"Being" awesome?  If I could give you a -QP for your comment, I would.  There is no "being" awesome for the Necrons.  They are awesome simply for being Necrons.

But they look almost identical to your ordinary Necron... except that they don't duo wield Gauss Rifles. If anything they look better. But yeah apparently not.

Just got a bunch more of w40k books.

Ravenor, gaunts ghosts, ciaphas cain. Oh my

Also planning to read the novels about blood angels and ultrasmurfs.

Ravenor is an excellent Inquisition series. I liked Eisenhorn more though guess its because I dont find a floating char TOO relateable. Eitherway still a very good series finished it myself recently.
Havent read the Gaunt series I hear its very good though. And well you can never go wrong with some Cain^^.

About the SM series the Ultramarines series is great (BUT READ STORM OF IRON FIRST!!) but the Blood Angels one... wouldnt recommend it. I have the Omnibus (assuming youre talking about Deus Encarmine and what was the other... Deus Sanguine?) I found it a rather bland and unexciting read. Too straight forward and well... simple is the wrong word but it just didnt feel as epic, good or immersive as the others. If you decide between one of the two you should go for the Ultramarines omnibus.

Hmm intrigueing... Is the Word Beares series any good? I read what it says on the back of the books and it never really tickles my interest. Eventhough Im a chaos fan, just doesnt seem very... exciting.

I know people who have read the books told me they got glued into them instantly

Also the last book has some Necron's and that is always a plus

You should see my 40k book collection.  I have to have close to 60 books or so.

If you like the Necrons (as you should), I recommend Dead Men Walking and the Damnos Incident.  You can also check out the Ultramarines Omnibus and the Soul Drinker's Hellforged novel for more Necron stories.

As to Gaunt's Ghost, I gave up on it after Necropolis.  I accidentally read ahead and that ruined it for me.

Maybe not but im sure they could do something interesting with individual necron lords or with the C'tan

Actually, someone should write a book about the war in heaven and how the necrontyr became servants for the star gods

Dem Bloody Magpies...



They steal everything they come across.



Everything!

Anyway, what books would you recommend, and where would you suggest getting them?

Also, have anyone of you seen the Ultramarine Movie?

Watched The Ultramarines movie last night that just came out.  Considering the limited budget it was very good.


Omegas words of wisdom. While he isnt wrong I have to say I didnt like it that much. Simply because when I read the books all the scenes were a lot more vivid in my mind so obviously a low budget movie will not be able to match that. I enjoyed reading any 40k book more than watching the movie. Its not bad I just feel like the books are a much "wholer" experience.

And well the Horus Heresy series is always good if you ask me. The rest is up to personal interest. A book I can definetly recomment though is "Storm of Iron". ****ing epic. Go to your local Games Workshop and ask the clerk where they sell the books if you dont have a comic book store somewhere in the area.
