Hi Guys.
Just thought Id share my latest Army.
This is the one I am entering in the bi-monthly competition.
I dont go to tournaments and I dont play this army just to smash noobs, so please dont all
be like "faggy necron power gamer" at me! LOL!
I bought and painted this army purely because it looks cool and was something different.
Also If I get a cocky opponent then I can teach him a lesson Mwahaha!
Please leave comments and feedback!

The army contains Imotekh, 6 squads of 5 Warriors, 5 deathmarks, 7 Nightscythes, 3 Tomb Blades and 3 Doomscythes.

Nice job on the necrons, not easy pulling off the weathered ceramic look.

holy (please do not swear) you're right

I dont really see ***** (it could be) being offensive in anyway although it is one of those words that has a different meaning to many people so i can see how it could be offensive. reminds me of the southpark episode with the "*****" (it is) motorbike riders.
Anyway, I'm so pleased with how this army has turned out and cant believe how much effort DIDNT go in to painting these guys. the whole rusty scheme was so amazingly easy to pull off with very little work, it just required some spray paint, a sponge, a toothbrush and some hairspray and took around an hour to do the entire army then all that was left was the metal and orange bits.

Nice paintjobs but I certainly wouldn't accept a game against that army. You may not wish to look at it as such, but that army is the pinnacle and definition of a power-gamer list as no one really has any viable way to deal with it and it's certainly not anything "different". The only reason you don't see Necron Flyer spam much yet is because most have yet to afford it, but they are gonna be the Draigowing/Parking Lots of 6e.

Big thumbs up on the paint jobs, looks great. And yeah, Necron painting is a big easy button haha.
Big facepalm for trying to say it's not a power-list. If you wanna run a power-list just do it, you're not gonna fool anyone with full-on flyer spam. That'd be like me walking around with a ski-mask on in black clothes at night, not because i'm a robber, but because I just like dressing that way and sneaking around. Possible? Yeah, I guess. Try to sell that story though.

I saw your Imotek online a while ago, and it was one of those inspiring moments that convinced me that I would never be good enough at painting my army

I love the rust concept for the necrons, and the white ceramic really pops without stealing from the rust. What an incredible idea, using a sponge. Nice ingenuity, sir. I think I would battle your army just for the glory of losing to something that beautiful.

Bravo.

Very nice paint job!

And the list?? If all you've got is some Tomb Blades on the board for your initial deployment, i wouldn't call it a power list...

Anyone with a pod full of reasonably shooty guys, who got the first turn, would beat you, before your shiny (sorry - rusty) airforce could even get on the board... Even with Night Fighting, you've got a problem against shooty lists with access to Searchlights or Blacksun Filters...

I totally agree with you on the lack of models on the board turn 1.
but then again i could deply inotek and some warriors if needed and the tomb blades are all seperate units too!
Plus im probably lucky in the sense that I play on a cityfight board 90% of the time that has heaps of good places to hide

I would have done a good tutorial but didnt take enough wip shots as most the army was painted in the 1st hour after building it
