Hello I wanted to get some necron ships for some BFG action but wanted to know what ships to go with? I like all them but not sure if the light cruiser is worth it and what escort to go with the jackal or dirge or both? Any help would be appreciated thanks.

Scythes are really good.

The Tombship is very awesome as well.

Take the cheap escort to fill points.

The Shroud isn't so useful indeed.

Horizon is correct.

Tombship is amazing.
Scythes are well worth their points.
You'll need escorts to fill the point gaps.
Shrouds, look really cool, but are kinda meh to play.

When I played my Necrons I found the scythes to work very well. I liked the Tombship but always fretted about handing the game to somebody on a silver platter because they hulked it. I disagree on the Shrouds I found them to be a great support for the escorts. However, that could be due to the environment I played in and it was some time ago.
