I would go with army 3 not many people can handle 3 monoliths in 1500 pts

Smart people would go for phase out though, so I'd suggest starting the warriors in reserve

Army three or one. I like army one but I would loose the spyder

I like to imagine the Emperor kills so many Orks that he ends up half buried beneath a pile of corpses, with only his head sticking out. A lone grot stumbles across him, and starts choking him.

Then Horus comes across the lone grot, somehow managing to kill the Emperor, and punts it into space.

You want to learn to get by with 20 warriors, and you generally need to pick a power unit and spam it. You are much better off with 6 Destroyers than 3 Destroyers and 3 Heavy Ds due to how WBB works.

Right behind you...

As said earlier, army one is pretty flawless. The things I would change if I were you is the Tomb Spyder. I would drop that, and use it's points elsewhere. Secondly, the 3 Destroyers and 3 H. Destroyers combination would be better if you took 4-6 normal Destroyers and 0-2 H. Destroyers. From my experience, 5 Immortals is enough. Finally, you should try to squeeze a Warrior squad in, if possible. Otherwise, well done.

There is only the Emperor, and he is our shield and protector.

Go for army 3. That much armour will be hard to beat, especially if you're careful with your warriors & avoid P-O.

The best thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's far too late to stop reading it.

I'd avoid using immortals tbh, they seem kinda bad for the extra points cost. Fitting in 2 or 3 monoliths can help with the extra WBB rolls, army 3 seems the best imho, perhaps drop a warrior squad and invest the points in more destroyers though

Just thinking about it, if you could drop a lith from the 3rd army & add some more destroyers, that'd make for a killer list IMO. Necron armies do well when Liths & Destroyers are spammed.

Blue red has a good idea. I'd playtest it (if you can) both ways, one with 3 liths, other 2 liths with more destroyers.

Army 3 looks useful for horde, orkr, gaurd, tyranid, all that jazz...

I don't know if I'm crazy about any of those...

Why not

Nightbringer
10 Warriors
10 Warriors
3 Destroyers
3 Destroyers
Monolith

The Destroyers are great for hurting Rhinos, the Nightbringer makes it impossible for Orks and lots of other things to assault you and a Monolith is, well, a Monolith! Watch out for Dark Eldar, though.

Drink deeply and lustily from the foamy draught of evil.
