Necron Destroyer

This page is needs images. Help plz.

Necron Destroyers are Immortals who are a little crazy -- more so than usual, anyway. They hate all lifeforms (they have the special rule of "Preferred Enemy: Everything!" -- yes, the rule entry does have an exclamation point, which is awesome.), which is not unusual in itself, but they are also willing to modify their own bodies to make themselves more efficient killing machines. This tends to involve replacing one arm with a massive gauss cannon and replacing their legs with a big hoverboard. Back in Third Edition, Destroyers (and Heavy Destroyers) were jetbikes, but the Fifth Edition Codex split that aspect of their character into the new Tomb Blade unit, and the Destroyers became Jump Infantry.

Heavy Destroyer

Heavy Destroyers used to be a Heavy Support choice for Necron armies, despite having exactly the same stats as regular (Fast Attack) Destroyers except for a more powerful gun. In a stunning display of common sense, Games Workshop realized that splitting them up was silly, and in the Fifth Edition Codex, all Destroyers are under one Fast Attack choice: up to three Destroyers in a squad can become Heavy Destroyers, upgrading their gauss cannons to heavy gauss cannons to have fun hunting tanks.
