First necron list 1500

[hektorreborn]

So I just finished up my new necron army and was wondering how this list would work out..

Overlord
Scythe
Weave
Orb

Overlord
Scyth
Weave
Orb
Mindshackle scarabs

Warriors x20

Warriors x20

Warriors x20

Warriors x20

Scarabs x5

Scarabs x5

So what do you guys think? I got all these models off ebay for less than $120 U.S so its not optimized or anything but still should be fun to play.

I figure terminators are going to hurt, but i should have vehicles covered by scarab swarms and anything lighter covered through the sheer number of gauss rifle shooting. Not really sure what to take on the lords, i just figured the Warscyth would let them bust up dreads and take out terminators and the orbs will keep my warriors up. Any tactical advice or changes to the list are welcome!

Just remember that your warriors can still hurt heavy tanks. One thing I've noticed is that necron players forget that Gauss guns can still glance anything on 6's, so a group of 20 warriors is more than able to rough up a Leman Russ. Also look into Imotechk.

I've found mindshackle scarabs to not be worth it. However this was in 5th edition...

Possibly think about dropping the second Overlord, and see if you can work in a Royal Court with 3 Lords with Orbs to buff your remaining Warrior squads' resurrection rolls?

[hektorreborn]

That actually works, much better. I dropped a scarab, an overlord and the increased armor save on the other obverlord to take 3 orb carrying lords so each unit has one.

Sounds like you've got a solid base! When you add in Ghost Arks to the Warrior blobs, they should be really hard to kill off! Or at least that's my theory.

Thanks for the help! Im really excited to try something a little different from guard and my csm!

[Trooper One-Nine-Seven-Four]

You're welcome. Hope you have fun with them. I've had fun in the few games I managed to get in during the closing days of 5th edition. Really interested to see how they'll play in 6th...
