'Making' Skitarii

Here you go OP

1d4chan.org/wiki/Skitarii_Army_Creation_Table

Because of their lack of personal personality (which doesnt seem to make sense, but kinda does) they can be anything you really want them to be.
You can turn them into greygarden style, given personalities based on whatever by their magos
You can make them into horatio, as every skitarii has its personality made into a copy of the original magos, and their faces made the same
You can have them be souless beep-boops who have no feelings and are "Squad 827, 965 and 211 have all be wiped out, reinforce"
They're the perfect Your Dudes, because they are anything you want. They're programmable to be anything you want

Admech and Mechanicum are very easy to do Your Dudes with, since every Forge World is different so you can quite literally pick a tech level and society.
Here's the lore for my Mechanicum in the Horus Heresy, but it would work equally well for a fleet-based Skitarii army, and you can still be individual with characters if you want.

They're the evolution of a Xanatite Explorator fleet, who were out of the Imperium's territory when the Heresy broke out. After the first planet they came to shot at them for being Reductor ships (who were mostly Loyalist) and the second for them being Xanatite (traitors) they decided fuck it and returned to a cushy system they'd found in their trip. Fast warp lane through a couple fiddly sectors, but an easy trip for Mechanicum precision. They set up on a planet with a whole bunch of greenery, started mining the asteroid belts and steadily assimilated the planet, using their already large number of Magos Biologis to turn the local flora and fauna into war machines. The Archmagos in charge, Xander Treides, is largely a massive cogitator bank spread throughout his fleet, and sends out copies of himself in custom bodies to lead expeditions whenever required. If he "dies", he's obviously still fine, but he loses the data that body was carrying, and his mind gets steadily more corrupted by interference and such every time, so he slowly goes a bit mad. Eventually, late into the Scouring, he realises what's happening to him and locks the useful parts of his mind into the ship, losing his memories in the process. He takes over subordinate's minds and uses their memories and perspectives, which has led to strange command strategy as he commands with the biases of anything between a great Archimandrite and a Skitarii Alpha Primus, each taking prominence as required.

W8 4 8th M8

I am waiting for the 8th edition for codexes, but should I wait longer?

For anything else I mean. Derp.

Might be a good idea, although you could always assemble some test models and do some painting.

Vanguard and Rangers are sure to return, however you might want to wait until you know for certain how you'd want to equip your alphas and specialists

I'm trying to make some your dudes necroids and figure this is a good place to ask.

I'm trying to get some background for fluff on them. Only book I've read with skelegates yet is Fall of Damnos, and I don't actually know if the Necrons we're depicted or nucrons, the leader constructs had some personality,but they were still pretty much BEEP BOOP kill everyone so maybe they were oldcrons?
Is the double cup dynasty fluffy enough for a SW killteam? I already ordered purple toobs for the Gauss flayers, and I can envision a monolith in all purple with an appropriately sized styrofoam double cup affixed at it's Apex.
The syrup-sippin' assassins
Codeine constructs
Promethazine praetorians
Maybe if I wrote some fluff for the muddy boiz? During the long sleep a cryptek spilt his lean all over the controls and the Necrons that awoke we're slower than normal, befuddled by a "chopping and screwing" of their normal protocols and possessed by a spirit much more "pimp" than the avg necron.
Is there anything fluffwise that could compel a necron dynasty to sip lean? Also I should probably paint his flayer black parts white to mimic styrofoam

OOH OOH I CAN HELP
Anything less than a lord is beep boop. Lords and similar ranks (Crypteks for example) still mantain intelligence. NOBODY has actual emotions. Just memories of emotions.
Now if you wanted some cool "Your guys" you could absolutely have a lord trying to place intelligence into those without it. But remember, a key piece of Necron lore is that nobody has a soul. They are only machines, and at best reflections of what they used to be.
So there could be absolutely one trying to create souls. Now if they can actually do is another matter entirely....but with a God of Death it just might be possible.

Squads have the same name, so all units in squad Delta-57 would be identified as Delta-57, at least if they're still like the old Mechanicum's foot soldiers.
They can have a personality, they aren't lobotomised like servitors, you'd probably want to ally Cult Mechanicus with them, so your tech priests would have names, which would be [Rank(probably dominus or adept, maybe Magos if you want)] [NAME], an example being Adept Zeth from Mechanicum, or Magos Tayber from Cain's last stand. If you really want to "your dudes" it, do your own forge world.
On the personality front once again, Skitarii aren't programmed to follow orders, they feel compelled to as though they are the will of the Omnissiah, receiving them directly from orbit.
