So my current 1250 list is as follows:
Necrons - CAD
HQ
Destroyer Lord =110
Troops
10x Warriors = 130
5x Immortals w/ Nightscythe = 215
Elites
Deathmarks = 90
Necrons - Formation: Judicator Battalion
Triarch Stalker w/ Heat Ray = 125
5x Triarch Praetorians w/ Rod of Covenant = 140
5x Triarch Praetorians w/ Rod of Covenant = 140
I'm a little stuck on where to go from here for 1500. I've got several options I was thinking off, Canoptek Harvest, Tomb Blades w/ Nebuloscopes, Particle Beamers, Flayed Ones, Necron Warriors, Nightscythe? Help appreciated.

If you want to move into the Decurion, you would need tomb blades. I like squads of 5-6 with shield veins and nebuloscopes. You would also need an Overlord and another unit of warriors. With more warriors, a ghost ark would be worth while as well.

Decurion, always Decurion. The extra Reanimation protocols borders on broken. So I would suggest expanding that CAD to a Reclamation legion, then you can add the Deathmarks and Judicator Battalion to it and make a pretty sexy Decurion.

Deathmarks = 90
Destroyer Cult
Destroyer Lord (goes with Deathmarks) = 110
3x Destroyers, 1 Heavy = 130
3x Destroyers, 1 Heavy = 130
3x Destroyers, 1 Heavy = 130
3x Heavy Destroyers = 150

The Destroyer cult is awesome, I've had some good luck with it. First off through, I would suggest dropping the heavies out of the destroyer squads, you'd do better off with more shots and then shooting them at anything with a 3+ sv. They have guass so they can still kill any vehicle and you can use the praetorians for your AP 2. By keeping the heavies only in the heavy squad, every unit is more specialized, so less firepower is wasted.
The Destroyer lord is a bit expensive just to give preferred enemy to a unit. Give him everything and voidreaper, then kamikaze him into anything you want dead and he could give it a run for it's money.
For the overlord, why the Nightmare Shroud not Phase Shifter?

I guess a 2+ armour save? He was going to be the Warlord and I guess an easy linebreaker taker by DS there turn 5.
But it's an easy shift to move it and other stuff to the DLord by taking you up on those suggestions

I'm not sure I get the idea of the 2+ over the 4++ honestly. If he is going to be in combat, you'll want the 4++ and if he's not in combat, the save shouldn't really matter. As a shooting character, the veil may be more valuable to get the hell out of dodge if you need to.
