Hi, I started this thread because I had a hard time putting my necron immortals together... I ended up melting the back wire for me to be able to connect the arm w/ the gun to the immortal torso.. I need your experienced input on how you made your immortals look nice w/o compromising the figure... Thank you.. I'm all for the best out-put for my figs.. makes me feel I got my money's worth.. Thanks in advance.. keep invading and upsetting table tops with necrons!

Yeah Imms are a bit strange to put together. Anyway i wanted to make them look they actually hold the gun ready to fire and pointing straight at the enemy, so i guess you had a hard time with those cables right? An easy way is to glue your guns in any way you like and then fill the gap with greenstuff made cables, i didnt do this, i just left them with the cables all over the place but they look nice anyway!! By the way do you have pics? that way we can solve it easily

Sure, I'll show it to you guys once I upload it. What I did was heat the plastic.. then bent it, I melted 2 wires.. the sad thing is melting takes the detail away, hmm gw and their hard to model figs... Could you give me a heads up what other figs among the ff. have a similar difficulty modelling what I have I am anticipating to complete scythe barge ark warriors crpytek obyron new necron lord illuminor szeras I learned the immortals through experience good thing theyre just troops.... Hahaha on a side note, I was comparing how easy it was to model marines and how easy it is to play them... Looks like the poster boys were really made to market the game.. (no offense meant, just my 2 cents)

Why take Obyron and not Zahndrekh too? Those guys are MEANT to be fielded together...
I suppose by saying wire you mean the cables on the Imms' backs right?

Yup, the one's that look like tails...
Will get obyron's partner once I think of a build around them...
No offense but I didn't like how Zandrehk looks, just my prefence..

...assuming you want to pay 200 or more on metal Imms...
Anyway take a look at the tactica section, there are many Zahnobyron Builds, the most effective been Zahn on CCB and ob with 10 Deathmarks and 2 Veilteks (So a second Overlord too)

just dont forget to assemble ghost ark instead of the doomsday one youll benefit from it more in games besides its much more fun to play with ark in terms of possibilities it provides and synergy it gives than just to drop those nast ap1 pie plates ;D

SK you're cruel nothing apar from vehicles can withstand that lol who said Necrons are not Cruel?! About the arks, i think the Doomsday is more fitting in "Big guns never Tire or "Relic" missions, where the enemy just has to get his models within sight and BOOOM!!! ...The Ghost is all-rounder, but can be max useful when 3 of them are forming a Phalanx, each unit having 2 court members (So 2 Overlords).

HERE GUYS!!! Finally got a reliable way on making our immortals the way they were supposed to be... www.bolterandchainsword.com/index.php?autocom=ineo&showarticle=145just copy and paste it... my Philippine forum for table top gaming sourced this out to me.... awesome find.. And for the ark... hahaha.. Yeah.. That 72" ap 1 gun is tempting... is it worth it's 175pts? who has used this? Saw your batt. report against nids, your scythe's did most of the damage.. hmmmmmm? I'm thinking once all armies have fliers, we'll be one of the first ones who'll stop fielding them.. eventually we'll have the weakest, Just my guess... Have you guys seen the chaos figs? the dragon and the 4 legged dinosaur looking model?
