In what fucking universe does that random jackass have any authority over your idea? The Star Wars universe, apparently.

Why I Made a Necron Army
As he (too) often does, Tyson bought some models. This time it was the Indomitus box, which came with some more boring marines as usual. I knew that those would be his since he likes that crap, maybe too much. The other half were some funky looking robot dudes, I told the husband maybe I should try my hand at them.
