Destroyer lord x1SoL x1 phylactery/nano-scarab x1 rez orb -165
Wraiths x6 - 288pt
scarabs x3 - 39pt
scarabs x3 -39pt

the idea is have DLord in NS with tesla immortals to capture obj while Dlord tanks, warriors marching it down with crptek and olord while tesla immortals offer cover from behind, AB with gauss cannon to weaken charging enemies, and wraiths plus scarabs to tar bit expensive units. I need help with good dynasty let me know your opinion

~James

James, it might be helpful to think through a few potential issues.

1. Your scarabs are minimum sized. Do you think you can reliably handle tarpitting? You have no significant anti-tank in the list.

2. What synergy do you think the D lord has with the Tesla Immortals?

3. What happens if the Night Scythe is destroyed early? Were the D Lord and both Immortals going in it?

4. Are resurrection orbs competitive use of points?

5. What is the Overlord doing if he isn't with the Immortals? Is he buffing the Warriors?

6. What is your Warlord Trait?

Sautekh may help the Annihilation Barges if you go with the Gauss Cannon, and it would help the Warriors get off some shooting while they slog across the board. Nephrekh would let you use their Tesla Cannons while being lightning fast (also helps the Wraiths). Mephrit helps if you think people will be in your face quickly (and help the Night Scythes guns).

Hello friend,
I have taken your advice and revised my list, I realize for points this low its kinda hard to have the fast attack i want flyers and the heavy support detachment, so with the models i have i crafted this list. Although it may not be the most competitive it certainly is food for thought.
pt 1545pt
Battalion det. +5cp 1015 points:
Dynasty Sautekh

Imotekh -160
Crptek VoD Chronometron SoL - 95

x5 immortal tesla - 75
x5 immortal tesla - 75
x20 Warriors - 220

flyer
Doomscythe-150

Heavy support
AB Gauss cannon-120
AB Gauss cannon-120

Novokh outriders:
Dlord Nanoscarab, warscythe, res orb

FA
x6 Wraiths-288
x3 Scarab-39
x3 Scarab-39

so the idea with gauss cannon sautekh I liked alot so i threw 2 in there to deal with tank as well as a doomscythe with sautekh ruling for good measure, Novokh outrider units can zoom straight in to tarpit expensive units as well be unkillable I wanna give the rp saves plus with res orb for safe measures but the dlord with nanoscarab he should be very survivable, and if my blob of warriors are getting a little too close to something theyll get rekt by they can port with the cryptek to the novokh detachment or to get in rapide fire mode for offense. now with immotekh he just looks pretty awesome on paper and since im using 2 small immortal units might as well get two mwbd buffs for the msu :/ however i cant do anything about the scarabs since i dont plan on buying anymore warriors so they are stuck there until i buy destroyers then i can make a big unit of 6.
im 45 points over so yikes, but this is the best I can think of for my models I have.

thanks for your advice!

Well, I'd start with a battalion with 20 Warriors and 2x8 Immortals.
Then I'd add three Doom Scythes. AB's are just too slow and have a mediocre damage output.
Finally, I'd add some Wraiths for counter charge or attacking along a flank.

Sorry guys, I meant Doom Scythes.

Sorry, but this list wouldnt even win a casual game.

Dont nightscythes have the same weapons as AB?

damn well, since these are the models i have ill have to give it a shot and see whats bad and whats good.
I just need 1 more doomscythe to get the flyer formation so i think thats my next move towards 2000pt, however since i do really love wraith models and dlord I wanna see how they perform, however i dont think im commited to buy doomsday arcs let alone paint them so ill have to bear with the annhilation barge however imo its not that slow as the push up with immotekh and warriors they can back up the outrider detachement at full strength with sautekh tactics, but then again im just basing of tactics within the codex without actual experience against meta armies such as space marines rn. thanks for your criticism tho i appreciate it

Sorry, I meant Doom Scythes. I've corrected it.
You know my antipathy against Doomsday Arcs.

For competive warriors don't really cut the cut. Meanwhile tesla immortals are one of the necron's best units. So warriors->10xtesla immotals and 4 more to another block(5 if you can find 5 pts more)

flyer
Doomscythe-150

0 or 3. 1 is silly. Power of necron flyers comes from stratagem which requires 3.

Heavy support
AB Gauss cannon-120

Fun unit, not good. Drop the flyer and upgrade these to dda's. Or at least make 'em cheaper with tesla small gun. No -1 to hit(you will be moving a lot) and cheaper.
