The list is designed to buy time and shoot you to death. Basically you WANT to go second (shocking isn't it) After you see how the enemy deploy react by castleing up in a corner. While the enemy tries to advance turbo boost a ring of 1 scarab unit forward so that they're 1" from multiple enemy units spread them out so that each models is 2" apart. The enemy (assuming not jump infantry, jetbikes or tanks) is now stuck behind your wall and with an effective 2+ cover save and 3 wounds shooting is not going to get the job done. So the enemy can't advance for a turn while your chipping away at him with 50 warriors and 18 immortals not to mention 3 particle whips. So he has to charge. Congrats you've wasted a turn of the enemy's. Repeat 3x for 3 units of scrabs congrats bottom of turn 3 the enemy is 6" out of his deployment zone! Next turn the enemy will run as fast as possible and hit a wall of 3 monoliths... If he can get past this wall it's already turn 5 and most likely you'll be out of time by now. and you can just set up a final ring of 2 warrior squads 2 warriors deep so he can't charge everything at once. Then teleport to OBJ's.

What do you think.

not to mention 1 lord at 2.5k is kind of lacking]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/225453/491096.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/225453/491096.page GMT
Everyone knows that monoliths are good, but a single solid multi-charge guts this army bad.

I'd have to see it played, it seems like it 'could' be resiliant if you can teleport away enough to keep units spread out, but the shooting just doesnt seem that scary to me, and you've got NO hth ability.

First glance I dont see any power in this list...other than the monoliths.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/225453/491100.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/225453/491100.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/225453/491110.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/225453/491110.page GMT
Isn't all Necron powerbuilds based around multiple Monoliths? I know that Kevin Kirby's winning army from last year's Ard Boyz had multiple monoliths, but don't know what else was in the list.

As for the monoliths being dropped, if you run the math, Vindicators only have an 11% chance per shot of destroying a monolith. The only thing that is going to be able to drop that many monoliths reliably is 9 broadsides.

I am not saying that this list is amazing, but I have tested the concept and it works. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/225453/491173.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/225453/491173.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/225453/491187.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/225453/491187.page GMT

I think you should drop a warrior squad and add a additional Lord (Res).
this will allow you to split your forces as they move around terrain pieces without having the clump them.
clumping is murder any high strength pie plates make the metal undead sad (don't forget, your list may fight other monoliths)
setting up your phalanx with 8 spokes to the wheel gives your opponent too much of a target

also in regards to demons (and any drop army)
the extra lord will let you spread further, thus help you control where the demon player can drop units ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/225453/492686.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/225453/492686.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/225453/493190.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/225453/493190.page GMT
