Recent hobby project nearly done - I need more characters..

The idea for my army as it stands at the moment: The third (redundant, useless, usually a priest) brother in the ruling family of a Necron dynasty has woken to find that he has, by accident, become the last survivor. He's joined by his good rocking buddy: one of the highly unpopular Sensei, who is masquerading as a Rogue trader. They have a scheme to loot old family crypts for leftover tech that they can sell to the Imperial house in return for flecks of Auramite.






Looking forward to testing next weekend. Wish me luck!

Cool dudes make fleets for their 30k armies so when they play events they can beat the piss out of their opponents and then drop in to steal everything.

I'm play testing a ruleset for rogue traders - it's a very sandboxy design system where you build a rogue trader and a bodyguard of Armsmen, then you build an army out of a combination of allies and special characters (ie Assassins, Eldar Exodite rangers, agents, Navigators and so on). The armsmen I've built are gene-bulked human terran war veterans wearing artificer armour and combat shields, and as a special rule they can either have a mix of weapons or buy troop weapons normally reserved for allied troops choices - in this case, I'm taking gauss-flayers. The Necron list is currently in playtest and combines several of the previous lists but is restricted to represent a Necron dynasty at the beginning of its awakening. successive HQ choices are needed to unlock the different army options like fast attack etc. based on the seniority of the available necron leaders.

Where can we get the Necron rules? I've talked to the Slack about repurposing my Necrons for 30k but if there's actual rules that rules.

I'm completely Necron ignorant, but can robots have families/brothers?

Yes, because they are organics who have transferred their consciousness into robotic frames.

Necrons in 30k is one of the most sensible things, just like the Eldar. There's absolutely no chance that the great crusade never ran into them and/or never awakened some of their tombs.

It's criminal thatvFW refuse to explore and indulge in the xenos aspects of the heresy, thankfully we have competent and dedicated fans to do what gently caress world won't.

I mean, they were in 30k according to the lore but Cawl waited ten thousand years to reveal them.

Folks are joking about a novella that apparently decided that Cawl didn’t invent primaris but instead stole the idea from around the imperium and that the whole project was actually supposed to happen in 30k but the heresy derailed it.
