Orikan & Overlord with Lychguard. Overlord use veil to teleport lych up close. Also solar staff for snap shots only against the unit after deep strike.

(I'm unsure whether you are able to take more than one artifact on the overlord so solar staff would change to war scythe if it isn't legal.)

Deliberately not Decurion as my friends aren't big fans of playing against it which I kind of understand.

Thinking of dropping ghost arks and adding more warriors or maybe immortals as only two vehicles won't last long I guess.

Let me know what you think.

Like you guessed, you are not able to take more than one artifact on a single Necron character. Other than that, the list looks ok. It doesn't seem to have a great deal of damage output and a single doomscythe might get destroyed before it can do much good. Honestly I'd try and go with more warriors in ghost arks to make as much use as possible of the ObSec you get. The lychstar is a very solid (but not totally overpowered) deathstar that should serve quite well. The harvest is still good, but I think you can prioritize other things.

Yeah I see what you mean about damage output. If I was to drop the deathmarks and doom scythe that would leave me 250 points to spend. What would you recommend for some good shooting?

For just 250, the only options I would consider would be 2 units of 3 destroyers or 10 tomb blades with shieldvanes and nebuloscopes. Both are good, mobile units that can dish out a lot of painful firepower. Their mobility and durability also makes them useful for grabbing objectives. Both are quite weak in cc however, so make sure to keep them away from any melee threats.

If you could drop more points, a judicator battalion or destroyer cult would be your best option. Both have good amounts of low ap shooting and excellent mobility. However, they are also quite expensive, so you will have to make substantial alterations to your list to fit them in. IMO, they often synergies better with a decurion, but they will be good here too. If you decide to go that route, I'd pick the destroyer cult.

It looks alright, the issue I see now is that you don't have that many troops to benefit from the Triarch stalker's bubble, and the lychstar is now going to be too slow to do much. I say bring back the ghost arks and maybe some destroyers or more warriors who can benefit from the Triarch stalker. Either drop the lychguard (and have orikan go with the wraiths) or drop the harvest.

I agree with Anrakyr, and as you're going with a CAD I would personally be tempted to try to squeeze 2-3 Triarch Stalkers in there with warrior blobs to get that sweet sweet 2+ shooting
