1/27
Sabbath Necron Codex 0.5Included is the update to the Necron codex with rules that are currently being decided
upon by the Sabbath group, final version should be 1.0
General Rules:
Phase Out- Phase out has been changed to as follows: When the number of
points associated with a single Necron Army is reduced to 25% of the points
spent on models with the Necron special rule, the army is removed from
play. This occurs at the beginning of the Necron players turn immediately
following their Will Be Back rolls. In a game of Annihilation this rule is
waived.
For example: if an army consisting of 30 Necron Warriors (with Disruption
Fields), The Harvester, a Monolith, and a 3 man squad of Tomb Spyders
(with Bonded Exoskeleton), (1250 points exactly), would have 790 points
delegated to Necrons and as such would phase out if reduced to less then
198 pts of Necrons. ((I this example this would mean as long as the
Harvester survives, the army does not phase out))
Well Be Back- Any Necron that is reduced to 0 wounds or would otherwise
be removed as a casualty remains on the tabletop and is laid on its side to
show that its damaged. Damaged Necrons ignore the normal coherency
rules and cannot be attack in anyway they are seen as just more battle field
debris.
At the start of a Necron players turn, his/her damaged Necrons may self-
repair. Roll a D6 for every Necron capable of self-repair. On a roll of 1-3,
remove the model as normal. On a roll of 4-6 the Necron is repaired and
stands back up with 1 Wound remaining.
A Necron cannot self repair if it was destroyed by a close combat weapon
that allows no Armor saves or any weapon whose Strength is twice the
Toughness of the Necron concerned. This can be over-ridden by the
Resurrection Orb or Enhanced Power Core (See Necron Armory).
Additionally, the self-repair ability only works if the wounded Necron is
within 6 of another model of the same name, although not necessarily of
the same unit.
8/8/2019 Sabbath Necron Codex 0 5 _2
2/27
Models with the USR: Eternal Warrior may make a WBB roll, regardless of
the method in which they are killed (unless specified otherwise).
The Repaired Necron will immediately be placed with its original unit. If the
entire unit is wiped out, those who pass their WBB rolls will create the
New Unit where they last fell. Once the repaired Necron joins or forms its
unit it will continue to move and fight as normal. If its unit is involved in
close combat at the time it self-repairs, the Necron will join the close combat
and may not initiate new multi-assaults nor does it count as charging.
Necron Lords- Necron lords do not have to have another model within 6 in
order to self repair. If they self-repair, they will stand up with 1 Wound, not
their full 3. If the Lords last wound is lost to a close combat weapon that
allows no armor save or any weapon whose Strength is twice the Toughness
of the Necron/Destroyer Lord then it cannot self-repair unless it has aResurrection Orb or Enhanced Power Core, or if another Necron Lord within
6 inches has a Resurrection Orb. If several attacks hit simultaneously assume
that attacks that do not allow self-repair strike before ahead of those that do.
Tomb Spyders- If a Necron cannot self-repair because no model of the same
type is within 6, it may still self-repair if there is a Tomb Spyder within
12.

Vehicle Upgrades:
Power Matrix:
The Power Matrix functions as follows:It may not be destroyed with a Weapon destroyed result and may still
function as normal if shaken or stunned.
A Vehicle may use its Matrix in one of the following ways during the
controlling players turn.
1. In the shooting phase it may discharge its energy in the form of aParticle Whip (Once per game for Obelisk)
2. In the Movement phase it may use its portal to allow entire NecronUnits (Units with the Necron special rule) to phase out (even if inclose combat) and re-enter play by re-immerging from the portal as if
disembarking from the access point. They must be within 18 inches
of the Monolith or 9 inches of the Obelisk (depending on which is
used) and any models who failed their "We'll be back" rolls at the start
of the turn may reroll once they emerge from the portal. If you intend
to use the portal this way during a turn then leave the models that
failed to self-repair on their sides until the end of the Movement
phase.
Living Metal: Negates the additional effects of Melta, Lance, Chain Fists,
Thunder-hammers, Rending, Monstrous Creatures and any other abilities
which ADD to the roll for PENETRATION (Not Strength, for instance,
Talos Claws still gain their benefits to a Vehicle with Living Metal as their
abilities apply to the STRENGTH of the attack).
You may have your opponent reroll the highest D6 when firing Ordinance.
(They still take the higher of the two results)
Vehicles with Living Metal may ignore a Vehicle Destroyed result on a D6
roll of 6. (you may NEVER reroll a failed result)
Vehicles with Living Metal never count as scoring, nor do any embarked
units (if they are still embarked at the end of the game.)

* The Particle Whip has an AP value of 1 directly under the hole and always hits vehicles at full strength
even if partially hit. You do not subtract BS from the scatter roll and the blast will ALWAYS scatter, use
the largest arrow on the TARGET facing of the scatter die to determine the direction in which the blast
scatters.
**The gauss flux arc is fired in the beginning movement phase. Each Weapon Destroyed reduces the
total number of shots fired by -1 per result. When this number has reached -6, the Gauss Flux Arc is
considered destroyed.
Gauss weapons-
Against any model with a Toughness characteristic, any roll to wound of 6automatically causes a wound regardless of Toughness. Saving throws apply
as normal.
Against any model with AV, any roll of 6 on the Armor Penetration roll
counts as AT LEAST a glance. If the hit would normally penetrate the
vehicle armor, apply the penetrating hit instead of the glance.
Gauss Weapons receive +1 on the Vehicle Damage Table.
Staff of Light-The staff of light is treated as a power-weapon.
Close Combat Weapons
Warscythe- Warscythes are made from the same living metal as the hulls of
Necron ships and the Ctan necrodermis. There are not saving throws of any
8/8/2019 Sabbath Necron Codex 0 5 _2
5/27
sort (including invulnerable saves) allowed against Warscythes and when
attacking vehicles 2d6+ Strength is rolled for armor penetration.
Wargear

Cores, which are available to several unit types).

Nightmare Shroud 30
Phase Shifter 30
Phylactery 25
Resurrection Orb 40
Solar Pulse 35
Veil of Darkness 60
Bonded Exoskeleton Varied

Chronometron- A Lord with a Chronometron, and any unit it has joined,
rolls and extra die (and discards the lowest) when determining its Fall Back,
Run, Slow and Purposeful and Consolidation rolls.
Disruption Field- Melee attacks made by a model with Disruption Fields
gains the Universal Special Rule: Rending
Gaze of Flame- Models belonging to units which charge into close combat
with a Lord with Gaze of flame gain no bonus attacks for charging. Otherbonuses for charging (Such as Furious Charge) are still applied. Enemy
models in close combat with a Lord with Gaze of Flame suffer a -1
Leadership penalty, in addition to any other modifiers.
Lightning Field- For every wound inflicted on a Lord with a lightning field
(and any unit he has joined) a single Strength 3 hit (with no AP) will be
8/8/2019 Sabbath Necron Codex 0 5 _2
6/27
struck back to the unit who caused the wound (Independent Characters are
treated SEPERATELY for this rule). These extra to-wound rolls are resolved
at Initiative 0 (Meaning, they will always occur after all other combat has
resolved).
Nightmare Shroud (One per army)- A Lord with a Nightmare Shroud
(And any unit it is joined to) gain the Infiltrate special rule (However, they
DO NOT gain the ability to outflank). In addition, the Nightmare Shroud
may be activated in the Shooting phase instead of firing a weapon. Every
enemy unit with a model within 12 of the Necron lord must take a Moral
Check. Units that fail must Fall Back. Units that would never fall back are
immune to the Nightmare Shroud.
Phase Shifter- A Lord with a Phase Shifter gains a 4+ invulnerable Saving
throw and the Hit and Run special rule. He may also move an additional 6inches in the assault phase as if he were a Jet-Pack troop. The Hit and Run
and 6 Inch movement are not conferred to any unit that he joins.
Phylactery- When a Lord with Phylactery is reduced to 0 Wounds and
attempts its Self-repair roll at the start of the controlling players turn, instead
of using the normal rules, use the following table to see what happens.
D6 Result
1-3 The Model is removed as a casualty as normal.
4 The Lord stands up with 1 Wound5 The Lord stands up with 2 Wounds
6 The Lord stands up with 3 Wounds
Resurrection Orb- A Lord with a Resurrection Orb allows himself and all
Necrons within 6 inches of him to attempt their Well Be Back rolls
regardless of the method used to kill them.
Solar Pulse(One per army, One use only)-
The Solar Pulse may be used at the beginning of its controlling players turn.
Place a marker anywhere on the battlefield. Until the controlling players
next turn, any Non-Necron models within 12 of the marker may not shoot
nor be shot at. They may move, run, assault and do other actions as normal
from inside of the Pulse (besides Psychic Shooting Attacks). Only the Lords
controlling players units may shoot at units inside of the Solar Pulse.
8/8/2019 Sabbath Necron Codex 0 5 _2
7/27
Units that would normally ignore the rules for night fighting (Ignore, not
double the distance) may shoot from inside the pulse but cannot shoot INTO
a pulse.
In addition, if the night-fighting rules are in play during the turn the Lord
uses this ability, the controlling players forces ignore night-fighting rules
for the turn.
Veil of Darkness (One per 1500 points)- A Lord can use a Veil of
Darkness at the start of its Movement phase instead of moving normally.
The Lord, any unit that has joined it, and up to one unit of Necrons (I.E not
Tomb Spyders, Monoliths, Obelisks, or Scarab Swarms) within 6s of it are
removed from the tabletop and both are then immediately placed together
anywhere on the tabletop (The other unit MUST be within 6 inches of the
Lord) using the Deep Strike rules. The Veil may be used even if enemymodels are in base contact with the Lord or any of the Necrons that move
with him (the enemy models are left behind and may make a consolidation
move). *Note: The Fleshripper (while he may be in essence, an upgraded
Flayed one) can NEVER be relocated with a Veil of darkness, if his unit is
selected, the unit of Flayed ones is relocated as normal while The
Fleshripper remains behind.
Bonded Exoskeleton- A model with Bonded Exoskeleton has an Armor
Save of 2+ instead of its normal Armor Save.
Enhanced Power Core- A model with Enhanced Power Cores adds +1 to
its invulnerable save, if it would normally have no invulnerable save, it has a
6+ instead.

HQThe Harvester:
Pts WS BS S T W I A LD Sv
The Harvester 250 7 4 6(10 6 3 6 4 10 2+(5+)
Unit Type: Infantry
Number: 1 Harvester. The Harvester Counts as a Necron Lord in terms of
WBB eligibility.
Wargear:
Phylactery
Lightning Field
Res Orb
Enhanced Reactor CoreBonded Exoskeleton
Deathscythes
Special Rules:
Scythe Mastery: The Harvester receives an additional D6 attacks while
charging (instead of the usual +1attack). Reroll any roll of 1 for this factor
(You may reroll this die as many times as possible if multiple 1s occur, the
Harvester will never have less then +2 attacks on the charge). The Harvesterwill ALWAYS gain this bonus D6 for charging (or Counter attack)
regardless of any other units Wargear or special rules.
Eternal Warrior: As The Harvester has the Universal Special Rule: Eternal
Warrior.
Counter Attack: The Harvester has the Counter Attack Universal Special
Rule. If he successfully gains a Counter-Attack, he will use his Scythe
Mastery rules(+1d6) instead of the usual +1 attack granted by counter attack.
Independent Character: The Harvester follows the same rules for being an
Independent Character as other Necron Lords.
The Hunger: If a Necron Model fails its WBB roll (Or would not normally
get one) within 24 inches of the Harvester, he may attempt to "Harvest" the
parts of the fallen Necron. On a D6 roll of 4+, the fallen Necron is removed
8/8/2019 Sabbath Necron Codex 0 5 _2
9/27
and The Harvester may increase his wounds characteristic by +1 (up to a
maximum of +8). Models that are harvested CANNOT be revived via a
Resurrection Orb or Power Matrix. For every turn in which the Harvester
does not feed, he suffers a wound on a D6 roll of 1-3.
Gift of the Night Bringer: The Harvester has a special ability in which he
may place 1 Solar Pulse markers on the battle field at any one time. The
marker may remain in play for the entirety of the game. For every turn in
which Harvester has a Solar Pulse in play at the end of a turn, he takes a
wound (no saves of any kind allowed). He also will take a wound very time
he places a marker. If the Harvester is killed in this manner (either at the
beginning or end of the turn via GotNB) he is immediately removed from
play as a Casualty, no WBB roll is allowed.
The Deathscythes: The Deathscythes are a pair modified Warscythes thathave a built in Staves of light (Yes, this makes the Staff of Lights shot
Twin Linked). Additionally, if The Harvester rolls a 6 on his Scythe
Mastery Roll, all his attacks are resolved at Strength 10. The +1 attack from
having Two Special close combat weapons is already included in his profile.
The Fleshripper
Pts WS BS S T W I A LD Sv
The Flesh Ripper 175 6 4 5 4 3 4 3 10 3+(6+)
Unit Type: Infantry
Number: 1 Fleshripper. The Fleshripper counts as an HQ choice but is
treated as a Flayed One in name for eligibility for WBB. He does not gain
the Preferred Unit special rules he confers to other Flayed ones.
Wargear:
Rippers Claws
Enhanced Power Core
Special Rules:
Leader of the Flayed Ones: If Fleshripper is taken, Flayed Ones count as
your Preferred Unit and in addition to the usual bonuses gain the
Preferred Enemy universal special rule. He may also purchase a Unit of
8/8/2019 Sabbath Necron Codex 0 5 _2
10/27
Flayed Ones as a Retinue (using their standard costs and rules). His Retinue
does gain the benefits (and point costs) associated with the Preferred Unit
rules choice. (They cost +5 points a model and come with an additional
wound and EPCs)
Rise Up!: Flayed ones arriving via deep strike only roll 1 die for scatter(as
well as the scatter die). If the result of the one die is 4 or more, they do not
scatter.
Strike fear!: As long as Fleshripper remains on the board, Models within 12
inches of a unit of Flayed ones (including Fleshripper) suffer a negative
modifier to their leadership (for all purposes) equal to the number of Flayed
Ones in range - the number of models in the effected unit (min -1 modifier).
EX 10 strong Flayed Ones squad in range of 5 Terminators, the terminators
are effective leadership 5 as long as they remain within 12 inches from theFlayed Ones. This also grants all Flayed Ones the "Preferred Enemy" special
rule (including Fleshripper)
Ripper's Claws: The Rippers Claws are special power weapons that rend on
a 5+. Against vehicles they receive an additional D6 to Armor Penetration
(instead of D3) if they happen to "Rend".
Fearless: The Flesh ripper has the Universal Special Rule: Fearless.
Independent Character: As Long as he has no Retinue, The Fleshripper is
a Unique type of Independent Character that may only join units of Flayed
Ones and only if no other Independent Character has joined the same Unit. If
another independent character would join a Unit containing the Fleshripper,
the Fleshripper is no longer a part of that unit. If he has a retinue, he gains
these rules when his entire retinue has been removed as casualties.

The Harbinger:
Pts WS BS S T W I A LD Sv
The Harbinger 225 4 6 5 6 4 4 4 10 2+(5+)

Number: 1 Harbinger. He counts as a Necron Lord in terms of WBB
Eligibility.
Wargear:
Phylactery
Resurrection Orb
Bonded Exoskeleton
Enhanced Power-Core
Destroyer BodyDisruptor Fields
Gauss torrents
Power-Field Generator
Special Rules
Might of the Necrontyr: The Harbinger grants all Friendly units, within 24
inches of him, with the "Necron" special rule: Feel No Pain. In addition,
friendly units of Destroyers, Immortals, and heavy destroyers within 18inches of him may rerolled failed "to hit" rolls with their Gauss weaponry.

Eternal Warrior: The Harbinger has the Eternal Warrior Universal Special
Rule.

Pain Universal Special rule.
Fearless: The Harbinger has the Universal Special Rule: Fearless.

Independent Characters as a model with a Destroyer body.
Power Field Generator: Harbinger removes the Phase out special rule for
HIS forces in any game in which he is taken.
8/8/2019 Sabbath Necron Codex 0 5 _2
12/27
Gauss Torrents: The Gauss Torrents are an enhanced version of Heavy
Gauss Cannons, in addition they function as a set of master-crafted power-
weapons (the additional attack is included in his profile)
Gift of the Deceiver: If the Harbinger begins his turn within 12 inches and
in line of sight of an Enemy vehicle, he may take possession of the vehicle
until the beginning of his next turn. Leave the Harbingers model where it
was but otherwise, it is unaffected by any game-play while in possession.
The vehicle uses the Harbingers WS, BS and Initiative as long as it remains
possessed. Vehicles in close combat when The Harbinger leaves its shell
may make a consolidation move (as well as any other models involved) as
long as no other enemy model remain in its close combat. If a vehicle
possessed by The Harbinger is destroyed while he is in possession, roll a D6
and apply the following table.
Roll Effect
1 The Harbinger is removed from play
2-5 The Harbinger suffers a # of Perils of the Warp wounds equal to the
result
6 The Harbinger is returned as normal
Our Lord has Fallen!: If the Harbinger is to be defeated in combat (after
failing his WBB roll), or removed from play for any other reason, all units inthe Harbingers Necron army must take a leadership test at -(8-turn#) (EX:
On turn 5 they would take the test at -3 leadership). Vehicles and
Independent characters are not affected; Fearless units ARE affected by this
ability. Any model that fails its test is immediately removed from play, no
saves of any kind are taken and the entire unit is removed (minus any
independent characters of course). However, even though the Harbinger has
died (and a good number of Cron's are probably off the board at this time)
Harbinger's Power Field Generator rule still applies and as such, the army
cannot be defeated by Phase Out. When the Harbinger has been removed as
such, place an appropriate model when he was last standing, this is treated asan Additional objective and grants the Might of the Necrontyr special rule
to friendly Necron models as normal. In a game of Kill Points, The
Harbinger is worth D3+1 Kill points.

Repairing a Tomb Spider:
During the shooting phase, a Squad of scarab swarms may attempt to repair
a damaged Tomb Spider. Roll one die for each swarm base in the squad.
If a squad of Scarabs receives 2 or more rolls of 6 in a single repair action,
you may restore one wound to the tomb spider.
Tomb Spiders that are in Melee combat may not be repaired.
-Scarabs may not repair if involved in melee combat.
-Scarabs may not "Run" and "Repair" in the same turn.

-A squad of scarabs that uses a Repair action cannot assault (but can be
assaulted) in the turn they use their repair (even if not all scarabs take a
repair roll.
Oops!: For each a repair roll of 1, the swarm base suffers 1 wound. (Armor
taken as normally)
Swarm of swarms!: A scarab swarm of at least 4 bases may choose to use
this ability in the assault phase. Roll to hit as normal, of you have at least
two successful hits, do not roll to wound. Instead declare that you will be
using "Swarm of Swarms". One model (of your choosing) of the opposing
assault must make a strength test. If it succeeds, every base in the scarab
squad takes a wound (armor saves taken as normal) if they fail, they suffer a
wound causing "instant death" (invul save only, no armor). Models with
Eternal Warrior suffer D3 + (1 for every base after the required 4 scarabbases) wounds instead of the normal 1. EX: 5 man Scarab squad hitting
Abbadon. He somehow fails his str test (rolled a 6?) so he takes D3+1
wounds (taking only his invul save).

Type: Tank, Skimmer, Transport
Crew: None
Wargear: Gauss Flux Arc (see below), Living metal.
Transport:
Transport Capacity: Up to 20 infantry models may be embarked on a
Monolith. Unlike most transports, certain unit types other then infantry may
be embarked in a Monolith (specifically Lords with a Destroyer body,
Destroyers, and Heavy Destroyers.) these models take up 2 Transport
Capacity per model
Access/Firing Points: The monolith has 1 Access Point (The front portal)
and 1 firing port (the Circular Window-Portal in the back).
.
Special Rules:
8/8/2019 Sabbath Necron Codex 0 5 _2
25/27
Ponderous: Unlike normal vehicles the monolith may only safely move 6
inches, if it wishes to move further then this, at the beginning of the
movement phase (before fireing the Flux Projectors) roll a D6 and add the
result to the total number of inches you may move that turn. On a roll of 6
the monolith must make a dangerous terrain test regardless of where it
moves (even if it does not move) on a roll of 1 the monolith does not move
at all for the turn (but counts as moving at combat speed ONLY for the
purposes of embarked models)
Deep Strike: The Monolith may always be deployed using the Deep Strike
rules. It does not Mishap if it lands on Impassible Terrain or other Models,
instead its scatter is reduced to the minimum required to allow the Monolith
to land.
Monolith Wrecked: Units embarked on a Monolith that is "wrecked" suffer
a str 5 ap 3 hit apon disembarking, they must disembark in a circle around
the monolith(instead of at the access point), and are automatically pinned. If
they cannot disembark (due to enemy within 1") they are removed as per
normal rules.
Monolith Explodes: Units embarked on a Monolith that "explodes" are
automatically killed outright. Their corpses are placed in a circle around
where the Monolith was (or in the area the Monolith was in) and they are
allowed to take their "We'll be Back" roll at the beginning of their next turn.
Guiding Matrix: The Monolith allows other Necron Units(besides other
Monoliths!) who deep strike within 18inches of it to not scatter when
deepstrike.

Dedicated TransportObelisk
Points FA SA RA BS
Obelisk 50 12 12 12 3
Type: Immobile, Transport
Crew: None
Wargear: Twin-Linked Gauss Flayer,Living Metal.
Transport: The Obelisk can hold up to 10 models or 1 Tomb Spyder.
Models with Destroyer bodies count as two models in terms of Maximum
Capacity. Necron Lords/Destroyer Lords attached to squads which purchasean Obelisk do not take up ANY of the troop capacity.
Options: For an additional 25 pts an Obelisk may purchase a Power Matrix.
An Obelisk can replace the Built-In Gauss flayer with a Twin-Linked Gauss
Cannon for +25 points.
Special Rules:
Tomb World
Obelisk Assault: At the beginning of the game, 1/2 (rounding up) of the
total number of Obelisks you have in reserve must arrive via deep strike.
The remaining Obelisks are rolled for as per reserve rules.
The Obelisk:
-After an Obelisk arrives via Obelisk Assault or at the beginning of your first
turn, the troops inside the Obelisk must immediately disembark and the
Obelisk can no longer be used as a transport.
-If an Obelisk arrives via deep strike, if it were to land on Impassible Terrain
or other Models, it reduces the scatter by the minimum distance required to
safely land.
-The Obelisk is Immobile and can never be moved, abilities such as
"Grapple" do not affect the Obelisk as normal, instead, the Dreadnought may
8/8/2019 Sabbath Necron Codex 0 5 _2
27/27
be moved the 2d6 towards the Obelisk, following normal rules for
"Grapple". It also already counts as having an "Immobilized" result on the
Vehicle Damage Table.
-If an Obelisk is destroyed before its contents are able to disembark,
immediately remove all models that were embarked as casualties, no rolls of
any kind may prevent these models from being removed.
-Like the Monolith, the Obelisk can guide other troops (including other
Obelisks AND Monoliths) with a Guidance Matrix. However, due to the
weaker power core in the Obelisk, it can only guide units attempting to deep
strike within 9".
