6xScarabs - 90
Heavy Destroyer - 60

Heavy Support
Monolith - 200
A.Barge - 90
A.Barge - 90

Total - 1500pts

Alternatively can have gaze for C'tan and drop 2 warriors.
So the idea here is that 2 destructeks and a overlord go into the immortal squad and the other overlord and 2 destructeks go in one of the warrior squads. Looking for criticism and advice, the other models that I have to work with are 5xWarriors, 1xSpyder, 1xCryptek, 1xLord, 1xImmortal, 1xWraith. I am looking to expand my army to 1750 as well and intend on purchasing 3 more wraiths, so you can consider those as well. Also looking for advice on what to purchase next to best improve my army.

At 1500 points,, spending 260 points on 2 overlords is a waste of points if you're not going to take advantage of their most amazing staffs, the stormtek and the despair tek.

What other Necron models do you own so I can know what other bits and pieces you have available to you?

Whoops, saw your other post with all your models.. Id say you need to get some night scythes or ghost arks.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/553394/6068727.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/553394/6068727.page GMT 1500/1750pt Necron list Advice Appreciated
C'tan, sorry i love them but they suck donkeyballs, same as heavy destroyers, to much points for what they bring

you need better focus and protect your assets betters, they look like free kills, and your troops dont ahve mobility which is how necrons win.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/553394/6069040.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/553394/6069040.page GMT Re:1500/1750pt Necron list Advice Appreciated
Add another two wraiths, 3 with whip coils and the 3 standard with no guns (the pistols suck). Drop both your overlord and replace with a Destroyer Lord with MSS, Semp weave and maybe a res. orb. Then put the destroyer lord in the middle of the wraiths, a really good combo especially when the D.Lord comes with a WS as standard AND he's T6!

I'd drop 5 warriors and up your Immortals to 10 all with gauss cannons

Drop the C'Tan because they really do suck and get yourself 5 Deathmarks and stick a Despairtek with them, put them in a Nightscythe and drop them onto the battlefield when needed. I doubt you'll regret it especially when you activate the Hunters from Hyperapace rule

Not sure if what I've suggested takes you over 1500pts apologies if so]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/553394/6074623.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/553394/6074623.page GMT 1500/1750pt Necron list Advice Appreciated

I agree about dropping the C'tan shard. I really want to run one too, because they look awesome and have great powers, but they're just too fragile. If only their invuln save was a 3+...

However, I've been running a monolith recently and have had a lot of luck. I can't tell you how many of my opponents have freaked out when I pulled it out and realized they don't have enough high strength weapons to take it out. also, it will greatly improve your mobility. I've won several games by gating infantry on to obectives in the last round. You can use it to block los on your wraiths and scarabs for a turn or two as you run them up the board.

I'd combine your two warrior squads into 1 large 20 man squad, and give the lords orbs. It sucks to only have 2 scoring units, but it will increase your chances the units survive to score.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/553394/6075351.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/553394/6075351.page GMT 1500/1750pt Necron list Advice Appreciated A different approach would be Wraiths led by DL(s) and troops in NIght Scythes.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/553394/6075393.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/553394/6075393.page GMT 1500/1750pt Necron list Advice Appreciated

Well, the lists have too less mobility. There are fast moving units out there which can reach your front ranks in round 2. Not sure if you can keep these units at arm's length.

I'm assuming, by even posting this list, the OP doesn't feel like running a generic wraithwing list (which I can appreciate). That's why I like the monolith. It gives you mobility if you don't feel like running scyths. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/553394/6075464.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/553394/6075464.page GMT
