 Warhammer 40K: Dawn Of War
This game kIcKz t3h a22!
Reminds me oh so fondly of Starcraft. No great deal of tactics, just simple assault and hold manouvres with awsome unit types.
The dreadnought is fast becoming my favourite unit in the game. I use them with the chain-cannon upgrade. I use one just in front of each space marines unit. It provides excellent support with that weapon, and if theres a large group of infantry, or some armour, i just charge the dreadnought into melee mode and it smashes everything to a pulp.
Aw man. Love it. Brings me back to my WH40K days.

Indeed a good game, nice brutal warfare. Although the single player campaign does drag a bit to the end. Have you also got the expansion?

Yup. There is an offer at the moment where they throw in the expansion for a little less.
Imperial Guard are pussies.

Aw man, just threw my tactics completely out of the window. I just discovered Terminators. These pretty much fulfill both roles of the Marines and Dreadnoughts, but in one. Now, for vehicles, i have replaced the Dreanoughts with Predators so i can still have an anti-armour role.

Warhammer 40k's unit design ftw...I loved it. I think Pig played it online Def, might wanna take your prowess to him.
P.S. and buy Barbarian Invasion dammit...you call yourself a RTW fan?

lol, granted, that's also cool...but no night attacks, hordes, and roman generals starting their own faction for you.
