They are swift and relentless engines of murder that know neither pity nor remorse. Differing somewhat in scale and form, Tomb Stalkers and other similar constructs primarily serve in guarding their Necron masters during their sleep; eternally vigilant in their search for intruders that might disturb the dread tombs in which they slumber. Adaptive Subroutines –This is the big one that hurts, as there isn’t really a replacement for this capability and it would be real good in this book. No more advance/charge Wraiths. If you still need a little extra help with enemy vehicles, it’s time to call on the C’tan Shard of the Void Dragon . Its particle-splitting spear makes the lightest work of tanks and other fighting vehicles with Anti-Vehicle 2+ , and its sweep profile will melt infantry too. Here are a couple 1000pt lists created around some of the builds discussed above to give you an idea of what can be accomplished on what budget: That’s Not Rust, It’s Blood Emergency Invasion Beam – No longer needed because of changes to how the Night Scythe and Monolith work.

If all models in that unit have their starting number of wounds, but that unit is not at its Starting Strength, one destroyed model is returned to that unit with one wound remaining.Spotted on Imgur, we’ve got a snapshot of how the Canoptek Doomstalker and Lokhust Heavy Destroyer will play. These models first appeared on the army-wide picture showcasing all of the Necron support that’s coming. Let’s go over the details on each one. If you meet that, you reveal the protocol chosen for that round and choose one of the two effects. Any unit with the Command Protocols ability then benefis from that effect while it is within 6″ of a Necron CHARACTER. The Protocols

Great ability, unclear if what it carries is worth it, and as a Dedicated Transport you have to bring someone to ride. The ability is that once per turn you can trigger the same effect as the Protocols of the Undying Legions stratagem on a nearby Necron Warriors unit, which is very good. However, 10 Necron Warriors with one Character (which is what it carries) might be a challenging sell (no room for Cryptothralls, boo), so we’ll have to see what the cost looks like. Big Vehicles

Light Cover from Eternal Guardian. This one’s super interesting, because there’s a huge tension inherant in it. If you’re worried about getting alpha striked you might choose to line it up for the first turn – but then if you end up going first it probably does nothing for many of your units. I do also find it amusing that performing a charge doesn’t switch this off. If the number of dice in that pool is greater than or equal to the Wounds characteristic of any of the reassembling models, select one of those models to be Reanimated. A Reanimated model: After both sides have deployed, but before you have determined who will have the first turn, you must assign a different one of the command protocols below to each of the first five battle rounds, and note this down secretly on your army roster. As with the other forces in the new edition of Warhammer 40,000, the Necrons have six Detachment-specific Stratagems. The Protocol of the Hungry Void Stratagem is your go-to for slicing your way through the galaxy’s younger races.
