Thanks fore reading this Battle Report. Please comment what you think about game, army lists and of course about this Battle Report.

More Necron Battlereports coming.

lol that was a fun read, once again point taken .... shoot C'Tan ... or ignore them ... not assault

Nice game

Jeah! It was fun to play too. Only thing was that my opponent ****** that game. Still it was fan.

doesn't look like the pariahs did too much. looks like wraiths would be a better use of those points for that particular force.

Agreed, I'd also suggest using Wraiths, as they are faster and will therefore make it into combat quicker. Skittering them behind BLOS terrain to keep them behind, then jumping out and assault.

Pariahs are uncompetitive and generally never make their points. Wraiths also are kinda useless, especially against MEQ. I would have taken a Destroyer Lord, and maybe 3 more Destroyers, and possibly a few more warriors. Or a Monolith and a pimped out Lord. Still good battle. Good to see another Necron player

Cool, wraiths always seem to fail against me when i play against necrons. Maybe thats just the player or something else. And I've never played against a person who used a Pariah.

Anywho i like the battle report.

yeh wraiths and pariahs are fail units. they never actually make their points

Wraiths work, you just need two units working together with a destroyer, res orb lord. Incredibly tough and fast. Try it backed up by 5x destroyers. Hitting on flank works best.

wraiths have no way of killing MEQ, they will wound maybe one model, and then die. The only army they will ever excel against is IG or Tau. Otherwise, they are a waste of money

Say what you will, I came in second in a tourny with that unit winning me each game. Just proxy it in a regular game.

Dont get me wrong, they have potential. But they just arent worth 41 points a piece unless they can take care of MEQ. The new codex needs to fix them. Give em power weapons or at least rending

Yeah! Pariahs didnt do much. I swap them to warriors,lord maby wraiths or extra destroyer. Who knows!

while pariahs dont usually make their points in my games they do do the job that i need them for. since they use warscythes there are no saves against them in assaults, so they make great anti termie bodyguards for my warrior blocks, also that LD debuff they have is beautifull when paired with flayed ones, since even fearless units need to make that leadership to hit flayed ones since its a leadership test not morale.
(rule for fearless states all morale and pinning tests passed) that paired with the 24" S5 shooting they do. overall measuring point cost effectivness with pariah's is a moot point since they are that just in case termie or equivelant buffer

I would get a monolith or some immortals

I think you should use Monolith and don't take pariahs, but don't lose wraiths i think they are great

Monolith would be good but no. This lists idea is to play without monoliths.

Pariahs are actually useless tho. So maybe include a lord with a warscythe, res orb, destroyer body and phylactery. There you have a close combat beast that can wipe out a squad of temies in one turn. It can get back up with 3 wounds as well. Besides Nightbringer, this is the best CC you can have in Necrons

I normaly play lord with DB and put him with wraiths I think Phylectery is waste of points. Gaze of flame would be good. With high iniative and -1 Ld if they win combat (if with wraiths) they can sweep almost anything!
