Warhammer 40,000 - I once more seek defeat! This time, I face the Necrons!

Last night I posted about the outcome of my watch against the Drukhari. Even though their winrates are not high in tournaments I feel that it is only a matter of time before the players learn HOW to play them in deadly ways.

So I decided to try find myself another opponent that I could test my army against. I have a match against Necrons tonight!

While Drukhari currently have a 43% win rate in tournaments the Necrons have a 49% while my Space Wolves have a 46% win rate. This means that across all league tournaments on average, the Necrons have been outperforming the Space Wolves

As you can see, the top spots are held by Aeldari, Genestealer Cults, Imperial Knights and Adeptus Custodes.

However, some of those winrates are starting to lean towards absurdity and I will need to punch around my own weight a bit before going and taking on armies like that!

So, like the Dark Eldar - I have made a study of my upcoming opponent.

They have a great Army Rule - Reanimation Protocols, allowing them to bring destoryed models back into the game or to heal lost wounds on bigger units.

The only way that I will be able to get past this rule is if I completely destroy something. Then units cannot be brought back or wounds healed.

Their Detachment rule makes units more accurate when they have a Character in a unit. All things point to Necrons being Character Heavy and this increases the chances of one of my Characters killing one of them and earning me the Saga of the Warrior Born.

But of course my main worry is how much anti-tabk this army has.

I have no idea what sort of Necron army this guy plays. His name is Wynand.

He could be troop heavy, tank heavy, hybrid. He could field fast units or slow unbreakable units that are difficult to shift due to the number of wounds and the amount of reanimation buffs he takes and I have no idea what he will bring.

I have been researching the units and there are more units and more characters than I can safely memorize in a short amount of time.

However, he is unlikely to know what I can do since more Space Wolves don't play Champions of Russ and most people mistake me for another Space Marine player!

We shall see!

Wish me luck!

Dude, love the amount of research you are pouring into this game. Reminds me of when I used to think only about MTG. Love the passion, man.

Haha! I have to study my enemy if I am going to win a game. I seek defeat but I do not seek surrender. I plan to die giving my utmost in a battle.

@zakludick! You Are Alive so I just staked 0.1 $ALIVE to your account on behalf of @ mirroredspork. (4/10)

The tip has been paid for by the We Are Alive Tribe through the earnings on @alive.chat, feel free to swing by our daily chat any time you want, plus you can win Hive Power (2x 50 HP) and Alive Power (2x 500 AP) delegations (4 weeks), and Ecency Points (4x 50 EP), in our chat every day.

Space marines tend to also have quite a few characters lying around but I'm confident that the Wolves can at least put up a good fight!
One thing that has me thinking - necrons seem like they are better for a long game strategy whereas the Wolves (and other assault oriented armies like angels) look like they are great in that melee combat but lose their momentum quickly - is that a concern for you?

When possible, you destroy key targets early and start mopping up the rest.

The idea is to reduce the enemy's influence on the game.

That's pretty universal.

Hope you get it this time . lol and good luck buddy @zakludick 😁💪

They have some really scsry units! I will have to be wide awake and ready for anything tonight.
