Mathew Burgoon 1Mathew’s Necrons had a three-detachment setup featuring an Outrider led by a Chronomancer and a Command Barge. The Chronomancer allows you to buff a unit with re-rollable charges and a 5+ invulnerable save, while the Command Barge can give a unit +1 to hit and has an aura giving nearby units +1 to move and advance!

Elites bring in a Nightbringer Shard, a fantastic dense model that can demolish in melee and is hard to take out.

Fast Attacks bring in 9 Scarab Swarms to lock units up in melee and soak wounds, hopefully protecting other models in the army.

Closing out the first detachment is 6 Tomb Blades which are cheap model units that can help get in some chip damage just in case it’s needed.

The second detachment is a Vanguard led by a Technomancer, who can fly and heal units each turn thanks to his Cloak.

Elites bring in 12 Skorpekh Destroyers, which are fantastic melee threats with decent durability. There is also a Transcendent C’tan which is again a fantastic melee threat.

Mathew Burgoon 3

Closing out the list and third detachment is, of course, the Silent King. He is simply the best model in the Necron roster. he has it all. Decent shooting and melee, fantastic support abilities, and a durable statline. Everything this guy brings, you want in your Necron armies.
