Title: Soulstorm Battle Report

Teams: Me vs Seven computers on Normal.

Races: All Necrons.

Shit was cash yo.

And don't mind shitty quality. I realized I prefer larger resolution to better graphics, so I toned down all the graphics in exchange for 1200x800, and persistent bodies. As well, there possibly should be more bodies, but I kept resurrecting my guys with my Necron Lord, and I had a Tomb Spyder clean up as well.

These two pictures are from right outside my base. About three computers and I clashed there, non-stop, for about half an hour.

This was right around the bend from the first picture. Here, one squad of Necron Warriors took on a seemingly endless line up of other Necrons. This was happening at the same time as the other battle in front of my base, which I was more focused on. I didn't notice that a single squad broke off and was fighting there until they were down to one or so, then I reinforced them, called them Men, and left them.

They won.

This was near the end game, near the middle of the map. I finally cleared out everyone in front of my base and decided, "Fuck you, those four relics are mine," and expanded to the middle. Not as many bodies here, but it was still pretty decisive. There wasn't exactly much resistance from here on out, and the body count for the rest of the game was minimal.

Also, I don't know what the fuck is up with these Immortals. They were like that since the very start of the game. Looks like a Sergeant and his Platoon.

Final results. Game took over an hour and a half. You can tell which computers survived into late game.

But fuck it was fun.

-I also have a new appreciation for Pariahs. I had a single squad that I built when I first could and they stayed with me throughout the entire game.

I saved the replay so maybe I'll actually get some battle shots later.

Straa's doing the Campaign of Dark Crusade!

He just finished a two and a half hour battle against Space Marines! Space Marines with fully loaded Honour Guard.

Only decent screenshot I managed to get. As said, two and a half hours of battle. Non-stop. It was a constant struggle back and forth, starting from outside my base to the middle. You... might notice this is actually the same map as before. I swear to god that wasn't on purpose, like I said, campaign mode I can't choose maps.

The area where that screenshot was another major battle. I think possibly an hour there, constantly sending forces in while he deep striked in as well. However, Mass Resurrection really fucking helps! Haha, entire army right back up!

Next major battle was to the left of the middle. Hell, the entire middle. I kept gaining and losing ground there, there were a few times when I completely ran out of any unit fighting there, and was honestly expecting a tidal wave against my base any moment.

Afterwards however, once total control of the middle had been gained, the enemy put up little resistance and was quickly destroyed.

Then I forgot in campaign mode you can't save battle results, or see death tolls, or any of that.

I guarantee you, it was in the thousands.

-And now to realize no one reads these anyway.

WRONG, SIR! I read it >:

That sounds like it was a pretty epic battle. I actually didn't know about the Necron "Mass Resurrection" power (I usually play Tau and SM on campaign |D )

Looked like fun, hope to see more.
