'''Immortals''' are the [[Necron]]s' shock troops, deployed where regular [[Necron Warrior]]s are insufficient.  They used to be the soldiers of the Necrontyr Empire, and generally consented to the bio-transference process -- after all, an immortal living-metal body is a pretty big step up from a short-lived [[cancer]]-riddled sack of meat.  While the soldiers were not nobles, they did have knowledge and experience that was valuable in the coming war with the [[Old Ones]], so they were given bodies with better armor and superior weapons.  They even retain some of their personality, and are capable of some conversation, though it is basically limited to matters of battle and their voices are completely devoid of emotion (Which is very annoying for the more hammy Lords who try to riled them up with inspiring speeches).  They're a bit like the Cybermen from [[Doctor Who]] in some ways (which may not be a coincidence, given how prominent Doctor Who is in British popular culture).

For all that lore, the only difference between Immortals and Warriors on the tabletop is that Immortals are slightly more expensive and get better weapons ([[gauss blaster]]s or [[tesla carbine]]s vs. [[gauss flayer]]s) and a better armor save (3+ vs. 4+).  In the old Codex, Immortals were Elites rather than Troops, and had better Toughness (as both had 3+ armor saves), but that changed with the new Codex.
