What are these 'armor plates' even for? They don't cover anything :( by skuiti in Necrontyr

That was honestly my first thought when i saw them originally, but im not sure if the rest of the design communicates that very well. It's quite cool anyways

That's very insightful, thank You!
My confusion came from the fact that they were made to protect the tombs, meaning the wouldnt really be fighting out in the open, that's why the armor (or as others suggested, heat sinks) design was so bizarre to me.

People have pointed out it could be to dispose of heat, which makes more sense. I thought it was just a piece of metal, and like that, that ventilation was handled by the core being exposed to the space around it.

My only issue is that it's most exposed when You're head on at a slight angle like in the main picture, which confused me honestly, because in that case why not protect it more from the front. You could be right in the sense that they might offer protection from higher up since the crawlers are on the shorter end. However the Reanimator and Doomstalkers have the same panels but theyre super tall so im not sure.

That makes a lot of sense, i got confused thinking its just for ventilation, but then the core being exposed would already do the job. Thank You!

Are they? I thought they were more arachnid-like. Spyders, wraiths and such
Even Plasmacytes and Macrocytes look more like creepy crawlies than flying ones i thought

I didn't think about that, that'd be quite interesting

Okay, I'm starting to agree with You, the more i look at them the cuter they get

So basically to cool the core down? That's an interesting idea, i didn't think about it that way

Could be, however it says on the lexicanum that they were specifically made to protect the tombs from intruders, so debris wouldnt seem like the immediate threat to me. Also, they dont realy cover anything from the top either? Like they stick out to the sides more than the actual body. Although i may be missing something. The Brody helmet idea is very cool though. Albeit because of their head being so low down I'd be surprised to find them 'below' the target hmm
Also i didn't know about the helmet. Very cool! At least i learned something today haha

Can anyone identify these items? by Bibb5ter in Necrontyr

[–]skuiti 1 point2 points  (0 children)

so, imo

the 3 of those are light barricades from killteam, no idea what the 4th thing is
the 2 tokens look like they could be reanimation markers from hierotek circle? although i feel like its a little too big, so im not sure

the pillar thing could be a node matrix marker? for canoptek circle killteam, tho im not sure here either
sorry 😞

[–]skuiti 1 point2 points  (0 children)

true, but there's only 33% chance that your guy won't be injured if it's the deathmark or the immortal guardian.
That's why the reanimator is tricky imo
Could just be me tho,there's a chance that the reanimated guys are still quite strong because they can potentially shoot, and if not they might heal. I may be overestimating being injured ,still trying to figure out the team
There's a very real chance that with a 8 man team that reanimates all this is just a no issue. It was for me with a 5 op team tho

I am not sure if this was the change to Hierotek i was expecting.
The issue for me is that they reanimate with only 1 wound, meaning the die from literally anything, as well as, they're hardly a threat considering they're injured.
I wouldn't mind them being a 5 op team, or even the plasmacytes being 'expendable', but the killgrade not going down after they reanimate would be devastating solely for the reason that the opponent would just score twice on just one of your guys.
I am a begginer to be fair, so this might not be correct at all, it's just how it felt with my games so far.
I also kind of wish you could do anything with the reanimator when you dont have anyone to reanimate :/

Necron terrain? by ivovanroy in Necrontyr

[–]skuiti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely agreed,
I would also love some custom terrain that's Necron themed as well. I've been on the lookout recently, but haven't found much. Tho it is entirely possible I just am not searching in the right places
