Baal Predators w/ Flame strom cannons, will rape most infantry. Strength 6 AP 3 Template, on a tank with fast, and scout.
That's supposed to be working against an army that rapes vehicles and sits mostly in vehicles that ignore S6 weapons? Well.....
I suppose horde warrior lists will be anoyed by this, but most of those will have a 2+/T5 3 wound model in front to soak the hits. Then they will get back on feet and THEN rape your tank.
Baals are not the way to go imo.
Drop Pod with Melter and Assault Troops tend to panic Necron player. (I am one of those :-))
Remember to consolidate in a way that denies the Everliving rule (model has no room to be placed to get back up)

I also should throw out here is that I can field every choice in the army list to its maximum number except bikes. Right nowI'm leaning toward something like this (rough numbers):
1 Libby 175pts
1 Scouts camo cloaks sniper rifles 210 pts
2 assault with drop pods and melta guns 500pts
1 Sternguard drop pods combo melts 300 pts
1 quad gun 75pts
2 Stormraven lascannon missle launcher 560 pts
3 Priests, 1 walking 2 jump 300pts
Rough total is 2015 so I have to do some trimming
I hate taking the Stormravens but I know the Necron players I play with have 3-4 flyers and I want the shots to go after their flyers. I plan to play the Stormravens at extreme range and do my best to avoid as much gauss as I can for as long as I can. Then get those drop pods in their LZ and make the make tough choices about where to allocate their shots.
As a necron player the 3 drop troops, the stormravens and the quad gun would be the most inconvenient core of your force. Snipers and libby not so much, depending on gear. Hope that helps.
Tactic wise I'd ignore the flyers with as muchas possible, because they look scarier than they are. Focus them down one by one and concentrate on disrupting the obiective claiming. Oh an KILL ANY ANNIHILATION BARGES!
that sums it up I think :-)
Just got it down to this:
1 Libby
1 Scouts camo cloaks sniper rifles
2 assault with drop pods and melta guns
1 Sternguard drop pods combo melts
1 quad gun
2 Stormraven lascannon missle launcher
3 Priests, 1 walking 2 jump
For 2001 points. Still need to trim some options but this feels like my best answer. Start with my scouts and a priest in some kind of cover sitting on my objective and everything else drops in. Thoughts
