Necrons place 2nd at a tournament with Silent King

[Reskin]

Necrons place 2nd at a tournament. Good to see some variety of units too.

 

You can find the article here.

That list is very interesting as many conversations I have seen have been dismissing the Skorpekh Lord as a choice.

 

-edit

 

Including the thread further down in this forum!

 

I really like that multiple units at least have the appearance of being decent options.

I wish there was a way to see what secondaries they chose. Curious if they've taken any of the Necron ones.

Plenty of Skorpekh Destroyers and 3 Lokhust Heavy Destroyers too. Very cool. Love to see his army too.

 

Of course the edition is early days, but looks like Necrons can do the business. 9th is about objectives and with Obscuring Terrain it's possible things are more balanced on the tournament scene.

I imagine he'd take the Necron specific secondary in which you score VPs if the warlord (Silent King) kills something.

Code of Combat? I was thinking that too. And its any noble too. 

 

I'm not convinced on the skorpekh for high end tournament play despite having six so i was surprised to see them.

Distraction Carnifex I'm betting. I'm considering a list that uses 6, the Nightbringer and 9 Scarabs. Which of those you target is a tough choice. ;)

Strange that they've elected to give themselves a 40pt discount on each of the skorpekh squads. They've pretty much taken a free extra cryptek. Almost certainly not intentional but these mistakes are coming up a lot. Seems people fall apart without an up to date battlescribe. Edited October 30, 2020 by Shas Oh Dear

Underpointed their squads?

The points cost for the Skorpekh squads is listed at 135 points for 5, they should be 175.

 

However after doing the math, the 965 points total is correct for actual points costs. As the displayed values added up are 885, 80 points short
