"As the regiment hurridely mustered, sergeants and provosts bellowing at the troopers to gather their weapons and prepare for battle, the drop pods hammered to earth a hundred kilometres or so north-west of the regiment's posiition. Bane knew that another regiment, the 17th Cadian, was encamped in almost the very spot the drop pods were impacting.

...

At last, an artillery spotter attached to the 17th transmitted a desperate request for an artillery barrage to be targeted on his exact position, and Bane immediately routed this to the self-propelled artillery units attached to his regiment. Even as the spotter's transmission degenerated into incoherent screaming, Bane heard the rush of incoming ordnance over the vox-channel and said a silent prayer when it was abruptly cut off as mushroom clouds blossomed on the distant, north-western horizon»

"Not questioning the colonel, Tamzarian yanked back hard on the brake lever, instantly bringing the tank to a stop from a speed in excess of a hundred kilometres per hour. Thanks to the jokaero’s ministrations, none of the occupants of Traitor’s Bane felt any of the ill effects of such a rapid deceleration. The same could not be said of the Bloodthirster.
It launched from the body of the Hellhammer, velocity driving it through the air for over fifty metres before it hit the ground and skidded the same distance again, bowling over its smaller daemonic cousins on its way. For several moments, it lay there unmoving, smoke still rising from its form. Just when Strike thought it was vanquished, it stirred, dragging itself to its feet and thrusting its fearsome axe towards the heavens. Bellowing a war cry, it dipped its head and charged, the ground beneath it cracking open with every stride.
"Full ahead. Ram it again," Strike said calmly."

"Tzula shifted position within the compartment, keeping her arms out alongside her lest the rocking motion of the tank take her feet from beneath her. K’Cee had improved the handling and suspension to such a degree that Traitor’s Bane could move at speeds close to two hundred kilometres per hour without the occupants being aware they were moving. Despite their urgency to reach the Emerald Cave, K’Cee had to limit his speed to much lower than that to allow the other tanks to keep up, much to the jokaero’s chagrin."

However, when the insurrectionists seize control of a Deathstrike missile battery, the resulting bombardment disrupts Raxos' tectonic stability. Millions die in the span of a few days."

"They’ve given sergeant mortlin’s squad some kinda’ bomb, came out of the warhead of one of the deathstrikes. If he can get that thing into the reactor-hub in fort blackskar, high command figure he can set off a chain reaction that’ll burn right through the planet’s crust and set off every volcano on tratica."

"By far the most common payload for a deathstrike missile is a plasma warhead. When one of these gigantic missiles detonate everything caught in the blast is engulfed in a raging fireball that vapourises flesh in an instant. There is no escape from the cataclysmic explosion as everything, even buildings, are torn apart. so armed, a deathstrike missile launcher has the capability of annihilating entire armies."

"Now those entrances are sealed with bonds of wraithbone a thousand times stronger than steel, and cursed with runes so potent that just to look upon them would drive a mortal creature insane."

LIVING METAL The war machines of the Necrons are things of impossible science and countless arcane technologies. To the young races of the galaxy, the energies and weaponry of these strange engines of destruction are more akin to magic than anything recognisable as physical engineering. Living metal is a perfect example of this kind of advanced technology – a substance that defies harm by literally healing itself before the eyes of its attacker. Though the means can vary between dynasties and the skills of the Crypteks that serve them, this miracle is often the result of billions-strong swarms of nanoscarabs crawling under the skin of the war machine. Like the living cells of biological creatures they will seek out damaged areas and cluster around them, mouths the size of atoms chewing up matter and forging it back together. However, as with most of the Necrons’ arcane techno-sciences, there are almost as many ways to manipulate matter as there are Crypteks. Captive phase-gates, subatomic infusers and temporal loop shrouds can all exhibit similar effects to nanoscarab swarms. To an Overlord, how these abilities work are of little concern, as long as they do.
