They also have the line "It's dangerous to go alone, take this!" for when you give a standard guardsman a special weapon.
Awesome! Now I feel like buying DoW2: Retribution. Thing is that I suck at DoW2. Like, badly. The horrible matchmaking system doesn't help either. I don't suppose you could help me get better?

Because I feel like it:


This is what a real Tyranid looks like


The reason why Eldar are aesthetically the coolest


'cos everyone loves grand-pappy Nurgle


Someone's always got a bigger gun, so give it up


Since nothing is beyond conversion.

Feel free to buy... if you've got about £1000!

This, Chaos is like the extremists from hell!
not true
well kind of, but you say it like chaos are the only extremists
any follower of the emperor would yell their rhetoric right back just as hard if not harder

and the tau are so blindly focused on their "greater good"
that the only way to argue your point is with a bolter

Alot of input has been made, good stuff guys! Some guy previously said he'd like to get into DoW2 but thinks he sucks. Any pointers?

Personally, i'd say -

Play against the AI to build up some rushing strategies.
Play the last stand
Complete the campaign once or twice
When you feel you know the maps and know which places you need to be, relevant to your team's positions, have a crack at multiplayer.

If you are given a good team, aslong as you back them up and hold the VP and resources, you will be okay. But ANYTHING can change in an RTS. My team pulled back a WIN when we had only 16 points left on the meter to their 372!

Working together is key and understanding your units and their weakness can help you vastly.

Your armies will fall beneath the undead legions!

.... After we get a codex update....
You say that, but the only thing that looks like its changing is that most of your stuff with have T5...but they're getting rid of We Will Be Back.

Besides, nothing can beat the beard-cheese that is Blood Angels and Dark Eldar now.
I take it you haven't seen the new Grey Knights codex then. I've never seen a codex that made me want to rage quit a game that costs several hundred dollars to get into as much as that one.

"For the Emperor and Sanguinius!"

I have been a fan of the Space Marines for a long time, both in the DoW games and the Tabletop; more so Blood Angels.

However I do have a soft-spot for everyone else because they're all awesome.
[sub]Also the fan-40K humour always make my day.[/sub]

On the tabletop, I have to go with Space Marines. More specifically, Blood Angels. Even more specific, convert the entire army to Death Company. I have 4000 points of dudes who have a 50% chance of ignoring any injury sustained. Yes, they cost more than other Marines, but the benefit of having a Chaplain commander who can have 20+ guys in his squad who can all wield power weapons is way too cool. Also, I've gone insane in large games and taken Eldar units as allies, just for kicks. A Death Company force with a few squads of Eldar is too much fun and always has opponents saying "Awesome! Wait. What the hell?"

In DoW it was the Eldar or Necrons for me. Sorry, but the Marines got boring after a while.

DoW2 - Eldar or Tyranids. Not really sure why in that game.

Suggestion for more video games in the franchise - Use the tabletop points system instead of pop cap. In the case of DoW2, have a set point cost you can bring in per mission, instead of a choice between 4 kind of lame heroes. It would be kind of like MechCommander 2, which would be AWESOME!

I have and played them just yesterday, from what we could gather from numerous leaks, etc.

My Guard wiped them out with just a Chimera gone.

I hate you so much.

My Space Marines got raped by Mephiston. He destroyed my Lysander, a ten man squad, a bunch of my teammates Imp. Guard.... and received one wound. I fucking hate Blood Angels for that one bloody guy.
That all? Mine killed a Nightbringer C'Tan.
