Lol. you need to support the banesblade with a few other tanks, i usually support it with 2 leman russ tanks, along with 2 other artillery tank and a chimera with karskin (sometimes i bring along techpriest to repair)usually it helps while attacking any race to support it with heavy weapons teams

I think the eldar base is the hardest seeing as you have to take all the points which is extremely hared woth necrons because you have to sennd in builder scarabs so i decided to wipe them out, it wasnt easy and all my honour guard was killed but finally i got there and now i am happy

If it had to be the hardest i'd say the blood ravens space marines HQ
Try putting up a defence with the tau broadsides being kicked the "£!"!!@ into by hellfire dreadnaughts space marines armed with rocket launchers and predators the result is all your forces get pounded and earth castes geting smashed about like footballs.
Even playing the necrons get a kicking from them.
eldar can be a little easier due to thir stealth abilities, but heck if one of those chaplains decides to have a walk to smell the flowers of your area say bye bye.
Orks were worse every time you warcry the space marines drop some termies in for fu an that was when i got close to their base!!!
IG=NO CHANCE
CHAOS= burnt at the stake
the key wasto me in the end was too combine several tactics at once
started go get easier with it then

ELder stronghold is a quite annoying map in dc
all u need to do is to capture the requisition points that on the
less of enemy place.
after that, build the artillery tank and use the earthquake shoot with the scan(command station).
Use few squard of IG with battle command
and hold the middle critical location and use the artillery tank to clean the enemy on the higher stage.
around 10mins, most tank and elder squards are dead

I think that the chaos and the elder are the two hardest factions to beat. because the elder attack in numbers and dont stop untill you have taken some of their strategic points. i have started a campaign with the Space merians Imperial guard Tau and the Chaos and i think that the ideal faction to use is the imperial guard. The guardsmen are not the strongest ever but they are good to hold points for you, untill you move the rest of your army forwards.

not being funny but what is (DC) ?

1 thing that is annoying is that is when you are playing as necrons in carrer is that when you verse caos and imeriall gard when u have all of the base things

thats alot of battle reports, i couldnt even read them all but very good. the most people have said about is the eldar being the hardest,on the other hand i personally think the necrons base is hard..
