Coming from the 6th edition codex (I think) it talks briefly about a minor noble who lacks a royal court would still command a legion of warriors, a few phalanxes of immortals and a phalanx of lychguard. But what I am wondering how many necrons make up a phalanx and how many phalanxes make up a legion.

Unknown as far as I know. But, important to note, it's INCREDIBLY rare for necrons to actually loose troops. If a single necron is severely damaged it teleports back to it's tomb world for repair. In the rare case it cannot teleport it self destructs.

So while most armies are loosing individuals the necrons generally just keep on keeping on unless something very drastic happens to their tomb worlds.

Such as the inquisition knowing that they exist and having a button near them.
