Very enjoyable it was too. I did have one unit that was scoring left, the immortals, duking it out with your HQ. They did not punch through but if freed could have veils and been lost in the warp turn 5/6 trying to land on an objective :O)
The night spinner was epic but the night scythes where mine :O) (too many night things here). That commander of awesomeness, as you called him, he really is a daddy. The tides on their own need marker lights or that commander to buff or they struggle I think. Tau as allies don't benefit from the marklights (less units that can use them) so I ended up with the commander.
The ion cannon is nice for the 5 point upgrade to add intercept. Deep striking units all bunched up (including my immortals) will hurt bad from the St8 Ap2 hit. The commander can twin link this template too but I don't think it works on intercept? Your wraith lords are tough to kill for loads of armies. Not everyone has super bad ass snipers. My Necons would have had to ingored the two lords which would have given you 5/6 turns with the bright lances to rip up what you wanted.
I was proud of myself for not using the Nova charge all game **pats own back**. It is so tempting!! but sucks when it does not work. I don't like the skyfire option on the riptide but it is cheaper than putting it on the commander and buying him missile pods. I like the redundancy his intercepting missiles gives even if it is expensive.
