C&C would be appreciated!

Hey guys! My local shops summer campaign is about to start and for it I would like to use a 1000 point list. This is what I came up with so far.

HQ----

1x Necron Overlord (145)
- Warscythe
- Resurrection Orb
- Sempiternal Weave

Royal Court:
1x Cryptek- Harbringer of Destruction (55)
- Solar Pulse
1x Cryptek- Harbringer of Destruction (45)

Elite----
1x Triarch Stalker (150)
-Heat Ray

Troops-----
10x Necron Immortals (170)
-Tesla Carbines
12x Necron Warriors (156)
12x Necron Warriors (156)

Fast Attack-----
3x Canoptek Wraiths (120)
-1 Whip Coil
-1 Particle Caster

Total: 997points


1 Cryptek into each Warrior squad.
The Overlord into the Immortal squad.


So yeah... I am still a nooby so any help would be appreciated!

The Cryptek Harbinger of Destruction is only 35pts. The Overlord w/ Phaeron, which is how the he should be taken for a footslogging list, gives the attached unit relentless, so he would be better used to head a warrior squad, which I would consolidate into a 15-20 man group. The wraiths are also a bit out of place, as 3 tend to go down fast. I would get rid of them and consider sticking Res Orb Lords which are only 65pts a piece. Maybe something like this:

Overlord w/ Phaeron, Warscythe, MSS, Resurrection Orb
Lord w/ Warscythe, MSS, Res ORb

Triarch Stalker w/ Heat Ray

17 Warriors
10 Immortals w/ Tesla

5 Destroyers

The S5 AP3 guns on the Destroyers when backed up by the Stalker are devastating. They can be swapped for 2 Anni Barges alternatively, which will give you more dakka perhaps, but the Destroyers are a lot of fun.

I see. I have a couple destroyers around somewhere so I can just try that list in a small game. Thanks

As a different point of view, in your first list, reduce the number of warriors to add an extra three wraiths.

I have not had success with blobs of warriors (even with Ghost ark support) in low point games because they run off the board or get swept too easily.

I feel like 3 troop choices at 1000pts is to much....id drop 1 to make room for some of the other suggestions.

My suggestion:
Anrakr the Traveller, catacomb command barge

Royal court;
Harbinger of despair, veil of darkness
Necron lord, warsythe, ressurection orb

10x Immortals, tesla carbine
20x warriors, ghost ark

Gives you just under 100 points to play with.

Anrakr gives immortals a boost and is nice himself, sweeping his sythe across the board.
Harbinger with buffed immortals and deepstrike next to an open unit. even a CC unit will suffer charging with counter-attack.
necron lord with warriors walking up.
ghost ark remains empty just reviving warriors along the way, as it isnt doing much damage it should be ignored. when the warriors drop to 9, put them with the lord into the ghost ark and stay safe.

Your HQ is your anti tank, followed by warriors.
Immortals are anti-infantry with the nice Pyrrhian Eternals buff
Warriors can handle both. and hopefully with take alot of fire (hopefully with 6th, 24" rapid firing!)

Hope this helps
