Well there is good news and bad news.
Good news is I tabled the eldar, despite being unable to pass more than 2 morale checks all day,
Bad news is I forgot my camera.

Needs to be tweaked a bit. It started as a "royal Court all the things" thought experiment, then moved into a maximum 36" + 2 SP range, and finally got rounded out by the inspiration in this thread.

So you have three teleporting units:

Oby+stormteks for busting just about any tank in the game.

Death&Despair on crack the eat death stars and provide general harassment

Zandy/Olord/Lord and Gauss Imnmortals to eat troops.

While those three are teleporting around causing headaches, your 13 twinlinked/Preferred Enemy S8/9 AP 2 36" shots should be able to rain down on them mostly unabated.


With only about 60 models the body count is particularly high, but it's got some interesting things to work with there.


Like I said, it still needs tweaks, but I think that would be a pretty fun list to play.

I've been theorycrafting my own, which has ended up similar as well, with three teleporting units.. but I've done it slightly differently.

I have a taste for un-used/maligned/different units.

HQ:
Zahndrek - One Immortal Squad
Obyron - Canoptek Sypders
Lord (Resurrection Orb) - Other Immortal Squad
Cryptek (Despair, Veil of Darkness) - With Zahndy
465pts

Overlord - With Flayed Ones
Warscythe
Mindshackle Scarabs
Sempiternal Weave
Resurrection Orb
Cryptek (Despair, Veil of Darkness) - With Other Immortal Squad
215pts

Flayed One Pack x15
195pts

Tomb Blades x5
Particle Beamers
150pts

Necron Immortals x10
Tesla
170pts

Necron Immortals x10
Night Scythe
270pts

Canoptek Spyders x3
Fabricator Array
160pts

Doomsday Ark
175pts

Monolith
200pts

That's two teleporting squads of Immortals with a res-orb in each (Zahndy and Lord w/orb). Zhandy can ofc give interesting rules to units.

The O-lord with the Flayed Ones can Outflank, and let's say they permanently lose 5 FO's before they get into assault, that's still 40 attacks on the charge.

Tomb Blades can zip around targeting blobs and generally harass stuff.

Obyron teleports around those Tomb Spyders and gains their toughness.

Night Scythe for AA.

Doomsday Ark for being a threat from across the board whilst you're dealing with the teleporters.

Monolith can deny an area and if any of the immortal squads loses its Cryptek, he can summon them to him for safety. Plus it's an AV14 wall that the enemy might not be able to deal with in the current foot-themed lists.

I think this could be quite annoying for someone, whilst fun/fluffy at the same time. Ofc I'll be converting up my own Zahn/Oby with different names.
