You dont even have to equip them up very hard and they will rip necrons to shreds and making them flee for lost combat resultion, leaving their dead behind getting no WBB even if he got a ress orb.

If he brings a deciver on 1000 pts he will have a ridiculous low phase out so you shoule be able to just mosh his ordinary duudes to bloody pulp.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/214341/328175.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/214341/328175.page GMT nids vs. necrons

Do they leave their dead behind? From the latest FAQ:
A Necron unit falls back, having been beaten in close combat by a unit with power weapons. However, there is a resurrection orb nearby. To keep things simple, when the casualties are suffered, assess whether they are in range of the resurrection orb. If they are, lay them down and move them with the unit. If they are not in range of the resurrection orb, remove them entirely. You will then know how many WBB rolls to make at the start of your next turn. The same logic applies if the Necrons fall back after taking shooting casualties.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/214341/328233.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/214341/328233.page GMT Re:nids vs. necrons

It's not that they leave their dead behind, but if you kill Necrons via a Sweeping Advance, they are removed from the field altogether, not simply die. This means no chance at ressurection, the entire squad is just gone. This is a great way to phase them out, just kill enough to make them run and overtake them with Genestealers. Their I6 makes this relatively easy, especially at 1000 points where things like multiple monoliths, overwhelming numbers of Warriors, and other huge annoyances don't really apply.

One slight suggestion, though. Instead of Acid Maws, use Feeder Tendrils. Re-rolling hits is better than re-rolling wounds, since it gives more opportunities to rend.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/214341/328338.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/214341/328338.page GMT Re:nids vs. necrons

If I understand correctly, rending has been moved to wounding part. Thus acid maw is good.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/214341/330183.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/214341/330183.page GMT
