    Your Lychguard on foot may not survive long enough to have an impact on the battle. It may be better to switch them out for Praetorians instead for the mobility, but it's up to you.

    Agreed. With Lychguard, you should have at least 7 bodies when going on foot, and probably a shield too. Str5 Power weapons are nothing to sneeze at at all, and with a 4+ invuln, power weapons need 4 wounds to reliably put down one model.

    Eldar- 22/2/2
    Necrons- 4/2/0

    When you're playing against horde armies, you're going to need some blast weapons to take out their numbers. Your maximum range in your list is only 24'', and by the time you get in range, your opponent will likely be able to assault you. I know tryanids and orks don't have much that can take down AV 13, so I suggest you get a d-ark. It has 72'' range so you'll be able to place it in the back where it's safe and take out a good portion of your opponents troops.
    Also, with only three scarabs, they'll get eaten up pretty quickly before they can reach your opponent. Instead of the scarabs, I would just use those extra points to beef up your lords. (maybe add a tachyon arrow just for fun? )

    Imperial Guard: 3700pts Necrons: 2500pts (1915pts painted)

    There's actually 6 Scarabs, Scorcher. Minimum of 3 plus an additional 3, as he stated.

    It lacks a certain NIGHTBRINGER! But that's simply because I love the nightbringer powers so nvm, seems like a good list, though you might want te reconsider your troop options, cut here and there to fit ghost arks and warriors, you gonna like that way more than 5 immortals with tesla, believe me tactic = move only max 6" ever! and always shoot with the ghost arks, (you would be amazed what 5 longshots can do sometimes) but if you really like the immortals keep them, the list could work anyway. Still the nightbr... xD

    OK guys, it lists the EXTRA models added to the list, so it's the base number plus the number listed, so the immortals are in a squad of 10, the warriors are in a 20, and the scarabs are in a unit of 6. Just to clear it up, and thanks for suggestions of far, I'm thinking of getting a tomb blade to bring to 2000+ games, are they worth £40.00 or the points?
