title: Codex: Necrons (Warhammer 40,000)
author: Andy Chambers
description: Welcome, mortal, to the pages of this most forbidden tome, a blasphemous text that will guide you down the path of collecting, painting and gaming with the Necrons int he Warhammer 40,000 game. <br /><br /> The backbone of the Necron army is comprised of metallic, skeletal warriors that never truly die. Even their most basic weaponry can strip a man to his constituent atoms in a second. those with an inkling of the threat posed by the aeons-old Necrons fear them above all, and rightly so, for the true terror of the Necrons lies with their divine masters, whose ultimate goal is to enslave Humanity and gorge themselves on the essence of untold billions.
