Been toying around with this 1250 (1248 total) list, wondering what people can toss at it to take it down. All input valued. :3
HQ
Storm Cryptek-25 (Ghost Ark)
Troops
5 Warriors-65 (Night Scythe)
5 Warriors-65 (Night Scythe)
5 Warriors-65 (Night Scythe)
6 Warriors-78 (Ghost Ark)
Night Scythe-100
Night Scythe-100
Night Scythe-100
Ghost Ark-115
Elites
Triarch Stalker w Particle Shredder-155
Heavy Support
Annihilation barge-90
Annihilation barge-90
Necron Monolith-200
I was thinking of using the Monolith as a wall for the Ghost Ark and two Barges to ensure that I make it to the second round with fliers. Goal is to keep the Monolith away from the big nasties with Str 10 stuffs while using the Night Scythes to take those threats out. I normally disdain using the Stalker at this point value, but I wanted to push as many vehicles as I could with what I have for models. Plus, its got twin linking goodness for the Particle Whip on the Monolith; and two templates to take out hordes.
Again though, what do you folks think of the list? :3

Just for a heads up, you can't use a cryptek as an HQ. they are part of that force organization slot but don't count for it. To even take a royal court you need to get an overlord.

I suppose so. I ended up dropping one of the Barges for the plain Overlord to shunt into the Ark.
Again, thoughts? :3

Drop the shredder on the triarch as the 2 shot mm and hf is awsome also I would keep the warriors at 5 for all of them and take night scythes for all of them and take a second triarch stalker as fhey work best in pairs

Ya know, Ive never thought about running the Stalkers as a pair before. Though, to be fair, it is 300 points to do so. I went with the Shredder for the extra template as I have the storm cryptek to handle any AV14 I may come across. Though, I should have said for context; I dont plan on going up against any armies with many vehicles. I expect todays lists to be foot slogger Marines or Daemons, possibly Orks too.
As for the warriors and scythes, its already that way.

Because Doomsday Arks require too much support to be effective (they can't move, or they get weaker, meaning you need something to protect them, as they'll get no jink save).
At 1250 points, you don't have a lot of points to waste on baby sitting.

Btw I would edit/update the list so we can see all the changes to the list better and I would listen to skoff he usually knows what hes doing
Even with the stormtek I would still drop the shredder for a heat ray because you need to get that ark within 12 inches just like the stalker fir irs melta but if the ark gets popped the stormtek probably isnt gonna get within range of a tank making it mostly useless all game and with your 4 things on the board t1 something is getting popped because you are not hideing two barhes and a ark behind one 6" long monolith
