Which faction do you find the most hardest/annoying to fight against?

[Sneakimus]

Relatively speaking, which faction gives you the most headache/annoyance/difficulty when fighting them?

For me when playing Eldar, it has got to be the Tau.

The insane range on all their units means that you need to play really aggressively towards them, and when they have armies upon armies it means you're essentially diving into a long chain of firing lines and fields, unlike with other armies where you can keep your distance and chip your way through them with superior speed and range.
Their Kroot allies are easy to kill, but the way they spam nigh-indestructible beasts during their Stronghold mission is just ridicilous. A stupid dino has no right to have that much HP!

Second place has got to be the Orks. Despite being the 'brute' faction their armies tend to come with a surprisingly wide assortment of different unit types compared to other factions, all clumped together in a giant blob. Usually I can focus on just anti-vehicle or anti-infantry vs most factions, but against the Orks I need to be really responsive and work to basically pry their giant and endless blob apart piece by piece.

Necrons. hard to kill, and commander is immortal

[Nathan]

Yeah man, when the commander dies in your base and just keeps hassling you all game, go away!

I have to say necrons too. Tough, annoying, and if you let them get to max tech it can become a real slog to beat them.

for me personally, i would say that IG is such a major pain in the a*s when you are against them, for the sole reason that they JUST. WON'T. GIVE. UP!

it can get quite frustrating a times...

Thanks for deleting my post for no reason...ill repost then.

I wouldnt consider Necrons being the hardest, only their tower that turn your units against you. everything else is quite easy. For the Lord part, have him fight against a bunch of bots while your commander plants the bomb, then use transport vehicle to deliver him back to start and end the mission. Works for all races...never done this with IG however.

For me the most annoying to fight against are probably Orks, when fighting with IG, their massed units can easily deal with IG troops, as they are weak....Only a backup firepower like Basilisks or Baneblade can deal with these masses properly.

The easiest race to play for me are Chaos....summon Bloodthirster and take out key structures to lessen resistance. then move in with your army to pick off leftovers.

necrons, they are overpowered asf and have never been play tested

[Rhosalth]

I have a hard time playing againts the tau and eldar. Tau is just IG but with better guns and Eldar are that one faction which has an answer to everything you do.

[Dumah]

If grown unchecked IG is capable of swarming anything with sheer number of pew-pew-pew.

[RAVEN]

For me its necrons, second is tau they're just so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ annoying with that invisible ♥♥♥♥ when you don't have anything to reveal them

[Darth Alpharius]

fighting necrons is hard if you don't beat them in the first 10mins they can become a pain

everything that ragdolls your squads is annoying as hell. Ork Leman Russ, Illum Zar, Baneblade, even guard grunts with grenade launchers can be super annoying early game.

as a whole I would say Necrons. not that they are especially op, but the way the AI plays them is annoying as hell, because they keep coming at you with all these little units that are basically indestructible and you always gotta have an eye out for it

Pariahs are mostly the most annoying ones, slows down movement speed and fast squad refill...hate them but love them when playing with Necrons
