The Necron Overlord teleports into Last Stand on March 10, where for 5 days it will be made free for all, to celebrate 5 years of DOW2: Retribution. An announcement trailer can be viewed below. Armed with War Scythes, Resurrection Orbs, and all manner of green crackling energy weapons, the Necron Overlord is akin to the ancient Egyptian god of death, Anubis, if Anubis was built by Skynet. Functioning as either a long-range fast-firing shooter or melee powerhouse as you see fit, the Overlord’s final ability is to summon the fearsome star god itself, the C’Tan named Nightbringer.
A fan favorite and a long requested addition to Last Stand game play, the Necron Overlord marshals an absolute command of death. Celebrating the strategy game’s 5th anniversary, yesterday Relic Entertainment announced the exciting addition of the Necron Overlord to Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War 2: Retribution‘s Last Stand mode.
