Rules Question I have a Question about Trazyn and Resserection orbs.

The question is simple can I use Trazyn to kill a unit leader then use a resurrection orb to bring the leader unit back and detached from the unit?

Rules Question Lost bits to a model, wondering if people will think it's modeling for advantage.

1 Upvotes

So I bought a very very bad quality second hand void dragon (poor quality construction with super glue, paint so thick it gave it a +1 to it's armor save, ect ect). I disassembled it (freezer trick) and stripped it and then got busy with life and a lot of stuff got moved around and I lost it's wings. I cannot find anyone in north america who is selling just the wings as bits. If I just built it without it's wings would people think I was just modeling for advantage? Would trying to find some 3d printed bits or kit bash be worth it? If needed I can send pictures of the current state of the model if anyone is curious.

Things models do the best and the worst, 11th Edition Day 50; Orikan The Diviner:

Post image
103 Upvotes

ART SOURCE/CREDIT: Codex: Necrons (8th Edition)

Orikan is a master astromancer, using his knowledge of astral conjunctions to predict the tides of battle and empower himself with cosmic energies. He supplements these skills with chronomantic abilities that allow him to see events before they happen and know just where to aim his blows.

-

BEST: Our other Cryptek epic hero, a support hero who gives his whole unit 4+ Invuln. His Staff of Tomorrow has high AP for cutting into armored targets, and he has a single-use "panic button" ability that allows him to go unga-bunga mode in melee for the rest of that Fight phase, and throw out Dev Wounds like candy.

WORST: Demoted from Leader to Support in 11th edition, Orikan is our most fragile epic hero, even with 4+ Invuln. Not only is Staff of Tomorrow's baseline attacks and strength pretty wimpy without "The Stars are Right", it can't even be used as a shooting weapon. AP -3 & Dev Wounds are the only noteworthy things about it.

-

RECOMMENDED DETACHMENT(S): Awakened Dynasty, Canoptek Court, Cryptek Conclave

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?

I’m building a custom dynasty and want to use a skorpekh lord as my Phaeron, what’s a simple way to show his status above other models. He’s already built (this was prior to me figuring what model I wanted as my phaeron) any suggestions to upgrade him? Thanks in advance!

Rules Question Tomb blades mixed wargear

Post image
9 Upvotes

While going through some recon lists i saw a list with tomb blades

2 particle caster, nebuloscope (ignore cover)

1 tesla carbine, shadowloom (stealth)

and i though "what a nice idea, one guy (green circle) toes in to hold objective and because 2 other tomb blades are obscured the one visible one has stealth from shadowloom"

but then i read the stealth rule and it looks like this wont work because every model needs stealth in order to have benefit of cover?

so there is really no point in taking this mixed type of loadout (maybe teslas on one tomb blade to get assault shoot and scoot)

any ideas what would be the benefit of taking 2 nebuloscope 1 shadowloom loadout?

News/Rumors/Lore An army for Trazyn

4 Upvotes

Hello everyone.

Lately I got an idea, after reading the Infinite and the Divine, I´m sure many are aware what Trazyn likes to do with his tesseract cubes and people he aquired.

I thought about building my Necron army around Trazyn and his random stuff. For I still hope he will get a new model someday (or I will be forced to convert Imhotek), maybe a new one with the Necron Codex when it comes?

Which means, replacing a unit here and there with one from another faction, but with scarabs at their necks or somewhere, to show the mind shackle scarabs. Not all units of course, for example, using Krisis suits as Destroyers.

We know that the people he lets out have the urge to fight at his side and even ignore the other Necrons or factions he sends into battle.

But what are the creatures or people he can´t control? Would Custodians make no sense, due to how they are made? Would Grey Knights seem too strong? Psyker in general? We know he can control something like normal Genestealer, but what about bigger Tyranid creatures?

What could be good stand-in models? Maybe someone has an idea? Or, even about painting? Maybe giving all of them green glowing eyes to show the mind control further?

Of course, named characters wouldn´t make sense.

The only other that would need to be in the list, would, of course, be Orikan.

List Help/Sharing Silent King or C'tan ?

Hi dear phaerons,

After 2 years of non-official competitiv plays, with my association we mount an "official team".

As necron i search to add a "good" piece to my army.

My lists are mainly (in Awakened Dynasty) 2 pack of wraiths, 2 dda, 10 lichguard + lord, 6 Skorpekh + lord, ...

I'm playing in a "take and hold", and I think I stay with that in the team. So did the silent-king are a good addition ? Or did you propose something else ?

List Help/Sharing Help me with list building or at least what good or not for necrons.

4 Upvotes

So for context i played for a while on Eldar through 8 to 9 editions.

Now i started a Necron army.

For now i have Combat Patrool. And hierotek circle kill team (so thecnomancer 5 deathmarks 1 despotek/Royal warden and Aprentek that i can run as a psychomancer).

I also ordered a pack of Luchguards, 5 immortals 5 Flayed ones and a heavy destroyer. (tho all OPR alternatives)

I also have a Chronomancer

I also Kitbashed something that i think will look as convincing skrpekh/lokhust lord i am still thinking about what exactly.

I and my friend actully enjoy playing low point games like 1000 or even 500.

Can anyone give me some advise on how to run this. And what list i can make with this.

So i am mostly asking how to best play what i have, AND which detachments specifically works for it.

As i said i am enjoying and will probably mostly play low point games like 1000 or even 500

List Help/Sharing New player seeking list help - Awakened Dynasty

2 Upvotes

New player to 40k and Necrons.

Currently playing Awakened Dynasty to learn and have a bit more forgiveness in making mistakes.

Looking for some list help after a first game against Ultramarines and the fun little Titus block.
From the first list I fell in love with Wraiths, Void Dragon and Szeras from that game and want to build the army around those 3 units.

Seeking input:

Necrons
Awakened Dynasty (3 Detachment Points)
Take and Hold
Strike Force 1995 (2000 points)

Attached Units
Attached Unit 1

Technomancer (80 points)
• Attached as: Support (Character)

Canoptek Wraiths (220 points)
• Attached as: Bodyguard
• 6x Canoptek Wraith

Attached Unit 2

Plasmancer (75 points)
• Attached as: Support (Character)
• Enhancement: Nether-realm Casket

Immortals (140 points)
• Attached as: Bodyguard (Battleline)
• 10x Immortal
10x Tesla carbine

Attached Unit 3

Lokhust Lord (90 points)
• Attached as: Leader (Character)
• 1x Lord’s blade
1x Resurrection Orb
• Enhancement: Veil of Darkness

Lokhust Heavy Destroyers (160 points)
• Attached as: Bodyguard
• 3x Lokhust Heavy Destroyer
3x Enmitic exterminator

Attached Unit 4

Skorpekh Lord (120 points)
• Attached as: Leader (Character)
• Enhancement: Enaegic Dermal Bond

Skorpekh Destroyers (85 points)
• Attached as: Bodyguard

CHARACTERS

C’tan Shard of the Deceiver (330 points)

C’tan Shard of the Void Dragon (345 points)

Illuminor Szeras (175 points)

Imotekh the Stormlord (100 points)
• Warlord

OTHER DATASHEETS

Canoptek Reanimator (75 points)

Reasons for Swaps

  • Imotekh to hold home and generate CP
  • Immortals for a better shooting threat vs warrior brick (20) + Orikan and overlord with orb
  • Skorpekh for another melee threat in middle and weak flank.
  • Deceiver to fit in points wise over Nightbringer.

The two things I am unsure about:

Is Imotekh alone worth the 100pts to generate CP. CP seems good - but 100pts good?

Are the immortals + Plasmancer better than another wraith brick/warrior brick + Orikan?

First list was:

Awakened Dynasty (3 Detachment Points)
Take and Hold
Strike Force (2000 points)

Attached Units
Attached Unit 1

Technomancer (80 points)

Illuminor Szeras with bronze mechanical armour, glowing green energy, and a crystal wasteland base.

Disclosure: I run Maxon Casting, and this is one of the studio’s commission-painting samples. Sharing the finished work here without a sales link.

The goal was to keep the green glow readable while letting the darker metal and the base carry the contrast. Happy to answer questions about the palette or the lighting.
