Subject: [2000] - Eldar or Necrons - which list should I run at my local tournament

Stock Farseer hangs in the back with the two walker groups to keep guide on them. I know I want to bring bikes and spiders, just wondering if maybe I should favor bikes over the spiders. The wraithknight could have been a third walker group, and originally was, but I thought creating a wound sponge would be good tactics, people cant ignore the knight forever, and when they do try to engage it, it usually takes over-commitment to actually down him.

Two deathstars bring 3 templates wounding on 2+, two of them at AP1, the two warrior night scythes carry 8 haywire shots a piece for anti-tank, three barges and two arks plus the night scythes themselves provide plenty of the anti-infantry, and the one destrotek brings a little additional anti-tank, but more importantly guaranteed night fighting turn one to prevent getting tabled before flyers arrive.

With barge lords as strong as they are right now I would consider trying to fit one in, although I don't know where you drop the points from. Other than that I love the necron list. The only criticism I'd have is you have to resolve the s8 ap1 flamer and the gauntlet of fire separately, so maybe not the best as the last template to fire will miss out on any targets that were killed by the first round that shot.
Automatically Appended Next Post:
All said though I really would love to see how it plays, the triple flamer paratroopers was always something I wanted to make work with necrons so let me know how it does if you do end up running it.

Thanks for the feedback, I've heard a lot about how the command barges have gotten better, but only in bits and pieces, is it simply because of the general buff to vehicles in 7th?

Eldar list looks good and competitive. No waveserpents I see. Anyways you have lots of anti tank and anti infantry. Full squads of jetbikes are cool. Probably a personal preferance thing but you might want to split up one of those squads just to get some extra scoring units

Ok was able to rework the Necron list by dropping the destrotek and taking minimal units in the ghost arks, by doing so I was able to drop the overlords from the deathmark groups, as with 7th edition rules the third template being a different weapon would probably be wasted, and put them on command barges, new list follows. You do lose the guaranteed night fighting turn 1, but with two overlords on barges deploying, the chances of getting tabled are significantly reduced.

No, its special. It can RAW join other units, can choose to put hits on the lord or the barge, RAW can have a 3+ invul from whatever wargear gives him that, can jink for the 4+, and then yes also has the harder to kill damage chart.
