yeah but in my experience 2k pnts of Necrons still are outnumbered vs most armies. save for maybe deamonhunters... and generally can only pull threw with a defensive castle and a bunch of destroyers with a last turn contest or something... maybe im just too noob tho That's how I win my games with them. Disable what can hurt the Monoliths, make a wall, teleport at the end of the game to snag the objectives. Kill points are a laugh though, particularly in this Mech heavy world we live in. Destroyers crave razorbacks. I wrote a tactica on Dakka, check it out if you feel like it. www.dakkadakka.com/wiki/en/Necron_Tactica

I read a lot of that kinda stuff. Just sucks all the good units are fast attack, lol. Been trying to get a wraith wing off the ground standard 9 wraith packhunt with a destroyer lord backing them up/suck up wounds on the way in. Just gotta get the right balance of the other stuff to deal wit mech and things that threaten my warriors. Perhaps somthing we could talk about at a differnt time.

I won a league at the GC with a 40 model 2k necron list.
Last Saturday they had a 2005pts tournament. I lost 3 Necron Warriors and 2 Tomb Spyders. Over the course of three games. And could not achieve any of the weird mission objectives.
Your Necron tactica isn't bad, btw, but I do have one piece of advice.
I have stopped running Necron Lords. I think you're better of cramming more firepower for the 200 points than having a Lord w/gear. Another squad of Warriors or 3 tomb spyders would give your army a bigger boost than the Lord w/veil + orb.
If you pair a spyder with each Destroyer unit, you'll be able to split them up and keep them in WBB range, plus have a unit that can easily take out 5-man combat squads or other small infantry units. If you bring another unit of Warriors, it's that much harder to phase you out and you've got one more chance to hold that objective.
My 2k league list looked like this:
Deceiver
10x Warriors 10x Warriors
5x Destroyers 5x Destroyers 4x Destroyers
Monolith Monolith 3x Tomb Spyder

So a standard destroyer wing list. No supprise there in it doing good.

I like the use of the Tomb Spyders there, Robpro. The WBB buff is overlooked a lot of the time.
I kind of prefer Scarabs and a small squad of Pariahs (they go nicely with either C'Tan and are easily hidden by the Monolith) but I can see how that list would be absolutely brutal.
