This is one of my first attempt at a real playable Necron list, as I said in the title any input would be awesome. I'm gonna be going up against Grey Knights a lot, so any tips to handling them as well would go along way

Looks like we got ourselves a Tremorspam list in the making. I've always wondered how they'd do against GK's.

Less lychguard, more Crypteks with Tremor, for starters. 2-3 would be optimal, and leaves you with a gain of 90 pts if you give them all harp (which I honestly wouldn't, free up more pts as well).

From there, you can't go wrong with Wraiths or Scarabs. Though you may want to invest in a CCB for your Overlord.

I'm sure there's other things I'm over looking, but I'm tired, and that's all I have off the top of my head.

Troopwise you're looking very light, the ghost ark and resi orbs will provide some durability to your units but at a 5 man a piece unit you're likely to lose the entire squad to a single round of shooting and be unable to make your reanimation rolls on the next turn.

I'd back up the concept of dropping the lychguard in favour of some more warriors for your troops squads and then blow the spare on aditional crypteks.

I've also heard mixed opinions about the Destroyers lately, I always used to love them but they now compete with wraiths and tomb blades for a fast option and you might find the wraiths more useful as a CC element if you lose the lychguard.

Deathmarks (95pts) 5x Deathmark (95pts) 5x Synaptic Disintegrator

To me deathmarks are easy KP i mean they come in they shoot, they get shot up and gone, thats my opinions

Lychguards (200pts) 5x Lychguard (200pts) 5x Warscythe

Really kinda slow and point heavy and they dont have the dispersion shields so i would say theyd be hard pressed to get into combat


Troops (245pts)

Necron Warriors (180pts) Ghost Ark (115pts) 2x Gauss Flayer Array (5 Flayers per Array), Quantum Shielding 5x Necron Warrior (65pts) 5x Gauss Flayer

Necron Warriors (65pts) 5x Necron Warrior (65pts) 5x Gauss Flayer

Troops are really light gonna have a hard time with objectives and if they get there there not going to be to hard to take out

Necron Destroyers (120pts) 3x Destroyer (120pts) 3x Gauss Cannon

my opinion unless you take bigger squads these are point hogging units. i mean it only takes 3 failed saved and the squads not coming back.
