This page describes the various wargear and weapons used by the Necrons in the Warhammer 40,000 universe. The Necrons are an ancient and mysterious intelligent race of undying robotic warriors who resemble human or Eldar skeletons. The Necrons have lain dormant in their stasis-tombs on various Tomb Worlds across the galaxy for millions of years, pre-dating even the rise of the ancient civilisation of the Eldar. The Necrontyr, the organic humanoid precursors of the Necrons, were obsessed with technological advancement to overcome their short lifespans. As a result of this obsession with scientific research, Necron technology is far in advance of anything the modern starfaring races of the galaxy can produce, including the wonders to be found on the Eldar Craftworlds, and may seem impossible

| - This page describes the various wargear and weapons used by the Necrons in the Warhammer 40,000 universe. The Necrons are an ancient and mysterious intelligent race of undying robotic warriors who resemble human or Eldar skeletons. The Necrons have lain dormant in their stasis-tombs on various Tomb Worlds across the galaxy for millions of years, pre-dating even the rise of the ancient civilisation of the Eldar. The Necrontyr, the organic humanoid precursors of the Necrons, were obsessed with technological advancement to overcome their short lifespans. As a result of this obsession with scientific research, Necron technology is far in advance of anything the modern starfaring races of the galaxy can produce, including the wonders to be found on the Eldar Craftworlds, and may seem impossible or supernatural to younger, inferior races. While Necron weapons almost invariably teleport away or self-destruct along with their defeated wielder, it is whispered that this may not be the case with Necron artefacts recovered from the depths of Tomb Worlds. Only the insanely strong or strongly insane would dare plumb the depths of a Necron Tomb in search of mythical treasure.
