Necrons vs Imperial Knights
Warhorns blared across the blasted land, shaking the very earth loose. Titanic feet thundered, cracking the ground beneath them. There was no need for subtlety here, for the enemy knew of their approach. No. The Castellan in command of the Knights force wanted instead to intimidate, to strike fear into the hearts of his foe.
It did not matter to him that his foe had no heart. That his foe had only metal where there should have been flesh. That his foe could not be shaken in this way. This was how battles had been fought for millennia. First you sound the drums of war, then you dance to the beat with Stubbers and Battle Cannons.
Across from the monstrous, lumbering line of Imperial Knights—their target—stood a dark monument crackling with green energy. A Monolith to the ancient enemy, the Necrons. The sky above the edifice was dark and sinister, black clouds swirling around a beam of light shooting into the heavens.
Beneath the Monolith, a legion of undead, mechanical warriors stood stoically against the march of the Imperial Knights. Thunder grumbled overhead. Arcs of lightning flashed, illuminating their metallic armour in ethereal shades of green. These warriors did not move. They did not flinch. They did not balk at the advancing Imperial forces. Instead they waited, standing as still as statues, their eyes hollow and dead.
Until the Overlord began to move.
His steps were slow, deliberate. He moved to the frontlines, a tattered cloak billowing behind him. His eyes burned with fiery, green light; defiant against the war machines encroaching on his domain. Slowly he raised the orb held in his hand, and he stared into its dark surface. By his will, the orb sparked to life, green whips of energy rippling out from inside.
Once again, he looked to the Knights, all the while slowly raising the orb in his hand. Behind him, a sea of dark eyes suddenly shone bright green, and the warriors in perfect synchronicity leveled their weapons as, around them, from underground, more mechanical constructs begun to rise.
