BUY the codex! Don't just look at it, you need that to play!

Allright. So you're running a normal game. There are some good things for you then.
Good thing one: your opponents can't throw titans at you.
Good thing two: your opponents can't throw superheavies at you.
There are also some bad things however.
Bad thing one: Force Organization Chart. This means you can only have so many of each unit type (heavy support, troops, HQ, etc.) And it's going to REALLY cut down on your units.
Bad thing two: you can't use formations. The Necron Apocalypse formations are very powerful, and cool, and I want them in normal games.... :sad:
This means. You either have to drop the Tomb spyders, or one of your monoliths. I'd honestly say drop a monolith, the Spyders will be important to have for combat duties. And really two monoliths is gonna keep Grey Knights and Orks busy for a loooooooooooonnngggg time.
You're going to need to drop an HQ choice as well. Two lords would save you points for other options. C'tan are kinda fire magnets and at 3k the opponent will have enough fire to dust them in a turn or two.
More elites! I'd strongly suggest grabbing a pile more Immortals (Expensive, I know, there is a warrior-immortal conversion guide that can save you loads of $$ on these suckers). Immortals are the Necrons' toughest infantry and provide our real close-range punch.
In fast attack. I would suggest bumping up to having 8-10 destroyers, really crank up their effectiveness in such a large game. Also drop the Wraiths, grab the scarabs as a harassment unit. 3 wraiths are VERY fragile, and tend to be a bit more advanced in use. Think of them as assassins, not soldiers. If you want wraiths you would need to have 9 of them, and would really be losing the firepower your destroyers provide.
As for tactical approach this level could really lend itself to a double-phalanx. Have three squads of warriors, a lord, Immortals, a monolith, a spyder and a squad of destroyers form up together. Then take the other group of all the same units send them the other way. If one side is facing more assault troops, send the scarabs and other tomb spyder that way.
*Takes Deep Breath*
so an example list of something like this would be.
HQ: Lord with orb, gaze of flame
HQ: Lord with orb, Solar Pulse
Elt: 2x8 Immortals
Trps: 6x10 Warriors
FA: 2x4 Destroyers
FA: x10 Scarabs
HS: x3 Tomb Spyders
HS: x2 Monolith

If your store has a "Necron warrior phalanx" get it. And stab the bejesus out of anyone who may impede you from getting it! :silly: In fact if your store has two of them, get them. You'll pretty much have everything you need except 2 destroyers and 3 tomb spyders.
