Sweet Jesus, Nurgle and Slaanesh in the same box!?
No, just Nurgle and Slaanesh, Jesus will be sold seperately in a blister.
Finland... the country next to Sweden? No! That's Norway! Finland is to the east! No! That's Russia!

I've been dreaming of a necron cultist army for years.
I was kinda hoping we'll be seeing some skitarii in the new codex but oh well.
Why would the cultists take muties though? They are necron cultists not chaos. They should have cyborgs and stuff.
Well... I based this on the book called ''Dead men Walking'' (with cool additions). in the book, mutant and civilian alike are fighting for the necrons.
It's actually a great book, if you are a necron or DKOK fan, you definetly should read it.
Sweet Jesus, Nurgle and Slaanesh in the same box!?
No, just Nurgle and Slaanesh, Jesus will be sold seperately in a blister.
-necron warriors as an Elites choice
-looted Guard tanks that have reduced armour (since they are salvaged) but stronger weapons (with necron technology)
-technicals (civilian utes that have a machine gun stuck to them) as either transports or fast attack units
-Adeptus Arbites that serve the cult. Arbites are imperial police and are like swat
-an armoured Arbite APC as a transort (I read somewhere they use rhinos to get around but I may be wrong) or somesuch
-suicide bomb trucks
-terrorists that self-detonate
-mercenaries that are highly customizable and versatile
-improvised artillery. Think two guys wheeling around a wooden wagon-bed that had a rack of fireworks
attached. the fireworks could be replaced with things like antique cannons, ancient and weaker aurocannons, even Gauss cannons with an attached power source.
-instead of mutants (which are just unfluffy no matter how a book slices it) have a large mob of rioters. they would be misled by the cult and not truly serve the necron; they are just there to "overthrow the unjust imperial government) they could have stones and homemade grenades with Gets Hot as ranged weapons. they are pretty angry thigh, so they will rarely flee.
Finland... the country next to Sweden? No! That's Norway! Finland is to the east! No! That's Russia!
I really don't see why Necron warriors would actually serve the cultists, or even help them.
I mean the necrons are neutral about people who serve them, and will attack them if they ''feel'' like it (see what I did there?).
The scarabs also would harm the cultists, but I guess they are led straight to the enemy, so they don't really get the chance.
the Adeptus Arbites uses Half-Trucks and I'm guessing Rhino tanks if the Planetary Governor can afford enough of them. I could tweak the Veterans into being the Arbites or Proctors
The Technicals could also be a good idea if you for example arm them with lascarbines (range 18'' str 3 AP - Assault 2)
The exploding terrorist idea is just racist... besides, I already included a demolition team.
I like the artillery idea
With the mutants, I meant the people who live in the underhives which have changed by the effects of the Tomb Worlds radiation
Sweet Jesus, Nurgle and Slaanesh in the same box!?
No, just Nurgle and Slaanesh, Jesus will be sold seperately in a blister.
well, under new fluff Lords have personalities and stuff, so a lord who loves being worshipped could send some troops to help his human vassals and protect them. they cannot worship him in death, can they?
maybe the demolitionists could be equipped with Bomb Harnesses or somesuch in case they get in close combat or what-not.
tomb worlds wouldnt really have radiation, and radiation doesnt actually mutate you like that. you would just get a bunch of people with genetic disorders who cannot reproduce....
maybe you should rename them something because mutants are generally associated with chaos and warp-mutation.
Also, something possible is they aqquired some necron tech somehow. Likely expensive or hard to get you could probably give characters access to gauss flayers or something as this isn't unheard of.
Also you could do an elites unit with lots of cybernetics, willingly taken to bring themselves closer to their 'gods', and possibly a character thats entirely mechanical bar his brain.
A heavy support unit of these cyborgs would work out nicely too.

Actual Necron Tech for Characters / HQs but I see such things being hard to come by for the cultists making each piece precious and rare not to be wasted on the rank and file.
But a lot of imperial cybernetics across the board would fit and be a lot easier for them to obtain - doing what they can with what they've got.
Also bizzare cross techs, like modified Lasgun that try to emulate Gauss weapons. Simply give them Gets Hot or something similar, maybe with rending? I mean.. Str3 AP- Rending lasguns with gets hot that's so scary xD
And using modified Chimeras and the sort for transports makes sense... be it simple weapon switchs or something like you can take an upgrade to make it a skimmer
Automatically Appended Next Post: i just had anohter idea after reading Honour Guard!
what if some of the Cultists were herdsmen or farmers before fighting for the cult? what would they do with their herds of alien cows?
they would weaponise them of course!
imagine a Fast Attack choice that is a number of different herd animals that are driven towards the enemy to provide cover, act as roadblocks, and cause chaos.
different herd animals i have personally heard of are Grox (horse-sized lizards that are naturally aggressive but lobotomized by the imperials.) and Chelons (big crabs without pincers. males can be as big as a tank and they wll fight if threatened)
the herders would be ordinary cultists that have to be bought one for every (insert arbitrary number here) animals. maybe they could ride on motorcylces or horses to better drive the animals forward. the animals could have special movement as well, possibly going berserk and attacking the herders or potentially charging at allies.

Metal Skeleton: Some cultists choose to undergo the horrificly painful procedure to fuse metal and bone, to move a step closer to their Necron idols. In game terms this grants +1 Toughness and +1 Wound.
Necron Flesh: Those who show true devotion to the cause will have themselves flayed and their skin replaced with cold hard steel. Now lacking nerves and boasting metal flesh they stride into battle with the same determination as their gods. Necron Flesh grants the Feel No Pain special rule.
Inspiring Commander: All Cult units within 12" gain the Stubborn special rule.
