@BaronVonKenny The voice acting in this one is actually pretty great. You've clearly never played Soulstorm; now THAT'S some hilariously bad voice acting.
No, the canonical nature of Pariahs (like Tomas Macabee, the chatty necron) is that they were originally human "blanks", humans born without souls who dampen psychic power around them and inherently creep other humans out. One of the main reason that Necrons raid and abduct human colonies is to gather more blanks, which are then turned into Pariahs. Normal humans cannot be turned into a Pariah, though it's been hinted that the Adeptus Mechanicus is tainted by the influence of the C'tan.
Why this level reduce the hp of the units? I played on normal and instead of 200% hp i was given about 150%. It's not so bad, but if it's do the same on hard level, the situation is a bit unfair. BTW what is this shuddering, paleing truth the pariah guy spoke of?
@xxlCortez The Necrons are quite literally the oldest remaining race in the galaxy right now, their existence pre-dates the creation of Chaos and its interaction with real space. It would be no surprise that they would hold dark and maddening secrets that no other race can comprehend without descending to some level of insanity. Basically the Pariah was revealed to some of their ancient knowledge and went mad with the revelation.
@xxlCortez The fact that the Necrons are the ultimate race and unlimited in numbers. At least, that is what you see when they kill you and invade your succumbing mind with their images of universal conquest.
@ArugalSwe Yeah, hardly fair really that all the other races get these big badass bases and cutscenes while the player has to fight a normal, even terms fight... kinda sucks when you think about it.
@xxxmikeyxxxx outnumber the enemy so it will be like 3 soldiers of yours facing 1 soldier of their...like 300 space marines battling 100 chaos marines,or vice versa...i think
@jonanlsh ... If you think this is easy... then play SS! Thats just waiting! Nothing more! You can do more... but you don't need to do more. Here you really have something to do.
@Warhiji i HAVE played SS. Its TOO EASY!!!! *laughs* 4 Monoliths? Hell, all I need are a bunch of Stealthsuits (or cloaked D-Cannons) and I can blast those 4 motherf****** monoliths back to kingdom come!
It's relatively easy to beat the mission with Eldar, without completing even a single secondary objective.
All you need to do is strategically teleport bonesingers and build webway gates. Sure, 2/3 of them will die, but sooner or later you'll find a safe spot.
Then, teleport away and do so again. I've even managed to bypass the Monoliths at the entrance to the main citadel this way. You can get Taldeer in and out in seconds.
i hated this stronghold....spent like 30-45 mins getting all the secondary objectivs done finally planted the bomb so i just ordered all my units to get the fuck out of there lol and of course my leader get targeted dies and i loose i dont plan on attacking necron again any time soon
That's what I'm afraid of- If Chaos discovers the true power of the Fortresses and uses them not against the false Gods of the Necrons but against the Imperium (Which he HAS BTW) again, then the state of affairs in the Galaxy will go from emergency to catastrophe!
The Necrons are soulless machines that represent all that is truly horrific of the C'tan's plans for the Galaxy: Despair, silence, the void.
Quite fortunately, they can be defeated; their terrible armies are only just waking up after millions of years of sleep. This means that they can be destroyed before they awaken, and that (If the Blackstone fortresses are retaken) their false Gods can be wiped out, provided the ancient weapons are put to their original purpose.
Good luck with that, a Blackstone Fortress has been destroyed by the Necrons, and I believe the other two have been corrupted by Chaos, essentially nullifying any hope of destroying them.
@Fatman311 I know, the freaking Chaos forces have no idea what those ancient weapons are truly capable of, so unless they suddenly decide to put them to their original purpose we're in a universely precarious situation. Necrons are anathema to all Chaos stands for- Though if one side eliminates the other, it'll do so having become entirely more dangerous than before.
It's entirely possible Chaos, or more specifically, Abbadon, knows what the Blackstone Fortresses are and how to use them. The Chaos gods were born during the War in Heaven, and are capable of seeing in the past and future (or at least, Tzeentch is) whose to say they havent gifted Abbadon the knowledge to use them? It's worth thinking about.
@qwertclyde1092 Besides the C'tan particularly the Deciever are just so good at slaughtering their enemies without even having the Necron fire a shot.
@13Cadavre13 sadly there is no knowledge of which planet the Necron homeworld is. For all we know it may have been destroyed in their first conflict with the Old One's back when they were still Necrontyr. If there is going to be another DOW2 expansion featuring Necrons, it will be a tomb world instead.
this stronghold is such a bitch, especially on hard mode. Not only are they ridiculously strong and annoying, they also drop down at least a third of your units health.
You have to understand, the Necrons really have no opinion over anything. Everything that they are is just an extension of the C'tan bloodthirsty malice in universal genocide. So it really is the C'tan who view the living as unlucky.
@kingshadownecron well when they made the deal they proboly weren't thinking they'd be turned into mindless machines for all eternity the great deciver probloy decived them
They are mindless souls trapped in Metal skeletons. Controlled by the C'tan gods. The Pariah only carries the messages of the C'tan, most likely the gods have fucked up this soul for propaganda.
@kingshadownecron Erm he actually says LUCKY. This is probably because the living can die where as the necrons must eternally suffer the consequences of their mistake.(allowing themselves to be entombed in their living metal shells)
@kingshadownecron They are blessed by the C'tan with Immortality, thus. they are known by most other factions as the "Deathless Army" due to their powerful Gauss technology and gruesome champions of undeath.
@BlueRogue6 yes and if you knew thier backstory you would know the became what they are so they could live longer becaused they feared death now they want death and hate living
In the same way that the Eldar were based on a mixture of Tolkien's elves and asiatic warriors, the Necrons were based on a cross between the 'Terminator' machines (merciless metal skeletons advancing slowly and unstoppably) and Ancient Egyptian mummies (the undead rising from tombs, swarms of scarabs, obelisks and pyramid-like structures).
maybe i turtle too much as the necrons, but i find it much easier to fight the chaos marines and the regular marines, since they don't spam units quite as fast.
on maps where you win by holding on to points, i think the eldar or dark eldar could easily beat the madly slow-moving necrons.
'"the necrons,iron plague and reavers of souls in the galaxy,they leave a path of pain,sorrow,destruction and blood"and sorry to here about your brother who got nightmares.....he shouldn't have played the most violent but cool strategy game.
I've never seen this one. I have played it on easy and normal (and gotten to the catacombs) but I never saw this particular cutscene. I saw a different one, one of the differences was that there where two squads of marines, not one squad of scouts who got ambushed.
"When I uncovered the truth, I too shuddered and paled with fear. The truth...that Relic had made the Necrons too damn strong and this stronghold is *BEEP*ing hard."
they're unbelievbly powerful i sent chaplain at them 1 group of warriors killed him and i had to use titan cannons to kill em also 4 monoliths idiot not 1

There will come a time when the stygian night never ends, where dead stars will spread before us like islands that slumber on the ocean, and when the beings that hid like shadows will feed on us forever." -Adept Corteswain at the Omniastery of Selethoth, shortly before his disappearance.
Are those Tau Gue'vesas the necrons were chasing (and later killing)? They seem to have the wrong coloring to be IG, and don't have armor so they're not space marines.....
I played the campaign through with the Necrons and defeated everyone easily. Then I tried to defeat the Necrons with the Imperial Guard...youch. Leads me to thinking the game's slightly unbalanced.
Darn, the Necron Stronghold has got to be one of the hardest in the game. Those four obbellisks can prove to be challenging, especially the resurection one, which is right outside of your starting base.
they nerfed them in Soulstorm. I was so depressed when i played them. They just occasionally send a squad of necron warriors and that's it. The end was a different story when they summoned the monoliths, but they were playing horribly throughout most of the game.
The Necron Stronghold can be tough, but with a lil bit of soldier squads and mines near the tunnel openings where they come out from, you got this one wrapped up. Still, very challenging Stronghold they have.
Lol, when playing the Necron stronghold with guard, don't bother!
Just turtle, build a load of turrets, get loads of men, and pump them into 20 Chimeras and use Tactica Command to find the right spot to plant bomb, once you've done that, get all your Chimeras there by macro, and swarm!
Stopping these guys is tough. Too many towers in the lair of their place. One for raising the dead, another for lossing control of ya vehicles, another to blind ya, etc. These Necrons are a pain.
the endgame is probably going to be necrons vs tyranids vs the imperium with the resurrected emperor. the eldar are already dwindling and their only hope likes in warp resurrection as a single deity. neither chaos nor the orks can ever get their acts together. the tau are too tiny to be considered. what i think will happen is, the iom and necrons will fight to the death and the tyranids will jump ship into another universe -which is the only action feasable for a race entirely bent on survival.
I'd say the Necrons are most likely to destroy the galaxy. Everything that they've used in combat up until now has just been the first things to awaken. Its only a matter of time before they all wake up and some kind of galactic alliance will have to be made to stop the Necrons from killing it all.
Victims of life, join the Necrons..bring the universe to its grave of enlightenment...let you live in peace for the first time, in death. All life ends in death, and only accelerating to death, with increase your power. The Necrons await you.
Then the guy playin as the necrons was likely the shittest warhammer 40k player ever. All a necron army needs to do to win any battle is let a monolith go down in the enemy base & leave a huge squad of necron groundtroops fight until they lose near the monolith. The enemy thinks they've won but it's ressurrection time! XD can't touch this! lool
Only the pariah, it is told in the intro movie. There were explorer's that epxlored the catacombs and awoke the necron, but they all died, and only one explorer has arisen as a pariah.
really i thought it was kinda easy i found the Space marine and Tau Stronholds hard cause u were held down by the enemy until u get the Orbital Blaster thingy or for tau got the communicater
"Yes corporal" did you happen to notice a bunch of necron flayed ones just ambushed us" why no i didn't thanks for telling me" "should we shoot them" "no lets just look around until they kill us"
Yep, they are very stong, especially the ressurection orb artifect from the necron lord, you can get beyond your normal squad cap. I dont think there is other race that can do that, but i think the necron have also some weaknesses, like none of their squads can have commanders, or weapon upgrades (except the tomb-spider). And i personally think their vehicels suck, escpessialy the lesser necron lord. He is very easily killed and stunning enemies doesn't work good.
yes i agree actualy very well put their but i must admit due to the fact that the necron lord, with the right wargear and artifacts, is actually okay at stunning enimies he is also effective as a sort of decoy for necron warriors or flayed ones but thats about all hes good for
Do you mean the necron lord or the lesser necron lord? cause i meant the lesser necron lord, the normal necron lord (which can aquire artifacts) is superb, but the lesser necron lord is in my eyes weak.
Nope, sorry :) In DOW there are no necrons...only orcs, eldar, space marine, chaos and imperial guard.
They came with Dark Crusade...together with the tau-empire . That were 2 new races. Like the movie title says: "Dark Crusade Necron Stronghold Assault ".
yer i know all that but in witch DOW was their a lesser necron lord like was it Dark Crusade or was it winter assault cause in the end their all DOW like the new one coming out DOW soulstorm
Now i understand, it is in : Warhammer 40.000 Dawn of War Dark crusade. But i must admit i never played winter assault, but as far as i know there are no necrons in winter assault.
not as a race but if ur imperial guard in the campaign their are so many Funking necrons with like 9 monoliths and 20 battalions of necron warrioirs but u get mini tian cannons ^_^ but the game is worth that mission
Towards the end of Winter Assault, there is a small batch of Necrons (one monolith and a few squads of Warriors) who attack whatever faction you're playing as. They're actually relatively powerful.
Technically, only the Necrons and the Eldar can exceed the 20/20 squad cap. Necrons can raise up to 20+4 cap worth with the Ressurection Orb (as of 1.2), or 20+5 with the Tomb Spyder. They can also trade their two 3-cap Destroyer Lords for enemy 5-cap vehicles, bringing them to a 25/22 total.
On the other hand, the Eldar get boosted to 24/30 just for having a Avatar on the field. So there.

I played the campaign through with the Necrons and defeated everyone easily. Then I tried to defeat the Necrons with the Imperial Guard...youch. Leads me to thinking the game's slightly unbalanced.
Still fun though.

Darn, the Necron Stronghold has got to be one of the hardest in the game. Those four obbellisks can prove to be challenging, especially the resurection one, which is right outside of your starting base.

they nerfed them in Soulstorm. I was so depressed when i played them. They just occasionally send a squad of necron warriors and that's it. The end was a different story when they summoned the monoliths, but they were playing horribly throughout most of the game.

What are you talking about? All you just need to do is try to mass your units. Btw, what race where you playing as anyway?

The Necron Stronghold can be tough, but with a lil bit of soldier squads and mines near the tunnel openings where they come out from, you got this one wrapped up. Still, very challenging Stronghold they have.

I Defeted the necrons with the Imperial guards!
it was a long battle

Lol, when playing the Necron stronghold with guard, don't bother!
Just turtle, build a load of turrets, get loads of men, and pump them into 20 Chimeras and use Tactica Command to find the right spot to plant bomb, once you've done that, get all your Chimeras there by macro, and swarm!

Stopping these guys is tough. Too many towers in the lair of their place. One for raising the dead, another for lossing control of ya vehicles, another to blind ya, etc. These Necrons are a pain.

I'm an Eldar fan all the way, but if I had to choose a side of evil it would DEFINITELY be the Necrons. Those mofo's are SO badass.

Seraphim.
In 40K no race can be called truly good.
The humans wants to kill everything that isnt human.
The eldar cares little for if the other races lives or dies.
The TAU kills anything that doesent join them.
Did i miss any race now?

I don't really see how this is relevant to what I said, Sweddude, but okay.

Well you said you wanted to choose a side of evil and he was simply pointing out that everything is evil in their own way
Hothead357 3 years ago 4
Ah, I see what you mean. And to complete his list, he did miss Orks, Tyranids, Dark Eldar, and Chaos. :)
SeraphimProject009 3 years ago
The orks.

@Sweddude how about orks and dark eldar
Bluedeviant 6 months ago
the endgame is probably going to be necrons vs tyranids vs the imperium with the resurrected emperor. the eldar are already dwindling and their only hope likes in warp resurrection as a single deity. neither chaos nor the orks can ever get their acts together. the tau are too tiny to be considered. what i think will happen is, the iom and necrons will fight to the death and the tyranids will jump ship into another universe -which is the only action feasable for a race entirely bent on survival.
zer0nix 3 years ago
Uh, the Ta'u empire rivals that of the Imperium. It's kinda large. Not tiny.

I'd say the Necrons are most likely to destroy the galaxy. Everything that they've used in combat up until now has just been the first things to awaken. Its only a matter of time before they all wake up and some kind of galactic alliance will have to be made to stop the Necrons from killing it all.

Victims of life, join the Necrons..bring the universe to its grave of enlightenment...let you live in peace for the first time, in death. All life ends in death, and only accelerating to death, with increase your power. The Necrons await you.

EvilFighterPilot 4 years ago
Then the guy playin as the necrons was likely the shittest warhammer 40k player ever. All a necron army needs to do to win any battle is let a monolith go down in the enemy base & leave a huge squad of necron groundtroops fight until they lose near the monolith. The enemy thinks they've won but it's ressurrection time! XD can't touch this! lool

Only the pariah, it is told in the intro movie. There were explorer's that epxlored the catacombs and awoke the necron, but they all died, and only one explorer has arisen as a pariah.

well technically they all shut down remember their immortal no matter how big a blast but ur right they all got smashed

I found the Necron Stronghold one of the hardest because they have the Nightbringer AND 3 Monoliths.
Erril13 4 years ago
really i thought it was kinda easy i found the Space marine and Tau Stronholds hard cause u were held down by the enemy until u get the Orbital Blaster thingy or for tau got the communicater

lol scout squad just hesitated- "Uh sargeant"
"Yes corporal" did you happen to notice a bunch of necron flayed ones just ambushed us" why no i didn't thanks for telling me" "should we shoot them" "no lets just look around until they kill us"

i found this battle is really hard if ure eldar
star1439 4 years ago
iv nevr gotten that far in eldar campaign and no wonder its so hard i mean they are like arch enemies anyways
amcklu 4 years ago
Yep, they are very stong, especially the ressurection orb artifect from the necron lord, you can get beyond your normal squad cap. I dont think there is other race that can do that, but i think the necron have also some weaknesses, like none of their squads can have commanders, or weapon upgrades (except the tomb-spider). And i personally think their vehicels suck, escpessialy the lesser necron lord. He is very easily killed and stunning enemies doesn't work good.
OrgrimDeathhammer 4 years ago
yes i agree actualy very well put their but i must admit due to the fact that the necron lord, with the right wargear and artifacts, is actually okay at stunning enimies he is also effective as a sort of decoy for necron warriors or flayed ones but thats about all hes good for
amcklu 4 years ago
Do you mean the necron lord or the lesser necron lord? cause i meant the lesser necron lord, the normal necron lord (which can aquire artifacts) is superb, but the lesser necron lord is in my eyes weak.
OrgrimDeathhammer 4 years ago
lesser waa? we are talking bout DOW right
amcklu 4 years ago
Nope, sorry :) In DOW there are no necrons...only orcs, eldar, space marine, chaos and imperial guard.
They came with Dark Crusade...together with the tau-empire . That were 2 new races. Like the movie title says: "Dark Crusade Necron Stronghold Assault ".
OrgrimDeathhammer 4 years ago
yer i know all that but in witch DOW was their a lesser necron lord like was it Dark Crusade or was it winter assault cause in the end their all DOW like the new one coming out DOW soulstorm
amcklu 4 years ago
Now i understand, it is in : Warhammer 40.000 Dawn of War Dark crusade. But i must admit i never played winter assault, but as far as i know there are no necrons in winter assault.
OrgrimDeathhammer 4 years ago
not as a race but if ur imperial guard in the campaign their are so many Funking necrons with like 9 monoliths and 20 battalions of necron warrioirs but u get mini tian cannons ^_^ but the game is worth that mission
amcklu 4 years ago
Towards the end of Winter Assault, there is a small batch of Necrons (one monolith and a few squads of Warriors) who attack whatever faction you're playing as. They're actually relatively powerful.
AquaticIdealist 3 years ago
Technically, only the Necrons and the Eldar can exceed the 20/20 squad cap. Necrons can raise up to 20+4 cap worth with the Ressurection Orb (as of 1.2), or 20+5 with the Tomb Spyder. They can also trade their two 3-cap Destroyer Lords for enemy 5-cap vehicles, bringing them to a 25/22 total.
On the other hand, the Eldar get boosted to 24/30 just for having a Avatar on the field. So there.
SkarmoryThePG 4 years ago 4
Oh, about the avatar i never knew, tnx for the good response!
OrgrimDeathhammer 4 years ago
Well, if we are to be specific, one of Lukas Alexander's wargear items raises the squad cap as well if memory serves.
SkarmoryThePG 4 years ago
Apparently I cannot count. The total is 25/24
