(Image credit: Ian Stokes) The Necron faction from Warhammer 40K are a civilization of immortal robots who traded away their souls for eternal life, fought a war with the gods, and then went to sleep for millions of years. However, us Necron players haven’t been hitting snooze over the last few years - we’ve been feasting on new models. The faction was the major antagonist of the previous Warhammer 40,000 edition, and that meant we got a massive range refresh at the outset. Between the Indomitus Starter Box (the equivalent of 10th Edition’sWarhammer 40K Leviathanset) and later releases, we had 17 new model kits, with a healthy mix of brand-new sculpts and reimaginings of old units, like the Skorpekh Destroyers and stalwart Necron Warriors respectively. When the dust settled on the last edition, almost the entire Necron codex had been updated to plastic models with only a few special characters still available in resin. Necron players couldn’t have been happier, and we certainly weren’t expecting to get another big release wave so soon. So, imagine our delight when we were graced with three more kits alongside the10th Edition Necron Codex. This latest batch includes Imotekh the Stormlord, Orikan the Diviner, and the Overlord with Translocation Shroud. Are these new models worth picking up, or would they have been better left buried in the Tomb World? Well, as an avid Necron player, I grabbed all three to add to my force, so let’s have a look at what we’ve got here. There’s a storm coming (Image credit: Ian Stokes) Of these three new models, two of them are resculpts of existing kits — Imotekh the Stormlord and Orikan the Diviner. These two are special characters that were first introduced to the Necron line back in 5th Edition, and it’s fair to say that their original models have aged like hot milk over the past 13 years (as is often the case with thebest board games). Mercifully, both of them have been given glorious forms worthy of their stature with these new plastic sets. Quick comparison(Image credit: Games Workshop)While the pose and outfit are almost identical, 2011’s Imotekh is far shorter, beefier, and only has a standard (much too small) base in comparison to the newer version.

On the tabletop, Imotekh is a decent but not essential addition to your force. He’s not bad in a fight, and he’s reasonably tough to kill for his size, but Imotekh is a strategist, not a duelist. If you’re bringing him along, it’s to take advantage of his two abilities: Grand Strategist and Lord of the Storm. Sign up to the GamesRadar+ Newsletter Weekly digests, tales from the communities you love, and more Grand Strategist is a simple but powerful buff — it gives you an extra command point every battle round, letting you use more of your stratagems to turn the tide of the battle. Lord of the Storm is a once per game ability that lets him call down a massive lightning storm, doing mortal wounds to everyone within range. The command phase timing on this ability limits it a bit, as you need to carefully position yourself and then hope your opponent stays in range or doesn’t just kill you, but it’s very powerful if you can pull it off. Overall, he’s good, but not an absolute necessity.

He’s a special character Cryptek who specializes in manipulating the flow of time. He’s also got a hell of a party trick, because when the stars align he transforms into a being of pure energy, reaching a near god-like state for a brief stint. Quick comparison(Image credit: Games Workshop)Want to see how the old version of the model compares? As with Imotekh, OG Orikan is much squatter and smaller than its modern counterpart. The pose is almost exactly the same, though. Quick comparison (Image credit: Games Workshop)Want to see how the old version of the model compares?

(Image credit: Games Workshop) Want to see how the old version of the model compares? As with Imotekh, OG Orikan is much squatter and smaller than its modern counterpart. The pose is almost exactly the same, though. In battle, Orikan’s Master Chronomancer rule grants any unit he joins a 4+ invulnerable save, greatly increasing their durability. Meanwhile, his The Stars Are Right rule lets him absolutely pop off in combat once per game, tripling his attacks and strength as well as letting him deal mortal wounds with every hit. He’s a great unit in the game in theory, but he’s held back because he can only join Warriors or Immortals; Immortals have better leader options and Warriors aren’t amazing at the moment. Still, if you’re bringing a big unit of Warriors, he’s one of the best choices to lead them.

It’s the Necron Overlord with a Translocation Orb. Now, Necron overlords aren’t new, they’ve been the backbone leader of the faction since 5th Edition, yet this overlord comes packing some new wargear that helps him to stand out, both as a model and a unit on the battlefield. To Codex or not to Codex(Image credit: Ian Stokes)If you haven’t grabbed the Necron Codex for 10th Edition yet, you really should. It adds a wealth of new playstyles to the faction, and most of the Detachments listed here feel great to play. You can find out more viamy review.

The energy effect is neat, though in lore terms I think this would have suited a Cryptek model more than an overlord, as they’re the techno wizards known for wielding science so advanced it looks like magic. It’s a minor complaint however, and the model does look fantastic. Overlord with Translocation Shroud |$38 at Games WorkshopThis is the cheapest of the three models on offer, but that doesn’t mean it’s any less cool.

(Image credit: Ian Stokes) None of the new Necron models are essential choices if you’re looking to build up your Necron force, but they’re all stunning sculpts that would make great figureheads for your budding Tomb World. As single character models, they’re not the best value for money when compared to full units. However, that’s always the case with Warhammer sets and, unlike rank and file units, you’ll only need one of each. If you already have an overlord or two, I wouldn’t rush out to grab the Overlord with Translocation Shroud — while it’s a cool model, there’s nothing to stop you just playing your existing Overlord model and saying they’ve got the Translocation Shroud. I’d recommend filling out the rest of your force first and then coming back to this dude if you really like the design. Imotekh and Orikan will come down to preference. While both are beautiful updates on the existing sculpts, they do both have basically the same pose. Neither is exceptional in the game right now, but you shouldn’t buy 40K models for their rules — rules change all the time, but beautiful models are, like the Necrons themselves, eternal.
