==Necron Variations== The Necrons only have one kind of Flamer, [[Rape|but one is all they fucking need]]. ===Gauntlet of Fire=== [[File:Necron_Gauntlet_of_Fire.PNG|200px|right|thumb|Gauntlet of Fire]] A Gauntlet of Fire is a Necron weapon that takes the form of an armored glove and vambrace, that is to say a gauntlet, that crackles and flows with viridian flame. The Gauntlet’s mechanisms are controlled by a series of sub-mechadermal filaments, giving the wielder a level of control over the Gauntlet-Flamer as fine as that over his own hand. A Gauntlet of Fire is capable of firing a [[Awesome|great column of green flame,]] with similar effects compared to an Imperial Flamer. It can also be used in close combat in the form fiery fist that is more likely to hit and harm the foe, as well as set them alight for a time. Gauntlets of Fire are weapons found exclusively as part of the armouries of Necron royals which have a "Lord" in their names such as Necron Overlords, Necron Lords, and Necron Destroyer Lords. Since it only fires in a Flamer-ish template, do not expect your Lord to be shooting fireballs and the like. He is only going to spill out fire like a normal Flamer. Since it is kind of one-of-a-kind in terms of appearance – without a blatantly obvious barrel to speak of like the Flamestorm Gauntlet – this Gauntlet does raise a question on where the flame part of the Flamer actually comes from. If you look closely at the palm, there is a small nozzle which presumably projects out the fire in question. The spherical crest-thingy on the back of the hand is likely the mindbogglingly advanced fuel source which may last until the end of time before it needs to be swapped. As far as the tabletop's concerned, it is a Flamer that also allows its user to reroll to hit and to wound in melee. So, why don't you remember it? Because any decent melee-fighting Necron is not going to leave his Warscythe at home, duh. <s>You may see some more in 7th now that they can bring BOTH</s>. As of 8th Edition's ''Index Xenos 1'', nobody else can take one except our Imotekh here. <center> {|class="wikitable mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" style="background: white;" |+ class="nowrap" style="white-space: nowrap"|'''Profile''' |- | {|align=center border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=10 |- | {|class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed wikitable" style="background: white;" |+style="white-space: nowrap;"| Gallery |- |<gallery class="center"> NecronGauntletFireFront.jpg|<center>Back View</center> NecronGauntletFireBack.jpg|<center>Side View</center> NecronFireGauntletTop.jpg|<center>Front View</center> NecronGauntletFirePict.jpg|<center>Pict Capture</center> </gallery> |} | {|class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed wikitable" style="background: white;" |+style="white-space: nowrap;" | Stats |- | {{40k-Ranged-Weapon-Profile-7-8|r7=Template|s7=4|ap7=5|type7=Assault 1|r8=8"|s8=4|type8=Assault D6|abil8=Automatically hits target.}} |} |} |} </center> ===''Gauntlet of the Conflagrator''=== [[File:GauntletOfTheConflagratorPlaceholder.PNG|200px|right|thumb|''Gauntlet of the Conflagrator'' (''Placeholder'')]] Fortunately for the Necrons of this edition who don't get to wear a Gauntlet of Fire anymore, there is still one another Gauntlet that shoots out fire. Unfortunately, the fire in question is only worth a single shot for the rest of your Necron army's deployment. Crafted by the Cryptek with the eponymous title, Harri’apt the Conflagrator, this gauntlet uses interdimensional energy-exchangers to open a microscopic conduit to the raging heart of a star. The superheated plasmic flame that erupts through this hole is forced down a cone of hyperdense gravitons that spew the energy forth in a blazing split-second cloud of unstoppable fury. The ''Gauntlet of the Conflagrator'' here probably has a significant levels of insulation. Even if it's just for a split-second, this is still many millions worth in Kelvin we're dealing with here at the very least. For comparison, our bodies (''assuming that the reader is human'') are merely 300-ish Kelvin, and lava is at only about 1500-ish Kelvin. This is just the first part, the next thing you want to do with a portal that spews out extremely hot stuff is making sure it's spewing out at the correct direction. This is where fairly potent gravity waves come in to dictate where exactly that hot stuff that managed to make it through the portal has to go. Opening a portal as well as maintaining super gravity for a moment? Yeah, that sounds like something that will empty a super advanced battery in that same moment. The ''Gauntlet of the Conflagrator'' is a testament to the fact that the Necrons have long figured out '''''the way''''' to use portal guns; imagine mobility gels, but instead of moving you, they melt you through and through. <center> {|class="wikitable mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" style="background: white;" |+ class="nowrap" style="white-space: nowrap"|'''Profile''' |- | {|align=center border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=10 |- | {|class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed wikitable" style="background: white;" |+style="white-space: nowrap;" | Stats |- | {{40k-Ranged-Weapon-Profile-7-8|r7=Template|s7=7|ap7=2|type7=Assault 1, One Use Only|r8=8"|type8=Pistol 1|abil8=This weapon can only be fired once per battle.
