The third expansion, Star Kings, gives us the track From Within the Void, a quieter, more atmospheric yet equally catchy combat track that sharply contrasts with most of the other, more bombastic, combat themes, providing a more foreboding and tension-filled vibe that goes surprisingly well with large battles. The other combat theme from Invasions, Element of Surprise, is also pretty catchy, but never seems to play during normal gameplay, either it has been Dummied Out and only exists in the game files, or only plays during a specific event in the Invasions campaign. While Invasions' main combat theme, Carnage Abyss sounds worthy of its name and can give off a strong sense of urgency, desperation or ferocity depending on your situation in a fight. The expansions add some new music of their own, the main menu theme of Invasions arguably stands out among the other menu themes, and fits the insidious nature of the Shakarn. Mechanized Assault is also pretty epic and can really capture the feeling of a massive invasion if it plays at the start of massive 3v3 stack battles. Wave of Hostility, is a fantastic, high-intensity electronic tune perfect for huge colony fights, whether you're trying to punch through the opponent's defenses and claim their colony for your own, or on the defensive side and trying to hold of waves of enemy troops trying to take what isn't theirs. 
Some of the combat soundtracks stand out, however. Awesome Music: The overworld soundtrack can be a little forgettable, but still atmospheric.
