I second this Chris, two units that are this deadly in combat land in front of your lines is going to cause nightmares to gun lines! You can pen Eldar in with this, especially if you run after deep striking to make the footprint as large as possible, you will be assaulting turn2 or 3...

Cheers guys, might consider that Nick, would need to find another 15 pts from somewhere though...maybe drop warscythe on one overlord, hmmm.
Matt, the list was very similar although I have replaced a night scythe with a ghost ark - more shooting, one flyer is prob going to get wasted by intercept like in my game against you and have the veil to deepstrike the lychguard squad anywhere - can do this turn 1 so faster but less reliable than the night scythe, but He Who Dares... Since I no longer needed Zahndrek to make sure the flyer came on turn 2, I've dropped him for a basic lord to give more warscythe attacks and another res orb to keep the unit alive another turn.

I wouldn't advocate a drop in Warscythes, they are lethal!
The Chronometron.. what does that do?

5++ save against shooting for the unit
RE: Caledonian Revolutions 2015 - jaqenhgar - 24-06-2015
OK so list now looks like this if I put Obyron in:
PLAYER: Chris Rogers
ALLIANCE LEVEL: None – Single Detachment
NECRON DECURION DETACHMENT (Codex Necrons)
FORMATION: RECLAMATION LEGION (Codex Necrons)
HQ1: Overlord (80): warscythe (20); resurrection orb (25) [125] [WARLORD]
ELITE1: 8 Lychguard (125 + 325): warscythes (free) [200]
ELITE2: 8 Lychguard (125 + 325): warscythes (free) [200]
TROOP1: 10 Warriors (130): Transport 1 [130]
TROOP2: 10 Warriors (130): Transport 2 [130]
TROOP3: 5 Immortals (85): gauss blasters (free) [85]
FA1: 3 Tomb Blades (54): gauss blasters (free) [54]
Transport 1: Ghost Ark [105]
Transport 2: Ghost Ark [105]
FORMATION: CANOPTEK HARVEST: Codex Necrons
FA1: 6 Canoptek Wraiths (120 + 340): 5 whip coils (53) [255]
FA2: 3 Canoptek Scarabs [60]
HS1: Canoptek Spyder [50]
FORMATION: ROYAL COURT: Codex Necrons
HQ1: Overlord (80): warscythe (20); resurrection orb (25); veil of darkness (25) [150]
HQ2: Varguard Obyron [120]
HQ3: Cryptek (65): solar staff (15) [80]
TOTAL: 1849pts
Have lost lord with res orb and ws, the chronometron and nebuloscopes off the tomb blades to pay for obyron, switched solar staff to the cryptek. Will I miss the chronometron and the res orb off the dropped lord? Just feel like I might need a 5++ save on a unit but guess you can't have everything.
If there are wraithguard with d scythes I think i am just going to have to reserve both units and hope i come on after them, or spread out as much as poss?

RE: Caledonian Revolutions 2015 - Embolden - 24-06-2015
Looks great Chris!
JJ/Will any changes to your lists? Or already submitted them?
Nick, I really like this list, the only change I'd consider is somehow getting Zahndrekh.. probably dropping the Nightmare Shroud Overlord, but you lose a Res Orb... which will be important. Its a tough one. But I think at this stage its probably worth settling on this list and playtesting if you can.
I've just submitted this list:

Guardian Hosts: Windrider Host:
HQ1 Farseer (100) Skyrunner (15) Singing Spear (5) = [120]
HQ2 Warlock (35) Skyrunner (15) = (50)
Troop1: 4 Windriders (68) 4 Scatter Lasers (40) = [108]
Troop2: 4 Windriders (68) 4 Scatter Lasers (40) = [108]
Troop3: 4 Windriders (68) 4 Scatter Lasers (40) = [108]

Cool, what does Baharroth do Rob?
Lychguard are great Nick, and 8 is prob enough in one unit.
