This is the current 10th Edition's Necron tactics. 9th Edition Tactics are here.
Why Play Necrons
Pros
- You are one of the easiest armies to paint. Just get some primer, a metal paint, a wash and a glowing green and you're good to go.
Cons
Faction Rules
- Reanimation Protocols: Gone are the tests to resurrect, now you just recover d3 wounds each Command phase. Models with multiple wounds get those wounds back first, only ressing models once every model in the squad has their max wounds.
- This also counts as last edition's Living Metal rule, as this applies to all vehicles as well.
Detachments
Awakened Dynasty
Special Rules
- Command Protocols: Units led by Characters get +1 to hit. Pretty basic.
Stratagems
- Protocol of the Hungry Void (1 CP): One unit gets +1 to Strength when they fight. If a character is leading this unit, they also improve the AP of their weapons by 1.

Battleline
- Immortals:
- Necron Warriors: Despite being an army that historically never needed to worry about morale, the Leadership of your most basic goons is now a rather mid 7+. Fortunately, their trademark aptitude for refusing to die remains in place as their Reanimation Protocols lets you raise d6 models (or d3+3 if you're on an objective) each Command Phase.
- Both the Gauss Flayer and Gauss Reaper gained the Lethal Hits rule. The Flayers get the benefit of both range and Rapid Fire 1 so it can keep up in firepower against the Reaper. However, the Reaper lost the Assault type so now you can't shoot them after advancing and both guns took a hit to AP, making the Gauss Flayer as effective as a bolter at S4 AP-.
Infantry
- Lychguard:
- Deathmarks
- Flayed Ones
- Cryptothralls
- Skorpekh Destroyers:
- Ophydian Destroyers:
- Triarch Praetorians:
Beast
- Canoptek Wraiths:
Mounted
- Tomb Blades
Swarm
- Canoptek Scarab Swarms
Monsters
Vehicles
- Conoptek Spyders
- Monolith: Toughness 14 makes them way tougher than before, capable of even shrugging off lascannons. As an improvement, the monolith can now deploy units from reserves or teleport units on the field to anywhere within 6" of it without needing to sit still, making it a much more usable deployment port. Its Death Ray took a major buff by getting S12 AP-4 D1+d6 with Sustained Hits d3. Its Portal of Exile also got a mixed change, getting a fixed 6 attacks but at AP-2.
- The option between Particle Whips and Gauss Flux Arcs is a mix between reliability and weight of fire. The Flux Arcs are fixed at A3 S6 AP-1 with Lethal Hits for more effective critical hits and Rapid Fire 3 making it fire more up close. The Particle Whips throw a staggering A3d6 Blast with S8 AP-1 D2 and Devastating Wounds.
- The damage track is a bit more significant to the monolith than it would to others. Once it reaches 7 wounds, not only does it take -1 to hit with all of its guns, but it also has its OC reduced from 8 to 4.
- Annihilation Barge:
- Doomsday Ark:
Walker
- Canoptek Reanimator:
- Triarch Stalker:
