I remember seeing in one codex or another a transcription of an Eldar stone tablet. Details regarding different runes where analyzed by some Inquisitor or another. Do any of you remeber what I'm talking about and can point me to the correct codex? I've browsed through my collection but I must've missed it.

Thanks for any help

Could be the translation of an eldar warning of the necron menace. Codex Necrons page 5.

3rd edition codex idk what page but its the blue codex.

Thanks for the tip but that's not the one. The one I'm thinking about is both a picture and some text.

Tx, Laughing god. 3rd ed codex was the one, no wonder I couldn't find it. I only looked through the current ones.

No problemo

The Necron Codex had a translation about the C'Tan.

The cryptic clues about "The Outsider" has made someone I know think that The Outsider is the Hive Mind.

"That which lies outside is drawn to the harvest" or words to that effect.

Nothing personal but I HATE this interpritation of that quote. This is just a referance to the outsider joining the red harvest with the other C'tan. Get it "lies outside"-"the outsider"

How can a C'tan even be cotrolling the nids? Tyranids whole synaps network operate inside the warp, something the C'tan dont understand and abor.Also the C'tan have always bodies and servant made of metal or energy sometimes both...how is there any similarty to a race of biological organisms to the C'tan and thier plots. None.

In fact the tyranids avoid the tomb world for 2 reasons:

1- the warp doesnt work around Necron constructs and units. No Warp, no Tyranid hive mind.

2- Tyranids feed off of biomatter. How does a Hive fleet benefit from a fight with necrons? The necrons live on barren rocks and have no biological matter themselves, so the tyranids avoid them.

These are the reasons not because some outlandish assumption that they hivemind is the outsider with no evidence or fluff to back it up. whoo sorry that on just grinds my gears every time.
