As the name implies. A Necron gunline using the venerable Gauss Pylon. I'm running Nihilakh to give the Doomsday Arks reroll 1s, as they should hopefully remain stationary.
The Stalker exists to give reroll 1s to either the Pylon (Which won't be getting a Dyansty Code benefit), or the Immortals, as they will rarely be able to remain still.
Ideally, the Pylon will start on the table, and help counter flyers, things like repulsors, and knights (Which the macro profile doubles damage against)

I never used the nihilak dynasty, but it seems sound to me. Maybe take a cryptek with a canoptek cloack instead of a lord ? Since you won't have much mobility, a cryptek would help you have more staying power on the table.

I like the idea behind grabbing a Cryptek normally.
However, right now, more likely than not the lord is going to use Destroyers (after they get My Will Be Done) to Veil of Darkness into an optimal position to fire, as a cheaper throw-away HQ. The Overlord needs to stick to the immortals to keep them fearless.
I suppose if the destroyers don't die and have to reanimate, the Cryptek can pal around with them. Good call.
