Hello Machine Spirt,

I had a vision of units of necrons bouncing in and out of shooting and I decided to write this list. It might not be spot on for points but I will adjust it later when I have my book.

Hq - Nemesor
Hq - obryon
hq - Court
chronotech
Darktech
reslord
hq - Overlord, res orb, pheobie

hq - court
chronotech
darttec



troop - warriors x 10
troop - warriors x 20
troop - imorrtals, tesla, x10

fast - wraiths x 3, coils
fast - scarabs x 10 -

heavy - doomsday
heavy - annihilation
heavy - spyder x 3, fca, pc

The battle plan would be thus:

Each troop unit gets a Res Orb, Veil of Darkness, and a chrono. The only unit who doesn't would have obyron.
It would look like this:
Unit 1 {
Obyron
warriors x 20
res orb lord
}

Unit 2 {
Nemesor
Chrono
Viel of Darkness
iimmortals
}

Unit 3 {
Overlord,
chrono
viel
warriors x 10
}

So each unit has a 4+ WBB, can deepstirke, one unit has no scatter when near nemesor, the other two can deepstrike and can use the chrono to reroll once die for when/if they scatter.

The Nemesor unit would deepstrike first, then Obryon after that since he won't scatter, and when he gets in combat he has enough troops not to get over run easily and can deepstrike out of combat next turn. The overlord unit can deepstrike and fire at range so he doesnt have to worry about dieing to much.

Then I have spyders and scarabs for anti-tank. Doomsday ark to blow up elite units of CC units. Annihilation for light anti-tank. And Wraiths for everthying inbetween.


I'm really excited to give this list a try. What do you all think? Thanks

I love it.

I tried similar with the old dex when friends would let me remove the limit one on Veil for funsies.

But yeah, the actual composition I might toy around a bit but three strong veil units just sound like tons of fun.

Which SC can give any unit a USR? Just thought you could replace your generic Overlord with him, and then have a second unit the could hit and run to protect against getting swamped in CC.

But overall I dig it. You need the anti-tank for a competitive build but for a fun build you could swap that with some DSing FOs, LGs, Wraiths or Tomb Blades just for maximum in your face fun times , (The of course you might want the SC that allows re-rolls to reserves).

Oo! Good point I didn't consider actually using the Hit and Run rule. and that is the nemesor guy who i have in the list as it is. Thats even better!

you can't stick 3 court members in a squad...it has to be up to one guy from each court.

Also just had a thought, try to work in a Solar Pulse. Then you could DS a flank on turn one, eliminate the opposition, and you would have the pulse to protect you against return fire from the opposite flank.

I think this list could be comp. Don't forget that everything in the Cron book is antitank. Gauss weapons dude. I rapid fire 40 guass weapons into a land raiider, its just going to get glanced to death.

No I agree, I was referring to swapping your HS for more DSing goodies, but I do like the way the Annhilation and Doomsday synergize with the rest of the list. Many opponents will concentrating so much on the Warriors and Immortals in there face that they might forget about the Big Cannons bombing them from a distance.

Curse you are correct I have to drop the reslord.

I'm not sure how much more DS I can get without the aid of a monolith.
