I am looking for a way to make a low model (infantry count) decurion formation for necrons at the 1500 point mark. No monoliths obelisks or ctan please


Any veteran necron players have any input? Thanks!!

You could min out your required Warriors, Immortals, and Tomb Blades, then take one of the vehicle formations. Since you don't like Monoliths, Obelisks, or CTans, you might consider the Annihilation Nexus, or the Flyer formation.

Also, a Destroyer Cult is relatively low count, and is the bee's knees. You could also min out the Praetorians in a Judicator Batallion, which I've heard is also an excellent formation choice.

Lots of options, but I'm not sure how realistic any of them are under 1500, as I don't have the codex with me atm.

A fully upgraded and armed to the teeth Royal Court is scary too.
Place a stalker next to it and unleash the BS5 Tachyon arrow terror.

Or you can just keep buying chaos everything, and not play them. Just sit alone in your room for years, painting and detailing, and detailing some more. Then keep doing that for years until you own upwards of 10000 points of chaos. Keep shining their swords and sharpening their knives. Then some day, some wonderful day, when a new book comes out that will realize your armies' potential, come out from hiding. Everyone will have thought you had left warhammer 40k for good, but no, you had been training, preparing, and brooding for this moment. Return with such vengeance and hatred that you will not hold back, and you will destroy everything in your path. Like a true chaos crusade, wait for the right moment, then burst forth from the Eye of Terror and unleash your pain on the whole universe. And when they cry and complain that you are OP and that it's not fair. Reassure them that it's true. It isn't fair, but it's what they DESERVE. All of them, each and every one of them deserve to be obliterated into oblivion. And if they ask you to play with a fluffy army, tell them you will do so. But on game day bring the meanest nastiest, ugliest army you can. Give them no opportunity for victory, give them no opportunity for enjoyment. Your only goal is to inflict as much pain and suffering as possible. And when they cry, and they will cry, laugh at them, drink their salty tears, and bath in their sweet, sweet blood.

If playing 1850 or above, maybe, but not such a good idea in a low point game.

OP, any of the infantry formations are a good idea:
- Canoptek Harvest will give you a fast and very effective CC presence
- Destroyer Cult will wonderfully murder most things you come up against
- Judicator Battalion are a bit more specialized... perhaps not recommended for new players in low point games.

I'd avoid the vehicle formations in low point games for now. They'll end up eating all of your resources without giving you much back in return.
