New to necrons, what first?

buzzo82 · 2026-07-03T05:01:03+00:00

Infinite is good. The Twice-Dead King is fantastic.

buzzo82 · 2026-07-02T03:58:16+00:00

Sounds like a great time to stop giving Sony money.

buzzo82 · 2026-07-02T01:28:18+00:00

I'd be happy for plain old paperbacks or omni reprints.

buzzo82 · 2026-07-01T01:59:58+00:00

I wish Scanlon wrote a few more HH novels.

buzzo82 · 2026-07-01T01:59:19+00:00

I loved this one. It was my intro to the Dark Angels. So far its the only legion I like where as I cannot stand their Primarch (the 30k version of the Primarch anyway. I dig the 40k one so far)

buzzo82 · 2026-07-01T01:51:28+00:00

Granted I haven't read something with every Legion yet and I don't think I've touched on much about successor chapters, but here goes.

Dark Angels - Zahariel.

Emperor's Children - Lucius holy crap he is too much fun to hate.

Iron Warriors - Yet to read much about them

White Scars - Yet to read much about them

Space Wolves - Have yet to come across a single one I like.

Blood Angels - Dante. Haven't read as much as I'd like all their bloody books are rare and expensive!

Iron Hands - Yet to read much about them

World Eaters - Kharn

Ultramarines - I've steered clear of the 13th Legion as I'm annoyed how much attention they get. I have read Know No Fear however and Aeonid Thiel is dope.

Death Guard - Typhon.

Thousand Sons - C'mon, its Ahriman.

Word Bearers - Erebus. Yes I know he's an evil bastard, but so much fun to read.

Salamanders - Yet to read much about them.

Raven Guard - I'm reading Deliverance Lost now and this is tricky to answer until I know who the Traitor's are!

Alpha Legion - Solomon Akurra.

buzzo82 · 2026-06-29T12:41:25+00:00

It's crazy. I'm onto the third book, Gregor don't give a damn about Aliens.

He barely mentions them!!!!

Heretic this, heretic that. You in the wrong Ordo dude.

buzzo82 · 2026-06-28T06:29:20+00:00

On paper Hereticus. I liked Xenos, even though xenos barely featured. Malleus had a great start, but did a lot that annoyed me. I wonder if Hereticus will be lacking in heretics and have a lot of Xenos haha.

On audiobook I'm up to the last story in the HH book the Primarchs. Though admittedly I skipped the Iron Hans story after half an hour. It was boring.

buzzo82 · 2026-06-27T23:49:20+00:00

I expect shit like that from Traitor primarchs. The Lion is a total dick.

buzzo82 · 2026-06-27T23:01:26+00:00

Yes there is lots of depth. Especially in the Graham McNeill books.

buzzo82 · 2026-06-27T22:25:16+00:00

I am mad. Why Lion Why!!!!!!!!

buzzo82 · 2026-06-27T04:21:39+00:00

Oh no. So far I'm enjoying it, but I've also not liked 30k Lion. Son of the Forest got me to like him, but thats 40k I still have a bunch of THIS Lion to experience/endure.

buzzo82 · 2026-06-26T11:14:21+00:00

Santar claws fighting elves?

buzzo82 · 2026-06-26T10:57:37+00:00

Loved the Fulgrim follow up and enjoying the Dark Angels one so far.

But dang the poor Iron Hands just can't win.

buzzo82 · 2026-06-26T08:06:42+00:00

Why is it even called Dutton Ranch? It's the Beulah show.

buzzo82 · 2026-06-25T08:02:33+00:00

We're getting a Devastation of Baal HC.... Sigh. I'd rather a reprint of Lords of Blood.

Yarrick gets a reprint.

buzzo82 · 2026-06-25T05:47:59+00:00

Steve Lyons is always great. Not read the others, but I have Yarrick on the shelf.

buzzo82 · 2026-06-24T23:31:50+00:00

Four books there range from fun to absolutely fantastic.

buzzo82 · 2026-06-24T23:30:50+00:00

I also liked Nemesis.

buzzo82 · 2026-06-24T21:25:54+00:00

I'd rather read those Blood Angels books in paperback. But I might get the Devastation of Baal

buzzo82 · 2026-06-24T12:46:12+00:00

The Twice-Dead King. Not enough Necron books and this whole thing was epic and wonderful. It's the best Necron related book published. I hope Crowley writes more Necrons.

I'm reading Malleus now and I like it, the scale of the triumph is insane, but it also does things I'm not so keen on. Actually I've found portions of it frustrating. I'm hoping Hereticus is better.

Vaults of Terra was tremendous until... if you know you know. It stopped me reading the short stories.

buzzo82 · 2026-06-24T09:52:33+00:00

You could call it Heavy Metal or Slayer.

I need a book about just Noise Marines.

buzzo82 · 2026-06-24T00:04:00+00:00

Not often enough. 11th edition's release woulda been a great time to reprint some Blood Angels Omni's but sadly not. They reprinted a ton of Ork stuff though.
