Cairn Class Tombship


Cairn Class Tombships are the largest Necron ships encountered by the Imperium. They are massive and terrifyingly well-armed craft, perfectly capable of defeating any battleship in the Gothic Sector. This massive warship is constantly accompaneid by a Scythe Class Harvest Ship each time it's encountered.

Scythe Class Harvest Ship


Scythe Class Harvest Ship

Necron Fleets are normally accompanied by at least one Scythe Class Harvest Ship. This ship is considered to be lightly built  compared to Imperium massive ships in the Gothic Sector according to its outer apperance  but recent encounters with the Scythe shown that it's extremely durable and can take a huge amount of firepower punishment from Imperium ships. The Imperium had only managed to disable three ships so far and in all cases it took the combined concentrated firepower of several capital ships before going down.

Necrontyr Weapons[]

Necrontyr weaponry are extremely powerful and comparable to the Eldar's advanced weapons.


Lightning Arc: A special weaponry that stores solar energy as it's main source of power.When activated,it will release the stored solar energy as tendrils of energy that can engulf an enemy vessel and subsequently destroys the engulfed vessel. In game terms,they act like weapon batteries that can  ignore  any holo/shadow fields and count the target as closing.


Star Pulse Generator: This weapon is an area of effect weapon,when activated,it will release a huge energy burst that can annihilate any ships that ventured too close to Necron ships.


Gauss Particle Whip: Each of the Necron ships comes equipped with the dreaded Gauss Particle Whip. Similar in working principle as the Gauss weapon mainly found on the Necron Monolith and Pylons,this weapon is capable of hitting far targets with potent firepower.
