Sequence valid

Every step is affordable at its stated timing and its prerequisites are met.

Execution notes

The answer to a turtling opponent. It is slow and telegraphed, so it needs a Warrior line that can hold two points unaided for ten minutes while the tech completes.

Adaptations

If: Opponent raiding rather than fortifying
Abandon the Ark and build a Canoptek Spyder with Immortals instead.

Known weaknesses

  • Completely loses to a mobile army that ignores the line and raids
  • The Ark is helpless if reached

Unproven build

This build was written before Dawn of War IV was released. Its timings come from provisional statistics and it has never been played.
