The Scythe Harvester or otherwise known as simply the Scythe-class or Harvester-class, is your bog-standard Harvest Ship. Considered a Cruiser-class due to its weapons, the Scythe Harvester is a flexible and adaptable class of Necron warships.

The Scythe Harvester is also where things start to get really serious with the Necron ships, both with their insane toughness and incredibly high price. At 291 points, the cost of the Harvester is comparable to Battleships of other factions. Because of this, Necron fleets relying on numerous heavy ships have to be careful about being swarmed and taking critical hits to their weaponry.

As an entire Necron fleet can have fewer than 30 actual weapons bays, criting them out is usually the fastest way to stop you from damaging their ships. Also like with the other Necron ships, if they decided to bring a lot of lances, [[Anal circumference|you might be in for a bad day.]] Another Necron-standard reminder is that while the on-paper raw dps might be low, always remember it doesn't have accuracy falloffs that other factions have to suffer with, and in the Scythe Harvester's case, 1/3rd of its damage is also piercing both Armor and Shields.

Like with other side-firing weapons this faction possesses, all 4 [[Lightning Arc]] Batteries can fire from either the right or left side, they just can't fire forward, so they [[Pretend|are not broadside weapons in the typical sense.]] Switching to your Dispersed Lightning Arc when facing large numbers, making good use of your Scythes and utilizing your teleport manoeuvre to retreat for repairs, or chasing down fleeing almost dead enemies, will go a long way in extending the use you get out of this vessel. They also have two [[Particle Whip Launcher]]s to target heavily armed ships at the front, making it an overall, balanced warship.
