{{DarkEldarPortalDrukhariPortal}}The '''Cronos''' is a [[Dark Eldar]] [[Image:CronosEngine of Pain]].jpg|right|thumbWhile broadly similar to other [[Engines of Pain]] such as the [[Talos Pain Engine|Cronos miniature (5th Edition)Talos]], Cronos engines are far more exotic and extradentary machines{{Fn|1}}

==Overview==[[Image:CronosArt.jpg|thumb|right|220px|{{PAGENAME}}]]The Cronos is a Dark Eldar Engine of Pain. They Engines are semi-sentient, part organic and part mechanical monsters that slowly drift along on anti-gravitic motors. Created by the [[Haemonculi]] through a strange blend of alchemy and sciencewhich produces a feedblock loop of negative energy{{Fn|2}}, the Cronos drains away not only the physical constituents of it's its victims but also their life essence - what little is left of it's its unfortunate victim is a pathetic shrivelled shriveled husk which quickly collapses to little more than dust.{{Fn|1}} Much like [[Talos Pain Engine]]s they are often used as torture devices, but put on a spectacle that Haemonculus creators take great delight in witnessing.{{Fn|2}}

*'''Spirit syphon''' - a device that launches a field of baleful energy that allows the cronos to drain the life force of nearby foes.*'''Spirit probe''' - a device used in close combat, the cronos inserts a tube into the victim and chucks the life force to dark eldar nearby, strengthening the warriors with each kill.==Images==*'''Spirit vortex''' - this hurls a large burst of negative energy, turning all that is caught in its radius into a empty husk[[Image:Cronos.jpg|thumb|center|220px|Cronos miniature (5th Edition)]] ==See Alsoalso==
