New Dawn Of War Expansion.
 
It's called Soulstorm, and gives your 2 new races and Air units.

Dark Eldar and Sisters Of Battle.

Or, Chaos Space Elves and Nuns With Guns.

Anyway, I downloaded the Demo and gave the new DE a whirl. They're quite fun, like Eldar, but evil, and they all have these Skimmery craft that all look similar to those Skiffs from Starwars, but evil. Heck, the Relic Unit, the Dias Of Destruction, has little grovelling Slave-Girls on it. <3

The DE Units are pretty fast, but fragile as all hell. The only real way I stood up to things like Space Marine turrets and tanks and so forth was either grossly outnumber them or jet in some Scourges, which are like flying heavy-weapons troops.

Dunno what the SoBs (heheh) are like yet.

I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.

Business as usual.

Pre ordered ages ago. Link to demo plz?

Wings of Fire 01-17-2008 06:46 AM

How awesome :D But I still want Tyranids (non crappy mod ones) and actual differentiation between different kinds of Chaos Marines eg: Emporers Children, Thousand Sons and Death Guard.

Khorne pisses me off.

mudling 01-17-2008 07:08 AM

another?
I have the origanal game, and now there's 3 expansions out, don't know if I want to buy them... will have to think about it
Hurry up and make a Dawn of war 2 and I'll buy it I'll say, geez, are they trying to be as bad as the sims (2)?

Hobo 01-17-2008 09:43 AM

Stop complaining, at least the expansions are DECENT unlike The Sims.

Disgruntled Intern 01-17-2008 11:18 AM

Fuck you. The sims 'teen stuff' expansion was better than your whole life.

This is the one I used, but there's also one at Gamespot, etc.

It's like the Dark Crusade demo, 3 missions, Tutorial, Skirmish, and a Campaign example Mission.

Scourges are wonderful.

Nuns With Guns.

"...Blew up a busfull of nuns"
"Hey, that was in selfdefense!"
Man, if a game has Nuns With Guns, I am there...though I am confused :fuzconf:

Laser 01-19-2008 03:46 AM

lol i can't wait for this final expansion for DoW :)

nuns versus hedonists...

a match made in heaven

mudling 01-19-2008 07:20 AM

Final?
I would prefer a sequal, that's all I'm saying Hobo, I don't mind another expansion though, don't have anything against it.

Laser 01-19-2008 09:10 AM

yeah final, apart from other factions of humanityand chaos, apart from 'nids.

mudling 01-19-2008 09:31 AM

Yeah without the Tyraninds it would be a dissapointmeant.
So does that mean there won't be any sequals? Or just no more expansions?

Strike Witch 01-19-2008 02:21 PM

No more Expansions, moron.

Played. Am a bit annoyed they put a fucking stronghold mission in there, as well as the DE epic unit. SPOILTASTIC.

The DE are pretty cool, am loving some of their specials.

Tyranids won't be in any expansions, according to Relic the game engine could not "do them justice."

That hasn't stopped the mod though, which has been released several times already. I wish their wiki was back up, they had some excellent gifs of their animation, including one where three rippers leapt upon a space marine and raped him to death.

Laser 01-20-2008 02:40 AM

every forum should have a gif which has rape in it!
