I've built this list starting with idea of "commando squad" of Pyrrian Etherals, Anrakyr and Obyron.
I just wanted to field them and the rest of list came up as a sort of backup and support for that unit.

Few words on commando squad:
- 10 Gauss Immortals upgraded to Pyrrhian Etherals, Obyron and Arnakyr
- they get veil DS from Obyron
- they are joined by Cryptec with Chronometron mostly to reroll 1D6 if DS goes bad.
- they are aimed to land within 12" at all costs
- on turn they land they shoot 20 S5 AP4 shots
- on the following turn they Assault or if they got assaulted - counter assault

And since we know the idea for that, let's see the full list:

HQ: (455pts)

- Arnakyr the Traveller (165pts)

- Vargard Obyron (160pts)

Royal Court:
- Cryptek /w Eldritch Lance & Solar Pulse (55pts)
- Cryptek /w Eldritch Lance (35pts)
- Cryptek /w Aeonstave & Chronometron (40pts)

Troops: (470pts)

- 10x Immortals /w Gauss Blasters (Pyrrian Etherals) (170pts)
- 10x Immortals /w Tesla Carbines (170pts)

- 5x Warriors (65pts)
- 5x Warriors (65pts)
Note: both units led by Lance Crypteks

Elites: (305pts)

- Triarch Stalker /w Heat Ray (150pts)
- Triarch Stalker /w Particle Shredder (155pts)

Fast Attack: (500pts)

- 6x Necron Wraiths (3x Whip Coils, 2x Particle Caster) (250pts)
- 6x Necron Wraiths (3x Whip Coils, 2x Particle Caster) (250pts)

Heavy Support: (270pts)

- Annihilation Barge /w Tesla Cannon (90 pts)
- Annihilation Barge /w Tesla Cannon (90 pts)
- Annihilation Barge /w Tesla Cannon (90 pts)

Total: 2000 pts

What do you think?

Obyron is a combat power house, no doubt... but the unit lacks survivability.
(yes, they'll get Counter Attack, and being able to reroll some things helps to a good degree, but really, that's not all that much).

I have run a similar Eternals deathstar with Szeras in place of Obyron.
Not only does this give the unit ANOTHER bonus (+1 to BS/S/T can make a massive difference to these guys), but the whole unit will get defensive grenades. I then throw in a Lord with Warscythe, ResOrb, MS.Scarabs, Weave (sometimes even a P.Shifter), and that unit becomes hard as nails.
Sticking them all in a Night Scythe cancels out their slowness issue, but leaves the problem of a big deep strike footprint for easy mishapping (hopefully the new fliers rules that come out next month will fix that, though).

The whole unit comes out to about 525 (625 with N.Scythe).
So far, they have absolutely wrecked house in every low-point game I've stuck them in.

I like it. Possibly the only thing I would change would be to swap an anni barge for a CCB to give you more anti tank. Appreciate that you have stalkers (I assume you are planning to have the stalkers and lanceteks as your major AT) but at this point level there may be lots of av13+ mech.

This raises the question of who you put in it. Anrakyr is good, but you can only use mitm out of the barge. Obyron you need for the immortals. Hmmmm. Maybe scrap that and have a gauss anni barge instead?

Or, drop Obyron and use a std olord with phaeron, orb instead. You can use spare points to get a despairtek with veil instead plus the phaeron will make the gauss immortals relentless so the 12" won't matter as much.

Anyway, these are minor tweaks to a list.
