So this list was made to be played vs a high troop count necron army. I need to force as many saves as I can, stay as mobile as I can, and stay as far away as I can. Deployment of OSC+Shadowsun will be key and use my suits, riptide and drones to support. (I've tried the plasma suits and he uses a lot of beasts that get 4+ reanimation so even with 3 suits + commander in rapid fire range I can't take them all out in one turn and then they charge me the next and I'm dead. I need to try something different)
