Orks are probably the army least affected by Necron strengths. Night fighting? Who cares? Orks are all about cc anyway. Scarabs? Like scarabs are a threat. Normal BOLTERS can take down our trukks. We have Armor 6+ on troops anyway. <br /><br />Any really, we can grot-screen if we want to stop scarabs (We get to shoot through them and so what if you get a 4+ cover...necron armor is already 4+. Even your best general gets no steal init vs us.

This gives your tek's easy placement anywhere around this 3" diameter Warrior bubble. Great for placing the flamers in just the right spot to make up for bad DS rolls. To close to the enemy place them on a side. To far away place them on the outer ring for that extra reach. With their low Ld and Ap 1 orks just fry with double flamer placement. (Also good against Long Fangs, Devs, Oblits, etc.)Taohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00116249125068151192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4349292176380807894.post-22681096574723324572012-01-31T11:17:28.259-06:002012-01-31T11:17:28.259-06:00Brent

I had a pretty good record against them with a Destroyer fleet army last edition, but now that Destroyers ain't so great, I plan to try Annihilation barges backed up by Ghost Ark/Warrior fire to thin out their foot numbers. <br /><br />If I can ever finish the damn Ghost Arks, that is. Those things take FOREVER to paint....Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04264386981291406144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4349292176380807894.post-40897650066486818882012-01-31T09:37:17.548-06:002012-01-31T09:37:17.548-06:00It is beatable you just have to have the right fir...It is beatable you just have to have the right fire support. Annihilation barges for starter, a few heavy destroyers and commit yourself better with your wraiths.<br /><br />Additionally use your veil cryptics with immortals rather than warriors and watch them shine!Paul Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02211371590525331090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4349292176380807894.post-82052816510331090222012-01-31T07:43:11.726-06:002012-01-31T07:43:11.726-06:00Been working on my Necron lists as well, and one o...Been working on my Necron lists as well, and one of the big match-up issues I see is a Battle Wagon and/or Nob Biker list as being a potential horrendous match-up. Even with Veils, which is what I am also looking at, you really can't escape the 28 inch charge range afforded by a Battlewagon + Ghaz. <br /><br />It's somewhat ironic because Battlewagon Orks crushed the old Necron book too. :PNeil Gilstraphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07650727851487045304noreply@blogger.com
