    So the Old Ones had better tech for the Warp and they could get across the galaxy faster, but space battles have to happen in space, real space, by definition. So the Necrons didn't have access to the Warp or any way to know about it and therefore no way to utilize it. So they only had technology in real space, and when you only have one avenue of tech to research and improve you get really good at it. That's why they are so good in space battles and ground engagements because these battles take place in real space, not the Warp. Or at least that's what I understand from it.

    10:30 Correction: The Necrontyr didn't have any FTL technology during their first war against the Old Ones, hence why they had to travel for centuries in stasis just to go from one planet to another. The Necrontyr would only get the extremely fast FTL technology they're seen having in the War in Heaven and in 40k after they made their pact with the C'tan and became the Necrons (remember that the C'tan gave the Necrons loads of new, hyper-advanced technologies so they could better fight the Old Ones). This is why the Old Ones' mobility advantage was non-existent during the War in Heaven.

      iain rickwood that’s a really good question... Tyranids have no souls, so it has been stated that Chaos really don’t like fighting them because their gods, especially Korn, gets nothing out of it. That being said, biologically, I don’t see chaos having much effect either. The source of their power, as their name suggests, randomly mutates those physically effected by their influence.
      But again, Tyranid’s are based on rapid evolution and adaptations. Any mutations would either a) Help the tyranids or b) have no effect as they’ll just adapt out of it.
      Tyranids on the other hand, turn everything into raw biomass. So long as the ship is run by Chaos warriors and not daemons, Chaos is as fucked as everyone else.

    You made a couple mistakes in the video. You said that Necrons are not as agile as the Eldar, and that leading fire is advised. This is false, the Necrons are much faster and more agile than the Eldar, represented on table top as the Eldar getting 2 turns max and the Necrons getting 7 max, as well as the Necrons possessing the fastest TT Ships by far and the ability of their battleships to run down Eldar escorts with ID. Lorewise inertialess drives are literal, and they have no stop/turntimes, it’s instant. They use this to great effect in 6e, when during the Orpheus war they fly at the imperial fleet,, fly past it, stop immediately, and then shoot said fleet in the back by instantly turning around. Anyways, on ftl, besides having access to the webway, which is faster than warp travel, phase out (instant), and ID (most sources say as faster, ex cross galaxy in blink of eye), the reason they had trouble with the old ones is because they actually didn’t have ftl until the second part of the war in heaven, which is mentioned in the codex as the sole reason they couldn’t solo them without the C’tan. Then they got it, and started curbstomping. In the newer lore (4e to current) boarding is also a terrible idea, beyond the lack of sensory info even once they start repairing and the absolute maze that is a ships interior (with places requiring phasing and teleporting) its really easy to get lost, even for veteran word bearers who live in the warp, and narrow coverless places are not where you want to meet a Necron, see the near death of the entire Minotaurs chapter to moderately damage a single ship. Also, you forgot the sepulcher and energy drain and the three obscure ship types the my had pre beta (cartouche from book of nemesis, Kopesh from fantasy flight games reaper from BFG magazine) making 8 total ship types but those are minor
    On the WiH, you can tell the ships are designed for it. The lightning arks ignore holofields, so they are anti Eldar, Gauss Particle ships are similar, and the starpulse would be great against swarms (orks).

      Necron lore is by far the most broken. If you make a sci-fi race that can solo Necrons at 100%. You need to tone down your sci-fi race. Necrons are the fastest strongest and highest damage dealing with the only thing they "lack" in is numbers which has proven time and time again it doesn't matter to them. I love and hate them because they are technically "All Tech" VS Race's who use "magic". But I hate them because they are so obnoxiously OP.

      @@phreakazoith2237 They can do both. They have many ships stored away, but there are numerous mentions of them building new ones (ex: thaszar building the biggest fleet since the war in heaven (meaning its bigger than the imperial fleet during the heresy) and the fact scarabs can eat a hive city and produce a warfleet from it).

      Sandor Grau-Fay it makes sense. Necrons are narratively supposed to be the BIG bad of the 40k universe, being the overwhelming force that nearly wiped out the oldest and most powerful race of space wizards. Eldar still collectively shit themselves thinking about the War in Heaven, which in itself predates The Chaos Gods themselves, because the races hadn’t been created yet. Unfortunately GW are superiorly biased towards certain races *cough cough* Chaos *cough cough* and kinda handicapped the Necrons by complicating their awakening process. So even though they win almost every fucking fight they have, they’re very few and far between. Most of the Necrons are either still asleep and/or are in such disrepair they can’t wake up effectively. So instead of being the Entropy of the universe, they’re really just the boogie men of 40k. And that’s all they’ll probably ever be.

    QUESTION 2 : Hi, any idea what will happened if a stray bolt shell flying though the battlefield would hit one of those awesome looking energy handling tubes of Necron Gauss weapons?
    Possible explanation would be:
    a) The tube cracks/explodes and all hell and suffering is unleashed from that gauss weapon;
    b) Necron were no fools, during the designing of their gauss weaponary they shielded the tube heavily and explosion of that stray bolt didn't do any harm.
    c) The weapon is mildly damaged, but overall is still funtional, yet overtime somewhat it looses efficiency with the particle ripping?

    • @FluffyFailure0
      @FluffyFailure0 4 года назад

      I would say the combination of A and C.
      The Adeptus Mechanicus have tried to replicate Gauss weaponry only for the weapon to unmake itself and everything around it including the user.
      And as a result the Adeptus Mechanicus have concluded that Gauss weaponry is a paradox which they can't solve. :3

    The Necrontyr lost to the old ones.
    The Necrons did not, as the C'tan had upgraded their weapons, ships, and their flesh for the cost of their freedom and souls.
    The old ones could travel instantaneously between planets, but when the Necrontyr became the Necrons they could too.
    Time condensing might have been within the Arsenal of the Necrontyr, but not time travel until they became the Necrons, and it's still jealously being kept secret from the other Necrons by Orikan the Diviner.
    That is the heavily summarised explanation of why Necron ships currently outpace all others in the universe.
    P.S. The Necrons also have a real-time interactive map of the entire universe that could delete entire solar systems if you sneezed at it. :3

      They can, but generally don't. For example, Kelrantyr made a bunch of necrons based on historical figures who were long dead by the time of biotransference. Generally to increase numbers they just make war-constructs like tomb stalkers and serapteks.

      And of a Necrons body is so badly damaged that it has the phase out, and even then can't be repaired they create a new body and upload the necron to it, but it degrades the minds of the common soilder

      WH40K really suffers from wanting to have all those SF-super threats to spice things up, but having to balance them against each other in the games. The Eldar are "balanced" by having lost most of their super-science when their entire civilization died (Dark Eldar are just too nuts/degenerated), the T'au are super-young, Orks don't care and Humans have lost most of their ancient knowledge, too. And then there are the extragalactic Tyranids, the super-duper ancient Necron and literal space gods. If this wasn't lore for a game where every faction needs to have a chance of winning, Chaos, Necrons and Tyranids would just bulldoze over the entire galaxy and duke it out among themselves.
