01
Understand the entity

Context and role

Tomb Citadel is the upgradeable Necron centre of operations and the production engine for the faction’s units. The same faction preview places it at the origin of several relocation systems: forces can enter it for translocation to Tomb Pylons, and units held in reserve there can later emerge through a Monolith’s Eternity Gate. These links make the Citadel strategic, productive and logistical without defining every headquarters rule. The source publishes no construction cost, upgrade tree, production list, queue, durability, weapon, reserve capacity or rebuilding condition.

02
What is established

History and changes

The Tomb Citadel is introduced as the anchor for a Necron design based on slow, steady expansion. It starts the faction’s operational network: production radiates outward through structures that spread the Power Matrix, while translocation helps the otherwise slow army reach distant battlefronts. Its upgradeable status is part of the current faction concept, not evidence of a balance revision. The official article records no earlier Citadel implementation, changed production rule, revised upgrade, removed function, patch history, version comparison or direct inheritance from a previous Dawn of War title.

03
Apply the knowledge

Practical use

The documented role is to treat the Tomb Citadel as both headquarters and production engine, with an additional connection to Necron relocation. Units can be held there for deployment through a Monolith, and Tomb Pylons can receive forces entering the Citadel. That supports a broad hub-and-exit model for a slow faction. The article does not describe the player inputs, capacity, travel delay, production order, upgrade choice or preferred destination. Useful guidance can explain the hub role without inventing a queue, build timing, defensive layout or transport rotation.
