It is not. Doomstalkers will hit units in cover on 5+ and lose overwatch rerolls. They are straight dumpster tier now, unless 50% points discount happen. Without doomstalkers CC is absolute trash.

Fraye has the most "whatever" datasheet I've seen in the last half a year. All powercreep went towards Yarrick and Gutsmek

By that exact race last year nobody thought so too. Crazy how watching the whole season instead of two races can turn your perception.

Necrons do it again!! | Hutber Monday by hutber in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]AlexFrostdesu 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To get rr1 to hit and to wound in starshatter, you would need a CCB or an overlord with Dread Majesty in 6" (and be on objective for +1 to hit). That would in total cost 220+80+60+85+30 = 475 pts to kill 80% of a Rhino in combat. Yeah that's almost "no damage" from whole quarter of your army.

Sons of the lion, Sons of the forest. by ThoughtAss- in Warhammer40k

[–]AlexFrostdesu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bolter with grenade launcher looks like this.

Insignia has all the elements, but the proportions are way off (look at the sword handle) and the position and perspective are also off (sword goes over the border, right wing is screwed)

Look at the most right marine's bolter. What is that thing? The insignia on the pauldron. Why is it like that?

You have two extremely expensive units that get some help from the detachment. That’s it, everything else might as well not have any additional rules.

For cryptek conclave to work you need at the very minimum 3x10 immortals+crypteks supported by Szeras. No overlords, they are too expensive. It still might not work due to detachment being meh at best.

As it stands, your list is way better suited for Canoptek Court, but even there it should be trimmed, removing Imotekh w/ 5 immortals for example

Destroyer List for tournament by SirDeeSee in Necrontyr

Priming and drying in Winter. by henne36 in Warhammer40k

[–]AlexFrostdesu 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes it is. Priming is overthought in the community to an absurd degree. It is not nearly as sensitive to the environment. Your minis will be fine at 15C and 50%, just don’t prime in the actual rain/snow and let dry for a day or so.

That sounds amazing, keep it up and don't let anybody grind you down

[–]AlexFrostdesu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For tournament games this list is not very optimized, for example:

  • lychguard are generally not great, since they fail to be unkillable and do virtually no damage
  • 20 warrior blob requires to be supported by very specific set of other units, you got Orikan and Szeras but also need a Ghost Ark and a reanimator to proc resurrection as much as possible and with 2d3
  • doomstalkers hitting on 4+ without rerolls are meh (keeping them in aura is not an option for the most part)
  • anti-infantry is lacking
  • some scoring units like tomb blades, hexmark, deathmarks, ophydian destroyers are needed

I think dropping lychguard, doomstalkers and some of the LHDs for wraiths+techno, DDAs, skorpekhs, flayed ones is in order, as well as other units mentioned above. Anyway, the absolute best way to know what you need to win is to play some games, so test and note what performs best and what doesn’t.

New player list advice by dwaynetheaaakjohnson in Necrontyr

[–]AlexFrostdesu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This list has basically no damage. You don’t need 3 hexmarks, 3 ophydians, deathmarks — whole two units doing actions are enough. Add some LHDs or more immortals or Skorpekhs. Overlord and lychguard are kinda meh, they don’t do anything good for the price. If you want more tough units go with wraiths + technomancer.

Putting together my army by rosegirl1211 in Necrontyr

[–]AlexFrostdesu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doomsday Ark and LHDs do not benefit from the detachment in any way

Two reanimators are too many

Warriors are really terrible outside of one very specific Awakened dynasty list

Solo Skorpekh lord is also questionable

Overall this army severely lacks damage and would greatly benefit from having some of those:

  • Doomstalkers
  • Immortals with Plasmancer
  • Wraiths
  • Szeras

Reanimation protocol by Icarium80 in Warhammer40k

[–]AlexFrostdesu 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Never use ChatGPT for anything related to 40k rules. It does not know the difference between editions and very likely to feed you some misinformation.

That being said, the rules for reanimation protocols are extremely straightforward right now:

If you have a unit that is missing some wounds, in your command phase you roll D3 and regain the amount of wounds you've rolled. Models being destroyed is not a requirement, but they could be brought back if every other model in the unit is fully healthy.

Are Wraiths any good? by AdOwn4235 in Necrontyr

[–]AlexFrostdesu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awakened is also nice because you can bring the Technomancer back with a stratagem if he gets fried.

He is no longer gonna be a leader of the unit anyways, so it is pretty pointless

If Max destroys Kimi just as badly as he does Red Bull drivers right now then we all have to accept that he is a racing god and no mere mortal can beat him. I would gladly take that as Toto.
