Lychguard with Scythes should get Fight on Death
It would be unequivocally the best way for them to be balanced as a choice.
Different from shieldguard- glassy, but dangerous to enemy melee armies. Offering us a novel answer to fast blender infantry other than a wall of scarabs hiding out of sight.
Tell me why I’m wrong.
Having one of them do it in obeisance rules- but having them all do it on a 4+ would be better and make way more sense. Or maybe have it apply if they remained stationary last turn.
Best work leaving gift I’ve received
This is the best work leaving gift I think I’ve received, I was caught off guard as I wasn’t expecting anything as I’d only been there a year. I’m nervous for the move as it’s a big step but at least I’ll have my immortals to keep me safe, and the wine to get plastered.
Got given a £30 Warhammer gift card which I think I used well to get my first squad of immortals.
My roster is now:
1 x Necron combat patrol box
1 x chronomancer (gonna proxy to a plasmancer for my immortals)
5 x immortals
We getting there slowly but surely, hopefully soon I can show off my full army!
With some rules for 11th revealed, have these rarely used models become more viable?
Greetings Overlords and Crypteks,
I'm wondering with the reveals for 11th, if some units that are hardly ever seen would become more viable without datasheet or points updates:
* Geomancer: with the update to deepstrike and ingress moving to 8 inches instead of 9, does this increase the value of the no reserves bubble of 12 inch at all? Likewise does the pinned ability offer more a significant debuff now that charges and engagement has changed?
Edit: ignore the deepstrike portion of this, as people have pointed out, it's still a 9 inch charge. I forgot they have to go base to base.
* Macrocytes: are these guys now worth something more at all? I cannot find any value outside of maybe paring them up with Spyders so the claws hit on 3s.. but I can't see how that's added value.
* Annihilation barge: with the change to flying this becomes more mobile, and perhaps the new terrain layout and rules around objectives and terrain will force more grouping, making the Tesla jumping lightning effort more valuable?
* Obelisk: does the movement debuff become better vs melee armies, and does it add more value vs flying units, forcing them to pay more movement tax to get into the right position? Is that at all valuable? Also flyers that make shoot and scoot moves like landspeeders might be more impacted? Also being able to fly through terrain is a soft buff?
* T Vault: same as Obelisk, does the Flying over terrain change benefit this enough to make it viable?
* Triarch pretorians: does the change of charge rules and deepstrike distance buff these guys, along side the reroll charges? I can't do the math myself but Google tells me it's about 67% succesful 8 inch charge with rerolls, meaning you should be able to get these guys in more often than not.
To be clear, im not convinced the changes will make these units more viable, but I'm open to the idea some smart players might be able to see something I'm missing.
Which C’tan should I take in a 1000pt one day tournament?
I don’t want to be too sweaty, I’ll likely have some warriors with Orikan and some destroyer units (haven’t made the list yet!)
ATTENTION NOBLES, WAVEFORM AUDIO OF HIGHEST QUALITY IS AVAILABLE
By Szarekhs bones this is some good stuff…
Finally got my first C'tan model today
It's completely unpainted right now I plan to paint it soon enough
Oltyx and as the viltrumite panel with slight spoilers for twice dead king
I worked on this for a while but don’t actually have anyone to send this to so I thought why not post it on the greatest 40k subreddit ever conceived

Lokust heavy destroyer painted
As mentioned on the title, I painted my lokust heavy destroyer, very happy with it but still trying to improve more on it for my next one.
Oltyx as my Translocation Overlord!
Paintjob a bit scuffed but it will do for now. How many easter eggs can you find? :D
A token of appreciation before we Technopriests start reclaming archeotech from your tombs again tomorrow
Good evening soulless husks,
I have just finished painting my Shard of the Omnissiah the Void Dragon and I couldn't be happier with how it turned out! I've always been interested in Necrons (go figure) and this model in particular is probably my favourite in all of 40k, so I really wanted to give it all the effort it deserved.
In addition, this was a very bittersweet model for me to paint: I started playing 40k thanks to a shop called Create and Play in Augsburg which sadly had to close definitely about two months ago... The Hypercrypt battleforce was their final 40k box still on the shelf on the final day, so after eyeing it for quite a while I bit the bullet and finally purchased it. So in a way, this is my tribute for the last few years of fun that I owe to this awesome game shop that I'll miss a ton!
For the paintjob: I was really inspired by Elminiaturista's Nightbringer, and I highly recommend you to check his patreon! His guides really helped me a ton.
Anyway, can't wait to return the Sankhotep dynasty to its tomb, so...
So long and thanks for the Archeotech!
Immortal paint scheme help
What do you guys think for this Tesla immortal? I’m doing a test model for how I want to paint the rest. I like it a fair amount, the lightning effect down below isn’t the best tho 😂
Thoughts on the base?
Decided to go for something bright so I decided to go for this crazy bright alien pink grass initially I wanted to go for mordant earth with green magma
What is the maximum number of warriors I can revive during a phase using Reanimation Protocols?
Saw a video y which the revive 9 wounds by I don’t get how
Trazyn the Infinite Voiceover -- re-dubbing Hammer and Bolter
This is my take on what Trazyn should sound like!
Love the original VO for this, but for me, Trazyn has a distinct theatricality and grandeur to him that I thought could have been scaled up a bit more in his "Hammer and Bolter" appearance from a few years back. So, I gave the Collector of Solemnace a little bit of a vocal refresh!
Let me know what you guys think, and if he sounds anything like you imagine him.
(Both Trazyn and Hesiod are voiced by me, original animation by Games Workshop. NO AI WAS USED IN THE MAKING OF THIS VIDEO)
Indomitus Necrons finished!
Finished off the last of my Indomitus models. Only 6 Canoptek wraiths, 10 warriors and a dooms day ark to go and I am free haha!!
What do you guys think?
The Storm Gathers
Quick and fun paintjob to get my take on Imotekh the Stormlord ready for the table
Trazyn GIFs I made
for the animation where trazyn is dancing, I used terminal montage’s dancing ganondorf as a base. feel free to take them, as that is what trazyn would do.
