I mean like you said it's basic. It's what necron players will take if they want an auto win.

It's boring...effective and boring; exactly what is wrong with this codex and 40k in general these days.

Hmm. Only thing I see being an issue is shear massed fire. Orks espically green tide could be an issue. You will likely get the charge on them. But I don't know how much good that will do for you.

GK Dreadknights with Gattling pysiliners not fun either. They will likely pop a wraith a turn. not counting the Heavy Psycannon paired with. In close combat I the wraiths have the edge if you don't lose too many getting their.

In cc with dread knights a full squad will like 1-2 wounds a turn and will likely lose 1 wraith a turn. And given in a 2000 point game your could see up to 6 dread knights in a spam list more likely 4-5 though.

Eldar Wave spam will still be a big pain as well.

VS a Take all comers list I think you got an edge vs other spam lists I don't like your odds.

Collect it, paint it and play it

Looks like a dull force if you ask me.

Wow - I'm not sure my Gk could beat this list. Necrons are going to be so brutal.

I don't think nightcythes are all that great. This looks like spam for spams sake and takes away your options. A tau gunline will have no problem interceptor planes and piling saves onto the wraiths, and this list doesn't do much to threaten imperial knights, especially in the ad lance formation.

What do you plan to do in missions like the relic or basically any maelstrom mission? Why include Zahndrekh? What matchups do you see as strengths/weaknesses?

It's not a bad start, but you are going to severely lack board presence with over half of your list in the air. I would recommend dropping on groups for some Heavy D's in HS or something.

I'm not sure if Zandy is the best HQ for the list either, although he's not exactly a bad option in any list.
