Hi, I don't know if this is the right spot for this question. I'm sort of new to warhammer (I played way back in seventh edition) and had my first eighth edition game the other night with another female.

I just feel like she wasn't playing quite correctly but I don't really know. She had a blood angel army including a tank, and every time she used her tank she shot with ALL of its guns. But with my stalker for example (necrons) I could only use one gun. Her tank practically cleared the table! Does my army just stuck that bad compared to hers? Or should she have only used one gun also?

Wrong area, but theStalker has a special rule; its not that it sucks. Any model can shoot with all of its guns, except I believe infantry have to pick which gun they shoot with.

A model can fire with all its guns. INFANTRY armed with a gun and a pistol have to shoot one or the other.
Tau battlesuits for example are brimming with an array of weapons and can shoot them all.
If a model has a weapon with multiple profiles/firing modes, it has to choose one. For example a plasma gun can be fired normal or in over charge, not both.
A combi weapon however such as a combi melta has a special rule where it can fire it's bolt weapon profile as well as its melta profile but at -1 to hit rolls.

You stalker If i recall has it's focused shot mode and it's dispersed mode so can only fire one of those. If it had additional weapons, it could fire those as well.

A doomsday ark has it's doomsday beam of deathness that can fire on low or high setting, also it has a couple of gauss arrays which means it can fire those as well.

Your friends tank is armed with several different guns all with seperate profiles and she can therefore go to town.

Necrons aren't in the most fantastic of places at the moment- especially now with the snowflakes getting their latest codex and models update.

on the forum. Obviously

Yeah, the stalker only ever has 1 gun. The predator (I'm assuming its that) has like 3 guns.

Necrons have a problem with damage output compared to other armies. Its why most lists tend to have destroyers, Doomsday Arks and/or gauss tomb blades; those units can actually deal some damage.

What I have
~4100
~1660
