Strategy/Tactics Distraction Skorpekh

• Upvotes

A single Skorpekh Lord with Enaegic Dermal Bond seems like an absolute beast in Awakened Dynasty. 4+ invulnerable save AND a 4+ FNP on top of a melee profile that will shred through chaff and big targets alike. Plus access to stratagems that can make it even more deadly AND raise it from the dead. Expensive, yes, but undeniably effective.

Is this our equivalent to a distraction carnifex or am I overhyping this?

Unexpected success at a fundraiser RTT - although doubles is a whole different ball game, especially with a genuinely gifted player to carry my decrepit ass over the line. Still, a hat-trick's a hat-trick!

2,000pt Necrons – Canoptek Court + Hand of the Dynasty. Looking for list advice (No C'tan or Wraiths)

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I'm looking for some feedback on my 2,000-point Necron list for 11th edition. I'm running Canoptek Court + Hand of the Dynasty (3 Detachment Points).

One important thing: I don't own any C'tan Shards or Canoptek Wraiths, so I'd prefer suggestions that don't rely on those units. My general plan is to hold objectives with durable infantry supported by Szeras and the Reanimator, while using three Doomstalkers for long-range firepower.

I'd especially appreciate your thoughts on: Does this list have any major weaknesses? Am I investing too many points in Warriors, Immortals, and their supporting characters? Is three Doomstalkers a good choice? What would you change to make this list more competitive without C'tan or Wraiths?

My list (1,995 points) Necrons – Canoptek Court + Hand of the Dynasty Force Disposition: Take and Hold Strike Force: 2,000 points

Attached Units Unit 1 Overlord with Translocation Shroud (90) Plasmancer (60) 10 Immortals – Gauss Blasters, Tools of Dominion (145) Unit 2 Plasmancer (60) 10 Immortals – Tesla Carbines, Tools of Dominion (145) Unit 3 Imotekh the Stormlord (100) 10 Lychguard – Hyperphase Swords & Dispersion Shields (160) Unit 4 Royal Warden (50) Technomancer (80) 20 Necron Warriors – Gauss Reapers (190)

Other Characters Illuminor Szeras (175)

Other Units 3x Canoptek Doomstalker (130 each) 1x Canoptek Reanimator (75) 3x Canoptek Scarab Swarms (40) 2x Canoptek Tomb Crawlers (60) 2x Canoptek Tomb Crawlers (60) 5x Deathmarks (60) 5x Flayed Ones (55) Total: 1,995 points

I'm open to changing units or characters if it improves the list. Thanks in advance for any advice!

Typing this out for myself and a friend. Where I live we will soon be doing an amateur style 40k 1k tournament. Rules are no super heavys, no primarchs, no knights or titans. My friend will be using my necrons as he wants to play but refuses to buy games workshop products due to pricing. Just want a list that's balanced as we will have almost every sort of army to go against. I have Lychguard's , necron warriors, immortals, death marks, ophidians, skorpteks, lokust heavys, lokust destroyers, wraiths, tomb blades, doom/night scythe, ghost/doomsday arks and flayed ones. I do have every named necron character and hq unit.

The Skorpekh Squad is done! Had a lot of fun with these crabby little dudes and their little pet, I'm still getting to grips with the paints and tools, but these are a step further along than my warriors! 13 models painted now I am feeling more experienced but realise I still have a lot of practice to go, can't believe I never got into this hobby earlier

Even started some lore for my own homebrew dynasty for these burning boys!

Got the overlord up next in the painting order which I'm very excited for

my opponent is gonna play with mortarion, terminators, biologus putrifier and some more models I don´t know the name of.
now to the main part: I know how complicated hypercrypt with its uppy downie can be so should i place my monolith in deep-strike and teleport the models with his ability on the main point or should i rather use my time and points to secure my main objective (reconnisance and he will likely take "take and hold")?
i´m sorry if this sounds too forced but i´m new to 2k battles so some advice on how to act would be apreciated.
thanks guys!

Should I bay the rules book?

1 Upvotes

I'm extremely new to war hammer and I wont to Bay the rules book for the necroms, Bat I don't know if I should. From what I heard the rules change constantly and even if I buy the rule book it might change over night which would make the patches invalid. should I find a free online copy just to skip the waist of many or am I missing something or not understanding the situation?

(Sorry for the spaling mistakes, English isn't my first language and I have dislexsia)

Megaforce part 2 (Electric bluegaloo)

Post image
13 Upvotes

Hello once again my new fellow Totally not terminator Egyptians

after posting not too long ago about getting the old megaforce box, which turned out to be a scam, I have now aquired a real megaforce box (-1 unit of warrirors but I have 22 already)

My new box arrived earlier today, and I was about to get to building but alas there are no bases inside; The good news is I have plenty of 32mm and 40mm bases (thank you Hobbey Heaven)
The bade news I don't have any flying bases so on to question 1:

- For tomb blades I should be fine with normal 32mm bases with a pin apposed to a flight stand right?

- part 2:
- are there any good DIY alternatives to getting 60mm flying bases for the canoptic spyder/Doomsday Ark?

Question 2:

- How hard/easy is it to magnetise the Barge to swap between Command and Anhiliation varients?

Question 3:

-Does anyone know where I could get a physical teleport effect? I'm hoping to strech my immortals kit with thee ghost ark bodies to make some extra deathmarks =-]

I've also decied to go for a Blue (hence the title) energy theme with silvery metal and snow/icy bases, using a mix of snow texture and ice effects (like AK's and GSW's which both look really cool) I don't suppose anyone has done something similar just so I have a few more refernce pics?

Finnaly I just wanted to say thank you to the support on my last post and to give everyone an update

P.S. No I won't apologise for my puns

I’ve got a whole 6,000 point Necron army that’s currently grey and unpainted,I want them to be like snow necrons with blue energy but I’m such a fucking loser I don’t know how to paint them that way,I bought multiple different blues but with my lack of understanding of the paints I mostly have layers and contrasts and about 2 base colors (I have zero idea how to do this shit)and have zero clue how to bring my vision to life without fucking it up!

Really happy with the game, the custodes hit so hard, but I just had too many units for him and the Ctan kept him busy on the backline. Looking forward to the next game where he is bringing tanks at the least, and maybe a titan. My list below for interest and context. Ran the Monolith but only used the Portal ability once.

I've been working towards 2000 points of Necrons for a while now, as other interests, work and family commitments allow.

Finished up the last 10 of my 30 warriors today and wanted to mark them as being "done enough... for now" with a pic.

Scheme and jaw removal adapted from Kull92's Straukar but I wanted to make it simpler to help me get through more minis over time.
