I've considered taking up a necron army and am just interested to hear peoples feedback on this 1850pt list I've whipped up.

It's been made pretty much on observations at a couple comps I've been to and after a read of the codex.

Elite:
5 x Deathmarks
Nightscythe Transport
195 Pts

A small unit has too less damage output.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/559026/6172158.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/559026/6172158.page GMT 1850 pt Necrons -Drop the Scarabs
-Drop the Doomscythe
-Add another Destroyer Lord
-Add another unit of Warriors in Scythe
-Increase Wraith units to 6 models
-Add Annihilation Barge #3 if points allow
-???

I'm not a fan of 10 warriors in scythes. For late game objective grabbing, 5 will do, particularly as you really want to keep them safe (and in the scythe) for most of the game.

Deathmarks really, really need a despairtek....which is very problematic for your list. Without a despairtek, you'll need more as Wuestenfux says. If you are only going to take 5 without a despairtek, I'd be more inclined just to deepstrike them rather than use the scythe. Save the scythe for something else (eg split a warrior squad into 2x5, but now each has a scythe).

I disagree re whip coils - 2 is good. Sure really dangerous, ID stuff hits at I1 usually, but why take the chance of letting the opponent attack first at all?

5 scarabs at this point level looks light. I'd suggest you swap the doom scythe for 3 spyders if you want to keep them. Always good to have MC running around.

Try and put an orb on the Destro Lord. Sure, you are only going to keep him alive, but if it works once it is worth it (particularly as all challenges are going to go to the Lord and he doesn't have an invul save).

hope something helps.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/559026/6173902.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/559026/6173902.page GMT Re:1850 pt Necrons
Good stuff

Upon looking over my list and your comments It did occur to me that the small deathmark squad in the scythe was a bit...yeah weird

So I've redone a list, taken out the deathmarks and put in another destroyer lord and reduced the warrior squads to 5 warriors each, which allowed me room to put another squad in!

I'm liking the look of this one more so, and again thanks for the feedback!

Don't see much use for the fabricator claws either- if your barges get penned they're probably dead or as good as anyway, just get a third Spyder instead.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/559026/6176209.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/559026/6176209.page GMT Re:1850 pt Necrons http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/559026/6179151.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/559026/6179151.page GMT Re:1850 pt Necrons
