Hello, I'm very new to Necrons and I'm looking to build my army further.
I currently have:
1 Overlord
1 lord
Anrakyr the traveller,22 warriors,5 immortals
Night scythe
Annihilation barge
3 tomb blades,monolith,scarabs,ctan deceiver
I've been proxying deathmarks and using the decurion formation
My planned army is this:
Reclamation legion
1 Overlord (Warscythe, res orb)Put with Lychguard with sword and shields)in night scythe
12 warriors
10 warriors ,
Anrakyr with veil of darkness and5 Immortals
3 Tomb blades(shield vanes and shadowloom)
1 monolith

Deathmarks
Transcendent ctan or deceiver
Annihilation barge

Could anyone suggest some better way of forming an army under 1850 points, and maybe another under 1500 using as many of the models I have already
Thanks

In your list, you say you're putting the overlord with lychguard, but I don't see lychguard listed in the available units. Do you have lychguard?

Are you willing to buy anything new? You're currently using everything available to you so I don't know how we can help you.

How are you including Anrakyr and an Overlord in a Reclamation Legion? How are you including an Annihilation Barge? Are they unbound? Please list each detachment and formation you're using with it's contents clearly defined. See some of the other posts in this sub-forum for reference.

You need Ghost Arks. Plain and simple. Other than that, you can't put just an AB in a Dec. You'd need another AB and a Doomsday Ark to form an annihilation nexus.

Just stick to a CAD for now. Unless you're willing to spend the money to get the required models to fill out your list, and even then an AN in a 1500 point game is not the greatest idea points wise.

Working on it

Yeah, there is a lot of formations you can start to build. Darth_Mox is right though, you need at least 1 ghost ark. I would recommend getting a Cryptek seeing the you have an OL and L.

Think about what your play style is and bring in auxillary units that play well to that. Darth, I love your avatar, it's gold

<Dynasty> ~10500pts
War Coven of the Coruscating Gaze ~3000pts
Thrice-Damned Plague Corps ~3250pts
Admech (TBN) ~3500pts +30k Bots and Ulator

You don't have enough to make a decent Decurion. With what you have. I'd recommend something along these lines:

Combined Arms Detachment

Anrakyr the Traveller

Overlord: Warscythe, Resurrection Orb

C'tan Shard of the Deceiver

10x Deathmarks

5x Immortals (Anrakyr goes here)
Night Scythe

15x Warriors (Overlord goes here and the unit uses the Monolith portal)

3x Tomb Blades: Gauss Blasters, Shield Vanes or Nebuloscopes

Annihilation Barge

Monolith
(1495)

Regarding next steps, definitely look at getting a Ghost Ark. I would also look at either a Canoptek Harvest or a Judicator Battalion.
