Detachment Rule
Cosmic Distortion
The quantum dissonance and molecular erosion caused by multiple C’tan shards in close proximity is enough to fray the very physical being of the foe at an atomic level.
Necrons Monster units from your army have the following ability:
Distortion Fields (Aura): While an enemy unit is within 6" of this unit, it is unravelling. While an enemy unit is unravelling, each time an attack targets that unit, improve the Armour Penetration characteristic of that attack by 1.
At the start of each phase, for each NECRONS MONSTER unit from your army, that unit can suffer 3 mortal wounds. If it does, until the end of the phase, the range of that unit’s Distortion Fields Aura ability is increased to 9".
Designer’s Note: If your army contains more than one Transcendent C’tan unit, each of those units must take the Reletavistic Tether ability.
RESTRICTIONS
When mustering your army, each NECRONS MONSTER unit from your army has the relevant Necrodermal Binding ability shown below, and you must increase the points cost of each of those units by the amount shown in the Munitorum Field Manual. If this causes your army to exceed the points limit for the battle you are playing, you cannot include that unit in your army.
