WHOA MAMA IS THAT, T-T-T-THE OFFICIAL KRAKDUK HALLOWEEN EPISODE? YES, IT IS! Hope you enjoy learning about the necrons in this very special late halloween special, or perhaps this very special very early Halloween special. (also the episode isnt even that halloween themed other than like 2 sentences lmao)
When you’re doing the greater demons and demon princes can you do the rest of the demons too also daemon, ork, what does Warhammer feel the need to make the names feel 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. They'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. Eldar were the weapons of the Old Ones, the Necrons were the weapons of the C'tan. The Eldar have at the apex of psychic might, the Necrons have the strongest realspace tech and they've both achieved something bordering on immortality. The painful thing is, with the Eldar mastery of psychic wraithbone tech they'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. 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.
Pretty sure the creators have outright said that 40k could very easily be saved if the factions were willing to cooperate. The Humans and the Eldar could both quiet the Warp if they were given just a little breathing room, which is exactly what the Necrons could do. The Necrons would probably only be garden variety jerks like the humans if only they had organic bodies, which the Eldar and a resurrected Emperor could both do. And the Tau are the closest thing to a band of plucky teenagers so they would be the ones to actually unite everyone probably.
Necrons - "hey uh gods can you like help us out you know....stop this super space cancer thing?" Old ones - " how about no?" Necrons "Hey c'tan mind helpin??" Old ones - "surprised pikachu face"
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.
@@BeefstickFatherThis subject has been conscripted by the Ad Mechanicus to gather intel upon the enemies of the Imperium of Man, to eradicate this specimen is to hinder our mission. Commissar I would reevaluate my calculations if I were you.
The Necrons really quickly became my favorite faction in 40k. It'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're not gonna lose in this shitty knockoff "grimdark" future that's actually much nicer than the war in heaven.
Ya theyre a really fascinating faction. Of all the factions they technically fell the hardest, but unlike the eldar they actually have a feasible way they could theoretically get close to their old power. Plus its always funny to read them being dismissive of the 40k crazies lol.
@@KrakDuk Yeah, I know everybody calls the tyranids the most likely winners of 40k but I think the Necrons deserve that title. I like to imagine that it wasn't the Tyranids or Chaos that the Emperor was afraid of, he was scared of the Necrons. Ferrus Manus must have been traumatic.
@@classarank7youtubeherokeyb63 I'm not so certain about that. Everyone expects a big Necron revival, but I think a lot of the aftermath of the big sleep points to the fact that it's not going to happen to the degree the Necrons expect, or at the very least not in a way their faction will find desirable. Many of the tomb worlds were destroyed, many of them are defunct, many of them produce damaged, barely functional Necrons. And of the ones that did wake up, you still have things like Destroyer cults and the Flayer virus that, as much as they are useful when applied properly, don't bode well for the survival of the Necron royalty or the culture of their species. I don't think Szarekh would call a bunch of insane robots floating around a dead galaxy a "win" for his people. I think that's a large part of why he's worried about the Tyranids making the galaxy uninhabitable and is funneling millions of people into Szeras' research. The monkey's paw is furling, and they're not as immortal or timeless as they believed they were.
@@Raptorman0205 yeah but how much is really harmed tho like 20% or something, cause the infinite empire numbers are equal to humanity, so I'm willing to wager a necron, beats a guardsman, so like it's not damage over the great sleep that hurts their odds but more the infighting
10:26 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. 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. Other instances of necrons being overpowered: - 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. - (Spoilers for the infinite and the divine) when the stars are right Orikan can turn into a transcendent C’tan (more or less) - Trazyn has an uncorrupted clone of Fulgrim. Because he can. - Necron pylons are the reason Cadia wasn’t a demon world from the get go. They just sort of held the warp back. - Orikan can use time travel to save scum real life. He apparently also knows how to “become time” - whatever the hell that means. - 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.
well the Synaptic weapons are basically Neurotoxin Laser Beams, it disables neurons in your body and if your brain gets hit, your pretty much brain dead. also both Eldar and Imperium have their own flavor of Neuron killing weapons, except the Necron ones can also be cranked up in power to become a Death ray if needed.
Except Emperor fought C'Tan hand to hand with his sword. While silent king had to rely on his army and technology. About "overpowered": - About Orikan - chaos cultist can become demon prince. Whats the big deal - There are tons of primarch clones. Mostly made by Bile. They are not even close to originals - Cool. Aside from Emperor there are a lot if Imperial worlds, where monasteries hold warp rifts at bay - Orikan also loses to Trazyn and other people a lot. Ultran can mess his prophesies a lot - And ork weapons shoot gretchin though warp, Imperial weapons destroy soul, Tau weapons destroy every biological life on a planet. Everyone has some cool shit
@@TheGroboid the Fulgirm clone that Trazyn the infinite aka the unliving embodiment of the British museum aka the galaxy’s greatest archivist/kleptomaniac has, is the only perfect clone of a primarch ever made.

When people ask me my favorite Warhammer Faction I always need to clarify: Lore Wise- Necrons One I'd want to be in universe- Salamanders One I want to RP as- Orks
@knight_lautrec_of_carim I love the stories of Salamanders standing up to other loyalist Space Marine chapters and reminding them of what's really important. That one story about finishing the Iron Hands quote "the flesh is weak [but deeds endure]" really stands out to me. My college roommate played mechanicus, so the utter disregard of humanity also stood out to me in stark contrast to the way Salamanders defend it.
Also, the teleportation as part of the reanimation protocol appears as a bright green flash. But if a necron is damaged to the point where they can't be teleported for whatever reason, they'll self destruct, exploding in a bright green flash. So, you can't ever know if you killed a necron or just wounded it. Also also, tyranids avoid necrons firstly because there's no biomass to be had on necron worlds, and secondly because necron weapons tear tyranids apart at the atomic level, so they can't reclaim the biomass they lose
"Also also, tyranids avoid necrons firstly because there's no biomass to be had on necron worlds, and secondly because necron weapons tear tyranids apart at the atomic level, so they can't reclaim the biomass they lose" * a Tyranid fleet is heading straight for your planet "OH NO" *They divert course at the last moment "Thank the Emperor!" *Mechanical yawning in the distance...
I really knew next to nothing about 40k lore. I played Space Marine 2 and found your videos a week or so before launch. Dude I'm loving the lore and your videos. You speak of it so passionately and make it really entertaining. Keep up the great work!!
Dude I just have to say you somehow managed to keep your drawings relatively simple, but they still capture that immense aesthetic that is 40k. You really outdo yourself man!!
Great episode dude, when grimdark has so much serious "LOOK HOW EVIL THIS IS" stuff in it its good to have a few people just dork out and talk about how ridiculous (and cool) it is as well. Keep up the great work.
Necrons are my FAVORITE faction, dude. I LOVE these guys. Their esthetic, their lore, their reanimation aspect. 10/10 loved the video. I'm genuinely excited to see what you do for the others. Make sure to include the Eternity Gates! Mortal men would call them gates to hell, for sure!
He has two sub-minds dedicated to running thirteen separate playthroughs of various pokemon games on his central processor at all times. Some (Orikan) have pointed out that this is an utterly stupid use of resources, but Trazyn always goes on a rant about 'art' whenever its brought up so nobody bothers questioning it anymore. Also, Squirtle, 100%. I cant explain it, he just looks like a Squirtle kinda guy.
Yo Krak you've really gotten me more invested in a bunch of the warhammer lore, def one of the top 40k tubers out there right now it's perfectly mixed fun and actual lore great stuff dude keep it up and thanks for the vids!
I love your videos so much. Your cool art and simple way of explaining make 40k really easy to follow. Can't wait to see how your channel evolves from here (hopefully no wings or gun hands)

Love the detail of Trazyn having a pokeball on his bell^^ Btw can you make a video about the Dark Age of Tecnology pls? I love that "segment" of humanity lore
@@coolio6855 yeah its scary but when you are facing against a old robot that thinks he's still "alive" and mistake you as a necron but differend color and invited you to breakfast. In short a robot with dementia😂
@@coolio6855 I wouldn't want to face that either. I wouldn't want to face anything that exists in 40k. But at least the Necrons just kill you. The Night Lords and the Drukhari torture you and make you feel unimaginable terror and agony for days on end before you are allowed to die. With Daemons, who knows what might happen to you, you might just die, or you could end up being possessed or horribly mutated. Necrons, on the other hand, are funny as hell. They shattered their gods and put their pieces in pokeballs and one of them spends eternity just stealing everything and putting it in a museum.
you really are the best source of 40k lore videos on the web most people doing videos like this make mistakes like the necrons losing the war and retreating from the eldar and orks didnt think there was anyone still around that remembered it was the enslaver plague that won the war in heaven, not the necrons or the old ones tho always assumed the necrons going to sleep wasnt a retreat from the eldar they just killed the old ones, the logistical supplier of the krorks really isnt a threat anymore what are they going to do, bonesing themself power nah, it makes far more sense that the necrons saw the ruins the galaxy was left in after the war and judged it unworthy of their rule retreating into their tombs not from an enemy, but to wait out the galaxy fixing itself, because doing it manually was boring and effort the eldar and orks so devastated by the loss of their masters and the enslavers still searching for anything psychic left to eat it was safe to assume they would just die out like the pathetic pests they where
I’m going through your older videos and it’s funny how you were like “ok so this is war hammer 40k.” Now it’s “NECRONS! WAAAAAGH!” And puns. Very nice progression 👍
I have waited so long and I am so fucking HYPED! Thank you Krak Edit: fucking loved it! For sure one of the beste Necron videos out there, being informative while still remaining funny I also want to address how much your drawing skill has improved. really glad to see that. Your attention to details is awesome.
The Necrons started to borrow bits and bobs from the old WFB Tomb Kings. Tomb Kings also have funky dynastic intrigue, where every single royal with a claim to the throne woke up and had to settle which one actually had it. They have larger than life mummy royals doing what the heck they want with their little piece of the greater realm. Necron ships could also turn on a dime in Battlefleet Gothic. Their inertialess drive was nonsense. Also, aforementioned giant guns.
I'm only just discovering this channel, this is the 1st video I've watched & it's persuaded me to subscribe[and also now binge a few more-since it's 5am & doesn't seem like I'm getting any sleep anyways].. Recently I've been less than impressed with the available 40K channels & I'm glad there's still people who are passionate about making content & bringing quality videos & content.. (so, I'm off to binge my next videos(episodes?), seems like RUclips has the Tau Empire & Orks! already lined up, who am I to argue with The Algorithm?? Tau Empire it is...).
Love the channel, first vid was the Salamanders vid and been following since, love the lil drawings with the lore Good work Guardsman, you do the Imperium proud!
I'd love to see a full Tyranid invasion stopped by the Necrons who are then substantially weakened. Would allow them to really be full power in the law for a moment and actually do something crazy before getting taken back to a normal 'as screwed as everyone else' level.
As someone who knows nothing about warhammer thanks for the TLDR. I've played space marine 2 on the pc and that's it so it's great to get these summaries of the universe
I love canes chicken and their sauce it is delicious I get it every once in a while as a treat. Also great video glad to learn about the Necrons as I am just getting into the 40k Warhammer universe.
Necron Silent Kings says "Give food houses and money to the people" ... One advisor : "Did I hear correctly other advisor?" Other advisor : "Yes he said give all the money to my advisors" 😅😅😅
Necron and Eldar at this point are server owners try to have fun and occasionally show off their gears and tricks to the younger but fail miserably understanding not just these new kids but also themselves
My absolute FAVORITE xenos faction in 40K. Like you said, ancient egyptian undead terminators with crazy advanced tech is just so damn cool. Also every time the Mechanicus act stupid and mess with them, I feel they are absolutely justified in killing everyone lol. I'd be cranky too if I was woken up early from my 65 million year nap.

the necrons are just an old man with a vacuum sucking up wasps at a wasp nest. it’s scary because he barely gives a fuck and is also tired
@@coolio6855 yeah its scary but when you are facing against a old robot that thinks he's still "alive" and mistake you as a necron but differend color and invited you to breakfast. In short a robot with dementia😂
@@coolio6855 I wouldn't want to face that either. I wouldn't want to face anything that exists in 40k. But at least the Necrons just kill you. The Night Lords and the Drukhari torture you and make you feel unimaginable terror and agony for days on end before you are allowed to die. With Daemons, who knows what might happen to you, you might just die, or you could end up being possessed or horribly mutated.
Necrons, on the other hand, are funny as hell. They shattered their gods and put their pieces in pokeballs and one of them spends eternity just stealing everything and putting it in a museum.
you really are the best source of 40k lore videos on the web
most people doing videos like this make mistakes like the necrons losing the war and retreating from the eldar and orks
didnt think there was anyone still around that remembered it was the enslaver plague that won the war in heaven, not the necrons or the old ones
tho always assumed the necrons going to sleep wasnt a retreat from the eldar
they just killed the old ones, the logistical supplier of the krorks really isnt a threat anymore
what are they going to do, bonesing themself power
nah, it makes far more sense that the necrons saw the ruins the galaxy was left in after the war and judged it unworthy of their rule
retreating into their tombs not from an enemy, but to wait out the galaxy fixing itself, because doing it manually was boring and effort
the eldar and orks so devastated by the loss of their masters and the enslavers still searching for anything psychic left to eat
it was safe to assume they would just die out like the pathetic pests they where
I've been watching you since your first upload, your writing quality has considerably improved!
13:55 "The worst, if not THE WORST Necron video ever!"
I’m going through your older videos and it’s funny how you were like “ok so this is war hammer 40k.”
Now it’s “NECRONS! WAAAAAGH!” And puns. Very nice progression 👍
This is one of the best, if not THE best channel on RUclips, wait, no, scratch that, this is FLAT OUT the best channel on RUclips
I have waited so long and I am so fucking HYPED! Thank you Krak
Edit: fucking loved it! For sure one of the beste Necron videos out there, being informative while still remaining funny
I also want to address how much your drawing skill has improved. really glad to see that. Your attention to details is awesome.
When a KrakDuk vid comes out it's a good day
The Necrons started to borrow bits and bobs from the old WFB Tomb Kings. Tomb Kings also have funky dynastic intrigue, where every single royal with a claim to the throne woke up and had to settle which one actually had it. They have larger than life mummy royals doing what the heck they want with their little piece of the greater realm.
Necron ships could also turn on a dime in Battlefleet Gothic. Their inertialess drive was nonsense. Also, aforementioned giant guns.
I've been waiting for this video. Just started 40k a few months ago and chose to go with Necron's. I don't regret it one bit.
Your definitely my favorite war-hammer 40k RUclipsr. I check ya channel so often for new videos
18 minutes of glorious karkduk content and shameless bad puns, love your content, keep it up!
I'm only just discovering this channel, this is the 1st video I've watched & it's persuaded me to subscribe[and also now binge a few more-since it's 5am & doesn't seem like I'm getting any sleep anyways]..
Recently I've been less than impressed with the available 40K channels & I'm glad there's still people who are passionate about making content & bringing quality videos & content..
(so, I'm off to binge my next videos(episodes?), seems like RUclips has the Tau Empire & Orks! already lined up, who am I to argue with The Algorithm?? Tau Empire it is...).
Honestly one of your best videos so far!
Another banger. Is KrakDruk one of the best, if not THE best, RUclipsr on the platform right now?
BABE WAKE UP! KrakDuk posted
I can’t believe I was 3 weeks late to a krakduck video to be jump scared by the best fried chicken at the end of it
The necron is my favorite faction of warhammer. Their design and lore is fantastic, i love the robot Egyptian skeletons.
Love the channel, first vid was the Salamanders vid and been following since, love the lil drawings with the lore
Good work Guardsman, you do the Imperium proud!
Amazing video, i think this is the best video about my necron bois ive ever seen (except some nice trazyn vault lists ofc)
this channel is where i get my 40k lore from
Finally got to see krakduk draw a night lord if only to be seen for a couple of seconds,hopefully we'll get a video on them someday
8:52 - Being in the middle of “The Infinite and The Divine” - yeah that pretty much sums up Trazyn and Orikon quite nicely. 😂
Just started reading the infinite and the divine. So happy you dropped a video about necrons they’re my favorite faction 💚
YES!!! I've been waiting for this one thanks KrakDuk!!!
Looking forward to more Necron videos. One of my favorite factions.
I'd love to see a full Tyranid invasion stopped by the Necrons who are then substantially weakened. Would allow them to really be full power in the law for a moment and actually do something crazy before getting taken back to a normal 'as screwed as everyone else' level.
As someone who knows nothing about warhammer thanks for the TLDR. I've played space marine 2 on the pc and that's it so it's great to get these summaries of the universe
I love canes chicken and their sauce it is delicious I get it every once in a while as a treat. Also great video glad to learn about the Necrons as I am just getting into the 40k Warhammer universe.
I love that if you boil it down the necrons are just old ogres waking up with a bunch of weirdos fighting on their lawn.
The Qu vs The Necrons, what civilization wins
The most advanced civilization in the galaxy couldnt figure out how to make sunscreen lol
@6:40 pokeball spotted
Necron Silent Kings says "Give food houses and money to the people" ...
One advisor : "Did I hear correctly other advisor?"
Other advisor : "Yes he said give all the money to my advisors"
😅😅😅
This is my canon Deceiver voice now. Thank you
I love your videos, man. Keep it up!
I shoot green too, but you don’t see me braggin…
blessed day where its canon that krakduk loves the caniac combo
You know the video is going to be good when they start right at the tittle
lET'S GO!!! Krakduk has dropped a new video and it's my favorite faction!
By the Throne! The Sam O'Nella of 40k once again graces us with another offering of his musings!
Necron and Eldar at this point are server owners try to have fun and occasionally show off their gears and tricks to the younger but fail miserably understanding not just these new kids but also themselves
If you keep going at this rate duck you will turn in to a... MARKETABLE PLUSH AHHHHHHHH
NECRONSSS WOOOOOOO (I PAINT MINE WITH BLUE ENEGRY)
Phase blades are my fav Necron weapons. They literally shift into a different dimension to paas through armour and then reappear inside of you.
Tesla reference is the best one for any warhammer 40k lore in the year of 2024. You win the punhammer 2024
You know it’s a good day when he uploads
I like how for Halloween you're doing the skeleton robots.
5:22 that scream genuinely got me 😂😂😂 reminds me of that emoji face got turned into dust meme
Krakduk: Not green = Not Cool, Green = Strongest Faction Evah!
15:42 is peak 🤣
Love your unique style videos, keep going!
I thought I was fine watching this on lunch when I forgot my food at home but then he mentioned canes
My absolute FAVORITE xenos faction in 40K. Like you said, ancient egyptian undead terminators with crazy advanced tech is just so damn cool.
Also every time the Mechanicus act stupid and mess with them, I feel they are absolutely justified in killing everyone lol. I'd be cranky too if I was woken up early from my 65 million year nap.
Your vids always bring a smile.
11:46 HE SAID THE THING
WOOOOOOOOOO!!!
0:22 can't wait for the Dark Eldar video
Adding "THE WAR IN HEAVEN", and "OF DEATH" into the DevinDuk's catchphrases.
