, and can be super helpful for getting a wounded character ready to re-join the fray.

Oh the Nightbringer. What makes that up? Representing the strict operational hierarchy of Necrons being coded into their very beings, you are now restricted in how you choose your warlord.
