How does a Necron Lord compare to Space Marines? Any feats to consider?

An average (not a Commander or Captain) Space Marine wouldn't be much more than fodder to a Necron Lord. The Lord most likely wins. His gear is very impressive to say the least.

What about someone like Karandras? Could he hold up? What do the phylactary and Mind Scarabs do?

@Esquire: Karandras would have real difficulty beating a Necron Lord (depending on the gear it has however). His agility might keep him from being struck and he may land a lucky blow but more often than not I would lean towards the Lord.

I'll need Strider to confirm this but phylactery is a program in the Necron Lord that speeds up his regeneration. Your normal Necron Lord can regenerate at the kind of rate Wolverine can with phylactery he will have a Deadpool style healing factor almost instant healing. Mind Sacarb's are like mini robot beetles that crawl out of the Lords body and can infect his enemies by burrowing under their skin and allowing the Lord to psychically possess them.

The OP seems to have watered this Necron Lord down as that isn't his full standard gear set. With his full standard gear the Lord would most likely lolstomp.

Except for his whole absorbing-anyone-who-kills-him thing, I think any two of the team could take Karandras.

Even with Deadpool-level healing, it'll still take him a little while to regrow limbs, and Nemesis and Zealot can both takes limbs off pretty easily, especially with Nemesis' Creation Blades. All three have move prediction, and all three are ridiculously skilled. Middy has good durability and a HF, Zealot has solid durability and Nemesis has great durability, but I'm leaning towards the Necron Lord for a slim majority with that gear.

@Esquire: Yeah the absorbing kill thing doesn't work on Necrons because they have no souls so if Karandras gets killed by one of them he's pretty screwed.

I found my Necron Codex and scanned the gear :D:

This Necron Lord is serverly watered down. With their full gear they can manipulate time and render themselves completely invisible by phasing out of reality. Fortunately the OP took those away lol!

Yeah lol I made sure to take out the gear that lets him slow time, move FTL, BFR people into pocket dimensions, phase out of reality and use forcefields that allow him to run through plasma fire like nothing. If I included a full Necron Lord then he would absolutely slaughterstomp. I want a decent match so I dumbed the Lord down a bit by taking away some of his haxed standard gear.

Oh, I was saying if Karandras fought Team Midnighter.

But it certainly looks like the Lord has enough power to take this, although the Battle Computer combined with the team's skills, stats, and weapons might let them take one or two matches.

Sweet. I read 3 Novels with a Nec Lord in them. Soul Drinkers 5th Book Hell Forge, Word Bearers Novel Dark Apostle and Dark Creed.

In all 3 they were pretty much Unbeatable foes and only in the Soul Drinkers was that Nec Lord Killed and only due to Plot Device.

It took a all out Dreadnought to put one down and it reknit itself in moments.

I see the Neck Lord with this setup winning.

@CadenceV2: the one in Dark Apostle was exceedingly haxed. That was the one who was made of scarabs yeah?

#13 Posted by CadenceV2 (9771 posts) - 6 months, 7 days ago - Show Bio

@Strider92: Yeah but was a solid Nec Lord in Dark Creed.

@CadenceV2: hmm don't think i've read that. Was that the guy with FTL movement?

#15 Edited by CadenceV2 (9771 posts) - 6 months, 7 days ago - Show Bio

@Strider92: No but it was the same Nec Lord in the first book. He was huge and overpowered both Marduk and Kor Baldar in Terminator armour easy. It took the Warmonger Dread to smash him to bits. Only to reform right after.

@Strider92: @Esquire: I have the Battle of Marduk vs Undying One right here.

1st Battle. With Marduk vs his Master and Undying One.

Second Battle in Termie Armour in the Third Book.

Outclass in both heavily. Marduk is a very powerful Chaos Lord of the Word Bearerers too.

@CadenceV2: Nvm found out where that one was from. Was in Fall Of Damnos. One of them used chronomancy to move down multiple levels in a nanosecond. Fortunately I remembered not to let this Lord have that lol.
