Either the Phase Shifter or the Semp Weave is usually enough. Still, don't know where you'd put the points for dropping one or the other. I'd normally suggest Zahndrekh if you like both the 2+/3i, but it's clear both the Overlord and Cryptek are going with the Immortals, so you'd only benefit from Zahndrekh if you run the Nightscythe empty.

Other than that, you've got a Solid AV13 wall. I'd recommend taking the Particle Shredder, or the Heavy Gauss on the Stalker if you can find the points. It's more of a personal preference.

I agree with Akar, this is a really solid list. I personally like the heat ray on the stalker, because it gives you some solid anti-armor (besides glancing) and can be really helpful in taking down really tough vehicles (land raiders and stuff) because after it hits everyone else counts as twin linked against it, which means more refills for more 6s to hit and more glancing hits.

Also Akar I'm a little confused on why Zahmdrehk affect the use of the night scythe. Why would he not just replace the overlord in it with the immortals? Plus then you can take tank hunters or another special rule, and he's actually cheaper than the overlord in this list

Zahndrekh can only use his tactics when hes on the board and as he would be in the night scythe he would not be on the board turn 1, and indefinitely turn 2/3.

True but it's still pretty much a free character, even if he can only use his special rules turns 2 or 3 and up

I only suggested Zahndrekh because he has both, but as above, he's much better on the field. It could be fixed by dropping a warrior and cramming him in there.

The issue with this list is the flexibility. He's got his numbers really good with max units, and the points freed up won't get him anything beyond a unit of Scarabs, which doesn't work on this list.

He might have found a reason to take both saves on an Overlord, there really isn't a better use for the points saved.
