Good match, well played by both players. The Monolith caught me off guard as well. Unfortunately he let his army get split up from his epic and got cut up piecemeal. Monoliths are crazy strong, but the Scorch effect on Brightlance Platforms means even T3 Eldar are more than capable of cleaving through an isolated one. (Especially if backed up by the excellent Wraithlord Brightlances) I also love this matchup as an Eldar player just because its one of the only matchups where Banshees actually have a role. Opting to skip the T2.5 power spike with Warp Spiders was also an interesting decision, (although probably the right one in the face of destroyer spam) but the fast T3 paid off, as he desperately needed those support platforms.
A this point researching the relocation matrix for 200 200 would be useless, as the relocation itself also takes a lot of time. Just building a cheeky webway gate to prevent annihilation is enough, and if the wincon is destroy HQ, paying 360 req to rebuild a webway assembly is even better for 360 req. Costs less, and Necron wastes time destroying the previous one. I've still never seen relocation matrix being used in good level games, I wish it wasn't that expensive.
Enjoyed that thank you. I used to play SS many years ago an coming back - is this a fan mad and if so what changes were made please and where can I get it?

Thank you for all the work you do keeping the greatest RTS game alive. May vanilla never die.
Hell yeah man
in vanilla wh40k necrons don't get bonuses from cover
surprised I didn't see any immortals especially with monolith
Necrons don't get bonus cover but they also don't get negative cover.
What an excellent game
The eldar would have won the base race as they can relocate their buildings. Necrons cannot

Sorry for the late response. This map is a vanilla map available from the base game. Glad to hear you're returning home to DoW!!
Very good
Eldar FTW!!!!
ffs the necrons do NOT get any cover bonuses!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is very irritating just to watch, eldar is such BS.
that Necron player completely sucked
I would surrender in 5 mins under such pressure
amen
Bad necrons player
