If you have to deal with a lot of TEQs (things with 2+ armor saves), bust out the Lychguard with warscythes. They aren't as "competitive" as sword and board, but once you get them into melee, they can eliminate most anything they go up against (assuming they survive to I2). The Canoptek Harvest and Destroyer Cult formations are our most competitive options if that matters to you.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/683696/8521572.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/683696/8521572.page GMT Necrons - Staple Units?

Orikan the Diviner
Tomb Blades in squads of 3-6]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/683696/8521599.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/683696/8521599.page GMT Re:Necrons - Staple Units?
If you play at "low" points, then a unit of Flayed Ones go a long way for cheap. They're tough, and put out waaay more attacks than their points are worth. Drop them down to hold an objective. Most people will want to ignore them because they can't shoot back, and they don't want to assault them because they're so points efficient at their assault role.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/683696/8521618.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/683696/8521618.page GMT Re:Necrons - Staple Units?

You want to be able to play the core of a Reclamation Legion. That should be a priority. My suggestion would be a couple of Doom Scythes [the flying transports?] and maybe a Ghost Ark.

Minor correction here: Night Scythes are the transports. Doom Scythes are the HS. The difference is basically whether you put the Death Ray on the bottom or the Wormhole Generator. Luckily, it's one of the few parts that will hold without gluing/magnetization, so they can be swapped out depending on you needs.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/683696/8521721.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/683696/8521721.page GMT Re:Necrons - Staple Units?

If you want to save money on Flayed Ones, get 2 boxes of Necron Warriors, cut their hands off, and attach trimmed down warscythes (get the bits from eBay) to their forearms. You can put them into running poses as well.

Here is a link to my Flayed Ones:

https://box.es/item/flayed-ones/P4GInCxLK5

At $36.25 per box of 12 warriors and roughly $6 for warscythe bits, you're looking at $78.50 + S&H for 24 converted Flayed Ones and 6 scarab bases.

vs

$180 + S&H for 20 regular nonconversion Flayed Ones.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/683696/8521765.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/683696/8521765.page GMT Necrons - Staple Units? Tomb Blades with particle weapons are great as are Wraiths. They are even better in a Decurion.
One Ghost Ark is fine too. I prefer Night Scytheses to bring my Warriors where i want them. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/683696/8521891.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/683696/8521891.page GMT Necrons - Staple Units?
