Honestly Vice, I don't like the list. Too much "extras," and not enough core. 20 Warriors in a 1500 pt army seems awfully small.

Not to mention a C'tan. I don't ever like HQs like this in games smaller then 1700 pts, but that's just me.

Also, no Destroyers of any sort! Immortals are decent, but warriors won't cut it when it comes to fire support. Destroyers are the best way to slow the enemey from just bowling into you full speed.

I like the Monolith and Veil of Darkness, as the ability for Necrons to teleport is something most players ignore.

But, in conclusion, you have to beef up the troops section.

30 'Necrons' is a bit low for a 1500 point list.  Also do you need three Spyders?  Dropping two of them would free up some points to get some more warriors.

Also, my personal preference is that Disruption Fields do jack when warriors have them, and dropping them will save yet more points towards beefing up your troops  :)

OK HERE WE GO:
drop deciever.  him and monolith are too much for 1500 pts, and in my experience the monolith is more useful with its teleporting and its particle whip.
your lord with VoD and R orb is fine, just put him with the immortals and your good to go.
Drops ALL the disruption fields in the army.  they are worthless, since YOUR GUNS ALREADY ARE DISRUPTION FIELDS FOR SHOOTING!!!
unless the board you play on is more than 48" wide, then you only need 2 tomb spyders.  drop the 3rd.  place the tomb spyders each 12" in from each end of the board and 24" apart, and those 2 spyders will R orb a 48"x24" area roughly.  the third would be moot unless your boards are humongous.
beef up to 30 warriors.
also, what else do you have in terms of models??? that could help me out when im suggesting things.

Okily,  here we go!

Lord is good. As samdan said, stick him the immortals and he is good to go.

Use ALL of your Warriors. 3 squads of 10 is good fro a 1500pt game. It keeps up your phase out limit and also acts as a nice fire base for the rest of the army.

For fast attack, how about using those Wraiths? 6 is a good number, as I'm sure C'nesha will tell you. You can use these guys to hunt out either strong, small groups of elite guys, or a nice big squad of Gaurdians or somesuch thing.

Failing that, you could just use more Immortals...

I don't what you were thinking about using them in a DE force for, but whatever.

Anywho, I like Flayed Ones. They work wonders at what I want them to do, and that is, a distraction. No one yet has not fallen for the infiltrating or deep striking FOs. They just can't resist. Since they are so close and think that all Necrons suck in CC, they assualt and get ripped to bits or are just stuck in CC for several turn, isolated from the army, and then shot to bits when they get out of CC. I don;t even use a full squad normally, just 6 of them, but they always pull the same attention. Maybe it's the paint scheme..... ::)

Plus they are cheap, and therefore you can get a lot, which ups your phase out again.

I must say that I like your second list alot more than your fist one. I think you need to get ahold of some destroyers ASAP! I have 9 myself and one Destroyer Lord. (Great deal on figs due to a local store going out of business) Those destroyers do great! It os the longest ranged gun I run in my force and boy do I need it. I also don't run any C'tan or Monoliths and I do fine.

You can NEVER go wrong with More Warriors!

There is no such thing as "Too Many Warriors!"
Cry Havoc!, and let loose the dogs of war!
