Apparently you can build a viable list at 1500 pts with 20 or infantry models.

I somehow doubt that (unless terminator spam)


DA 4000 points W/L/D 6e 3/2/0
IG 1500 points W/L/D 6e 0/2/0

How well does that list work?


I haven't seen in it played against the new 'Nids, SW, and BA codexes, and I beat a list similar to it with a SoB army, but I had some lucky rolls and SoB usually do well against MEQs.

I doubt it would win any tournaments, but it's fairly decent. Not many armies can handle 3 Landraiders at 1500 points. I think a BA army with 2 Assault Squads and a Death Co squad in LRs would be better though.

I just bought one this weekend; They're still for sale on the GW website.

EDIT: I just got an email saying basically "How the hell did you order that?" so, they're not available.

Necron Lord - Destroyer Body, Lightening Field, Warscythe, Phase Shifter, Phlactory - 210pts (goes with scarabs to turbo-boost and wreck stuff)

Troops

16 warriors - 288pts
