Hi, is this the July Throne of Skulls? Because if so, see you there. I think that you're probably going to need a 3rd troops choice, just so that it's possible to spread over another objective. The odds are with us getting 2 sieze ground missions so the likelyhood is that we're going to get at least 1 with 4 objectives in it.
To get the points, I might be tempted to drop the Doomsday Arks for 3 Annihilation Barges, it'll save you 80pts and give you a bit more flexibilty. I'd also probably drop the Tesseract Labyrinth off the Overlord. I also think that maybe 3 squads of Wraiths is a bit overkill. Maybe drop one and then add an additional Wraith into each of the other squads if you have the points, then you could squeeze in another 10-cron Immortals squad and another Lord with Res Orb to go with them.
Hope this is useful.

I'd drop one Ark and take 2 A. Barges plus another Immortal Squad.

Thanks for the input, unfortunately this will be for October ToS not July, just getting back into 40k and have yet to start collecting a new army, think I may be in trouble with the Mrs if I drop a couple of hundred on the new army then spend every waking hour getting it painted for July
I agree a 3rd troops choice would be good but am hesitant to drop an Ark for it, my list lacks AT as it is and I believe in doubling up on the good things so I don’t have to worry if one gets toasted. I could drop the wraith number for more troops. The Labyrinth on the overlord was because I had a spare 20pts any suggestion on what to swap this for?

Your list is pretty beefy, but how will you get your stuff in range?
With the exception of your Arks, everything else is 24" or cc and you'll get murdered on the way there.
Good thing about Necrons is Solar Pulse. It will prevent mass casualties up to when you get to optimum range.
This is what I would do:
Drop the Tesseract and take Mindshackle Scarabs. They will do more.
Some how get a third troops choice.
Don't drop the Wraiths. They are too good.
Consider taking Imotekh. He's not bad when taking a lot of Wraith.
