Two bodyguards meet on the battlefield! The Ynnari travel to the Necron planet, thinking that there might be a fifth sword there. The planet belongs to the Sautekh dynasty and Imotekh orders Zahndrekh to destroy the intruders.


Round 1. Visarch and Obyron's main goal is to protect their masters, Yvraine and Zahndrekh, from the other side. Who can handle it better?


Round 2. 1x1 duel, a random encounter on the battlefield during the battle between the Eldar and the Necrons.

Given the stated goal, the visarch.

Not because he's better, but because Yvraine isn't pants-on-head insane like Zandrekh and the Eldar are very good at avoiding a fight if they don't actually need to fight one, which they don't to retrieve a possibly present cronesword.

In a straight up fight for whatever reason, probably the necron.

I think Vizarch has a harder job due to Necrons having Deathmarks

On the other hand, when was the last time a Deathmark was shown successfully killing anybody of importance? When one popped off Calgar in a dream..? (Veil of Darkness) They're almost comically inept.

It's debatable if he's legit insane

Zandrekh isn't nuts, he pretends to be nuts because he thinks it's funny.
