Should a Necron be slain, its body becomes wreathed in an eerie glow. Crawling limbs reattach. Sundered torsos and smashed skulls reform amidst emerald sparks. Witch lights flare back to life within dead eye-lenses and the Necron rises again, shambling back into their battle line. Those Necrons too catastrophically damaged to reform vanish instead, teleported away to their tombs for repair. If your Army Faction is NECRONS, at the end of your Command phase, each friendly unit with this ability that is on the battlefield activates its **Reanimation Protocols**: ▪ When a unit’s **Reanimation Protocols** activate, that unit **heals** D3 wounds. **Example:** A unit of Lokhust Destroyers (which have a Wounds characteristic of 3) activates its Reanimation Protocols. The unit had a Starting Strength of 3, but currently contains 2 models, and one of those models has lost 1 wound. A 3 is rolled to see how many wounds are reanimated. The first of these reanimated wounds restores the wounded Lokhust Destroyer back to 3 wounds. The second of these reanimated wounds returns the destroyed Lokhust Destroyer to the battlefield with 1 wound remaining. The third of these reanimated wounds restores one of the remaining lost wounds to the same Lokhust Destroyer that was just returned. The unit now contains 3 models, two of which have 3 wounds remaining and one of which has 2 wounds remaining. 79 stratagems ## Detachments Each detachment's own rules, then the stratagems it unlocks. ## Annihilation Legion 6 stratagems ### Annihilation Protocol The most murderous Necrons of an Annihilation Legion retain no thought processes beyond destroying anything in reach. They are mechanised death, echoes of the industrialised and brutal processes of bio transference made manifest. Whether soullessly efficient or frenziedly deluded, these killing machines follow protocols that have atrophied into a singular and all-consuming insanity. Each time a DESTROYER CULT or FLAYED ONES unit from your army **declares a charge**, you can re-roll the **Charge roll**. If one or more targets of that charge are Below Half-strength, add 1 to the Charge roll as well. Each time a DESTROYER CULT unit from your army makes a ranged attack that targets the closest eligible target, add 1 to the Armour Penetration characteristic of that attack. 1 CP Strategic Ploy Either turn ### MASKS OF DEATH Shooting · Fight Wreathed in tendrils of transdimensional shadow that intensify their deathly visages, these killing machines evoke such terror that steady aims tremble and blade arms are sapped of strength. When Your opponent’s Shooting phase or the Fight phase, just after an enemy unit has selected its targets. Target One DESTROYER CULT or FLAYED ONES unit from your army that was selected as the target of one or more of the attacking unit’s attacks. Effect Until the end of the phase, each time an attack targets your unit, subtract 1 from the Hit roll. 1 CP Battle Tactic Either turn ### THE SPOOR OF FRAILTY Shooting · Fight Where one foe falls, logic dictates all others must follow.

Target One DESTROYER CULT or FLAYED ONES unit from your army that has not been selected to shoot or fight this phase. Effect Until the end of the phase, each time a model from your unit makes an attack that targets a unit below Starting Strength, add 1 to the Hit roll. If the target is Below Half-strength, add 1 to the Wound roll as well. 1 CP Battle Tactic Either turn ### MURDEROUS REANIMATION Fight Through some quirk of their kind's shared insanity, a spark of gruesome satisfaction surges through them with every enemy life snuffed out, triggering quiescent power reserves that drive them onwards. When Fight phase. Target One DESTROYER CULT or FLAYED ONES unit from your army that has just destroyed an enemy unit, or just caused an enemy unit that was not Below Half-strength to become Below Half-strength. Effect Your unit’s **Reanimation Protocols** activate. 1 CP Battle Tactic Either turn ### PITILESS HUNTERS Fight Driven into a state of hyperaggression, an Annihilation Legion's most eager hunters plunge into their prey's midst to maximise their butchery.

Effect Until the end of the phase, each time a model in your unit makes a Pile-in or Consolidation move, it can move up to 6" instead of up to 3". 1 CP Battle Tactic Opponent's turn ### BLOOD-FUELLED CRUELTY Movement Whatever strange afflictions eat away at the sanity of Destroyers and Flayed Ones, mercy is not one of them.

Target One DESTROYER CULT or FLAYED ONES unit from your army that started the phase within Engagement Range of that enemy unit.

Your unit can then make a **Normal move**, but must end that move as close as possible to that enemy unit. 1 CP Strategic Ploy Opponent's turn ### INSANITY’S IRE Shooting To strike down one horror is merely to draw the rest of the pack's insane and murderous focus. When Your opponent’s Shooting phase, when an enemy unit that targeted a friendly **unengaged** DESTROYER CULT / FLAYED ONES unit this phase has shot. Target That DESTROYER CULT/FLAYED ONES unit. Effect Your unit can make a **surge move** of up to D6". ## Awakened Dynasty 6 stratagems ### Command Protocols The Necron nobility and their high-ranking courtiers make war in a codified and relentless fashion. Their command protocols crackle out across multi-dimensional spectra from carrier-wave projectors, compelling their semi-sentient soldiery into battle one overriding directive at a time While a NECRONS CHARACTER model is leading this unit, each time a model in this unit makes an attack, add 1 to the Hit roll. 1 CP Epic Deed Either turn ### PROTOCOL OF THE ETERNAL REVENANT Any phase Necron rulers possess enhanced self-repair systems.

If a NECRONS CHARACTER is leading your unit, until the end of the phase, you can re-roll the Hit roll for that attack instead. 2 CP Strategic Ploy Opponent's turn ### PROTOCOL OF THE VENGEFUL STARS Shooting Criss-crossfire leaps from the Necron ranks, forming a blazing corona of deadly energy to punish those who dare threaten the indignant nobility's legions. When Your opponent’s Shooting phase, just after an enemy unit destroys a NECRONS unit from your army. Target One NECRONS CHARACTER unit from your army that was within 6" of that NECRONS unit when it was destroyed.

Restrictions You can only use this Stratagem once. ## Cryptek Conclave 6 stratagems ### Technosorcerous Augmentations Whether building on one anothers’ shared results or vying to produce the most ingenious adaptations, the Crypteks treat the battlefield as an opportunity to test their latest scientific and technological breakthroughs. ▪ Ranged weapons equipped by CRYPTEK models from your army have the \[ASSAULT\] ability. ▪ In your Shooting phase, each time a CRYPTEK unit from your army is selected to shoot, select one of the following abilities: \[ANTI-INFANTRY 3+\], \[ANTI-MOUNTED 4+\], \[ASSAULT\], \[HEAVY\], \[IGNORES COVER\].

If it is a CRYPTEK unit, it reanimates an additional 1 wound. ## Cursed Legion 6 stratagems ### Cold Fervour The fury of the Destroyers and – by extension – of the cursed legion is not a wild or reckless thing.

Note that even if this charge is successful, your unit does not receive any Charge bonus this turn. ## Deranged Outcasts Boarding Actions 4 stratagems ### Terrifying Charge The murderous onslaughts of the Destroyer Cults and the hideous skin-wearing Flayed Ones are utterly terrifying to their living victims.
