Below you will find quickplay army lists for Robot Legions from Grimdark Future.
Note: as v2.50 is in constant development the following might not be accurate.
Asterians (750pts)
This is a v2.50 army you can build using the Asterian Strike Force box from Mantic Games, or other models of your choice.
The Legion is quite the amusing army, and somewhat of a departure from how the Necrons in Warhammer feel to play. Still slow and shambling, but much more reliant on just having good luck for your weapon abilities to go off, and your models to ignore wounds, and your alternative morale system. It may not be the most beginner-friendly to play, as their slow nature makes recovering from positioning mistakes more punishing, and there may be frustration from not getting your abilities to activate when you need them to..
Your Lord is best placed with the unit of 10 Warriors. Regen-Protocol's 4+ Regeneration save makes it a very sticky unit that will take a lot of fire to deal with.
Robot may be a bit hard of a rule to grok on first read, but it is an extremely powerful tool in an objective-based game like Grimdark Future, where never losing the ability to contest a capture point is incredibly valuable, and well worth the low risk of your unit detonating itself, as even a single living model counts as full control of an objective.
Your main form of anti-tank is just hoping to roll 6s. The Support Platform is capable of dealing with them just fine, however, as A3 AP(2) is fine versus what you will run into at this point level, and in its current design, Poison can chew through armored enemies quite well, too, especially with the AP(1).

Combat Patrol (1000pts)
This is a v3.1.1 army you can build using the Combat Patrol: Necrons box from Games Wokshop, or other models of your choice.
The Lord is best placed with the Warriors, where Royal March allows them to move and fire as quickly as any other force. Even better, the squad has the Tripod Walker's Reanimator to support them when they come under fire.
