I might be heading back to playing a Tournament after many years

This is 750pt Necrons

I have started reading the 9th ed rules and Codex. but need to read Chapter Approved Nephilim.

So I have put together a starter for 10 army...thoughts please.....I have some painted models but will need to make/paint some of the army to play it

I may not have the points quite right but they are close

Thoughts / suggestions please

HQ Chronomancer (1) 85 (Entropic Lance)
Troops Necron Warriors (10) 130 (10 Flayer)
Troops Necron Warriors (10) 130 (10 Reaper)
Transport Ghost Ark (1) 130 (Gauss Flayer Array)
Fast Attack Scarabs (5) 75 (no extras)
Fast Attack Tomb Blades (4) 98 (4 Shield Vanes, 2 Shadowloom )
Heavy Lokhust Heavy Destroyer (2) 100 (Heavy Gauss Cannon)

Total = 748

this is about 680 points.

The list could use information on the weapon choices etc.

You could pick Mephrit or custom dynasty.

Thankyou for the comment and highlighting the points error.

I spotted some of the issues but could not get it down to 680

I have amended the list to reflect what I have found

Chrono [75-85]
Warriors [260]
Ark [130]
Scarabs [75]
Blades [60-75]
2 Lokhusts [100]
700-725 it seems

I sometimes take an single invul for the Blades. (defender allocates the hits)

If you don't have more models you can get 3+/5++ on every single Blade.

thanks

I have now managed to update the list

Think I have one obvious option to remove the ARK and have a further 10 Warriors, or some Immortals to sit at the back and hold an objective, which then give smore points to play with other units.

Do you think the Ark is worth it for the mobility ?

Siegler played Ark at 145 points to hold objectives (custom dynasty). So it should be good now too.

The Ghost Ark shoots like 5 warriors.

I would cut the scarabs and 1 shield vane to get 80 points for something else. But it's close

How come you do not like Scarabs...they seem to feature in most armies

I guess I prefer half a skorpekh destroyer. even though that's 5 wounds less.
