Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War - Dark Crusade

GR: What are some of your favorite unorthodox techniques?

Stephan: As a Necron player, my favorite unorthodox technique would be cutting off important chokepoints of the map with turrets. By doing this, it is easy for me to capture strategic points near these locations, and when enemy troops start attacking that location, I can simply teleport my Necron Warriors to the nearest Listening Post, or deep strike Flayed Ones near the turrets. Capturing points early on is not a necessity for Necrons, but by capturing these key locations, it is possible to damage the opponent's economy greatly.
