Anti-deathstar necrons?

[andalucien]

How about this as an approach against the seerstar/beaststar/screamerstar:

An army with

Imhotekh
Zandrekh
Obyron

2 Harbingers of Despair /w/ teleportation

3 units of 20 necron warriors

Coteaz (via inquisition)

............

With Coteaz and Imhotekh in the same list, you have about an 87% of going first (re-rollable 4+ to steal the initiative), unless you're playing against Orks.

So you go first most of the time, and when you do, you try 3 times to teleport a unit of 20 warriors within rapid fire range of the deathstar (before their buffs are up).  Let's say you'll succeed with 2 of those units.

Now you've got 80 bolter shots (plus maybe a bit more odds and ends) coming in at the unbuffed deathstar.  that's 54 hits.

VS screamer star:  27 wounds, 18 unsaved wounds, either kills all the screamers or some of the screamers and some of the heralds.

VS jetseer star/ beaststar:  36 wounds, that should be enough to pretty much neuter them a lot of the time?

Also, you've got Zandrekh to take away hit & run on "stars" that have h+r.

Could it work?

You could also add some spyders and scarabs to tie up both.  Take away hit and run from the seer star and tarpit it with scarabs.

I dont believe you can use both of their special abilities like this.

I've tried doing this in the past and was ruled that since they are not battlebrothers you cannot combine the abilities

[andalucien]

Hmm, I don't see what being battle brothers has to do with combining those 2 abilities.  But, fair enough.  Death stars win again.

There's always D weapons I suppose.
