Morning all, has anyone worked out how many points the Necron Megaforce is? Im thinking about buying one tomorrow but i havent decided yet. Knowing how many points it is would be a great help.
Thanks.

I have a blog, check it out :P - http://forthegloryofgorkandmork.blogspot.co.uk/2013/04/tau-xv8-02-commander.html - just updated my blog 11/04/13
It varies based on which ones you build. For example, you can either make a Command Barge or an Annihilation Barge from the kit.
Using the cheapest alternatives (so the Command Barge, the Immortals, and the Ghost Ark) you have (including an Overlord with a warscythe and resurrection orb in the Barge kit) ;
130 + 80 + 312 + 85 + 115 + 150 + 120 + 50 + 90 = 1132 Points
That doesn't include upgrades (except for what is modeled on the Overlord). If you however switch the selections to their higher points cost alternatives;
1132 + 10 + 10 + 60 = 1212
Then you can around up to this much for upgrades;
1132 + 160 + 15 + 210 + 50 = 1567
&
1212 + 160 + 15 + 210 + 50 = 1647
Hope that helps!
Well I'd be fielding an Annihilation Barge and Doomsday Ark instead of their cheaper options. Are Deathmarks good even at 5? Then better at 10?

Deathmarks are an odd one for me.
They can be nasty with a Cryptek, equipped with the Veil and the brain melty stave. But in a starting army, I'd go for Immortals every time. So much firepower! I mean seriously, they pretty much have a heavy bolter each...

I actually quite like Tesla Carbines and I might try and convert 5 Warriors into Deathmarks.

I'd recommend just building troops with the troop options in the box if you're starting a brand new army, and in particular if you're going with tesla Immortals. Gives your army a solid foundation, and you can always expand your elites later if you want some Deathmarks. The scoring bodies are important and more gauss is always good. Bolters that can glance anything!
