====Unique Characters==== *'''[[Anrakyr the Traveller]]''': Overlord with S6 and an extra wound and a single shot with his Tachyon Arrow at range 120" S10 AP -5 and D D6. He can boss around models from any Dynasty and even Triarch Praetorians with his MWBD ability and he can copy one of the weapons of an enemy vehicle within 12" on a 4+. When he does he fires it using the vehicle's BS but due to poor wording, the shot counts as originating from Anrakyr's model. Recommended in all Apocalypse styled battles if you aren't afraid of being [[That guy]]. Lastly, Anrakyr gives all nearby {{W40kKeyword|NECRON}} {{W40kKeyword|INFANTRY}} units an additional attack which makes our regular infantry a lot scarier. He's basically a must-have in lists that feature multiple Lychguard and/or Triarch Praetorian units, but even if you're just buffing Warriors and Immortals he's worth it if he can buff 30+ models and a couple of other characters. If he's your Warlord he has the Implacable Conquerer trait, which is great if he's buffing a bunch of melee units, but not the best option if you're just using him to make your Troops a tiny bit scarier in melee. *'''[[Illuminor Szeras]]''': Well, our spidey cryptek has received an upgrade in the last PA, now he's bigger, tougher and meaner, with a D6 damage assault D3 ranged weapon that deals 2 damage in close combat. All these upgrades are nice and all that but he finds himself in a strange position on the battlefield; with his augmentation ability and buff to RPs, he wants to stay near some warriors and immortals while blasting off models in the distance, tho with only a range of 18" for the weapon, 9" for the psyker debuff (that isn't even that good to begin with) and a profile more geared towards close combat, he also really wants to stay close and personal with the enemy (something difficult since he doesn't have any invulnerable save and a T6 W7 isn't that durable). All and all, a great model to look at but not so much to play with. It would have been better with a 4++, the ability to buff something other than warriors and immortals and maybe some way to mitigate the randomness of his main ability (something other like Cawl have).
