So a different approach to necrons... Including C'Tan shards!

Scarabs stay hidden if going second until 8 can be added to one unit to make them survivable (or 5 and 3). D-lord with wraiths. 11 MCs advancing behind the fast moving scarabs and wraiths. 3 very versatile transporting flyers to allow warriors to grab objectives.

heh, this looks like fun, actually. Try it.
The only problem I have with it is Lord of Fire; it doesn't seem to be that useful.

They have to take two powers, and that's a rather cheap one.

Yeh that was pretty much the reasoning behind that. I was considering dropping another spyder and upgrading a 10pt power to gaze of death and finding somewhere to spend that 10points...
On a side note - does anybody else find it difficult to use a spare 10pts in the cron dex if not running crypteks? I encounter this problem quite often!

I was thinking more along the lines of utility than cost.
Then again, if one is short on points and one needs a second power, one might as well.

Yeah, I have that problem as well.

It is a paper list btw as I am missing 1 nightscythe and 7 spyders to use this list.

More so than any other dex right?

Spose I could go for a whipcoil. Could work well with the usual times arrow shinnanigans.
