Warhammer 40k necron 1k army?

Question

Does this sample necron army add up to 1000 points or below?

*necron lord

*5x Immortals

*3xWraiths

*3x heavy destoryers

*3x destroyers

*12 warriors

So does this add up to 1000 points or below???

Answer 1

Assuming no upgrades or additions, that adds up to 924 points.  However - as has already been observed - it's not a legal army, which requires at least two Troops choices.

Apart from anything else, 5th Edition rules are going to make having multiple troops choices absolutely vital to victory, as it's all going to be about objectives, and objectives will only be able to be claimed by Troops choices.

So with this army, your opponent would need to kill six warriors to win or at least draw (as a unit has to be above half-strength to count as a scoring unit).

I'd recommend dropping the heavy destroyers and going for a second unit of warriors.  This would make an army worth 945 points, with room to buy that vital Resurrection Orb for the Lord (always take a Resurrection Orb).

Oh, and you really should buy the Codex if you plan to play the game.

Answer 2

Do you have a copy of the codex?

I hate to break it to you but that list would not be legal if your playing standard missions (pretty much all games of 40k).

You need 1 HQ and two troops min. You have Just 1 troop choice.  It takes 10 warriors to form 1 unit.  But, as to your question assuming you have a basic HQ no upgrades.

100+140+123+195+150+216 = 924 point Necron Army

Good start though.  Just add more warriors as they will be your friend.  You want things with the "Necron" special rule to help prevent phase out once you start casualties.  Feel free to email me if you have any other questions.  Just put in the subject field "Necron question"
