DAOT satellites annihilating Necrons fleet

"Myrmidonius Ghelf wrestled with the ancient and impossibly complex systems of Shivarik's Constellation. Paranoid whispers within his augmetic cortex warned that the weapons had been sabotaged by his detractors, and convinced the dangerously deranged Magos to disable the satellites safety regulators in the hopes of forcing them into operation. Deep in the void, twenty-five weapon satellites from the Dark Age of Technology crackled with sudden overcharge. One by one their corrupted machine minds achieved choristry and their micro-thrusters propelled them into an arcane alignment thousands of miles across that had nothing to do with Ghelf's increasingly frantic commands. Energy weapons that had been ancient when the God-Emperor ascended his Throne thrummed to life and prepared to fire.

The first volley lit the firmament with coruscating lines of inimical energy that bifurcated one tomb ship, eviscerated another two, and scythed through four Imperial warships. Cries of alarm filled the Human and alien communications networks alike as Shivarik's Contellation realigned with incredible speed then fired again. More warships from both sides died even as their crews attempted to understand how their shielding and defence measures had been so contemptuously bypassed. The satellites realigned and fired, realigned and fired, each volley leaving behind it incredibly complex glyphs that overlapped one another against the blackness of the void. Flaming wrecks tumbled through space, venting escape craft and blazing wreckage. The one-sided battle descended into anarchy as some shipmasters sought to escape the wholesale destruction while others, gripped by zeal and xenophobia, attempted to capitalize on it."
