Deathmarks

Deathmarks are Necron sniper units defined by their ranged target profile. The faction preview says they can outrange and eliminate enemy Commanders and elite infantry from a safe distance. That establishes a specialised combat identity without naming a particular opposing character or formation, and it should remain at that category level. The source does not publish a weapon name, squad size, cost, production structure, movement trait, firing cadence, range value, damage figure or defensive quality for Deathmarks. Their supported role is long-range pressure on valuable personnel, not a complete unit sheet.

Deathmarks appear in the Necron design preview as one answer within a faction built around slow, resilient expansion. The article places them beside other specialised tools to show that the roster can threaten important battlefield pieces while the wider Necron force advances. Their sniper identity and target categories are presented as current design, not as a change from an earlier version. No prior weapon, revised range, altered target preference, balance pass, veterancy path or patch history is recorded for Deathmarks. The page also offers no comparison with a previous Dawn of War implementation.

The only qualified target guidance is categorical: Deathmarks are intended to outrange and eliminate enemy Commanders and elite infantry while operating from a safe distance. That supports a role description focused on valuable personnel, but it does not justify naming a specific Commander, declaring a guaranteed kill or claiming equal performance against every elite unit. The source gives no positioning rule, supporting formation, firing sequence, upgrade choice or retreat behaviour. High-level use should preserve the published sniper role and its target classes without converting them into an unsupported build or matchup table.
