Hello everyone!
I'll be attending a tournament in about 3 weeks and will be finishing up my Necron army for that. Since I am still very new to the Necrons (and 6th Ed 40k in general, really), I am looking for some hints and tips from you 40k-overlords.
Here's the list I have in mind now:
HQ:
Overlord (warlord) - 240p
-Warscythe
-Mindshackle Scarabs
-Phase Shifter
-Command Barge
Destroyer Lord - 160p
-Mindshackle Scarabs
-Sempiternal Weave
Troops:
10 Immortals - 170p
-Gauss Blasters
10 Immortals - 170p
-Tesla Carbines
5 Immortals - 85p
-Tesla Carbines
Night Scythe - 100p
5 Immortals - 85p
-Tesla Carbines
Night Scythe - 100p
Fast Attack:
5 Wraiths - 205p
-3 Whip Coils
5 Scarab Swarms - 75p
3 Tomb Blades - 90p
-3 Particle Beamers
Heavy Support:
Annihilation Barge - 90p
Annihilation Barge - 90p
Annihilation Barge - 90p
So this is my list as it stands. There is reasoning behind a few of the more unusual choices in there; I use solely Immortals as troops as I just don't really like the Warrior models and do quite like the Immortals.
Same reasoning behind the Tomb Blades, they probably aren't very good, but the miniatures are absolutely brilliant.
Another option I had in mind is trading the Command Barge on the Overlord for a Veiltek to teleport a 10 man Immortal unit around the field if needed. But I then wonder where I have to put the Overlord as he's quite expencive to not do anything in a shooting unit, but I don't really want to get into CC with Immortals if I don't have to.
Any hints, tips, tricks and advise is more than welcome!
