Khaine: Destroyed when running from Slannesh into the real world, his/its form was instantly shattered into pieces.

C'tan Shards: merciless forces of nature which betrayed the Necrontyr and were utterly obliterated in a revenge ploy by those necrons and they're huuuge firepower post war in heaven. Buuut you can't really destroy a c'tan, so they pumped them full of guass so hard they began to break apart and those weaker shards were trapped. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/466062/4588912.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/466062/4588912.page GMT C'tan shards unoriginal? ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/466062/4588954.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/466062/4588954.page GMT C'tan shards unoriginal? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/466062/4588966.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/466062/4588966.page GMT C'tan shards unoriginal? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/466062/4588981.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/466062/4588981.page GMT C'tan shards unoriginal?

Agreed. I personally believe the changes in their new Codex were needed to make them a more characterful and customisable force; diversifying their race and really providing the player with opportunities for customisation and personalisation.
It really helps the Necrons overall as a collectible force IMHO.

It wasn't perfectly done, I would've preferred they moved away from the Tomb Kings side and made them more grimdark, but I feel for the large part it was a good and required change.
Then again, the Tyranids get away with a relative lack of customisation or character, but that could arguably only serve to make the oldcrons less original... Is the galaxy large enough for multiple genocidal races?

I also love the idea of the Necrons uprising and defeating gods. I probably would've preferred it had they not gone down the shards route, but I love the idea of gods being destroyed like that, particularly in a universe where gods are so powerful.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/466062/4589066.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/466062/4589066.page GMT C'tan shards unoriginal? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/466062/4589269.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/466062/4589269.page GMT C'tan shards unoriginal?

Heh... hate on the Eldar much? Khaine was defeated by Slaanesh and enslaved. Khorne, being the Chaos god of war, claimed Khaine for himself. The battle between the two is what shattered Khaine's body. Not him "running away".]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/466062/4589639.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/466062/4589639.page GMT Re:C'tan shards unoriginal?
Void Dragon used Power of the Omnissia.

Matt Ward used Retcon. It was super effective! Void Dragon fainted.

I thought the void dragon was still part of the background, it's just a loose shard now.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/466062/4589782.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/466062/4589782.page GMT C'tan shards unoriginal? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/466062/4589807.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/466062/4589807.page GMT Re:C'tan shards unoriginal?
