Just thought of this on the spot it is a really useless but fun army that I might try and see how long I can survive
HQ
Stormlord
Szeras
TROOPS
20 Warriors
10 Warriors
10 Warriors
ELITES
20 Flayed Ones (infiltrate)
20 Flayed Ones (infiltrate)
20 Flayed Ones (deep strike)
HEAVY SUPPORT
Monolith (deep strike)
Monolith (deep strike?)
Monolith
Imotekh is really my only hope with this list. He opens up a small bubble for my flayed ones to ds in or my monoliths can bring them in. Szeras goes with the blob of 20 warriors and I hope for a good augment. The three major weaknesses I see with this list is 1. Flyers 2. Anything with a 2+ 3. Manticores. I'm not sure if I should deep strike my 2nd monolith or not it will probly be based on what my opponent has on whether or not I will ds it I.e. large blob=no ds lot of AT=yes

First off, kudos for pulling out the "weaker" units of the codex (flayed ones). It's always fun taking units that aren't that strong and seeing what you can do with them. Always a fun thing and a really interesting tactical experience. And sometimes the sheer shock of it can do amazing things
I can't offer a ton of necron advice, but I can offer in some meta advice maybe? Try scaling the list down some, imo. At 2k points it's going to be hard not to see a flier from somewhere (unless your meta doesn't have a bunch), and there will be a lot more scary threats for you to deal with.
I'd recommend trying to drop it to 1.5k or so, and see what happens (to test). It might keep the # of scary things down. Either way, let us know how it goes.

I just love Flayed Ones, they're crap, but SO AWESOME!! And, I agree that you should stick a flier or some anti-flier stuff in there if all else fails, due to the recent influx of flier lists

I will definitely try to get a batrep up of this game (might see some proxies  ) but if I were to scale this down, what do you suggest I drop/swap?

I wish I could give you more info, I'm not SUPER familiar with necrons. On the whole, though, I can just say that dropping points down will help you avoid some nasty things in a lot of metas (particularly fliers).
That beings said, Idk what to drop, especially considering I LOVE the idea of 60 flayed ones just creeping up on people
