Dawn of War - Necrons Theme

' They .. they are everwhere. On the North, West and other directions .. There is no way to escape. By the Emperor - I'm thinking about retreat... But.. but there's no hope. All our 212th Cadian Division has been destroyed, when we had attack the first line of the Necrons forces. Althought they are moving slowly - they'll get us. Without mercy, without any feeling - they'll kill any soldier, tank, bunker and officer. They won't stop. They won't stop until we'll all lie in our blood. It's a question of time ... of time...

Fighting necrons with the IG, even when you have artillery and vastly outnumber them, still feels like trying to fight an army of scissors with an army of paper, and hoping you have enough sheets of paper that the scissors jam.

Yeah i tried IG after playing Necrons and after a couple battles i just said screw it, on a side note the Orks in my Necron campaign are while severely slowed down (i took the spaceport from them) are a massive threat, since owning space marine, Eldar, and Tau territory means a head on fight is assisted suicide.

Radical Larry the Mailman My Favourite thing to do playing as the Necrons. The best thing about it was you could do it twice. Alternatively I would use the Pariahs all the time. They put a permanent speed debuff for every hit. You don't have to kill the enemy, just keep hitting them until you're satisfied they won't run you down and laugh as that already slow Baneblade, Landraider etc. slow to the point a glacier is faster. The best thing about it was using it online was a blast. People outright refused to delete their heavy units that were now useless because they were so far out of the way their base was just too squishy.

Non aristocrat Necrontyr.* While their quanity has lessened for a variety of reasons, should their empire fully awaken, the rest of the 40K universe is doomed. Not even Chaos would be able to stop them, since they possess the means of shutting the Immaterium off from the Materium completely. Even if they didn't do that, their mere existence can starve the Dark Gods and Daemonkind to extinction.

+lordlossize “Enclave” GG If this was still third edition I would agree with you. But Matt Ward showed up in 2011 and retconned much of the Necron backstory. Instead of being this ominous, mysterious, endless legion led by living gods, they're now a set of dozens of fractured empires crippled by infighting. The C'tan were neutered, now simply slaves of the Necrons, an infinitesimal fraction of their old power. They are literally Tomb Kings in space, and they will never be anything more than a thorn in the side of the Imperium. It's a damn shame I agree, I thought the Necrons would be an excellent motive force for the plot, something that would move the 40k Universe out of the Imperium-Chaos centric stagnation but GW abandoned that idea.

[@Oops-All-Ghosts]

This is all Matt Ward's fault. We were perfectly happy with soulless, monstrous automata trapped in the hands of uncaring star-gods, but nooooo, he just had to give them feelings. Mind you, I don't mind the idea of the Lords being sapient. That already fits the basic shape of the lore as it was pre-Ward. But this fixation on going back to flesh and blood completely defeats the point of the Necrons' early arc--that is, their struggle against their own extremely short lifespan, and the utter fragility of their flesh vs. the psychic onslaught of the Old Ones.

[@zillafire101]

+Snowskeeper Ferenczy I concur. I feel like instead of trying to go to flesh, they should be experimenting on using other races to create new Necrons, to keep their population up. It would not only be cool to see what Crypteks could do with a Tau-cron or Human-cron, but also be a cool way to bring back the Pariahs.

[@Oops-All-Ghosts]

zillafire101 They have no need to keep the population up; upon being destroyed, Necrons are returned to the Tomb World, where they are repaired. Pariahs are humans with the Pariah gene (makes them immune and abhorrent to psykers), which was seeded across the universe by the Deceiver.

I did it. You have to be very slow with expansion first, i.e taking a single province and building it up to full defense. Eventually some of the weaker factions like the Eldar, and Chaos will be weeded out and you just want to continue stronghold like building. When there are around 2 factions left, make a break for one of the strongholds, just rapidly move for it and defend your territories to the tooth and nail. Build up a fortification using mostly fire warriors, then fully upgrade and research your tau base. Use your honor guards and upgrades from all the defenses to assault initial bases surrounding you and slowly work your way up using wave attacks of Kroot, Vespid, Hammerheads, and Fire Warriors. Then, move for the second stronghold and conquer the world!

[@PeteTheGrouch]

@@diepssuarez2676 In all my playthrough experience, I found in the double base missions that you should basically ALWAYS try to take one of them down within the first 10-15 of the match starting; otherwise, soon as the computer gains any type of momentum, they just snowball beyond the point of control.

Rush XV88 broadsides asap. As they're the only mid-game unit capable of keeping up against the necron.

[@funnydreadking9237]

The GW wanted to make the necrons more diverse and make them more different from the tyranids, but in the process they changed what did not need to be changed, lords aristocrats are good, the lord from xenology was cool, but changing the motivation and Pokemon Ctan,abandoning the old storylines (Pariahs, Abbadon and C'tan) is bad the solution, because of this, the necrons are again similar to another faction (Eldar), it was also not worth giving up horror themes(The GW themselves understood that, which is why there is much more horror in the new necrons now).

You're welcome ;) The Pariah gene was said to be planted among humans' genetic material by one of the C'Tan, who foresaw a potential use for them. The reason Pariahs are highly valued by both Necrons and the Imperium is that their negative warp presence, or lack of a 'soul', means they have the power to dull or even completely nullify a psyker's warp powers. Which makes them excellent weapons, particularly against races like the Eldar.

[@Newjourney14]

and everything is back as it should. Ive given up trying to keep up with all the new rules and such and have been slowly getting back into 3rd and 4th edition 40k. I will build my necrons with the old 3rd edition codex when they were pretty scary and ignore the new fluff just as the old fluff was ignored by MW. No crappy skimmer transports for me, my necrons are gonna ride into battle in a freaking death pyramid.

[@mileshill7196]

The new fluff is great, and those skimmers are a vital part of the army these days. Though with the new codex coming in a few weeks, who knows where things where go?

[@Newjourney14]

Miles Hill but it doesnt matter for me, I plat 3rd/4th edition.

[@Alpharius93]

I know I'm answering to a very old comment, but you can still play those Necrons if you want. "Severed empires" of souless machines with no emotions are just as canon as those dynasties that still keep a shadow of what they once were. And nothing keeps you from not taking certain units. If one day I have the time to collect Necrons, I know I won't be using many fast skimmers, but I'll enjoy using other units, as well as the classic ones.

[@KlifeRR]

wow, nice info, ty a lot :)

*Death intensifes*

[@VeeTpl]

Oh, I see.. You mean battle themes, while playing a skirmish? If so, be patient. I'll post them on YT, too.

[@aMR5AvDeG]

This theme like remix theme of Paul Romero Necropolis from Heroes 3.

[@rebelcybran5850]

Mixed with Sovereign theme from Mass Effect 1.

[@jspinac1]

About Damn Time.

[@theimperiumofman102]

We are unyielding, undying, we are the apex, the end, we are the necrons.

[@nenadmaric8294]

i just finished a sleep of more than 13 hours and first thing i did after waking up, i played this theme, long live sleeping, brothers and sisters!

[@ma5bgaming779]

The unification remix is a worthy successor I would say to this absolute tune

[@dr.feelgoodmalusphillips2475]

Yeah, no. Too much bass.

[@MattiBoi99]

In base game, yes for Necrons. In UA, Imperial guard scare the living shit out of me. They can just swarm so early on without any resource cost (conscripts). Whilst Necrons are certainly slow starters. Don't even get me started on Chaos Demons....

[@goose_dove]

chaos daemons are almost unstoppable except by late-game necrons. once you get the power income amplification, necrons are unstoppable.

[@Nobleshield]

I remember when GW first announced the Necrons as a race, my first thought was pretty much that they took the Fantasy Undead (Tomb Kings specifically, which wasn't its own army at the time) and put them into 40k.

[@StellarElite1]

Well, you're not wrong. Necrons are even more-so built off Tomb Kings ever since their retcon.

[@SinerAthin]

The Dakkanator Disappointing turn of events, that was ;/

[@Kemonokami]

I actually _like_ the new Necrons! It's one of the few good things Mat Ward actually did!

[@StellarElite1]

I agree, in all honesty. It gave the Necrons far more characterisation, and made them far less boring, since we already had Tyranids filling the role of speechless death-dealers hellbent on taking the galaxy for their own. And besides, there's a Tomb World made for the original Neccies anyway, so people who complain about the retcon are not only blind, but also fail to see it further than skin-deep.

[@SudoKnightlyNonsense]

Stellar Elite And the Necrons got Trazyn, best collector in the Galaxy and prankmaster extraordinaire.

[@garlee8223]

I heard similar music at Invader Gym. It really suits an invasion by evil aliens.

I like how this suitably menacing theme was recommended right next to a vid about a Gardevoir comparing "submissive" to "breedable"

[@cutebat99lol90]

Wow warhammer and nsfw pokemon Is like eating the pizza with pineapple

[@sametpsycho2587]

[@Dr.Manninton]

I play T'au usually in most everything in 40k but the Necrons are easily my second favorite faction, especially the Novohk Dynasty because murder is cool

[@Zealoth1800]

Before chaos ravaging throught galaxy , there is necrons walking around to purify all life

[@nalrashido]

There are rumors of the Necrons getting a new codex after the Blood Angels codex.

[@ColonelBragg]

I hope it turns out all the Tomb kings bullshit is just some scheme by the Outsider and the C'tan are back in charge and it turns out the Necrons are not using the warp to travel but some other form of ftl because Matt Ward is a idiot

[@nalrashido]

Matt ward no longer works with game workshop

[@ColonelBragg]

Miguel Castro Yeah i know hence the hope althou its a small gleam of hope because GW has a lot of other problems

[@nalrashido]

The price is a major one

[@ColonelBragg]

Miguel Castro I guess that is a issue for most younger people who want to play its never been a big issue for me but i would like for the costs to go down but i highly doubt that will ever happen

[@josephstalin6549]

[@Sangrenegra9]

All the assassins of the Culexus Temple are Pariahs. They are the rarest and most feared of the Imperium's assassins. Even among non-psykers their condition often generates panic and unease, while in Psykers it causes nothing short of blind horror. The Imperium also uses Pariahs for protecting certain Inquisitors, especially those who hunt psykers and daemons (to daemons, Pariahs are invisible).

[@Csp499]

Chaos, Imps, Dark Eldar, Nids... none of them sum up to Necrons in terms of sheer nefariousness.

[@josephstalin6549]

Typical Necrons the emos of the 40K universe

[@Enclavicon]

What makes you say that?

[@josephstalin6549]

For one necrons annoy me, hate life and destroy every single living organism they find

[@Pavell54]

Joseph Stalin Meh, they're no longer that. As far as I have understood they've become some kind of space egyptian skeleton dudes now. Which is worse imho, at least before they felt evil and threatening, now they're just yet another random alien race.

[@josephstalin6549]

Pavell54 Why? What happend to them?!

[@Pavell54]

Joseph Stalin As far as I know, some guy named Matt Ward who apparently also fucked up the Space Marines & Grey Knights decided they should just be pharaohs in space. The whole thing with their gods & space holocaust and whatnot has been more or less scrapped so now they're just a couple old ass alien metal guys who figured they should rule the galaxy and everyone in it. And since the man writes for Games Workshop they've made it official. I mean, they never were really original or what but if on top of that you remove their fundamental purpose...
