Necrons: Immortals

Product Overview

Immortals are the relentless frontline infantry of the Necron legions. Unlike the basic Necron Warriors, Immortals are faster, tougher, and significantly more accurate, wielding advanced weaponry capable of disintegrating even the most heavily armored foes. On the tabletop, they serve as the backbone of your elite forces, capable of holding ground and delivering precise, long-range fire.

Key Specifications

Features and Benefits

• Weapon Versatility: The kit allows you to build your unit equipped with either the Gauss Blaster (for rapid-fire accuracy) or the Tesla Carbine (for devastating, exploding hits against large groups of enemies), allowing you to tailor your list to your opponent.

• Elite Resilience: Clad in advanced necrodermis plating, Immortals are far more durable than standard infantry, making them excellent candidates for holding objectives under heavy fire.

• Classic Aesthetic: These models perfectly capture the terrifying, cold, and calculated nature of the Necron race, with their glowing eyes and stoic, metallic stances.

• Reanimation Potential: Like most Necron units, they benefit from the Reanimation Protocols rule, which can allow them to return to the battlefield even after sustaining grievous damage, frustrating enemy tactical plans.

Assembly and Painting Tips

• Metallic Base: Start with a bright silver spray primer or a base coat of Leadbelcher. This provides the perfect foundation for their metallic chassis.

• Glow Effects: The key to a great-looking Necron is the "energy" glow. Apply a bright color (like a neon green or blue) to the eyes, the weapon coils, and the chest emblem. For a professional look, apply a bright white base coat to these areas first, then use a transparent technical paint or a thin layer of your chosen glow color over the top.

• Washes for Depth: A wash of Nuln Oil over the silver armor will flow into the joints and grooves, instantly making the metal look aged and industrial. Avoid getting the wash on your glow areas, or it will dull the effect.

• Edge Highlighting: Use a lighter silver like Runefang Steel to highlight the sharp edges of the armor plates. This gives the model a crisp, clean finish that stands out on the tabletop.

• Basing: Given their ancient, robotic nature, a cold, desolate base (perhaps using grey sand or technical terrain paints) makes them look like they are advancing across a long-dead tomb world.
