If I play a smaller point game and am unable to run a full Necron Decurion Detachment, am I allowed to run something like:

2 units of Necron Warriors

10x Necron Warriors

10x Necron Warriors w/ Ghost Ark

1 unit of Doom Scythes

1x Doom Scythe

1 Canoptek Harvest Formation

1x Canoptek Spyder

6x Canoptek Wraith

5x Canoptek Scarabs

Would this be a legal setup and still grant the benefits from the Harvest Formation?

EDIT: I'm sure this is probably over the points needed to include a Reclamation Legion, but just wanted to give a sample.

Yes you can, it would be unbound, but you can use any formations you want within a detachment.

Canoptek Harvest is a seperate Formation, it can be included anywhere you like for its benefits. The above list is Unbound but includes a Formation, which is perfectly legal to do.

You would be better off (in my opinion) of making a bound CAD, 1hq, 2 troops, and adding everything you want under that, THEN adding in the canoptic harvest formation, which of course adds the rules for that formation. Doing this, your two troops will be objective secured, while also gaining the benefit of the improved units within range of the spiyder.
