Hi all,

Below are two necron lists impacted by the Arc of Omen changes, the scarab farm and the silver tide. Both seemed to change for the better with the change to the force org chart. Would love your thoughts on if you would play this or what you would change.

Summary:
54 Scarabs, 9 Spyders. NIHILAKH or NOVOKH. Looks fun! Thoughts?

Limited by rule of 3 on the scarabs arent you? as they arent troops. i guess you can have some wraiths/tombblades/ophydians as alternative flavours if you still want to max out the fast attack slots

Although, second list would work.

The first list would work if you swapped 3 of those scarab units for Wraith units. You could also take the Canoptek AoR to give the entire army +1 A and Re-roll 1's on reanimation. I played a list very similar a few weeks back and it was a lot of fun. It felt strong but not OP as the trade off of really restricting your unit comp is very obvious.
