You can still only fire it once a game, but when you do its S16 AP-5 andflat damage 6. With Ctan in general just being all round great, expect to see these a lot more. While the nerf toExtermination Protocols stings, the fact that it still gives you full wound re-rolls means that the high-rate firepower from the gauss cannons can adapt to almost any target. I do think well see less Sautekh than we used to simply (ironically) because of how muchbetter this book is now. The tradeoff for all of this is that you have to think ahead. These are mostly pretty similar to what they were before, and honestly several of them end up looking like a bit of a downgrade. Theres also a couple of notable downgrades. However, if you need something,anything really dead, use the big swing. With the new book in play, Necrons play pretty much how youd expect just from looking at them. For 2CP, this lets them ignore invulnerable saves for all their attacks in the phase, helping to add to how utterly horrendous they now are. ReplacingPhaerons WIll, for 2CP this upgrades one of your Overlords to be a PHAERON, and lets them useMy Will Be Done twice a turn. Games Workshop Warhammer 40,000 Codex: NECRONS. Souped up to 9W, so stilljust below the LoSir limit, Quantum Shielded and able to float around at greater speeds, it does everything an Overlord does (including having the OVERLORD and NOBLE keywords where it matters) but tougher and faster. Lets imagine that youre now into the game and want to start flensing the galactic usurpers into nothingness. They gain theextremely eye-catching ability of army-wide ObSec (models that have it already count as 2), and ignore an AP of -1 while wholly within their deployment zone. Just add Codex-Necron-9th-Edition of rdjohnson1993 to My Favorites. Technomancer, Cloak, Phylacterine Hive 100, Troops He has shooting hit re-roll and melee wound re-roll auras for CORE and TRIARCH PRAETORIANS, which switch off as he loses Triarch members. Theres plenty of good choices, but the stuff you can add to a Technomancer feels the strongest by far, and the Fail-safe Overcharger in particular seens incredibly well set up to support Canoptek heavy Novokh lists. 150. Thats a nice implicit trade-off from no longer being able to buff to 3++. Its alsowild on Ctan shards thanks to their Necrodermis rule preventing them from losing more than three wounds in a phase. Finally, theCanoptek Reanimator. Starting off with the previous biggest cheese of the Necrons,Imotekh gains a lot. The only sources of that are Canoptek Reanimators, which still have a terrible statline and theOrb of Eternity relic. Rather than turning off Auras (theoretically good, clunky on a slow model in practice), now once per game when an opponent tries to use a stratagem you can just say no, it isnt activated (so no CP are spent) and cant be used for the rest of the battle round. These do all sorts of stuff. The wound re-rolls were the most important part of the effect, and this will still see heavy use in any army running Lokhusts, but its not as spicy as it might have been. However, the good news is that they benefit hugely from the updated Reanimation Protocols (which they re-roll 1s on), have a tonne of strats to boost their damage output and also see the gauss reaper get better from Indomitus, now being Assault 2 12 rather than Rapid Fire 1 15. It is also 100% why I dont see many people bothering with Nihilakh why take the mediocre protection in your deployment zone with ObSec when you can instead start 6 up the board and/or hide units like Destroyers behind a wall as needed. I could not be more thrilled about this book and cant wait to get my spooky silver horde on the table, and I hope if youre a Necron player youre now feeling the same way. Across the board, this book provides a lot of good options for a melee strategy, and Novokh supports that exceptionally well, giving it a good chance of being one of the strongest dynasties. Boooooooo. All of the Named Characters from the previous edition return, and theres quite a few upgrades. Medium scan. Cryptek Arcana, purchaseable space wizard upgrades. Thats a massive upgrade for most situations, and any warriors riding in Ghost Arks probably want the reapers. The Szarekhan dynasty feel like they favour ranged war machines. This hits at S14, AP-4 for d6 damage, ignores invulns and, in the final kicker, bypasses any abilities that prevent damage. At 75pts, I think thisll see use as its priced right for a utility tool, but its not quite the instant slam-dunk that, say, the Kelermorph was. They get some buffs, gaining T5 at base and having their gauss option go up to 30 range, but the downside is that Tesla is way weaker than it used to be, only triggering on an unmodified 6 and here having a 2PPM price premium. After deploying, your opponent picks three objective markers, and at the end of your turn you get points for holding those 2VP for 1, 3VP for 2, 5VP for all three. At the point whereeverythingin a bubble is taking 2-3 mortals, with more to come in later turns, some armies have a real problem. Hes the boss. If youre up against these, you need to try and pack damage into them whenever possible. Given that most units with the ability had a point premium that assumed it would sometimes do something, this hurt like hell. Ghazghkulls ability? The good news is that theyre now a lot better at that, and in particular the ones that can interact with VEHICLES are a bit stronger. Finally, if all else fails and your opponent managed to viciously destroy one of your vehicles, you can auto-explode it withCurse of the Phaeron for 1CP (or 3CP for TITANIC). Each of these has a prepostorous flat damage 6 doom beam on them as long as theyre up. The Nightbringer doesnt really need it, but even for him it can be relevant if they need to use their sweep attack against some targets. Previously, the Sautekh warlord trait and some of the characters were duct tape desperately trying to hold together a terrible faction now it might turn out you simply have better options. It still cant reliably kill a marine in a single . This is also great news for existing Necron players pretty much whatever set of tools you have access to, there will be a way to put them together that leverages the new book. Zandrekh is quite a bit improved, but with everything being pricy its still hard to justify his cost. InBattlefield Supremacywe have two choices Purge the Vermin andThe Treasures of the Aeons. Even with 20 Warrior blobs, I can tell you from repeat personal experience that competent opponents would just burst them down in a single turn, deleting them without you ever getting a chance to trigger this. You can activate this after an enemy unit destroys one of your characters, and at the end of the phase a Canoptek Doomstalker from your army can shoot at the unit responsible, and gets +1 to hit against that target for the rest of the game. He starts with two Menhirs that have to take wounds first. This page was last edited on 10 December 2022, at 13:02. For it to be great, however, the effects need to be good, so lets take a look. Necrons feel like theyre going to reward players who really get to know their army. My favourite Dynasty doesnt disappoint Nephrekh keep a modified version of their old translocation effect, and gain an army-wide 6++. They comes with a standard-ish hero statline, and has two buff effects My Will Be Done (MWBD)and Relentless March. This is another one where you can, on some maps, plausibly start scoring it early and then sweep up abig score from turn 4 to 5 if youve mostly tidied up your opponents army. No feel no pains allowed. With that option open I guess you can maybe make this work (and its obviously considerably better against pure melee matchups) but the use remains so clunky that Im yet to be convinced this is something I want in my armies. Skorpekh Destroyers 105 My absolute favourite stratagem from this book, and going straight into the big leagues of high-quality strat names with Long, Uncontrolled Bursts,we haveRevenge of the Doomstalker. Well, the important takewaways are: The last point is worth exploring. There is a list of six of these, each with two effects, and after deployment butbefore the first turn roll-off you choose five of these and assign one to each of the five battle rounds of the game. Being a cheap character you can plonk down to spread Command Protocols is also an inherant upside. They have six enmitic pistols and always hits on a 2+ (even on overwatch) and can do quite a number on horde stuff (getting to shoot a pistol again for each model killed on the first volley) but for the apparent purpose of dropping in and intercepting stuff they end up a bit lacklustre the guns are only AP-1 D1, so against anything crunchy theres a limit to how good hell be. The trait lets you pick four protocols instead of five, and choose to double up one of them for two rounds. This is an incredibly potent buff, and especially good with the spiicy Canoptek Doomstalker. * We'll be taking a closer look at those rules tomorrow. Ophydian Destroyers can burrow back into deep strike to return on the following turn, while Tomb Blades can advance and shoot without penalty, treating Rapid Fire weapons as Assault when they do so. Each time you complete this, you get 3VP. That means mixed-dynasty lists switch these off, likely making them quite rare. Fearless, relentless, and utterly without mercy, they advance in serried ranks and lay down withering storms of fire fit to annihilate even the mightiest of foes. Their warlord trait lets the warlord Fight First, their stratagem lets them shoot while performing an action, and their relic toughens up the bearer. With any gauss weapon, including the new reapers, you can also popDisintegration Capacitors, auto-wounding on unmodified 6s to hit. In terms of killing power, the Nightbringer is in a league apart from, well, damn nearanyone. For Necrons specifically, extra warlord traits help because of the mandate to make a NOBLE your warlord. 6 6th Edition. Theres almost certainly still a use case for him in Novokh, as you can stack him with their strat to turn a unit of Warriors into an absolute blender, but elsewhere hes probably a bit weaker, especially given as mixed Dynasty lists (which he used to help enable) are going to be very rare. Interested in flipbooks about 9ed Codex [Chaos] - Heretic Astartes - Thousand Sons? Novokh also benefit from the Protocol of the Hungry Void being one of the strongest, and working well with the Silent King. When it stays still its guns now get a tonne better, making them actually pretty potent (though lacking in AP), and the gravity pulse is now a targeted effect that slows down fliers and can put mortals on planes. Amalgamated Targeting Data OK, I guess if youre still stuck on the 8th model of playing Necrons this one stings too, but in practical terms taking three Doom Scythes is almost certainly not what you want to be doing in 9th. I think these are probably good now, it just baffles me what the criteria for not being CORE is. Technomancers, one of the Cryptek sub-classes, can now reanimate a single dead NECRON CORE model from a unit (or d3 Warriors) in your command phase in homage to their old abilities, but dont expect to be routinely rolling this on a 4+. I could imagine using this on a Skorpekh lord who Ive also tanked up withEnduring Will. Like with the Nihilakh the faction trait here is alittle underwhelming. You can find out more about which cookies we are using or switch them off in settings. Also being CORE these generally seem pretty reasonable all round, especially if youre bringing some of the buff characters and I fear the main thing thats going to hold them back is that Triarch Praetorians got aneven bigger glow up, come in the same box and are cheaper. All Ctan also know two powers the named ones all have a unique one and one from the list, while the Transcendant picks two from the list. Last in this section is theTriarch Stalker. I must admit that despite the extremely eye-catching core ability Im not super sold on Nihilakh. If you beat it, you get to pick one of four debuffs, including stripping off Objective Secured, making them unable to perform Actions, slowing them down or suppressing Overwatch in your next turn.

Dimensional Corridor Teleport a unit to a monolith. Overall, huge fan its flavourful, interesting, powerful and generates a lot of depth and meaningful decisions. Overall, given hes still pricy, probably for specific lists only. Up to three objectives in no-mans land get selected (one by you, two by your opponent) and one or more CORE and CANOPTEK units in your army can perform an action on them lasting from the end of your movement phase to your next command phase, as long as there are no enemies within range when you start. These both cost 1CP per use, and can be used: Scaling the uses of this sort of thing by mission size, and standardising across all armies, feels like an elegant solution and were glad to see this. Ironically this still basically does what it did before (lets you roll reanimation for one unit at +1) but thats obviously a much bigger deal now that getting to do a full-squad roll is only available via Orbs, and +1 is way harder to get. Hes got all the buffs and auras youd expect of a Phaeron, but all of these effect NECRON CORE and TRIARCH PRAETORIANS. Tomb Blades and Annihilation Barges really come into their own, while using large numbers of gauss flayer equipped warriors to leverage the various strats that boost rapid fire weapons also feels like a potential option. The AP improvement is also subtly good with Canoptek Scarabs now these auto-wound on 6s to hit, boosting their AP makes a bit difference. This book ismassive. Crypteks as we knew them in 8th have kind of been split into theTechnomancerandChronomancer, thePlasmancer returns from Indomitus and theyre joined by new friend thePsychomancer. 20 Warriors, flayers 260 He still gets the warlord trait and strat unlock, which is still good. They also have a very swingy ranged attack. The ObSec is obviously greatbut it also appears on the custom trait list, and the second half of their Code is considerably less powerful than some of the other things you can combine it with. Ill have to get around to either painting my new one or sticking my old one on a big ziggurat made of plasticard and the new massive base and calling the job a goodun. Well dive into the specifics of the new version of Reanimation in a second, but it just being everywhere without you having to think about it now is great. The other new toy is more of a comedy option, being a relic Tachyon Arrow. I could be wrong here, as the flexible offense is decent, but I dont expect these to feature in top lists in anywhere near their previous numbers. c+c welcome. This guy issuper pushed, and I think the premium anti-tank ranged option available to the faction once you buddy them up with aCanoptek Control Node Technomancer. Moving on to theLokhust Heavy Destroyers, Im still not quite sure what to think about them. When Ive taken it in the past its almost always been on Crypteks, and while I think a vanilla Lord probably still benefits from the extra durability, I dont see it winning out over the good stuff. He comes bearing an absurd panoply of buffs, gets one of the best warlord traits in the book, and slots into a Supreme Command detachment as the first newly added SUPREME COMMANDER. Bookmark. Contact us Invite friends Gifts Scribd for enterprise Support My plan is to take a Tesla cannon on my Catacomb Command Barge so Ive always got access to this in a pinch. Several units get some options here. Running three singles with the big gun in Szerakhan isextremely funny, but having thought about it I suspect the main other place you might see multiples of these is in Mephrit. TheReanimation Prioritisation strat makes this just that bit closer to worthwhile as alpha strike prevention, as you can hide it behind terrain (but still able to see the unit you want to protect at an angle or something) and turn the beam on when your more precious stuff is shot. Also in melee land,Flayed Ones pick up some boosts, but areweirdly held back by not being CORE. Oh the Nightbringer. Overall, having these additional options is great, which does kind of circle around to how these will be handled at events in the early part of 9th. You do lose out on the additional bonuses, but there are a couple of unique and very potent effects on the custom trait list that genuinely feel like they might be worth experimenting with.

The new book represents a near ground-up redesign of the faction, both unlocking a huge array of new choices and giving us a hint of the direction that Games Workshop want to take 9th Edition. Top marks. One is deliberately designed to be something I can play straight away with the models I have, while one leans heavily into the new range and upgrades. All of this is brought together by being slightly cheaper, and combined with access to powerful strats on the offence and defence theres got to be a place for these in Novokh, where the +1 to charges out of deep strike and the stratagem really helps. Warhammer 40k 9th edition Codex pdfs My normal site that I grab these from has been shutdown and I'm looking to grab up all the 9th edition codex if anyone has them to share or knows where I can grab them. There are lots of ways you can make him do more than that though. The advent os strategic reserves opening up the option to deep strike them in any dynasty is obviously great, and you can now add a Lokhust Heavy in addition to 6 regulars instead of replacing one (though I expect 4+1 to be the default setup for Blast reasons). Hyperlogical Strategist is also back, providing CP regen, and their new relic is very good, allowing you to make a unit within 3 fight last tasty on a Skorpekh Lord. The Doom Scythe, once the terror of all the foes of the Necrons, probably ends up on the bench for now. This pretty much works how it did before, letting your unit appear from deep strike and shoot an enemy deep striker, but gets improved by allowing you to be up to 18 away from the targetand, importantly, letting you use it to do the intercept shoot part of it even if you were already on the table. Its also handy for making sure youre in position to make use of any Arcana youve brought along. Whats a review without a couple of lists?

Expert observers may recognise that as free, reliable Vect which is quite the thing. They are led to war by undying nobles wielding weapons of devastating power, driven by the absolute conviction that they are the rightful rulers of the stars. They keep their deep strike, trade wound re-rolls out for extra hits on 6s against non-VEHICLEs and -1AP, and have a flat -2Ld aura. Just like most armies, Necrons have sub-factions each specialising in different aspects of warfare, in this case the Dynasties.

The hyper-resilient Necron soldiery are supported by murderous specialist units, techno-sorcerous war machines, mindless Canoptek constructs, and shards of shattered star gods. Wraiths and Tomb Spiders are both melee units priced to move now, and this makes both of them quite a bit better. .

Largely unchanged from the existing version. Hes also both dangerous and a pain to deal with in melee, as forcing enemies to fight last means that glass cannon units like Repentia, who absolutely will not stand up to his attacks, cant really engage with him. Speaking of which. Its the statline thats the real gold though. I think this will see experimentation it may turn out not to quite work, but this is such an out-there capability that it needs to be properly looked at. The Silent King.
