Enmitic Weapons are a new type of [[Necron]] weapons. What these things are, we have no fucking clue as the word Enmitic does not exist in the English language. The closest we could get is that it may be spawned from the word 'enigmatic', which essentially means "mysterious".....[[Derp|which basically tells us nothing about these guns.]] 'Enmity' is also a word, meaning "The quality of being an enemy", something with enmity could be described as 'Enmitic'. [[Herp|This also tells us precisely nothing about these guns.]] From the 9th Ed Necron Codex, Enmitic Weapons creates pulses which when hit causes the victims atoms to be repelled from each other violently. Functionally the same as Necron [[Gauss]] weapons (both are disintegration rays) but more violent. Imagine something akin to the District 9 microwave gun. Still have no idea why its called Enmitic however. They obviously turn friendly and connected atoms into terrible enemies. And two enemy atoms in close proximity gets so mad that they turn the other way in order to avoid each other. Genius GW strikes again

== Enmitic Disintegrator Pistol ==
[[File:Hexamark_Enmitic_Pistol.JPG|200px|right|thumb|Enmitic Disintegrator Pistol]]
The small kid brother of the family.

The Enmitic Disintegrator Pistol(s) are the main weapons of the gunslinger extraordinaire, the [[Hexmark Destroyer]]. The Destroyer [[MOAR DAKKA|holds <u>SIX</u> of these bad boys]], allowing the Destroyer to go guns blazing like something out of an old Western. Nevertheless, as a pistol, its range ain't impressive, although its effective firing range is the same as the much larger Enmitic Annhilator. So pound for pound, it has a faster fire rate than its big bro.

Rules wise, the Enmitic Disintegrator Pistol is an 18" Pistol 1 weapon. Pretty long range for a pistol. It is S6 and AP-1, allowing it to punch straight through MEQs (Trust us, with the buffed Primaris Marines, that is a ''good thing'') whilst dealing 1 damage per shot. Whilst that 1 damage may not sound like a lot, do take note that the Hexmark Destroyer has, and I shall repeat, <u>'''SIX'''</u> of these damned things. <s>Six shots equal bye bye Primaris Marines</s> Sadly you're averaging one dead Marine per turn, two dead Marines on a really good roll, and even then only if your [[exploding dice]] are equally good.

== Enmitic Annihilator ==

The Enmitic Annihilator is a type of Necron weapon used by Skorpekh Lords.

It is the only known ranged weapon of the Skorpekh Lord and is considered as the [[Plasma Cannon]] of the family. Despite this, the sheer UNIT of the Skorpekh Lord makes the weapon appear and function more like [[Powergamer|''a pistol'']]. Despite this, it falls short of the horde beatstick known as the Enmitic Exterminator, so it is treated more as a support weapon than the primary gun.

Crunchwise, despite its size, it's got shortish range at 18", but 2d3, S6, AP-1 Blast shots are a nice starting point to give the lord just enough shooting power to take the edge off whatever he's about to puree with that giant claw of his. This thing deals with horde armies, especially tarpitters, so if you wanna trim the ensuing meat wave into manageable meat chunks, this is the gun for you.

== Enmitic Exterminator ==

Enmitic Exterminator is a type of Necron weapon used by Lokhust Destroyers and are the big proverbial fuckstick of the family. Looking like a giant brick filled with a bundle of glowing PCP pipes. This [[Dakka|six-barrelled FUCK OFF cannon]] is used to completely [[Anal circumference|assrape]] whoever pissed off the local Overlord in the morning.

On the tabletop, the Enmitic Exterminator is your primary anti-infantry weapon for your Lokhust Heavy Destroyer. A 36" Heavy 3D3 weapon. This heavy sone-of-a-gun is a S7, AP-1 ''Blast'' weapon that deals 1 damage per shot. Horde armies are gonna melt and MEQs are going to <s>cry bitter tears as a single blast wipes half the squad from the face of the earth</s> duck for cover as this thing pumps out the damage the Hexmark Destroyer only wishes he could. With the beefed-up Primaris in 9th Ed, you ''NEED'' it.

The <strike>Hexmark Destroyer</strike> '''Glock-topus''' is the proverbial and literal lovechild between a [[Deathmark]], a [[Necron Destroyer|Destroyer]] and a [[Awesome|six-armed Western gunslinger.]] These bad brotherfuckers are armed with six [[Enmitic Disintegrator Pistol|Enmitic Disintegrator Pistols]] to proverbially fuck shit up [[Awesome|whilst looking cool at doing it.]]

Hexmark Destroyers are six-armed Necron Deathmarks who are part of the Destroyer Cult and want nothing more than to kill everything around them. In battle, they burst from their dimensional oubliettes, and the Destroyers' corrupted engrams aid them in targeting and dispatching nearby enemies in a hail of enmitic disintegrator fire.

Seeing as how they are Deathmarks who had fallen to the Destroyer curse, the Hexmark Destroyer takes the Deathmarks’ propensity for surprise attacks to epic levels.

==The Hexmark is not a Plasma-gun Terminator==

You'd think with a design this cool and a model this hyped up by the community, it couldn't be complete trash. And yet.

The Hexmark has a solid frame, pristine 2+ ballistic skill and rerolls on your 1s for good measure. Even in melee he isn't bad with 3+ weapon skill and 4 attacks. Here's the thing: '''his weapon is trash'''. Sadly, our boy is the proof that you cannot in fact give the ultimate gunslinger terrible guns and have him perform.

With him, you get [[Enmitic Weapons|6 pistols which are each S6 AP-1 and 1 lonely damage]]. Since he doesn't have a melee weapon either, his hits are gonna be S5 AP-0 damage 1 as well. His rule of getting an extra shot off if he kills a model is cute, but seldom going to come into play against MEQs. And Necrons just don't have problems dealing with hordes with their basic units.

Hitting things is not the issue with him, it's that his best case damage against low toughness, low save models is relatively alright. But against Primaris? Hell, against the 2 Wound Firstborn? [[Derp|He averages less than two wounds.]] This is for a model which cannot be taken in squads and takes up the extremely valuable elite slot (incredibly crowded in 9th edition). Hopefully he can get improvements in future erratas.

* '''Counter point''', sure he isn't going to earn his points back very well against marines but marines aren't really his target anyway his targets is squishy stuff like guardsmen, dire avengers/guardians and fire warriors. Its fate will very much depend on the ebbs and flows of the meta, and he could become a valuable source of buffs (being a character means he can dispense Command Protocols) and damage in some lists. [You have to select a NOBLE character for your warlord to use Command Protocols, which the Hexmark is not, so he can't]

A little quick math notes that against marines you're looking at about one marine dead per shooting phase. If the marines try to charge him, he's killing another one in overwatch (bs 2+ with rerolls), and surviving the initial fight phase unless they're extra killy. His melee won't do much, but he will then get to shoot again (pistols in melee!). By this point he's up to three-ish marines. Against most line MEQs, this isn't points-efficient... But you're not sending him at 'most MEQs'. You're supporting Flayed Ones or Deathmarks on a flank to kill Devastators (against whom three models is absolutely points-efficient), or drop a Command Squad while contesting an objective, or mowing down some unfortunate Eldar that assumed the backfield was safe. If you look at this guy as a deep-striking meltagun squad, you're likely going to be disappointed. But if you're looking for a sudden distraction carnifex with an actual answer to melee, especially against 1w models? You could do a lot worse for 75 points.

If you really want to lean on the guy, bring friends. Deathmarks, Flayed Ones, Ophidian Destroyers, hell even Monoliths can deep strike, and every single thing there is a bigger and more immediate threat than the Hexmark. Put him and a cheap group of flayed ones near somebody's fragile fire support and watch them squirm.

Just don't compare him to the Kelermorph, who does exactly what the Hexmark does but is way better at it. GW...
