Aeonic Orb
The greatest Necron weapon of destruction, The Aeonic Orb was used mostly in the t Great
reat War in Heaven and even then it was rare.
Rumored to be the remains of a destroyed star, the Orb was not just a titan killer extraordinaire, but a source of eternal sustenance for one
of the C’tan gods they served. While Imperial plasma weaponry loses nearly all of its energy by the time it reaches its target, the Aeonic
orb has a far more powerful containment system, composed of of layers of phase fields and gravity shields that can be moved at will to fire
immense beams of contained plasma. Not only this, but the Aeonic Orb can focus massive amounts of radiation that is well known to
simply pass through any material to incinerate the living beings within. Enemy forces have found, after no small loss of life, that the breach
of these defenses results in a massive explosion that can wipe out a large amount of the surrounding Necron forces
