In light of a lack of an official decision from the Army Champ, I am taking his comments and moving things forward on the Necron list.
Charmingly put, but unessesary.
If you think the Necron Pylon is a paper tiger, try testing your theory by bringing Space Marines.  This is THE argument against the unit.  ÂÂ
And that's the problem.
This argument translates into "I can't play the way I want to, so I want you to change the rules so I can win with my chosen list."
Which is why they always have been, and alway will be dismissed out of hand.  If the list doesn't work against and army, don't use it.  It's really not a complicated idea.  If you're stuck with a not so great list against an opponent... well, that's what seperates the good players.  People who can improvise and adapt.  Squeeze the most good out of what they have.
If you want a battle report to be compelling, then you need to demostrate where you fought well, and adjusted your tactics in the face of the enemy.  I've seen too many reports where people have their force split all over the place.  Once I see those I know it's a forgone conclusion, and I'm not likely to see useful info come out of that report.
The same applies to the dreaded "popcorn" armies.
They are crap, you can beat them with even a half decent army set up.  if you want to prove to me that I'm wrong, and that every single fight I had ever won against one was a fluke, you should have a solid army, deployed properly.
Anything else just doesn't mean anything.  Sorry.
