How do you reckon i should use three monolioths ( w/5 immortals,a lord w/ warscythe and res orb and 20 warriors) in a 1500pts game versus space marine, (10 assualt termies, shrike,2 5 man rhino tac squads and three thunderfires)

Put your warriors in cover, go to ground, and let the monoliths fat everything?

3 monoliths in 1500pts? That's pretty much a suicide mission (if Necrons knew of such a concept). Seriously under currently rules he has to remove... about 20 footsloggers and you lose. You have what 26? Won't end well.

Yeap. Literally your best bet would to deploy them out of LOS, go to ground, and just hope they can live. It would be you trying to block everything on the board with 3 monoliths. I think you're going to have a huge amount of killy fun, and then phase out for the loss.
Good game though.

You don't use three monoliths.

It is better to cut 1-2 from the list for more essentials units. As of now you have almost nothing to deal with terminators so even a C'tan would be feasible in place of a monolith. Try to get some destroyers for his rhinos and flesh out the immortal squad.

THere is a c'tan in it as well, the deciever, it's not my list and the codex isn't with me so i forgot, but would he make a difference do you think?.
