Have an upcoming friendly game. As it's a friendly game, I didn't want to cheese it up too bad, but still want a chance to win. Was wondering what people thought of the list, and if it was whacky enough, but still possessed some strong core elements (both opponents are bringing decent lists, but aren't that experienced at the game)

Spoiler:

****HQ - 385****
Imotekh (225)

Obyron (160)

****Troops - 675****
20x Warriors (415)
- Cryptek of Eternity
- - Chronometron
- Dedicated Ghost Ark

10x Warriors (130)

10x Warriors (130)


****Elites - 280****
10x Deathmarks (280)
- Necron Lord
- - Warscythe
- - Semp Weave
- - Res Orb

****Fast Attack - 270****
6x Wraiths (270)
- 6x Whip Coils


****Heavy Support - 380****
Monolith (200)

Annihilation Barge (90)

Annihilation Barge (90)

****Total = 1,990****

Imotekh will be with the primary blob. One concern I have with it, is that I don't have a res orb in that squad, so I am going to have Imotekh out front, and hoping that with his saves and the chronometron he can soak the hits (Also, have him look out sir if I need to soak hits he's not in front of).

Obyron will go with the Deathmarks, giving them a way to harass back field objective holders, and get out of dodge if they engage a unit in CC that they don't want to be with. The monolith will start in reserve, and DS to cause max damage, since I know both armies will be able to take it down with lances and other nasty tricks. But if it survives, will provide some extra mobility. Everything else will be doing it's standard job.

Obyron (160) I don't really like putting Obryon and a Lord with CC wargear in with the 10 man Deathmark Squad. Feels mixey/wishy/washy. In a competitive game, I like 7 man squads of DMs with a Despair-tek +Veil, but that is pretty mean for Vs new players

- Dedicated Ghost Ark (maybe throw 5 lords with MSSs and WSs in here )

Maybe try something oddball that doesn't get a lot of play in serious games. C'tan? Destroyers? Lychguard? Good luck, and have fun

I do have one C'Tan model that hasn't been used since the new codex dropped... No destroyers though, and still need to buy some Lychguard. Wish I did have some Lychguard though, this would be a great game for them.

As for the veiltek, yeah, I thought about going that route, but it was overly mean. Main reason I put the lord in with the DM, was I had the points, and wanted them to have a res orb. Obyron is there (instead of just a veiltek), just in case the unit that I am pushing off an objective needs a bit more love than the deathmarks on their own can push out.

I would drop the ChronoTek and transfer the Res Orb Lord to the blob. with the spare 60 points from the ChronoTek, buy two StormTeks and put one with each smaller warrior squad.

Just my two cents
