Troops
Fast Attack
750pts exactly I chose the destroyer body for my lord because of the speed (same as jetbike) and survivability against 'instant death' (the +1 toughness makes him T6 and does count towards instant death calculations) Phase shifter - obvious - a 4+ inv. as well as a 'we'll be back' roll. Resurrection Orb - I chose this because it allows the lord to make a 'we'll be back' roll even from instant death (not a problem with destroyer body) and weapons that allow no save (power weapons in close combat). It also allows any necron unit that has a model within 6" of the lord to attempt 'we'll be back' rolls, also regardless of instant death or 'no save' CC weapons. Disruption fields (on the warriors) allow successful close combat hits on a vehicle to glance on the roll of a 6, so charging a unit of necrons into a stationary/slow moving vehicle would be (IMHO) a very effective tactic. I went for Destroyers instead of heavy destroyers mainly because
Anyway, that's it, comments welcome (flames/derogatory comments cheerfully ignored) :-) I'll be making lists for other points values as well and will post them when I can Ozlander

****Unless the Necrons work differently than other armies bikes, the
+1 Toughness is NOT used in determining instant death ex. A SM (T5)on a
bike is still insta-killed be a weapon with a S8

The wargear entry for the destroyer body clearly states that the +1
T *does* count towards instant death
[14] What?? . (4 Replies). FrancoisX[]. 4/26/2002 4:21 (5/12/2002 15:28)
For a mere 30 points, you get, +1T, no auto kill AND extra-movement? eacuh
of these advantages are more expensive taken individually in other armies!!!
(bike 35 points is just +1T and movement, salamander cape is 35 and it's
just no auto-kill, etc...) Who won't use this option? is there a counter
part? Or just put it in the main rule for the lord, don't pretend it's
an option when it is such an obvious choice (i mean that for the designers...)

Or just put it in the main rule for the lord, don't pretend it's an option when it is such an obvious choice (i mean that for the designers...) Its because the necrons have them. Gone are the days of chaos jetbikes and space marine monoliths. The simple fact is that not everyone can have something that is in one particular army. Space marines get bionics for only 10pts which can keep your commander around for an extra turn longer than that dark eldar archon. Same as that SM get terminator armour for a only 25 points, which gives a 2+ and a 5+ inv save. See what Im saying? 1 question - is the rules ppl are using from the old list or a preview
list cause I dont remember anything about a necron lord getting a destroyer.

15:28) the necron lord has 5 base toughness anyway so he can only be insta
killed by S10 weapons but if the strength is lower and he has a destroyer
body u count it as 6 toughness and it is allways 6 toughness when rolling
to wound

15:28) I see what you mean, but it's not quite correct, the +1 toughness
is really a base toughness modifier and thus a necron lord with destryer
body can't be instant killed by strenght 10 weapons, this is differant,
because the body is really part of the lord and not just a mount wich you
can be blown off.

body can't be instant killed by strenght 10 weapons, this is differant,
because the body is really part of the lord and not just a mount wich you
can be blown off.

Yup, a Wraithcannon will do it :) A Wraithcannon won't instakill a C'Tan tho... he isn't transported to the warp and just takes one wound instead. The Wraithcannon is specifically mentioned, but there are several other weapons that inflict instant death, like plague swords/knives, Abaddon's demon sword etc. Perhaps the Wraithcannon is singled out because the C'Tan can't actually go to the warp? (just guessing). If not, then some clarification with regards to other instant death weapons would be useful (iow do all weapons of that type just cause one wound, or is it just the Wraithcannon?) While I'd sure like to see an answer from someone that knows (mods,
studio) I won't be holding my breath, as I'm sure they have more important
things to do :)

WH40K rule book excerpt, page 53, column 1, paragraph 3: "If a creature is wounded by something that has a Strength value that
is double its Toughness or greater it is killed outright and immediately

This seems to state rather clearly that a Strength 8 weapon will 'insta-kill'a Toughness 4 model. Hope this helps, and good luck !

The necron 'bikes' do work differently as the bike and the necron ad
the same thing, and not detachable, thus the +1T is part of the necron,
hence All destroyers are true T5, and thus not instakilled by lascannons,
and the Necron Lord with a destroyer body is a true T6 and not instakiled
by anything at all. Only downside is that necron 'bikes' don't have any
weapondry on them like the twinlinked bolters on space marine bikes...but
that is a small price to pay...

It all looks good except one big thing, lose the disruption fields on
those raiders, radiers can already get a glance on a 6 with thier guass
flayers and Raiders truely suck at close combat so it is best to keep them
back and let them use their flayers to win over the enemy. Those points
used for the disruption fields could be used for many other things. But
I realy like the set up for the Lord, mine when I get him (still waiting

it 2 turns max after it hits the board.

Before making comments like that, please remember that phariahs cut through even invulnerable saves, have a stunning one themselves, and T5, so even w/out a teleport they are harder than terminators, worth 15 pts more. So when placed with other warriors, move and shoot v.v.powerful weapons (same as the immortals), and I would say that that makes them one of the hardest units in the game. So they don't get 'we'll be back', so what - neither will your opponent! Also, re. the monolith, 235 pts is more than reasonable than you might think when you consider that they are armour 14, even against dark/bright lances etc., is a skimmer that is not destroyed if its immobilised, and can carry a potentially UNLIMITED number of troops, which if more than one of these nasssty little babys is present, can come out of the other one! no more armour saves as my rhino goes up in flames methinks! Ok, so the more you pack in to them, the more chance you have of losing them, but I'll be taking 2 monoliths in a 2000 pt army (not beardy, just sensible insurance that you won't lose 750 pts of warriors!), and I don't think there is any cause to complain regarding the fact that they will be prime targets - they will be able to take a lot of punishment before they go down, and will draw fire away from the flayed ones/wraiths (/pariahs!) legging it along the battlefield already!!!!! No hard feelings though, I think that your analysis, given your knowlege
(I have the codex) is admirable, and I'd love to hear your thoughts.

Well I've got some old necrons; 10 Raiders, 1 Immortal and a few scarabs but I'm waiting one for money and my codex to arrive before I buy more. But I jsut wanted to know, someonw said that flayed ones are 18 each whihc seems low but to a nec player that is good. Also I heard that tomb spyders could fix the monoliths if they got immobilized or something and wanted to know if that was true. Plus those Pariahs are nasty, besides they are targets and cost more than msot other units and cna't be teleported or revived they are perfect. A few of them could literaly RIP a terminator or command squad in half in close combat because they allow no invulnerablity saves or armor saves meaning if they hit you, you DIE no questions asked. But one idea would be have the pariahs walk behind the giant monolith where they couldn't be shot at much then let your scarabs or the nasty flayed ones(which could come right out the front of the monolith) then have your pariahs run around from behind the monolith and finish off any enemies the flayed ones or scarabs may ahve problems with. --LordBolt--

Theres jsut a few probs with that, one th cost is going to be realy
high. The lord normaly is 100 but you are alowed to add 100 more and he
is pointless if you don't sot here is..
Total-2813(guess you could use it in realy big matches)
Lose that C'Tan and I guess you can still do 2500 point matches but also your 3 wraiths are one fast attack squad, your destroyers are another, and 10 scarabs are another squad (thats 3)so i don't know waht to do with the other 5 but then again you are over 2000 so it might not count unless the person you are playing realy cares. JUst wish my codex I ordered a week ago would get here, I got most of my information by just reading all these posts to find the numbers and stuff.

A lot of good points here, methinks, though remember that a monolith is a skimmer - can troops hide behind it like that (assume a flat battlefield? dunno off hand without checking...one point to note is that they would spend so long running round it that they would never get anywhere! (at least one 2 turns of mvmnt and 1 charge! Flayed ones aren't worth teleporting out of the monolith - they have some incredible infiltration rules already, so they should get into combat in the first turn. They are indeed a must (one squad that is) because of the fact that they cost the same as a warrior, forego their guns and replace them with xtra hard close combat weapons. For a squad that will hopefully spend the entire game in combat, that's a pretty good swap to me! oh and they can wear the skin of their fallen enemies and cause an effect similar to terror! I don't know about the tomb spyders fixing the monolith, but they can spawn a scarab swarm per turn (only do this if you have no choice, if this is all you do then the points cost isn't justified, though they are insanely hard in combat and can be upgraded quite significantly with a ranged weapon (particle whip off the top of my head?)), and they can allow warriors that have been left alone by their mates to get up again - a nasty surprise!!! cybersquig

Definately get more Immortals. They are some of the most powerful guys
we have. Personally I am also going heavily with the Wraiths. I am a big
fan of stealth-type stuff and hopefully they can be useful. the Monolith
look like fun but its points cost may be too much for what its worth; I
don't know.

Yeah more Immortals but another 2 destroyers couldn't hurt (well at
least not you). Also get some of those things that starts with a P and
have warsycthes and can take away all saves (and invunerable) but maybe
there more expensive with points then their capable of.

Getting more Immortals is good but you can't have many more destroyers and Wraiths because they are both Fast attacks and 3 destroyers is one Squad while I can't remember the wraiths but i think they are 2. Also those things that start with a P are Paraihs and are 38 points each so don't use to many but are very good at slaughtering stronge troops like Terminators at close rang and with a Lord equipped right you can teleport him and any units near by so considerably you could just teleport him and the pariahs right in front of some enemy elites and start an assault with them and just cut them into little pieces before they ever threaten your troops then just teleport them again and go kill another squad of something untill either your teleporting Lord dies or you lose to many Pariahs, to bad they cost a lot. --LordBolt--

Destroyers are 3-5 in a squad, wraiths are 1-3. Pariahs can't be teleported

THats really nice gaskhgullthrakamightygoffwarlordandleaderofthewaaaagghh!!, though you might like a different username! no, seriously though, wraiths are sweet, but take 1 less unit and spend the points on scarabs - the little blighters can perform better than you would imagine, and a unit of 10 is a very scary thing indeed! the only other thing, is to lose the destroyer body (though It looks really cool!) and take the cloak of shadows - deepstrike on the first turn?! with another unit?! and afterwards at will?!!?! yikes!"!!&$*&(^(*£)" cybersquig $%o (destroyer!)

Actually, Necron warrior units must contain 10 models as a minimum,
so 360 points is the minim troop choice cost for necrons :)

what? your in Aussie and you got the codex! here in NZ, I know two people
with the $350 (NZ) box sets, one the GW store, but they haven't got the
codex yet due to there limted supply of them, and yet you get them! damn
Australians, steal all our stuff, Pavlova, ......... sorry about the rant,
just ticks me off a little, that becuase you have the region management
in Australia, you get all the good stuff first. Models look damn nice though,
GW Wellington has got its army all painted and in the store window on display,
and damn, they look good. especially like the basic necron warriors, very
skelteal looking and evil.

[14] Any suggestions? . (4 Replies). Stilger[]. 4/26/2002 3:49 (5/6/2002 4:07) Hello all, I’ve played Necrons since they came out in second and have put together about 2,500 points worth of the army. I have always felt that even without the codex we were one of the strongest army’s in the games (nids never had a chance), and was worried that they would actually weaken the core troops with the release of the codex, well that didn’t happen but I’m left with a boggle. I will list the 2,000 point army I usually play below and ask for advice
on which units to add to it to make it more affective. Also, please keep
in mind any unit I add will result in the reduction of another unit, see
please tell me which unit I should remove.
HQ Lord – Veil of Darkness 160pts EL 10 Immortal – 280pts
Troops 10 Warriors - 180
FA
It comes out to exactly 2,000 points
Tactics:
What strategy’s would others recommend for this army, or this army plus any modifications you might suggest? Questions and Assumptions:
Do pariahs have a ranged attack? I keep hearing that they get some kind of gause blaster, but that warscythe looks like a two handed weapon. Thank you all for your time! Stilger Reply
