Armies o" the #1 st MillenniumNecron Rules

$eploymentDue to the tremendously advanced nature of Necron intelligence gathering techniques, the Necron player

always deploys last, but must always move his models first in the Turn Sequence. This rule is alwayssubstituted for other deployment rules taken from the general rulebook, or any published Code .

$isruptor %one!f a vehicle or a dreadnought is within "# of a Necron at the start of its turn, then it must roll a $% on D" tomove at all that turn. &ven if successful at this roll, its movement is halved that turn. 'ny weaponattempting to shoot suffers a () To *it penalty for each Necron within "#. This applies to all weapons,including Tyranid weaponry. &nemies in *t* combat against Necrons may not use the Strength of closecombat weapons they carry when resolving hits+ use the Strength of the model itself.

Rep&ir Slain Necrons are not removed as casualties but are placed on their sides in a manner similar to that of aslain Tyranid with the egeneration -iomorph. The Necron takes no part in the game while in this

condition and cannot be further harmed. 't the start of each of its controller s turns, roll a D6 and consultthe epair Table below/

Roll Effect

1The Necrons body fails to repair itself and wastes away+ remove themodel as a casualty. Note that a roll of ) always has this result, nomatter what bonuses are applied to the epair oll.

2-5 The Necron remains on the ground.

6+ The Necron is repaired. !t rises to its feet and can immediately moveand fight as normal.

Necrons who are down at the end of a battle count towards the full number of 0ictory 1oints of slainmodels.

Isol&tion Necrons ordinarily must maintain squad coherency as is normal for a squad. *owever, 2active# Necrons donot need to maintain this coherency with Necrons that have been downed in combat and are attempting torepair themselves. Thus a Necron which repairs itself may find itself outside of normal coherency to therest of its squad. Necrons in such a condition are said to be isolated .

Necrons that recover must try to 3oin up with a Necron unit of the same type as themselves or with another individual model of the same kind. 4ntil it does so, the Necron is isolated. !solated Necrons cannot shoot,although fights as normal in all other respects.

Le&dership &nd $e"e&t Necrons do not take 5eadership tests6any test they would normally be required to take, they automatically pass. The 5d of )7 has been provided for convenience.

!f the entire Necron force is reduced to 89: or less of its models of Squads ;this number also includes all5ords in the 'rmy< at the start of any Necron turn, then the whole force will mysteriously vanish+ the

Necrons are assumed to have been driven away. Necrons that have fallen down but not yet removed can t be counted as part of the remaining force, so a Necron army can be defeated if enough models are knockeddown even if they are not permanently destroyed.

Should this take place, the opposing player is automatically declared the winner.

Necron Monolith$escription

The =onolith represents the pinnacle of Necron science. !t serves as a troop transport, heavy assaultvehicle, and >hospital to the Necron forces. 's such, it has several specific rules which apply to it, whichare summari?ed below.

$eployment!f desired, =onoliths may be held in eserve, and deployed first during the =ovement 1hase, instead. ThisDeployment is similar to that of Drop 1ods+ however, rather than drop from the sky, the =onolith actuallyemerges out of the ground, instead@

1lace a A# blast marker for each =onolith anywhere in the battle ?one in a clear area. Bnce the marker has been placed, roll an 'rtillery and Scatter die/

$eployment Roll $eployment ResultMisfire (Artillery Die) !gnore the Scatter Die result, and consult the =alfunction Table.Hit !gnore the Scatter Die result, and place the =onolith on the

marker as indicated.

Arrow/Number The =onolith has drifted off target. oll 8D", and move the -last=arker a number of inches equal to the sum of the 'rtillery Dieand the 8D" roll in the direction shown on the Scatter Die.

$' Roll M&l"unction T&(le1-2 The =onolith has trouble emerging from the ground, and the 1ortal is blocked.

!t can only be cleared on a D" roll of $% each turn or by the =onolith spendinga second turn in that location to rise completely to the surface.

-5 The 1ower =atri fails and the =onolith falls on a random side as it emerges.!f this is the side with the 1ortal, then the Teleporter may not be used. The=onolith may not right itself, and must finish the game from this position.

6 The =onolith phases in to the ground and e plodes, destroying everything in aA radius of the outside of the vehicle and leaving a massive crater. The vehicle

is destroyed, and there are no survivors on board@

!f the =onolith would emerge off the table, it can be brought back on the board and make a normal movefrom that point in the following turn. =onoliths ignore the terrain from which they emerge.

!f the =onolith is deployed beneath a vehicle or model, the controlling player may move the model suchthat it is one inch away from contact with the Necron 0ehicle once it is on the table.

Bnce the =onolith emerges, it must spend the rest of that turn in that position. *owever, it may accelerateto any speed in the following turn.

Mo)ement Necron =onoliths are considered >*eavy Skimmers. hile they ignore terrain penalties for movement,they do not float high enough above the ground to prevent attacks against them in *t* combat. They maynot make popEup attacks, nor cross terrain that is vertically higher than )8#.

Due to the nature of the 1ortal mechanism, models deploying from the =onolith may do so regardless of the speed at which it moves. *owever, they may only e it in front of the 1ortal, and may only make anadditional move to Charge an enemy unit who is within $# of that point on the turn in which they emerge+otherwise, they must remain stationary. This rule counts for '55 models who e it the =onolith, whether they are Necron arriors inside the vehicle or units who are Teleported to it.


5/20

*ersonnel C&rrier The =onolith may carry up to $F Necron arriors. These models may be divided into as many legal unitsas the Necron player wishes. They are transported by the =onolith in complete safety, and cannot beharmed until they are sent onto the battlefield or the =onolith is destroyed.

Should the =onolith be destroyed while carrying units, then they are considered to be casualties for 0ictory1oint purposes. *owever, models on board do not count towards the total number of models in the armywhen determining if the 'rmy will phase out due to casualties.

't the end of the game, any arriors not disembarked by the =onolith count towards the opposing player s0ictory 1oint total.

Note that there is no way back into a =onolith. Bnce a unit is deployed, it must remain on the table, andcannot reEembark. There is no way to >pile on to a =onolith@

$e"ensesThe first defense of the =onolith is the armor itself. The vehicle possesses a selfEadaptive hull+ for eachattack that penetrates the =onolith but does not destroy it, increase the 'rmor 0alue of that location of the=onolith by 8 points, to a ma imum of 89, for each shot which subsequently hits it.

'lthough it can be attacked in *and to *and, opponents who are not =onstrous Creatures, Dreadnaughts,or larger, may not add multiple attacker bonuses against it due to the fact that it is a Skimmer. Gurthermore,the Necron Disruptor Hone applies to the =onolith as well, and so all *t* attacks against it must use the=odels S score ;or am 0alue


6/20

Energy Projector !f no models have been teleported or Shields used, the 1ower =atri may discharge its energy as a 1article

hip in the Shooting phase ;see weaponry, belowcurrent of the beam.

The CTan$escriptionThe C Tan are the godlike beings from the arp who are responsible for the ultimate creation of the

Necrons. 5ike Ireater Daemons or the &ldar 'vatars, they are not mortal, and possess unique powers thatfar surpass those of creature who are born of the =aterium of the physical universe.

True N&ture'll C Tan are creatures of pure energy , who are not bound by the laws of the physical universe. This

provides them with the following abilities, which are common to all members of their >race /

C Tan always appear as monstrous creatures. They follow all of the standard rules for models of this si?e+however, because they will never deign to 3oin a unit, they are always considered a legal target in theShooting 1hase, even if there is another Necron unit within "# of the shooting model. 'll other rulesconcerning 5BS, cover modifiers, etc., apply.

's stated earlier, C Tan are not affected by the normal laws of the universe. They ignore terrain penalties by simply floating over the ground without touching it. They are !mmune to to ins, gasses, viruses, acids,and Glamers of all types ;save for the Irey Jnight !ncineratoremerge from the top of it if forced to do so.-ecause of this ability, Iraviton Iuns, ebbers, and even Stasis Irenades have no effect on them.

'll C Tan cause Terror to any model other than a Ireater Daemon or an 'vatar. =odels who fail the check must recover twice from the effect/ the first ally roll ends the effect of Terror, and the second successful

ally roll ends the result of Gear. -oth of these recovery rolls must be made with a E8 to the roll.

*hysic&l N&ture!n order to interact with the physical universe, the C Tan surround themselves in a sheathe referred to as a

Necrodermis. This >skin has the following properties/

The Necrodermis provides the C Tan with an !nvulnerable Save of A%.

eapons that !nstantly Jill only inflict one wound on a C Tan ;although they will not get a save, if one isnot normally permitted against the attack


7/20

C Tan 1hase Swords have no effect, and are actually absorbed into the Necrodermis, and lost by theattacking model@ Gurthermore, !mperial 'ssassins technology is largely derived from that of the C Tan, andthey are !mmune to its effects. Bnly conventional weapons may be used by the 'ssassins, and the derive no

bonuses from their argear when opposing a C Tan other than that which modifies their physical statistics.

educing the C Tan model to 7 wounds actually only breeches the Necrodermis and releases the energy being inside. hen this happens, all models within $# suffer D)7 wounds on a $%, with no saves allowed.This power effects all models in range, even Necron models+ vehicles will suffer one Damage result to anylocation within the area on a roll of $%, with no 'rmor 1enetration roll required.

-nergy .&mpiresThe C Tan e ist by consuming the life energies of physical beings. To represent this, all C Tan have thefollowing rules which apply/

hen a C Tan kills a mortal model, then the victims life energies are consumed by it. No argear, 'bility,or -iomorph will prevent this from occurring+ the model is automatically slain.

!f this occurs in *and to *and combat, then the death of the model actually restores one wound to theC Tan.

ther A(ilitiesThe senses of a C Tan e tend though time, spirit, and space. 's such, when engaged in *t* combat, theC Tan always receives a >Charge bonus of %), even if they do not initiate the Charge. Gurthermore, nomortal model receives a Charge or 1osition -onus when engaging the C Tan in *and to *and.

5ikewise, C Tan always strike first against any model other than a Ireater Daemon, Daemon 1rince, or 'vatar ;these fights are resolved normally

!f it is not repairing another model or in *t* combat at the end of each turn, the Tomb Spyder maycreate one Scarab.

The Nightbringer is a C Tan, and all of the rules for that race apply to this model.

The Nightbringer may fire a 5ightning 'rc in the Shooing 1hase. hile this attack appears to emanatefrom The Nightbringers scythe, the attack is actually a function of his C Tan nature, and the loss of theweapon ;should it occur< is irrelevant to him.

!f engaged in *and to *and combat, The Nightbringer may choose to employ what is euphemisticallyreferred to as the >ga?e of death. ather than roll any attack dice, The Nightbringer weakens his

Necrodermis, instead. 1lace a 8# -last =arker over the center of the C Tan. &ach model fully under the template will suffer D$ wounds on a roll of $%, with no saves allowed ;check for each model
