OOC: probably because they're not space marines. It seems that the sub-conscious opinion of everyone is that, only space marines are capable of being powerful warriors. As I said its sub-conscious most likely, probably derived from the handful of 40k video games that have been made.

IC: "Dagorekh!" Roars Xerex of the intercom as the giant guardian lifts up an Eldar flacon and tears it in half, "how do we kill this thing?!"

The answer came from Sarumanekh, "you can't, or at least not with the weapons you have available, this is a puzzle, like the others before; you've your intelligence and your speed, what else does the dynasty revere above all?"

"Courage. But how can that help us?"

"I don't know, but I do know that that canoptekh creature is giving off an energy signature that resonates the word courage back into the computers here. You must prove yourself!"

"Oh, well that's just wonderful," muttered Xerex, disconnecting the intercom. "Okay then," he said turning to face the giant beast, "you want my courage, here it is!" He charges forwards, and leaps into the air, weapon gleaming. He'd targeted his leap so that he would land on the creature's head, but the guardian's tail whipped out suddenly, knocking Xerex away into a nearby ruined structure. "So that dosen't work," the necron lord muttered to himself as he clambered from the rubble.

'What is courage?' He wondered, 'they say it is not the absence of fear, but the ability to acknowledge that fear, and still do what must be done. But I am a necron we have no fear. So what am I supposed to do?'
