I have high expectations for these games....

Or at least their intro videos.

Winter Assault used the same intro as the original Dawn of War. While it might be one of the most epic intro videos in a game ever, I was hoping for something more.

Dark Crusade returned with a semi-epic intro video of its own. It also reworked the gameplay mode for single player. I personally miss the story driven gameplay.

SoulStorm.....

The intro was lame. Period. In-game rendering vs epic cut scene is always a poor decision.

However, the game makes up for it with how fucking awesome it is. I still miss story driven gameplay though.

That is all.

In an hour of Darkness a blind man is the best guide. In an age of Insanity look to the madman to lead the way.

Yeah, I agree. I just wish they could combine this new gameplay with the occasional story arc. Doesn't have to be story all the time, just keep it interesting.

i want to get a copy but tight on monies, heres what i know so far

1. More tweaks to existing races, Imperial guard actually playable from what I've heard
2. Larger meta map with 3 planets and some moons
3. Each race has there own special power deal for the meta map

It's the biggest expansion yet and has more content than everything that came before it put together.

Dawn of War, Winter Assault, and Dark Crusade were all utterly badass.

This one's intro is crap, but it's the game that counts, and I'll definitely be checking it out.

Still no Tyrranids, though. WTF?

Relic has said time and time again that Tyranids would not come till DoW2 because the current engine could not handle them.
