My FLGS is hosting a growth league. I recently restarted playing warhammer 40k. I only played 4-5 games of 8th edition. This will be my first time playing Necrons since 6th edition. So I am very rusty. Originally I was going to make a footslogging list. Then after I found out that everyone else is taking it very competitively I felt I would get shot off the board. ( Someones bringing a leviathan with 2 cannons on top of a really shooty list) Here's what I'm thinking about taking.

Dynasty Custom
OJ secured
6 inch move first turn

Battalion detachment

HQ

Technomancer
arkana photonic transubjugator

Lokhust Lord
Warscythe
Phylactery/Nanoscarab casket relic
Warlord Immortals pride warlord trait

Troops

Immortals x5
Gauss

Immortals x5
Gauss

Necron Warriors x10
Gauss Flayer

Elites

Ctan Shard of the Void Dragon
Powers: Cosmic Fire and Voltaic Storm

Fast Attack:

Canoptek Wraiths x4
Vicious Claws

My idea is to have the wraiths and the Lokhust lord go after mid range threats. While the Void Dragon plays distraction carnifex and charges their army. Then the troops can survive and hold objectives. The Technomancer can help the warrioirs with his rites of reanimation.

So what do you guys think? Is there something I should add or take away?

I think you lack bodies on the table. I don't know about you, but I find hilarious the idea of having a bunch of necron warriors reanimating thanks to a technomancer, ressurection orb and ghost arks. Couple that with the Objective secured dynastic code, this might help you have an edge over other armies.

I agree this is a video on Necron Warriors.
