Triarch Praetorians WIP

I decided to go with Triarch with war scythes.  I like the way the shaded blue power weapon portions stand out against the green. Unfortunately I forgot to paint the other side of the weapons when I was batch painting the lychguard, so I have to go back and do that before I can complete the staff. When I was painting the death marks and was doing the red eye/sensor thing, I went ahead and painted the red sensor on these guys as well.  These guys were almost painted by mistake. It was like the excess painting from other units spilled over and I realized that I had nearly completed a unit without thinking about it.

The 40k question. Will I field these? Eh, maybe. I've been knocking around the following list idea for a 2k list.  I am thinking primarily NOVA format. Basically I want to hold two or three objectives, and let my arks contest of they survive to do so.

• Overlord WS orb  //middle objective
• cryptic tremor staff //middle objective
• cryptic tremorstaff //objective 2
• cryptic tremorstaff //objective 2
• cryptic meltastaff //objective 2
• cryptic meltastaff //objective 1
• lord WS orb //objective 1
• 
  
• 4 9 man necron squads
• 4 ghost arks //one at objective 1, one at objective 2, one at the middle objective, one floater
• 2 10 base scarabs //one at objective 1, one goes for the middle objective
• 1 3 base scarabs //hangs out near least threatened objective according to setup
• 1 spyder gloom //grey knight defense objective 1 limited scarab regen
• 1 spyder gloom //grey knight defense objective 2 limited scarab regen
• C'tan with writhing world scape hangs out near most threatened base for late game suicide attack

There are three objectives that the nova open focuses on, objectives, table quarters, and kill points.  They get swapped around depending on the mission, but an army needs to do well in all three to succeed. I believe if I can slow game time down, and make it difficult for the enemy to get to me, I can contest 2 of the remaining three objectives late game using my arks. Eventually my opponent will get to me, which is where a load firepower should help. I think I just need to avoid early assault to give myself time to shoot. The scarabs and the C'Tan function as suicide troops if my world shaking difficult terrain does not work. Gloom Spyders provide anti-grey knight defense, with scarabs as a carpet moving forward providing distance threat.


just an idea....
