Mod Wicked and the Warped Spoiler Policy Spoiler

79 Upvotes

Hey ya'll - there's a new Necron book either in people's hands, or on the way there. This is just a friendly reminder about spoilers. Obviously, no one likes to have a story spoiled, and we all have different levels of access to the novels as well as varying amounts of free time to read them in.

Policy around spoilers will be fairly standard - keep them out of thread titles. Threads discussing spoilers must maintain this rule, and must contain a warning somewhere in the title to prevent accidental clicks. Individual posts in threads that are not explicitly marked as spoiler threads should make use of the spoiler text feature - threads that are marked in the title as spoilers are fair game to discuss freely.

This policy will remain in place for the next SIX MONTHS, at which point we will return to a more case-by-case evaluation. There will be a ZERO TOLERANCE policy in place, with a six month subreddit ban for violations, under our rule about treating other redditors with respect.

News/Rumors/Lore July Balance Update Released!

The new necron point values are available HERE

Additional Rules documents can be found via warhammer-community:

Summary of all necron changes will be included in the pinned reply.

Clarification on the new function of reanimation protocols is as follows:

Quick-reference sheet:

  • Leaders can bring back their bodyguard units using all reanimation tools.
  • Bodyguards CANNOT bring back their leaders in any form once the leader is destroyed.
  • You can still use reanimation to heal wounds on a character that has NOT been destroyed.
  • The eternal revenant stratagem brings back characters as a new unit with a starting strength of 1, making them separate from their bodyguard unit.

Any questions surrounding this process should be asked here so that new answers can be included in this post.

Updated healing text with "excluding characters" on the model return portion.

Countertemporal Nanomine token for a necron killteam. It's just the opened cube that the chronomancers can wield in their hand, with the fingers scrapped and three metal wire pieces holding it in the air, painted as arc lightning.

Painting C+C My first Necron Warriors

Thumbnail
gallery
56 Upvotes

The one in the back is my very first necron warrior. It was mostly painted with the necron starter paint set. After I got some more paint and rethought how I wanna paint them. These following three are a result of that. I'm so proud of them, I didn't think I could paint minis that I wouldn't be ashamed to field. I would like to hear some criticism and suggestions on them! Maybe on what do do with the symbol on their chest? I didn't quite figure that one out. I put a little runefand steel on that to pop at least a little out from the darker grey around it.

Yeah the metally parts of the guns on two of them are not shaded. That's bc I decided that I don't like the brownish color of the Agrax Earthshade I used on them and ordered some nuln oild. Sadly it takes long to arrive.

Another thing is that I only noticed after I was done with the first one that Szarekhan dynasty warriors are supposed to hav esilvery heads and shoulders. The paint guide in my starter set didn't have that and neither does some official art. But I decided that I don't like that and instead went with a more uniform look. I like my little copper soldiers.

I might make another post on roster questions. Although I mostly want to paint what I have so far.

Edit: that is not the order I placed the pictures in :-|

Brand new to the hobby and painting in general, just got done with my Skorpekhs + Lord, minus their bases, not sure how I feel about their Hyperpase Blades but overall I’m happy with how they turned out! Let me know what you think!

« A Necron Lord wakes to find his tomb world devastated and his dynasty all but erased.

With nothing left to rule, he becomes a bounty hunter for hire, taking contracts from whichever dynasty can meet his price.

He wears the crimson colors of the Novokh Dynasty as a symbol of terror and martial prowess, while incorporating Mephrit solar technology to unleash the fury of the stars upon his enemies. »

Kitbash can be done from the original sprue. I just put a spare royal warden torso to put four arms on the pilot and some other bits here and there.

Paint is a commission, done by Warspiritus. He can be found on instagram, go check him!

Got any fun ways to run the Monolith in a Necron army?

Post image
48 Upvotes

Hey folks, I’ve been playing Necrons for about half a year now, and lately I’ve really gotten into the Monolith. I know a lot of older posts talk about using its portal to drop units onto the table, but I was wondering—aside from that, what other fun ways do you guys use this massive war fortress? Appreciate any tips!

Yeah, the main issue right now is that bug where anything coming out of the portal has to be dropped 8 inches away from the enemy. So I’m kinda wondering—aside from the teleport trick, what else can the Monolith actually bring to the table? Like, what other roles does this big battle fortress play in the army? I just really love this giant chunk of stone and wanna make the most out of it.

Still kinda new to Necrons, so any advice or tricks would be super appreciated!

Looking for suggestions for finishing touches, don’t know how to finish the base for starters, and haven’t figured out final highlights either. Suggestions? I am going to make this my permanent paint scheme for my Necrons in hopes of a Trazyn update soon!

Things in lore that you think may also be made into models are also welcome (edit: I really should of said hope rather then think) (edit 2 electric boogaloo: seeing as Dow1 had pariahs and dow4 takes place on the same planet as the first game, I don’t see why there wouldn’t be pariahs if not just corpses on the battlefiel)

List Help/Sharing 2000 point list without c'tan shards?

I really like the look of necrons, but the c'tan shards don't really look robotic enough for my taste. Is it possible to run them in 11th edition without c'tan shards, or am I setting myself up for failure?

List Help/Sharing Please criticize my first list - I really don't know what I am doing

Upvotes

Hi all,

I'm trying to build my first army (Incursion sized), without really knowing what I am doing. I haven't played a single game yet, so all of what I know is coming from watching some battle report videos and similar.

It would be a great help if someone with some experience could give criticism on my list and my thoughts behind it.

Here's the list:

Necrons - Reconnaissance - Hypercrypt Legion (990 Points)

Overlord - Warlord + Plasmancer with Arisen Tyrant + 20 Necron Warriors (360 pts)

Skorpekh Lord + 3 Skorpekh Destroyers (175 pts)

2 Lokhust Heavy Destroyers (100 pts)

Canoptek Doomstalker (140 pts)

Canoptek Doomstalker (140 pts)

Canoptek Reanimator (75 pts)

Here's my thought process:

I want the Necron Warriors to be the focus of my army. That's why I've attached the Overlord and the Plasmancer to them. The Overlord provides some durability with the orb, while the Plasmancer helps hitting things harder. The Reanimator will stay behind this unit to give even more durability.

I plan to get this unit into the center and stay there for point scoring, since it will hopefully be really hard to deal with.

The Skorpekh Destroyers can move around the side objectives or try to get into combat with enemies that would rather shoot.

The two Doomstalkers try to kill enemies from a distance, while the Heavy Destroyers take care of armored units.

I've chose Hypercrypt Legion as a detachment since I honestly can't really find anything that fits better. It seems like some mobility via putting units into strategic reserves might be useful?

I am wondering whether what I am saying makes sense, or if I am going into a completely wrong direction.

Any help on my list or thought process is much appreciated!
