Is there any point in running more than Zahndrek in the Harvest/Cult list. If I throw Orikan or Obyron in with the Wraiths and then Teleport them, wouldn't that make them weaker since they're out of range of the Spyder.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/717407/9192565.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/717407/9192565.page GMT Destroyer Cult and Canoptek Harvest Decurion Independent Characters
You could add a second Destroyer Lord to keep up with the Harvest and spread out the Preferred Enemy.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/717407/9192581.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/717407/9192581.page GMT Destroyer Cult and Canoptek Harvest Decurion Independent Characters FAQ confirms that the Spyder only needs to be in range at the moment you activate the Subroutines. The effects last until your next turn even if the spyder is killed or the Wraiths move out of range.

But indeed Zahndrek is enough. With the Decurion, you don't have much need for superfluous characters, just the required ones will do.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/717407/9192604.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/717407/9192604.page GMT Destroyer Cult and Canoptek Harvest Decurion Independent Characters

Are you just asking about named characters or independent's in general?

I'm talking about the named characters that are used to make Deathstars.

Well that makes things quite a bit better. So really you only want to bring the other named characters if you are running something like Pylon-star or Lychstar?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/717407/9192732.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/717407/9192732.page GMT Destroyer Cult and Canoptek Harvest Decurion Independent Characters
You are better off with 2 units of 5+ Wraiths or Prets than a single Lych-Star that can be avoided or tarpitted]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/717407/9192789.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/717407/9192789.page GMT Destroyer Cult and Canoptek Harvest Decurion Independent Characters

Necron Deathstars are lame because none of them move very fast. Sure there's Veil, but you cannot charge afterwards

Indeed, I'd stay away from a Lych star since it's too slow even if it's veiled.
Wraiths have always been the way to go for me. Prets are too fragile. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/717407/9192893.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/717407/9192893.page GMT Destroyer Cult and Canoptek Harvest Decurion Independent Characters

Generally the list I'm looking for is 2 melee threats with shooty support, Warriors, Tomb Blades, Immortals, etc. Now I know their shooting isn't godly like Tau or Eldar but it's still good. I've got my Wraiths for one melee threat. Now I just need to figure out what else.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/717407/9192932.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/717407/9192932.page GMT Destroyer Cult and Canoptek Harvest Decurion Independent Characters (Their primary use is tarpitting. If you want to kill things in melee, there are better options).]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/717407/9193959.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/717407/9193959.page GMT Destroyer Cult and Canoptek Harvest Decurion Independent Characters
OP: How about having one unit of wraiths to handle heavy hitters and one unit of pistol pretorians to go after hordes? (not wasting your precious 3++ on those) ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/717407/9193980.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/717407/9193980.page GMT Destroyer Cult and Canoptek Harvest Decurion Independent Characters http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/717407/9194256.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/717407/9194256.page GMT Destroyer Cult and Canoptek Harvest Decurion Independent Characters

Just making sure, but you're aware Wraiths aren't really so much of a threat as they are a deterrent, right?

What is the best offensive (killing not tarpitting) melee unit for the Necrons?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/717407/9194904.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/717407/9194904.page GMT Destroyer Cult and Canoptek Harvest Decurion Independent Characters http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/717407/9194949.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/717407/9194949.page GMT
