Hello all, I am starting a Necron army and was wondering what units I should get. Any advice is really appreciated

Sorry guys, forgot to say I was looking at an overlord and triach praetorians, but what else would be good for an army

Annihilation Barges. As many as possible.

Yes get some annihilation barges, I'd say three to fill all heavy slots.

Wraiths are pretty good aswell in a pack of six with 3 whip coils

You'll want an overlord in there with a res orb, Warscythe, Mindshackle scarabs and a sempiternal weave (and phase shifter if you have pts left over)

Get some bodies in there aswell, maybe a couple units of warriors and some tesla immortals

Finally get some transports to move them around, maybe a ghost ark and a nightscythe

Have a play around with stuff like that, pretty flexible army with abit of mobility aswell with the transports. Good thing about Necrons is one small change to the list and the whole game changes!

wraiths and night scythes if your going for competitive but ghost arc is still strong choice if you want a undying unit of warriors but will be harder to use then a night scythe.

at least 2 annihilation barges either 1 or 2 full or near full units of wraiths, with a destroyer lord they can re-roll failed to hit and wound rolls of a 1 what makes them even better, and some night scythes with biggish units of warriors or immortals, deathmarks and scarabs are quite handy in some situations to
