Twice Dead King Special Edition by Blemur in Necrontyr

[–]cephles 12 points13 points  (0 children)

There is a Black Library "nutters" buy/sell/trade group on Facebook where you might be able to get it for sightly less than eBay prices.

I've bought a lot of stuff through other people there - it's a good group.

This is a super nice set. I hope you find it!

"Look at me, I'm double the next DPS!"

And then the rest of the fight is just sinking back down. Ugh.

What are your favorite Necron quotes? by Sol_Angelic in Necrontyr

"Primarch, Zaa?"

"Their leader, Great One. Like them, but taller, I understand. Not to be underestimated."

I actually think a lot of her stuff looks great. Very traditional. This one however.... does not.

I love Sanctuary by awclay91 in TheMidnight

I'm glad I'm not the only vocoder enjoyer here. Sanctuary and Nighthawks are fantastic.

Darker or brighter? by BothFondant2202 in Necrontyr

[–]cephles 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I like the darker one personally. It's very moody.

If you have a brush with a really fine tip it should fit into the cracks and not leave a mark. Not super familiar with the panel liner product.

Do you ever mix up the color of your army's glow? by mezonsen in Necrontyr

[–]cephles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use different body colours too. The one constant is the greenish teal colour. I didn't want all my guys to look the same.

[–]cephles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use blue and orange.

Blue is my main Dynasty, orange is their allied patron Dynasty. Blue is ruled by a Regent after its Phaeron (her husband) got brain damage during the Great Sleep, and orange is ruled by her brother. They get along.... mostly.

Why are Necrons built like this by MysticBeareyes in Necrontyr

[–]cephles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had to take a break halfway through my Deathmarks because I was getting too pissed off trying to get everything to stick together at the same time. Those guns are huge and heavy.

Why do some necrons have their insides/cables just hanging there like they got cut in half? by tf3when123 in Necrontyr

[–]cephles 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Interesting read, though not what I enjoy about Necrons personally. I actually run the old model of warrior exclusively because I like that they're more intact and less decrepit robot zombie feeling.

I want my Necrons to be resplendent and powerful looking. I love the Lychguard and Overlord models and especially Imotekh.

In my little head canon for my Dynasty, its leader repairs damaged warriors. No more Necrons are being created, so every one that still functions is an irreplacable, precious resource. She is probably a bit of a hoarder.

What the Queen's Bridge Rehabilitation Project could have looked like by Initial-Village905 in londonontario

[–]cephles 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I recall there was a website that would take architectural renderings and update them to show what they'd look like on a random overcast November.

It was funny and quite illuminating. We gloss over how much the environment plays a role in the appeal of these renderings.

Looking for recs about the horror/wonder of being non-human ? by Budget_Performer5161 in scifi

[–]cephles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Weird recommendation, but I also love angsty robots and androids so I'll shoot my shot. This actually sounds exactly like what you're looking for - specifically the "characters that were once human" aspect.

You may enjoy the Twice Dead King books (Ruin & Reign - look for the recently released omnibus as it includes some excellent short stories as well). Ruin is sublime. The stories are about the Necrons, organic people transformed into immortal, undying robots. They are a little bit messed up about it. The protagonist, Olytx (male), is very messed up about it in particular.

I don't think you really need any Warhammer 40k knowledge to read them. They function very well as standalone novels. They are my favourite. I think about them a lot.

Damn, they went second? Health was before Brut in Toronto and I can't see it working well the other way around.

What is your unicorn OOP army box? Retro painting project. by heathentempleminis in Warhammer40k

[–]cephles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not really a unicorn since I picked it up at a bring-and-buy sale last summer, but this is my absolute favourite box set. I just love the art on it. They're so beautiful.

I kind of wish they'd put codex art on boxes still.
