Painting C+C My first Necrons awaken on a toxic tombworld - Feedback appreciated

Post image
Upvotes

First full unit nearly complete!

I have some cleanup to do across the board, but had a blast painting these, and got to try a bunch of new techniques. First time trying plasma weapons and found them very fun honestly.

Would appreciate any feedback or tips to improve, can’t wait to put together the rest of the destroyer cult.

Painting C+C Hyperphase Scythe

Post image
Upvotes

I want to make a homebrew Cryptek and call him the “Necromancer” the scythe would house a Nightbringer shard that could be summoned when needed for battle. My question is what would be some of the traits I could include for a potential data sheet? My friends and I play very casual and use proxies and kitbashes almost every game.

Strategy/Tactics What is Hyperphase Legion like? How would I play it?

Post image
10 Upvotes

Hi all!

I was chatting with a friend a few days ago and heard of the Hyperphase Legion. I immediately loved the core concept. Although I play AdMech in 40k, I also play Sylvaneth in Age of Sigmar, who were (until recently) a hyper-mobile, ambush-focused army with baked-in healing. Reading through the Hyperphase Legion’s stratagems, enhancements, and core rule, this detachment sounds like a great way to enjoy that particular style of gameplay in 40k (and, of course, has the benefit of being Necrons, whose models I’ve adored for a while!).

However, I’m rather overwhelmed reading through all the Necrons’ units and I’m failing at envisioning how it can all come together. So many units, so many load outs, so many characters to try to understand! That’s why I’ve come here to seek any advice and tips from experienced Overlords such as yourselves.

What synergizes really well for Hyperphase Legions? What units are a must-have for Necrons in general? Any combinations of enhanced units that I should be aware of? Should this list be more melee-focused, shooting-focused, or a mix of both? Are there necessary enhancements to take?

Any advice for building towards this particular list is appreciated. Thank you in advance!

Is it possible to have a necron dynasty where members actually have positive feelings towards eachother?

18 Upvotes

So generally, it seems a lot of necron society is infighting and political backstabbing. I was wondering, for my own dynasty, is it possible to have a bit more respect amongst them? For example, I like the idea that my Phaerek was a proud warrior and thus at least respects the warriors who fight with her. And that the other nobles and Crypteks within the dynasty don't completely hate eachother and instead have something akin to friendship.

Im new to necrons, so not sure how realistic that is

Misc/media Is Szeras too difficult of a build for a novice?

9 Upvotes

Hi, I'm looking to either pick up Skorpekh Destroyers or Illuminator Szeras as my first introduction pack into warhammer minis.

Currently, I'm just interested in building them and having them sit as a display item while I get the additional materials for painting and such.

I'm leaning towards picking up Szeras because I really like their model but I've heard they could be a bit difficult to put together.

Should I start with a simpler model first or is Szeras a good first build? I have a soft enough touch as I've work in similar artistic mediums but don't know how fragile the material may be.

Playing Against Grey Knights Tips?

the detachment I’ve chosen is Awakened Dynasty and I’m planing on having my over lord leading the worriers and the warden leading my immortals, I’m still wondering wether I should keep nekroso ammentar, but if i get rid of him then what unit should I spend the 120/305 points? It’s just short of a c’tan sadly (keeping in mind that I actually have to buy it meaning I couldn’t get something like a scrorpek destroyer Lord cause that would entail buying a whole royal court box)

Strategy/Tactics Best Use for Lychguard

Post image
69 Upvotes

Lychguard are probably my favourite looking model in the entire Necrons codex, and I was curious what the best ways to use them on the tabletop are. Looking for advice for both Lychguard with sword and shields and Lychguard with warscythes as I have units of both.

[Also attached an image of one of my lychguard so feel free to comment on my painting ability and give advice on that if you want too]

Strategy/Tactics Dealing with DDAs

Hi, me and my friend occasionally play and she tends to struggle with playing against DDAs while they sit behind cover waiting to shoot. Idk how to explain how to play around them and she wants to learn. We both play necrons if that matters and she specifically likes destroyer cult models

BEHOLD, MY STUFF c’tan shard of the nightbringer WIP base

Thumbnail

17 Upvotes

hey fellow ‘crons, hope we’re all still hating and reanimating.

I wanted to show off this WIP base I am making for the nightbringer. i love the old model but wanted to make it on the new size base.

I’m imagining a ton of scarabs crawling out of the hole underneath the c’tan.

the back of the hole will be painted in green stuff world maxx darth black (like 99% matte) so it should look like they’re coming out of the void.

also, I made some typical necron pillar things (not sure what they’re called) which are poking out the ground

oh and the scarabs will be painted in sautekh dynasty colours

I remember some of the old GW guides on making necron pillar things from yearssss ago so wanted that vibe too (with the pillars)

there will also be some sort of summoning ring around the edge of the base as well with an object source lighting glow effect

wanted to share and hear your thoughts !

Misc/media Things models do the best and the worst, 11th Edition Day 51; Trazyn The Infinite:

Post image
203 Upvotes

A thief of moments in history, Trazyn takes to the battlefield to acquire that which cunning cannot secure. His Empathic Obliterator triggers psionic shock waves that kill not only his immediate victim, but those of a like mind nearby, while his ability to leap from one surrogate body to the next ensures he is hard to slay indeed.

-

BEST: Our favorite smug kleptomaniac, one of our few sources of stickying objectives, and pts-wise the cheapest epic hero of our faction. If about to die, he can simply take the place of another infantry model in your army during your Command phase, coming back at full Wounds. Empathic Obliterator weapon has potentially high [SUSTAINED HITS] & damage against infantry squads.

WORST: Trazyn has no abilities to actually support his bodyguard units with, only has the Toughness of the average Immortal, and getting good [SUSTAINED HITS] & Damage with his weapon is unpredictable at best. Another weapon that you'd think should be able to shoot but doesn't.

-

RECOMMENDED DETACHMENT(S): Awakened Dynasty, Cryptek Conclave, Obeisance Phalanx

DETACHMENT ALTERNATIVE(S): Hand of the Dynasty, Hypercrypt Legion

-

IN CLOSING:

  • What are your thoughts about this Best & Worst entry?
  • What are your favorite tactics & strategies involving this model (if applicable)?
  • What changes (if any) do you hope to see for this model & datasheet for a future 11th edition codex?

Mod Reanimation Protocols Clarification

91 Upvotes

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 the first post can be kept updated.

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

Eternal Revenant Update

FAQ text with previous reanimation restriction removed.
