Go Tau.
Necrons are an assault-range army. They do their best shooting from the bleeding-edge of the short range bracket, and that can be a VERY hard playstyle to master. Tau are much easier to learn to play. I would NOT recommend Necrons for a beginner.

Dakka is the ork word for shooting, but the ork concept of shooting is saturation fire. Just as there is no such thing as a "miss" in a target-rich environment, there is no such thing as a "dodge" in a bullet rich one

Nowadays, it seems more like an army full of cyber snakes and croissants of varying sizes with just a couple of obligatory Arnies off to the side to mind the objectives.

 Necrons: 4000+ pts
Tyranids: 1000+ pts
 Word Bearers: 1500+ pts
 Emperor's Children: 1500+ pts
 Minotaurs: 2000+ pts (killed by Primaris, thanks GW)
 Custodes: 1000+ pts |

Anyone saying pick Necrons because they are easier to paint is insane. Tau you pretty much just need a spraycan and a highlight and you have 1000 pts painted daily. Not particularly inspiringly, but seriously, they are possibly the easiest army to paint in the game
