      I’m not exactly up to date on my 40k lore, do the necrons have some kind of disposable chaff unit now? Back when I played they were the tankiest army in the entire game, which definitely doesn’t work for a game in which you are usually carving through a massive mob

      ::: Space Marine 2 spoilers I was, of course, pretty gutted that they never showed up in the latter part of the campaign. I was playing through the campaign with a friend that doesn’t know the setting much but who loves Terminator, and the instant I saw the signs of necron stuff going on I thought I was going to get to see him become Power Armour Kyle Reese :::

        Basic Necron Warriors have always been innumerable and disposable.Their number is legion, their name is death. Lorewise gauss weapons shred their armor i guess, but it’s also been inconsistent as they are not always high AP on the table.

        Usually if Necron Warriors are portrayed as unstoppable killing machines it’s because they were in their pre-5th edition lore where they were on par with space marines, and limited in number because it’s always on a Tomb World that is just starting to wake up.
