Doing a 1000pt game with some friends and trying to decide which list is best.

List 1
Necron Patrol Detachment
Destroyer Lord
Cryptek
20 Necron Warriors
6 Immortals w/ Gauss
2 Destroyers + Heavy Destroyer
2 Destroyers + Heavy Destroyer
998pts

List 2
Necron Outrider Detachment
Destroyer Lord w/ Warscythe, Resurrection Orb
9 Triarch Praetorians
2 Destroyers + Heavy Destroyer
2 Destroyers + Heavy Destroyer
3 Wraiths
1001pts

List 2
Necron Outrider Detachment
Destroyer Lord w/ Warscythe, Resurrection Orb
9 Triarch Praetorians
2 Destroyers + Heavy Destroyer
2 Destroyers + Heavy Destroyer
3 Wraiths
1001pts

List 2
Necron Outrider Detachment
Destroyer Lord w/ Warscythe, Phylactery
8 Triarch Praetorians
3 Destroyers + Heavy Destroyer
3 Destroyers + Heavy Destroyer
3 Scarabs
1001pts

List 1 is pretty standard. Lists 2 and 3 are intended as fast lists, with every model moving at least 10".

Any thoughts on which one is best or suggestions for improvements?

Each will lose with hord army.
In first you can take tesla immortal for hord. Gauss are redundant to destroyers. 10 immortals will be better then 20 warriors witch die by morale.
In second or third you can take more scarabs or anihilation with tesla instead pretorians.
For 1000 pts all depends from your opponents army.

In the first list, if I took 2 units of 10 Immortals, would it then be worth switching out the Cryptek for an Overlord?

That's a shame - the praetorians were what I wanted to field.

Oh well, I'll see what I can squash in.

Cheers.

Field whatever unit/model you want. Having fun is more important then winning. If your playing with friends then just make up something fun to play with so both you and your friends have a good time.

What kind of list do you want to field?

Do you know what your up against?
