Inertialess Drive
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
Inertialess Drives are propulsion systems used by the Necron Fleet that are capable of interstellar travel without the need to enter into the Warp.[1]
With inertialess drives, Necrons are capable of incredible speeds[3], capable of crossing the galaxy in “the blink of an eye”.[5] When engaged, the harvest ships of the Necrons accelerate with a flare of relativistic energy.[2] Besides interstellar travel, the inertialess drive can be used to make short-range jumps on the battlefield.[1][4] The inertialess drive is only one of a number of technologies the Necrons use for FTL, others include Dolmen Gates and teleportation.[3]
