Necrons
"Their Number Is Legion, Their Name Is Death"
Welcome to Warhammer 40k Necrons!
Necrons are one of the races in the tapletop game of Warhammer 40k. They are souless creatures made of living metal and are as ancient as time itself. Because of their ancient knowledge, Necrons have some of the most advanced technology in the universe. They use Gauss weaponry, which strips enimies particle away from the layer by layer. Not only are these metal monsters powerful, but they also have the amazing ability to put themselves back together after being blown to pieces and fight once again! Here are a few pictures of the necrons.
Brief Necron History
The Necrons' story is one of an ancient betrayal. Aeons ago, the Necrontyr race clung to their short lives in fear of oblivion at the hands of their massive and ravaging star. They pushed the limits of science in an effort to lengthen their lives, but to no avail. Then, the star gods known as the C'tan were discovered, offering immortality at a terrible price.
The Necrontyr agreed, and their souls were encased in living metal bodies. What they did not know was that the process dulled their minds and senses so they became slaves of the C'tan. The C'tan needed warrior-slaves to harvest the lifeforms of the galaxy so the star gods can feast on souls, and the C'tan's new Necrons served this purpose well.
After life across the galaxy ran thin millions of years ago, the Necrons went into stasis, waiting for life to grow back. Now, in the 41st millennium, they have found a galaxy teeming with life again.
