so basically what we're saying is get rid of the entire old necron rule and replace it w/ void shield rule during end phase and regroup?

And remove the "and  lose all blast markers  if it succeeds" part from Phase Out.

I updated the pdf document to clear this up.  See here or on the Change doc thread.

is anyone else thinking this might be too big of a nerf to the necrons. the few games i played w/ the changes (prior to new void shield rule) everything seemed perfect. granted it was only about 4 games, but they were all really good games that could of went either way. i'm afraid necron formations will spend more time broken and marshalling then they will assaulting.
hopefully i'm wrong

I don't see it as a Nerf.  I think it's more a matter of adjusting things to make them less confusing, while still keeping it in line with what was actually intended for them.

actually, I did see a comment on this one.

It's always at the begining of the End phase, because it occurs before the rally checks are made.

I'm blind I suppose then as I didn't see anything. But I think that the wording is then seriously need of help. So my suggestion to clean it up as above stands then.

I think your suggestion is a good one.

Though I would suggest you write it up as what you think the final thing should look like, and take out the crossed out words and phrases.

I believe ALL offboard formations rally as normal, whether they are broken or not.

I believe that is correct.

Given this decision on formation regrouping, does anyone think this will overpower formations with the Necron ability?

My guess is no.

If yes, do you think we should up the price for the standard Phalanx?  If we're going to make a change, now is the time to do it.

I don't believe it will either. At most it should only influence BTS and the downsides to having a formation off board outweigh the benefits to regeneration IMO.
