Hello All,
Long time article lurker that finally decided to register and slowly involve myself back into the game. I never played a lot of 40k in the last 5 years, 6th included and I know that my necron generalship is a little rusty. That said, any comments, suggestions, or banter you might have for me and my list would be greatly appreciated. I'm running a necron teleport/veil list because it seems like it would be a lot of fun zipping across the board or calling in a massive deep strike. I know its not the most competitive list out there but feel free to be as bluntly honest as you would like. Thanks in advance for the help.
HQ
NECRON NEMESOR ZAHNDREKH
Because I have Obryon I generally use him as teleport beacon. He can attach to any of my troop choices depending on the opponent. Generally though, he will hang out with a despair cryptek with the veil of darkness.
VARGARD OBYRON
I really like the idea of teleporting around the board and concentrating my fire in unexpected ways. Obyron's ghost walk mantle and Vargard duty allows for accurate deep strikes. Depending on whether Zahndrekh is in Night scythe or not, obyron will either be in the big unit of warriors or one of the immortal units.
CRYPTEK # 1: Harbinger of Despair
Equipment: Abyssal Staff, Veil
In case I want Zahndrekh to teleport with the larger unit or warriors or one of the immortal units
CRYPTEK # 2: Harbinger of Despair
Equipment: Abyssal Staff
He's going to hang out with the Deathmarks in the night scythe. Its my understanding that deathmarks can still mark a target when they emerge from the flyer and I desperately need something that negates 2+ armor saves.
CRYPTEK # 3: Harbinger of Storm
Tank hunter, will hang out with Obyron or the Night Scythe
CRYPTEK # 3: Harbinger of Storm
Tank hunter, will hang out with Obyron or the Night Scythe
HQ TOTAL: 460
ELITES
5 DEATHMARKS
Equipment: Synaptic disintegrator, deep strike, ethereal interception, hunters from hyperspace
Transport: Night Scythe
ELITE TOTAL: 195
TROOPS
10 NECRON IMMORTALS
Equipment: Gauss Blaster
Because they will likely be teleporting close to enemy troops and tanks I choose Gauss. I bought two units in case my opponent has an abundance of AP4 weapons or has a lot of models with 4+ armor saves.
10 NECRON IMMORTALS
Equipment: Gauss Blaster
See above.
15 NECRON WARRIORS
Equipment: Gauss Flayer
Big block of warriors in case I need a lot of shots, or I need an intractable unit in a fortified position. Can be a good tank hunter or a horde killer with a veil.
5 NECRON WARRIORS
Equipment: Gauss Flayer
Transport: Night Scythe
Can either move on its own or support the large block of warriors. With all the gauss shots from the unit and the transport it could be a last minute objective grabber or suicidal tank killer with a storm-tek.
TOTAL: 700
FAST ATTACK:
6 CANOPTEK WRAITHS
Equipment: 1x whip coil, 1x, particle caster
My heavy hitter close combat unit. Should the unit deep strike in they can go for some rear armor on a light vehicle.
TOTAL: 225
HEAVY SUPPORT
ANNIHILATION BARGE #1
Equipment: Twin-linked Tesla Destructor, Tesla Cannon, Quantum Shielding, Living Metal
Horde and flyer control. Will support the fast moving infantry
ANNIHILATION BARGE #2
Equipment: Twin-linked Tesla Destructor, Tesla Cannon, Quantum Shielding, Living Metal
same as above
ANNIHILATION BARGE #3
Equipment: Twin-linked Tesla Destructor, Tesla Cannon, Quantum Shielding, Living Metal
same as above
HEAVY TOTAL: 270
GRAND TOTAL: 1850
