Description

For sixty million years, the Necrons have slept in their tombs. Now they come to Battlesector!
The Necron faction DLC brings fourteen new units to Warhammer 40,000: Battlesector, with unique gameplay mechanics, weapons, and skills to bring glory to the return of the Necron empire.

The Dynasty of Living Metal

With bodies made of Living Metal, and Reanimation Protocols that can resurrect the fallen, the relentless march of these ancient warriors is endless. Unique Momentum mechanics make the Necron army play unlike any other.

Rule Your Dynasty

HQ leaders include the Necron Overlord, whose Command Protocols augment the strengths of his surrounding forces; and the mighty Plasmancer, a high damage nuker that can call down devastation with multiple earth-shattering abilities.

Control the Battlefield

The Necrons have many tools to dominate the battlefield. Warriors and Immortals march relentlessly on the opponent, while the indomitable Lychguard and the adaptable Triarch Praetorians provide tactical flexibility for any situation.
The pinpoint accuracy of the Deathmarks and Hexmark Destroyers will force your opponents to find cover. However, the devastating charge of the Skorpekh Destroyers will break even the most stalwart of defences.

Unrelenting Support

Heavy Lokhust Destroyers provide devastating strikes across the battlefield, and the Annihilation Barge will leave an inevitable trail of destruction wherever it goes. Use the versatile Tomb Blades to outmanoeuvre the lesser races or rain death from the skies with airstrikes from the Doom Scythe.

The solo part is just battles with all units unlocked and 15 squads vs 15 squads where you move straight forward. That's not fun at all. So it's bascially multiplayer only... but who plays multiplayer?

Necrons are my favourite faction in Warhammer 40,000. But this DLC is not worth its money. Overall: The new game mode is a Preview. I.e it's a beta test that you but is not part of the DLC. The Necrons faction is the

Well this turned into a hot garbage fire... $15 cash grab for nothing but a retconned "preview" campaign. I almost never play multiplayer, and I loved the Blood Angels campaign in Battlesector. I have played it back

Necrons are powerfull. A bit desapointed by the price vs the content of this dlc. No Canoptek Doomstalker, C'Tan, Ophydian Destroyer or Triarch Stalker. Would have been nice to see a map or two added to skirmish with

Holy ♥♥♥♥, even tesla can decently hurt a large tyranid. Did dev miss the part, where a lot of necron weapons have ♥♥♥♥ AP in the codex? They are so good it feels like fabled days of yore with gauss flayers killing

Do not buy this DLC. The Necron units are so under-powered compared to the stock units that come with the game. Necron melee units can only attack in a straight line, and cannot attack if they have moved already, making
