Hope you enjoy learning about the necrons in this very special late halloween special, or perhaps this very special very early Halloween special.

  I liked how in Battlefleet Gothic Armada 2 Necron campaign just ends with them casually closing the Eye of Terror and basically removing Chaos from the Galaxy

  The Necron/Eldar dynamic is my personal favorite in 40k.<br>They&apos;re both incredibly arrogant and powerful races who destroyed themselves in their own hubris and respect each-other a lot more than they would like to admit.<br>Eldar were the weapons of the Old Ones, the Necrons were the weapons of the C&apos;tan.<br>The Eldar have at the apex of psychic might, the Necrons have the strongest realspace tech and they&apos;ve both achieved something bordering on immortality.<br>The painful thing is, with the Eldar mastery of psychic wraithbone tech they&apos;re probably the only ones in the galaxy able to give souls to inorganic entities (Necrons), while the Necrons are some of the few remaining god-killers who can free the Eldar from Slaanesh.<br>If they could put aside their ancient rivalry, Eldar/Necron galactic sweep would be a sight to behold, and the things they could achieve with absolute dominion over both the warp and realspace would be insane.

  Whenever i see your little guard guy at the beginning of the video i imagine him in the back of a storage room/ barracks recording his videos on break from fighting for the emperor.

  The Necrons really quickly became my favorite faction in 40k. It&apos;s cool to see anybody stand against the horrors of the 40k galaxy, but I love when Trazyn essentially says that they were once enslaved by actual GODS and they still managed to throw off their shackles and prevail, so they&apos;re not gonna lose in this shitty knockoff &quot;grimdark&quot; future that&apos;s actually much nicer than the war in heaven.

  The irony of the Necrons using the C&apos;Tan Shards to power a lot of their stuff is that they are basically shooting their own souls at their enemies.

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZzBbd6rRTo&amp;t=626">10:26</a> if anyone is wondering why the silent king (probably) shouldn’t have a model: one of, if not the greatest challenges the emperor faced during the pre-crusade era was shackling a shard of the void dragon under the surface of mars. Damn near killed him. <br><br>The silent king is the one who devised the weapon that shattered the void dragon to begin with… Necron power in lore is leagues above their power on the tabletop. Lore accurate silent king on tabletop would be a 2,000 point army in and of himself.<br><br>Other instances of necrons being overpowered:<br>- In the Twice Dead King: Ruin, overlord Djoseras one shots a warlord titan with a Tachyon Arrow. On tabletop a tachyon arrow does D6 damage.<br><br>- (Spoilers for the infinite and the divine) when the stars are right Orikan can turn into a transcendent C’tan (more or less)<br><br>- Trazyn has an uncorrupted clone of Fulgrim. Because he can.<br><br>- Necron pylons are the reason Cadia wasn’t a demon world from the get go. They just sort of held the warp back.<br><br>- Orikan can use time travel to save scum real life. He apparently also knows how to “become time” - whatever the hell that means. <br><br>- Synaptic weapons just sort of tell the target’s brain to die. They shoot rounds of pure information that forcibly enter the brain and hit the power button.

  The never-ending petty spats between Orikin and Trazyn always bring me joy. The court lawsuit was hilarious.
