How to Necron
This is a guide on the basics of necrons.


Necrodermis, this is the material you'll be using to construct nearly everything, it is acquired by shearing your Canoptek scarab. You get 40x Necrodermis for shearing your Canoptek scarab.


Canoptek scarab, this little guy not only grows Necrodermis (by consuming any organic material) but he can also guard, attack, rescue, and Hall by default. A canoptek scarab can be made at your necron fabrication alter at the cost of 80x Necrodermis and 30x Gauss crystals.

Gauss crystal, this is another very important resource you'll get from farming, Gauss crystals have to be planted in soil that can support plant life so you cannot plant them in stone or sand, there are three tiers of Gauss crystal; small, medium, and large, each requires more time to grow but yields more Gauss crystals.

Gauss cells, this is the food source of necrons and can be crafted at the necron fabrication alter.

Necron variations, there are several different variations of necron and they are necron ranged Warrior, necron heavy Warrior, necron melee Warrior, necron Lord, Canoptek spyder, and necron pariah. All of them have different roles within your tomb City that you can figure out pretty quickly.

That's it for the basics of necrons and I hope you enjoyed it.There's a lot more to the necrons that I want you to discover for yourself, but if you have a burning question then feel free to ask.

Have a nice day.:winter2019happyyul:

...You're a quick study. I hope you'll still be around to do this for Star Gothic when it comes, it's a good concise guide to them and you did the same for Orks in a lore accurate style, fabulous.

Hello. I want to offer an idea or an opportunity in relation to the necrons. Is it possible to make a common standard (template) in relation to each pawn, for example skills and character traits !? It is strange to see a necron with the trait kindness, homosexual, laziness and so on and so forth.

An aegis wall is essentially a waist/chest high wall, it's intentional.

How do you get more necrons beyond your first Overlord and two spiders?
Riot Dawn 9 Mar, 2021 @ 11:44am 
Okay, I found out how to actually make necrons (for others: the Necron Tomb under the "misc" tab)...but how the heck do I use the Capotek Cannery to make pariahs?

I have a slight problem with the necron research bench. it doesnt seem like its being build, nor can i prioritize building it even tho i have enough resources
William Jackal 14 Mar, 2021 @ 8:03pm 
@ShasOKais you should file that as a bug report, for the best results file it in the developers Discord.

They eat gauss cells, all automatically. If you're using the premade Necron start you'll get 60 of those.

Coming here to ask about the Canoptek Cannery as well. Don't seem to be able to put prisoners into it, and recruiting them first isn't possible either, neither with direct command ("invalid race", do I need Terrans?) nor carrying them there (still no option).

Yeah it's specifically Terrans, and you have to recruit them first, I was drinking a LOT back in those days so can't justify it with any logic because I don't see it either.

Is... is there an easy way to fix this? I have gone through 10 pawns trying to find one that would work lol

Sure, learn to mod.

Hey @Neronix17, I made a slight patch for some of the Necron stats, let me know if it's okay. It's just a few things that looked like typos, an odd "comfy" temperature settings and some masses that seemed off, things like that.

I also poked around a bit trying to figure out why Necrons weren't eating or using energy, but no luck so far, my guess is it's some humanoid alien setting. Hopefully it's not in code since I still don't have my build setup on my Mac working. :(

Super excited about your O21 Patreon stuff, big fan. Looking forward to it.
