Okay, so I thought up this list very late last night as a joke, so its actual effectiveness is going to be kinda suspect, but I figured y'all might like it conceptually before you poke a billion holes in it. Here goes.

Using the 9th Ed Necron Codex, I give you The Unholy Trinity.

The idea is that three massive, durable models might be enough to overwhelm enemy anti-tank and retain enough firepower to deal with them in the first turn, while also all being very handy in close combat. The dynasty traits aren't super-important, but nice to have on the Immortals and Monolith. The Nightbringer can operate independently, so I'll probably put him into Strategic Reserves and bring him out on the enemy board edge on Turn 2. The Silent King and Monolith each move onto the midfield objectives, while the Immortals and Praetorians have the range and speed respectively to be flexible enough to go where they need to be, depending on the game type and matchup.

The monolith cant move over the battlefield, unless its almost empty.

So I actually the bones if the list but a few suggestions.

First, the dynasty traits gets you almost nothing with this list as it will only effect the cryptek and immortals.

Second, the monolith is just not good and especially in this list. You could drop it and take any number of additional choices, especially infantry to get objectives.

Three durable models in the realm of Eradicators, Invader ATV, and Firestrike Serve-Turrets?
I'll opt for a horde Necron army atm.
