from rogue trader too deathwatch and even something i been reading in dark heresy. there a petty heavy forshadowing of necron overall.

not saying its going too be enemy nr1 just saying its somewhat there. even with DW and its heavy shadowing of necron you have at least 3 or 4 other active treats going on without counting the necron (and as of now there no rules for them anyway)

Other than them being a possible (but never spelled out) truth behind the Tyrant Star, I fail to see all this foreshadowing of which you speak.

@Morangias

Necron constructs appear in a DW adventure, there's the pictures in the Designer Diary (which I'm kind of sad about... it would have been cooler to leave out the one with the Lord entirely and put the Heretek examining the Scarab in a later post so attentive fanboys can go "Hey, what's that...? WHEE, Necrons!") and there were a few other sources that heavily hinted at Necrons - I believe it was the Calixian Xeno-researcher alternative rank from the Inquisitor's Handbook whose introductory quote read pretty much like he discovered that he happened to be on a tomb-world.

This seems very much a 'shades of grey' sort of game where there aren't any truly 'good guys' but the layers of 'bad guy' range from the selfish and opportunistic trying to survive down to the most debased and depraved chaos worshippers imaginable (and the daemons too).

It'll be a nice change from the absolutes in DH and DW.

Absolutes? I can't see acolytes as abolute evil and even less as absolute good.

i think he meant that chaos in DH or DW was always seen and black and evil.

not as in BC where you have a more. i do what i do just too get by kind of mind set (do i deal with that deamon who i is my best chance of excape or dont i deal with him and try my luck on my own skill. do i serve or do i lead. do i follow or do i command that kind fo thing

not saying you couldn`t make chaos followers intresting in DH or DW but as soon as there was the 'there followers of chaos" that lead too "they could all die, no mather what"

Yeah, barring certain very Radical campaigns, it was hard to portray Chaos worshipers as deep, interesting characters in DH, mostly because Acolytes tend to deal with Chaos worshipers at gunpoint. Radical Inquisitors, recidivists and other scum who might question the exact form of the Imperium but don't question it's very existence - sure, I can engage my DH players in meaningful non-violent interactions with them. But actual Chaos worshipers? My players tended to deal with them harshly without asking for reasons.
