40k just ends with Necrons vs Tyranids doesn't it? All sentient and mortal races succumb to Chaos, Orks, entropy, but Chaos can't do shit to Tyranids and Necrons.
>>
>>50261861
Robin Cruddace nerfs Tyranids once again. A single gaunt is now 1500 points, BS1, WS1, W1, I1, S1, A1, Sv-. Tyranid warriors 4000 point superheavies, BS2, WS2, W2, I2, A2, Sv6+, Hive Tyrants are 100,000 points, BS3, WS3, W3, I3, A3.

Everything can kill tyranids now, even a guardsman in CC.

Necrons win.
>>
But can (or would) Tyranids and Necrons do shit to each other?
>>
>>50261861
40k ends when people stop buying GW's bullshit not a second before, and don't you dare think they wont pull a rabbit out of their ass to add to the clusterfuck and compete with the Necrons and Tyranids if they think someone will buy it .

>>50261934
It's heavily skewed against the Nids there.

>cant evolve proof against gauss weaponry
>tomb worlds are lifeless already
>necron self-repair BS and metal bodies are resistant to biological weapons

I doubt a full necron force could drive a hive fleet from a planet. But pound for pound necrons would inflict hideous damage while robbing the nids of dead to reclaim. A running battle would drain the hive of resources
>>
>>50261958
I think more importantly, the Nids wouldn't have any reason to attack the Necrons, would the Necrons have any reason to fight the Nids though?

Necrons can convert Tyranids into new Necrons

Tyranids lose. Next.

Tyranids can be spotted by the loud buzz they make in the warp, what Imperial psycher call "a shadow across the warp."

Necrons though don't have that.
>>
>>50262018
If humanity is dead then most of the galaxy is now like the Eye of Terror. Neither Crons nor Nids could survive in that for long if Chaos wished it.
>>
>>50262018
Chaos wrecks the Tyranids and Necrons regardless.

Also is going to destroy all of reality. Necrons and Tyranids inside the galaxy will dissolve into nothing when the walls of reality finally break.
>>
>>50262021
>a bloodthirster
Demons have no biomass.

>necron pylons
Necrons anti-warp tech have wildly different levels of success in the fluff. It could just be that the tech that made the cadian pylons for example is lost to time.
>>
>>50262021
>>Nids will eat even a bloodthirster

Tyranids who eat daemon flesh, die.
Also Tyranids avoid eating tainted flesh.

>Necron Pylons

The Newcron have no plan to seal the warp or combat the Warp. This was solely Oldcron lore.

Newcron anti-warp tech has been overcome before because they are fragile devices and require a ton of energy to use.
>>
The Cadian Pylons present a glaring plothole in the fluff. If they are anti-warp, then how come daemons can manifest on Cadia and sorcery both Imperial and chaotic can be used with no issue?

Going by what we know about Necron null tech :

1-They make it really difficult for daemons to manifest and for psykers to use their abilities, if not shutting them down completely
2-They obscure the Golden Light of Terra
3-They cripple warp engines, making it impossible to warp travel
Among other things.

The Cadian pylons don't show any of this.
>>
>>50262101
>If they are anti-warp
They're not anti-warp they're pro-reality. It was the Oldcron C'tans way of fighting back. Blanks were a secondary thing for the pariahs.

>>
>>50262175
There are similar necron structures to the pylons in the Ghoul Stars. They are said to be anathema to daemons. They suck warp energy out of anything nearby.

The greater daemon who went there couldn't manifest on the planet that had them so he possessed a cultists to circumvent this.
>>
>>50261861
>Chaos can't do shit to Tyranids and Necrons.

But it can.
It can dissolve reality, destroying time and space and therefore Necrons and Tyranids.
>>
>>50262032

If humanity is dead chaos is also dead. More or less.

Chaos gains power from the thoughts of sentient beings. Thanks to the xenocide thing, humanity is the bulk of sentient beings in the galaxy. The next biggest race are the Tau and they're barely present in the warp.

Chaos as a whole is lot like Tzeentch, yknow, how he has to keep scheming constantly because thats his nature but if he ever actually won he'd be fucked because he wouldnt need to scheme anymore.

Chaos has to continually attempt to corrupt and destroy humanity. But if they ever won - really won - the galaxy would be the eye of terror for like a week before it all collapsed in on itself.
>>
>>50263086
Chaos would survive as it is beyond time.
>>
>>50263102

>Chaos would survive as it is beyond time.

Kay?

That's a weird way of putting it. Can i assume you're also this guy: >>50263038? With some really weird fixation on the ultimate powers of 'space und time'?

If Chaos is so totally beyond time how are chaos gods born in a very clear timeline? We know when Slaanesh was born. What is born, can die. If it has a beginning, it has an end.

And i did specify chaos is dead 'more or less'. Yes, chaos itself IS going to 'survive'. As long as there is even a fraction of thought in the galaxy, there's going to be something left of chaos. And no matter how bad it gets, something will probably be left. But there's not going to be a swarming eye of terror when 99.9999% of the creature giving them their power are dead.

If the universe gets to the point where Necrons and the Hivefleets are the only real players anymore, Chaos is essentially out of the game too. At best it gets to wait a couple of billion years for some corruptible new species to rise up. And then probably some new chaos gods spawn, since the old ones have probably starved to death.
>>

>>
>>50263180
>That's a weird way of putting it.

Not really. The rulebook out and out says that Chaos will destroy all space and time and that in the end the only thing remaining will be Chaos.

>If Chaos is so totally beyond time how are chaos gods born in a very clear timeline?

They're not.
In the example of Slaanesh the effect of the birth ruptured into physical space at that time, but Slaanesh had always existed.

>Yes, chaos itself IS going to 'survive'. As long as there is even a fraction of thought in the galaxy

They'll be around whether the galaxy is or is not. There are other galaxies and other universes. Chaos is a multiversal threat.

I seriously doubt that, anon. If chaos hasn't been able to do that with an entire galaxy's worth of humans feeding it with psychic energy, then it's not going to happen after humanity has been decimated by tyranid/necron/ork invasions.

No, that's not the scenario we are discussing. Look at OP. He implies that only Necrons and Tyranids will survive to duck it out. This won't happen as Chaos is the closet faction to its victory and the Necrons and Tyranids are aiding Chaos by weakening the Imperium.

In fact, the Leviathan is going straight to Terra. If somehow the Hive Fleet takes out Terra, then Chaos will flood the galaxy.

Chaos is not a car.

Wrong analogy. It needs them as gateways.

>>50263621
>But are the Chaos Gods?

Yes. As the warp is without time and Chaos is native to the warp they are also without time.
>>
>>50263609
Everything born in the Warp is timeless and immortal. Source is the 2nd/3ED Eldar codex. Even if real space is destroyed, Chaos will persist.

>>50263607
Warp doesn't answer to time or space.

>>50263614
It's a movie trailer narrator drumming up interest, not a factual statement. Theres simply nothing indicating that this is GW's take on the canon. It's just hype.
>>
>>50263569
>>50263577

Chaos derives its powers from the minds of mortals. That is at the very core of that faction.

If Chaos wins - truly wins - all mortals are dead.

They get the eye of terror shit. They get the monstrous nightmare reality. All the worst stuff the Empire fears happens, will happen. But eventually, everything is still dead.

So if Chaos wins, Chaos loses.

And this even matches up with Chaos' own damn theme of being its own worst enemy.

Find me the logical problem with this, and describe it to me in a way that can't be described as 'Chaos-Fag Says Nuh-Uh!'
>>
>>50263645
>It's a movie trailer narrator drumming up interest, not a factual statement.

Prove it.

>Theres simply nothing indicating that this is GW's take on the canon.

Besides the fact that they wrote it and included it across several editions, as well as outright stating that Chaos is the greatest threat.
>>
>>50263645
Nope, it's from the main rulebook in the section explaining the Emperor and his ties to humanity's psychic evolution which will be taken over by Chaos if he fails or dies.

This a fluff statement about the setting, like it or not.
>>
>>50263656
Again, with the headcanon and opinion vs fluff.

By the way, with time destroyed, Chaos will spend an eternity in a limbo with trillion upon trillions of souls of the galaxy for them to torment ceaselessly. Everything being dead won't matter a single bit when time is frozen at the peak of Chaos's power.
>>
>>50263656
>Chaos derives its powers from the minds of mortals.

And a common theme through cultures across the world is that the mind transcends the physical. Chaos transcends the physical too, being beings of pure psychic energy.

>So if Chaos wins, Chaos loses.

Nope. Chaos can exist without mortals. Mortals minds facilitated their creation but once they existed they will always exist.
>>
>>50263636
So... If the Chaos Gods are immortal and timeless (which is weird, since wasn't it noted their powers sometimes waxed and waned in accordance to how mortal races are doing?) and can't die, they still have an issue with getting into realspace. Sure, the Eye of Terror can expand but could it expand beyond the galaxy into the void between galaxies with no sentient life there? Hive Fleets would survive there.
Necron Tomb Worlds could survive, but only if they bring ALL of the bullshit tech Necrons are said to have and play it fast and loose with the C'tan shards. That could set up the situation OP portrays as without any emotions left, the mega Eye of Terror stops expanding and maybe even shrinks enough for Nid v Necron stuff.
>>
>>50263661
Putting a dramatic quote at the very beginning of a work is basic literary device, what's there left to prove.
>>50263666
That's your interpretation of a fluff piece, I don't agree, and I'm not going to hold it relevant to the discussion at hand.

Anyway, I think necrons are going to be the winners in the long run. They can go dormant while tyranid/ork hordes decimate humanity, which starves the chaos of psychic energy and eventually stills the warp. Then they can come out and mop up whatever remains if they feel like it or not.
>>
>>50263708
OK, but how do beings like Khorne and the other Chaos Gods still exist? Things never change, which sucks for Mr. Just as Planned, Nurgle has no more Plaguebearer supplies and no great source of despair, Slaanesh loses their favorite topping of Eldar souls and eventually excess becomes too commonplace while Daemons, being psychic beings, have no blood and skulls for Khorne.

No, it's not. I provided actual fluff from the rulebooks, You spouted opinions and provided nothing. Clearly your part is lacking in the discussion.
>>
>>50263410
Which is just common sense really. Hive Fleets, between invasions, can easily starve due to lack of biomass and move really slowly. A Hive Fleet could spend years trapped in a Warp Storm and lose so much Biomass they aren't a problem.
Really, I feel like compared to most other faction leaders/gods, the Hive Mind maybe the most sensible.
>>
>>50263778
To be frank I do not care.
>>
>>50263720
>Hive Fleets would survive there.

Sure, but what we're discussing is the galaxy.

>That could set up the situation OP portrays as without any emotions left, the mega Eye of Terror stops expanding and maybe even shrinks

Emotions are irrelevant at that stage. Space and time and matter has already been destroyed in the galaxy.

>>50263730
>Putting a dramatic quote at the very beginning of a work is basic literary device

It's not at the beginning.

>starves the chaos of psychic energy and eventually stills the warp.

That's not how it works.

>>50263739
>OK, but how do beings like Khorne and the other Chaos Gods still exist?

Because they exist beyond the physical universe. Space and time are destroyed but they're beyond all that.

When all physical universes are destroyed the Chaos Gods will continue to fight each other.
>>
>>50263784
>trapped in a Warp Storm

Where it can be attacked by daemons or mutated by Chaos energy. Daemons given the chance will attack Tyranids. They have done so with glee in real space even, manifesting inside hive ships.

The problem here is that when Abaddon breaks down Cadia, the Eye of Terror will grow and grow until it covers all the galaxy.

What do daemons attack without glee? Like, seriously, daemons plunge in battle dick first, bar some Greater Daemons.
If the Eye of Terror covers the galaxy, then the Fleets outside the galaxy just head somewhere else, though will have to cannibalise each other to survive.

Metal-eating acid, bio-plasma, whatever else you want.

Tyranids avoid dead worlds. They do not invade worlds for rocks. They want biomass.

Also according to "Words of the Silent King", Tyranids aren't interested in the Necrons and will only attack them if attacked or provoked. Also states that the Necrons are not fodder for the Hive fleets.

>It's evolution, we don't have to explain shit.

Proof it.

Necrons were the first foes encountered by the Tyranids. Despite of this, no evolutions came up to counter their weapons.

>Through the power of fanboyism, anything is possible.

It ain't fanboyism. Necrons hard counter the Tyranids.

Necrons control space and can blow up starts at will using their many superweapons.

Gauss and energy weapons of the Necrons leave no biomass behind. Necrons are not edible for the Tyranids, even worser still that eating living metal proved to be lethal in one case when the kroot who ate it got infected by a nanoscarab plague.

Also the most important part, attrition. The Tyranids suck at attrition vs enemies that can recycle their dead. The Necron don't just recycle their dead, they can convert dead Tyranids to new Necrons and warmachines while the Tyranids won't be able to do the same with their dead and destroyed Necrons.
>>
>>50261861
If everything succumbs to orks why arent orks included in your ending? They are the most numerous race with dominance over the warp whenever gork and mork care enough to exert it.

What do you base this on?
>>
>>50265345
Canoptek Scarabs, you pleb.

>>50265378
Dead worlds refer to worlds with zero biomass which the Tyranids ignored. For example, the tomb world in Shield of Baal or Solemance.

The Tyranids ignored the Shield of Baal tomb until ships loads of prisoners decided to crash land on the barren tomb world and die on it. Solemance was also barren. The Tyranids choose to ignore it and its Necrons and move on.

Imhotek getting his ass beaten by Orks repeatedly, mainly.
>>
>>50265425
This is the correct answer.

Except cannon clearly shows nids cant take orks reliably, Ghazzy is literaly farming Octarius for harder ork troops now.

As orks can scale up the same as the nids do and outscale the necron+ dont sweat Gauss weapons.

Also orks dont need a win to recycle biomass / replenish numbers like the nids do.

Orks are the overall winners of 40k if things continue as they are.

Orks have tried to loot Necron tech in the past and all they got was their planet exploded.

>>50265481
Necrons have trouble with orks numbers and the chaos their style of war brings.

They do not as a general rule. Only Imotekh is said to be lacking against Orks of all the Necrons we know.

They proved ineffective.

>>50265505
Naw there are lots of ork stories of them taking necrons on effectively.

That boss who has the steel skull from a lord for instance.

Sorry about hurting your necron fan wark but in cannon orks win, they can take any other race in an all out war and Gork and Mork are the dominate force in the warp. They get stronger through losses but unlike the nids its an automated process that takes no win condition / time to feed on biomass.

The orks beat the necron handily and have throughout cannon.

Imotekh first war was against an Ork Waagh!. He crushed them.

Also the fluff says because Imotekh hates fighting Orks, he assigned that duty to Zahndrekh. Zahndrekh excels at fighting Orks.

I doubt that.
But it's not a question of whether Orks can some times win against Necrons, but whether Orks are an effective counter.

Orks have displayed no such skill.

>they can take any other race in an all out war

The Beast failed against the Imperium even.

>Gork and Mork are the dominate force in the warp.

Actually the Chaos Gods are said to be the most powerful in the warp.

>The orks beat the necron handily and have throughout cannon.

Not true, Orks are minor players to the Necrons in the war in heaven.

I don't think so. Try to name some.

>>50265595

You mean the guy without any notable wars vs the orks, all it says is he sees them as well as others as still combatants in the wars of succession.

By completely crushing the necrons best general to the point he actively avoids them.

There is so much here you got wrong its staggering to the mind, how have you got headcannon so mixed up with cannon is beyond me.
>>
>>50265645
>By completely crushing the necrons best general to the point he actively avoids them.

They can only do that due to Imotekhs unique way of thinking.
The other Necrons generals do not have his disadvantage in this regard.

>There is so much here you got wrong

Like what?
The Beast's WAAAGH got defeated by a weakened Imperium, see the Beast Arises series.
The Chaos Gods are the most powerful beings in the warp, see the rulebook.
Orks were minor players in the War in Heaven, see the Necron Codex which talks extensively about the Eldar and the Old Ones but doesn't even bother to mention the Krork.
>>
>>50265645
Imotekh defeated an Ork Waaagh!, though.

And other Necron Lords dont have his problem.


>>50265631
Actually, he has notable wars against the orks in the fluff. There is a WD fluff article that features him crushing an Ork invasion.

I can link post it if you want if you admit you wrong and say sorry.
>>
>>50265605
Problem is the necrons are like the cool kid who actively avoids doing anything so people will think hes more proficient in general than he really is.

Naw because youre ignoring the Waaghs after he lost to.

Gork and Mork are stated in cannon to be the top dogs in the warp in terms of power.

Youre just homing in on the one or two things you have to go off of while ignoring or getting wrong everything that contradicts you.

There are more fluff stories of orks beating the hell out of necrons? If i link them will you say youre sorry?
>>
>>50265706

Maybe you should read the Necron Codex or Shield of Baal. The Necrons have some impressive feats.

>>50265737
>Naw because youre ignoring the Waaghs after he lost to.

Imotkh has a problem with Orks, but other Necron generals do not.

Gutrak Deathhead, The war in heaven (Which clearly states the necron went into hiding to keep away from the ass beating the Eldar and Orks were looking to bring cry all you want but the Necron were beaten at their best) and hell lets take all the whoopings

/tg/ knows you got tons of fluff wrong, thats all that matters.

There is a finite number of Necrons in the galaxy. The number of Orks that will live, fight, and die is infinite. The necrons are some supremely powerful empire without failings from degradation to the flayer curse theyre just as fucked as every other faction aside from Chaos, Nids, and Orks.

At least youll probably get to compete with Eldar for being the last race wiped out.


Orks win but by all means keep picking and choosing and ignoring cannon to pretend youre silly necron dynasties have a chance when they cant even stop thier own degradation.

The necrons could never, ever truly beat orks... Orks could eventually truly wipe out necrons thats cannon and mathematical fact.
Also your great ork specialist Immotekh (Which he is said to be in fluff no matter how much you try to pass it off to other lords to save face.) cant even take them on

"Thus does the Stormlord hate Orks above all the lesser races of the galaxy for, no matter how hard he tries, he rarely wins a lasting victory over the rabblesome Greenskins. Yet lasting victories against the Orks there must be, for Imotekh’s goal is nothing less to wipe them from the face of the galaxy. The Stormlord is unshakeable in his belief that only when the galaxy is washed clean with the blood of inferior beings will Necron dominance begin anew."

Now go read some fluff kid.
>>
>>50265823
Page 14 of the 7th ed ork codex you mouth breather. Also the stuff on them in the 4th ed ork codex.

Youll of course use the wording to pretend that G&M shrugging off the blows of other gods and laughing doesnt mean anything.

If youre going to get into a fluff debate you should at least know the codex fluff there is no reason for you to not know at least basic codex fluff, thats why people in the thread arent taking you seriously.
>>
>>50266085
>The war in heaven (Which clearly states the necron went into hiding to keep away from the ass beating the Eldar and Orks were looking to bring

Just the Eldar. The Orks were not mentioned.

>There is a finite number of Necrons in the galaxy. The number of Orks that will live, fight, and die is infinite.

Theoretically infinite. But they can be exterminated, especially by a race as advanced as Necrons.

>Also your great ork specialist Immotekh (Which he is said to be in fluff no matter how much you try to pass it off to other lords to save face.)

Imotekh is not said to be an Ork specialist, quite the opposite. Imotekh is said to be bad at fighting Orks.
The other Necron general are not said to be.

>>50266156
>Youll of course use the wording to pretend that G&M shrugging off the blows of other gods and laughing doesnt mean anything.

It's true, it doesn't mean anything in this context. Chaos Gods are blanket stated to be the most powerful, while the fluff you pointed at does not even mention the Chaos Gods specifically.
>>
>>50266085
>Gutrak Deathhead

That's one.

And he beat up the vanguard of an emerging necron force before he left the planet. The Necrons on the planet are still in the process of awakening.

>The war in heaven (Which clearly states the necron went into hiding to keep away from the ass beating the Eldar and Orks were looking to bring cry all you want but the Necron were beaten at their best)

Eldar won the war. The Ork weren't mentioned.

So if I am generous that leaves you with one. I can name 3 Necron defeating the Otks off the top of my heead. Battle Ankhbyr, Imotekh wiping out a Ork waaagh!, and Atun purging Orks from their dynasty.

You lost this one.

>There is a finite number of Necrons in the galaxy.

Actually, that's to the Cenoptek Scarabs, there are infinite number of Necron warmachines and constructs. Heck, even false Necrons.

>flayer curse

The Flayed Curse can be contained and quarantined. The Damnos dynasty dudes invented software that protects them from it. They even had the Flayer Lord sleep in their vaults since his threat wasn't that bad.

>At least youll probably get to compete with Eldar for being the last race wiped out.

Necrons are resurging.

>Orks win but by all means keep picking and choosing and ignoring cannon to pretend youre silly necron dynasties have a chance when they cant even stop thier own degradation.

Orks always lose though. Even when all their race united under the Beast, they lost.

>he necrons could never, ever truly beat orks.

The Necrons won the War in Heaven, by destroying the Old Ones. Orks, Eldar, and whatever were powerless to stop them. Heck, the Necrons even enslaved Orks.

>Also your great ork specialist Immotekh (Which he is said to be in fluff no matter how much you try to pass it off to other lords to save face.) cant even take them on

Except he took them on and defeated a Waagh! and expanded his empire. Now he had lords to do it for him. Lord who are experts at killing off the Orks.

Chaos won't lose to nids because they can fuck off to other galaxies just like nids are doing right?
>>
>>50266156
>says basic fluff, can't even read.

It doesn't say they are the strongest in the Warp. A massive fail on your part.

And by the way, there are plenty of gods in the warp other than the Chaos Gods. Like Antwyr, Malice, Ans'l, Mo'rcck and Phraz-Etar.

Cemoptek =/= true necrons so wrong again.

The undying were all wiped out by the ulra smurfs, wrong again.

>The Necrons won the War in Heaven, by destroying the Old Ones. Orks, Eldar, and whatever were powerless to stop them. Heck, the Necrons even enslaved Orks.

Clearly stated they went into hiding to survive the Eldar / Orks and the last reminates of the old ones.

Wrong again.


Youre literally wrong more than youre right, no wonder no anons bother to reply to youre bullshit.

All you have is seumantics to argue at best, the rest of the time youre getting fluff completely wrong and relying on placing the burden of proff on anons who cant be bothered to because youre so off on the fluff you think you know its not worth the effort.
>>
>>50267566
>Wrong

Proof it.

>Wrong

Proofs it.

>Cemoptek =/= true necrons so wrong again.

Irrelevant. You said Necron are not infinite. They are. They can produce as much Cenoptek warmachines and false Necrons as they want. They will never run out of forces.

The Orks spores require somewhat fertile soil to spawn Orks. Necrons can create new Necron forms and cenopteks literally out of new air. So in a battle of numbers and attrition, the Necrons will win eventually.

>The undying were all wiped out by the ulra smurfs, wrong again.

Only the Lord Undying and the Flayer Lord are confirmed dead.

The Cryptek and other Lords are unaccounted for. They might have used the Quantum network or Dolmen to escaped.

>Clearly stated they went into hiding to survive the Eldar

It only says Eldar.

I want you to post where they driven away and were hiding from Orks. I dare you.

And cease your trolling. You are embarrassing yourself. When you troll you should have some ammunition.
>>
>>50267556
Yes it does find one instance of another warp entity or god even threatening Gork and Mork?

Now go look up the incidences of things in the warp including other gods staying clear of or getting beat up by Gork and Mork.

Also stated in cannon that a gods power comes from worshippers, whos outnumbering Gork and Mork for worshippers again?

They are clearly the single most powerful entities in the warp.

Daemonic hordes of Chaos attacking Gork and Mork from the Ork dex.

Zero.

Bad grammar is a giveway by the way.

Bullshit. It doesn't say that.

And If you want to play the numbers game, then the fluff says that Khorne feeds on Ork emotions too.

No, according to the fluff which says that the Chaos Gods are the mightiest beings in the Warp.

You actually need proof the Ultras later wiped out the undying?

You need proof the canopteks arent true necron? Or that the Necron themselves dont have infinite numbers while they degrade in cannon fluff and now have no way of replacing the necron numbers they lose?

Youre fucking hilarious.

Yah you lost hard but hey keep being deluded, this is obviously important to you.

Just because it says they are having fun, it doesn't mean they are not under threat. After all, Gork and Mork are directing their Ghaz to work faster to before the plans of the Chaos Gods come into fruition.

And youd be wrong but at least youre starting to slowly backtrack and enough anons give enough of a shit to start throwing sourced fluff at you.

Also the Craft World eldar dex (You know the guys that know more about the necron than anyone else?) state that many eldar are starting to see / believe the orks have reached critical mass and no cull could stop them.

6th ed eldar codex.

doesn't say Gork and Mork are the strongest.

>3rd ed necron

It says the the Korks were created at the last stages of the War in Heaven to fight off the Enslavers. They weren't meant to fight the Necrons.

And it says that the Enslaver genocide of nearly all life in the galaxy is what drove the Oldcrons to sleep to wait until life pops up again.

You fail, anon.

And still no pages.
>>
>>50268005
>And youd be wrong

Nope, again, not even mentioned.

Nope, my position has remained solid. I never said Krorks didn't exist at the time of the War in Heaven.

No one has thrown my any sourced fluff.

>Also the Craft World eldar dex (You know the guys that know more about the necron than anyone else?)

They know almost nothing about Necrons, the ones who know most are Aliatoc even then they don't know everything.
