it's obious that they do because the codex says when necrons phase out they are repaired and replacement parts are built. what i want to know is what materials do they use and how do they shape and make parts for troops and buildings.

aswell how do they produce power. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/383938/3087403.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/383938/3087403.page GMT Necron building materials http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/383938/3087408.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/383938/3087408.page GMT Necron building materials http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/383938/3087425.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/383938/3087425.page GMT Necron building materials http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/383938/3087431.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/383938/3087431.page GMT Necron building materials ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/383938/3087433.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/383938/3087433.page GMT Necron building materials http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/383938/3087438.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/383938/3087438.page GMT Necron building materials

Necrontyr was the name of the pre-Necron civilisation.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/383938/3087509.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/383938/3087509.page GMT Necron building materials

Necrontyr was the name of the pre-Necron civilisation.
It is? Then what's the metal called?

As for repairing stuff, aside from the self repair abilities the necrons have:
1. I seem to remember reading a story or two that suggests Scarabs have a repair role
2. Phylectery scarabs you can find on lords (the wargear)
3. Tomb spyders, although they seem to be more liken to guard dogs than care takers I do seem to recall reading that they play a salvage role on the battlefield (this may just be DOW) and float around inside tombs maintianing stuff
4. Crypt stalker - this is an uber tomb spyder that protects and repairs the bigger necron structures (APOC, no official model as yet).

There's a short story about a mechanicus group finding the remains of a monolith onboard a ship (spacehulk?) and the monoliths power matrix wakes up when they tinker with the wreckage and sends the living metal in to overdrive and starts spewing warriors from it's portal. This is just supercharging the already self repairing living metal though.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/383938/3087566.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/383938/3087566.page GMT Re:Necron building materials Its usually called living metal, but I believe the name for the self-repairing skin is necrodermis. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/383938/3087569.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/383938/3087569.page GMT Necron building materials
Shame on me...supposed Necron player.

Lexicanum supports this view point. According to them, a 'necrodermis' is a C'tan only thing. The 'living metal' that the rest of the Necron tech (and race) is composed of has no real name that we know of.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/383938/3089980.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/383938/3089980.page GMT Necron building materials

Living Metal is also of unknown origin.


My guess for power would be Zero Point Energy. somehow, they have tapped it.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/383938/3091056.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/383938/3091056.page GMT
