Command the Canoptek Circle: 8 Necron constructs that dominate through the Obelisk Node Matrix! Place 3 node markers to create a matrix that buffs your team with +1 APL and Accurate 1 weapons. Use ploys like Hypershielding for defense and Transdynamic Amplification for Ceaseless shooting. Operatives are fast (Mv 5-7) but fragile (7-21 wounds), excelling at shooting with Gauss/Tesla weapons while controlling objectives via nodes. Unique mechanics include reanimating fallen allies, sacrificing Canopteks to protect the Geomancer, and generating expendable Warriors. Master area denial and tactical flexibility!
