ANNIHILATION AND CATACOMB COMMAND BARGES The Annihilation Barge - the Anti infantry vehicle of the Necrons, armed with Tesla Weaponry The Catacomb Command Barge vehicle of the Overlords of the Necron Armies.
Humble servant, a noble listener here: Have you ever thought about submitting something to Black Library? No idea what that process is, but whatever boxes Black Library looks for it’s authors to check, I feel like you hit them.
Also, I'm fairly certain that Tesla was an alien, but not a Necron, and that Tesla devices and gauss cannons do not project green lightning that disentagrate anything in their line-of-fire! Jus super sayin', tho . . . .
Yet another entry from the "Get off my lawn" faction. I love the Necrons. Their look is awesome, their story is tragic and their technology is the most advanced the galaxy has ever seen. Necron Tomb Worlds are the only planets that the Hive Fleets go out of their way to avoid. May the Emperor help us if the Tyranids figure out how to grow a Necrodermis carapace.
The opening lines are a poignant reminder of the tragedy of the Necrons. They cannot feel the wind caress thier face, the gentle touch of a slow snowfall, the warm embrace of their loved ones, and they cannot feel their own voices. The one thing that makes every being unique is their voice and the necrons cannot feel the rumbling of their own voices from deep within thier chest. It is but a memory that each one is haunted by. Just like what Baldermort said in a previous video about the necrons, "The tragedy of it is like nothing I have ever seen before."
You are one of the few humans whose voice does our people and our Silent King honour in telling our history. You shall be one of the few, who, after the end times, we are willing to honour, till the end. Your public recordings are well received and shall be shared for all to hear.

Not going to lie, I miss the Terminator days. I've been reading re-reading my mix of second and third edition codexes since I was 7, so they will always have a special place in my heart. At least the Eldar are still the same ;)

@@brokedude9999 that is somewhat true but I feel like I'm decently versed in 40K thanks to baldy and Leutin09 and Im not really into rewatching or in this case re-listening to lore I've heard about already. I do look forward to w.e. lore comes next.
I feel you, have been at home and watched from start to this video in under a week, jumped a couple here and there but will revisit them later. Soo good to listen to while painting. 10 Warriors and 3 Skorpekh ready to Purge The Vermin of this galaxy :D

What, as always, a rarefied treat for my midweek imagination. Thank you for your heraldry and thematic work as always Balders. Our ears are but your servants indeed.
I love the concept of a dualistic personality causing issues for the elite ranks of Necrons. Weirdly it serves to humanise them slightly. Thank you, Mr Mort for yet another excellent video!

I'm a new Warhammer 40k fan and it's thanks to lore channels like yours that I'm able to dive down into this rabbit hole. Thank you for making it easier for noobs like me to learn about and enjoy the grim darkness of the universe
After years I finally got my very first army! I got the necrons and I have been trying to decide if I should get a command barge. Brother you have convinced me just how regal they are
I clicked to learn about a unit... Was carried off to be intralled by some amazing storytelling and passion. Dear baldermort what is the specific track you use for your necron vids as I want to have it to play while leveling my nercon Lord in retribution 😁🤘
Gotta say, I was completely unfamiliar with the units before this video, and I'm in love now. The image it conjured reminds me of Skeletor's flotilla from the Masters of the Universe movie all those years ago... and now the Necron sound like Frank Langella. And Baldermort.
Poor Necrons. They never had a chance to not be evil. The Ctan saw to that. Maybe they could have had a chance if the Old Ones has bothered to chase the first Ctan away from their homeworld’s star, maybe they could have had a chance. I wonder if any of them ever consider attempting to return to a biological existence.
It’s not humans bodies per say, they are collecting samples from around the galaxy to make much more advanced immortal biological bodies and in that case human bodies fall far short.
@@lordesquire8862 if the necrons could be adversely affected by the passage of time even with stasis technology it seems unlikely a necrontyr would have made it but I dont know, would be cool though
An ordinary lore video that is over half introduction is agony. A Baldermort video that is over half introduction is a delight. You are a treasure in our community, sir.
My youngest plays a Necron army. It has been difficult, but have finally got him above 1200pts. His main weakness lies in his lack of "heavies". He has two of the above mentioned vehicles which do cause concern IF you're a Smurf. My guys just stay out of range. Necrons are always a fun fight.
Necrons are post physical beings. They’re just consciousness and not reliant on a container to work, just to interact with the physical universe. Driven insane by their physical memories and the degradation of ages passing. Truly a fate worse than death. The Deathless Necrons
The Necrons are so fucking cool, but I wish they weren't ever an organic species. When I first saw them in the setting, knowing nothing of the lore I just assumed they were robots. Men of Iron army when?
But that makes them even more interesting in my opinion instead of just being robots they were once a normal race but it was taken from them by the c tan
@@hentaihaven8552 yip the irony of the fact if it wasn’t for the feeding deceiver then the crons sun would have been normal and so wouldn’t have needed to go to war with the old ones to then fall back and make their devils bargain.
Yes; the Rashan still flitter between the stars but they also glide amongst the younger races continuing to guide, teach an some times even protecting. Only the most enlightened see, an even then only when the Rashan choose to reveal.
Detention is temporary, the Necron Empire is Eternal! Note: I am in no way responsible if you get detention, don’t take life advice from random memelords on the internet...
Great vid per usual! Have you considered going over the Months of Shame? There's very literal coverage for it, and with the Saga of Space Wolves done itd be a perfect Segway
I remember one time, before they changed how Quantum Shielding works, I had a Chaos Knight locked into melee with an Annihilation Barge. Thinking I was being clever, instead doing the smart thing and stomping the stupid thing to death, I instead opted to use the Thunderstrike Gauntlet, thinking I'd get an easy insta-kill and get to do the hilarious thing and huck the barge at my opponent's warlord. Imagine my utter shock at the sudden realization that that was the dumbest thing I could have done in that moment because the Barge absolutely negated that attack and proceeded to buy enough time for the rest of my opponent's army to turn the tables on my Knight.
Now tht the silent king is back , the imperium are gonna have to start pushing back against the mindless automatons . They scare me especially ones with the Flayer virus 🦠 crazy ! Great video my man loves this one ! Stay safe out their bro !
