00:00In Mechanicus 2, every battle on Hecateus IV is shaped by its leaders.
00:09Unique commanders whose abilities redefine how their forces fight.
00:13Today we're diving into two of them, Tech Acquisitor Scaevola and the Necron Lord Omenech.
00:19As a seeker of Xenos technology, Scaevola's power revolves around her forbidden knowledge mechanic.
00:25The more cognition points you store, the stronger her abilities become.
00:31Such radical practices carry consequence in the form of Xenerite Instability.
00:37A volatile energy feedback that lashes out at random, striking ally and foe alike.
00:43To fuel Scaevola's unstable cognition engine, recruit servitors who generate data through their programmed sacrifice trait.
00:50And Electro Priests, whose machine right trait provides a steady flow of cognition each turn.
00:55Within the Mechanicus Tech Tree, upgrades like Preparatory Data Meditations and Cognition Banks expand Scaevola's resource control,
01:04starting missions charged and preserving vital data between them.
01:09Meanwhile, granting servitors the Rush Upgrade ensures her constructs can reach the front lines early to begin generating cognition.
01:16In the Reliquary, Scaevola herself can be augmented, combine upgrades like Unstable Overload and Master of Xenerite Technology to weaponize her own instability while shielding nearby units.
01:29Further expand the build with Unstable Powerfield, allowing her melee strikes to unleash instability directly and Teleportation Matrix for quick escapes.
01:38Alternatively, Scaevola can be turned into a frontline menace.
01:44Acquiring the Eradication Ray, Temple Copia Skill and Nanophage Manipulation allows her to devastate enemies and inflict damage over time,
01:51before consuming inflicted debuffs to recover her HP as needed.
01:55Omenek is one of Nefeshah's first deployable Lords, a versatile commander who excels at reanimation and Dominion generation while commanding a diverse array of Necron units.
02:09Central to all of his builds is the Master Trait, acquired in the Lord's Chamber, which generates Dominion each time a Necron reanimates.
02:17Unlike the Mechanicus, Necron leaders recruit units from their own personal upgradable cores rather than a shared roster.
02:26For Omenek, unlocking a Technomancer and upgrading them with Rites of Reanimation is an incredibly strong synergy,
02:34resulting in reanimated units near the Technomancer being given a powerful buff to their armor.
02:41Each Lord can be further customized with Relics and Command Protocols.
02:45The right pairing of these unlocks an extra bonus called Dynastic Resonance, in this case, the Eternal Revenant,
02:53which lets Omenek skip his own reanimation timer entirely, reviving instantly when defeated.
03:02Most Relics and Command Protocols are unlocked by awakening the Necron tech tree.
03:07Here you'll also find Immortal Servitude, a pivotal upgrade for Omenek's Resurrection build,
03:12allowing Necron units to rise twice instead of once.
03:17Alternatively, you can focus Omenek on rapidly generating and sustaining Dominion
03:21to unleash the most powerful Relics and Command Protocols available.
03:26Like the Royal Touch, which instantly executes a target,
03:30and if it's your own unit, Omenek is healed and gains a surge of Dominion in return.
03:34Two leaders, one a Master of Cognition, the other of Dominion,
03:42each offering a different path to victory for their faction.
