Dawn of War II: Retribution
http://www.gametrailers.com/video/gc-10-dow-ii/702965
http://community.dawnofwar2.com/blog-post/dawn-war-ii-retribution
Coming in March with pirate Orks as the campaign and a mystery new playable race. I'm hoping for the Imperial Guard because that would just be awesome.
On a more current note, I'm trying to play through regular Dawn of War II on primarch difficulty and dear god it's hard. I'm thinking of stepping back a difficulty and starting over.
So yeah, DoW thread.

ULTIMATE MANEUVER!
STEEL RAIN!
Speehs maahreeeees
EDIT: Still only have the original DOW2, not the expac.
Can I play with the new kids?
Tau is where it is at.
"Do not ask how you may give your life for the Emperor. Ask instead how you may give your death."
Bein' a Kaptin is like the best thing they could've done for an Ork campaign.
AND HE HAS A PIRATE HAT AND EYEPATCH!
It's almost like he's the bestest ork der' eva' wuz
GIMME SOME FUCKING IG!
Keeps showing me that creepy skittles commercial.
It's like I am in hell.
Okay you're losing points here.
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!
For the Greater Good I can not, will not, stand-down.
I earz ya, I wants ter rend some humiez from limb ta limb.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Stand down!?
HA!
Abandoning your post, treason, heresy.
Punishment, death by hanging.
Cleansing flame is the only true way.
Report to the Administorium for re-assignment and further training.
I have not seen that since the Warcraft 2 expansion!
Dear satan I wish for this or maybe some of this....oh and I'm a medium or a large.
I have waited too long for an orc centered 40K game
and now I get pirates too?
all is well in the world
I just wish Dawn of War II was more like the original in multiplayer
I bought that game under the impression that I could build a shitload of Tyranids and have a giant swarm of them overwhelm my enemies but noooo, I can build like three squads of them and that was the cap
What the hell, Relic
I should reinstall Dark Crusade. The Orks in that game had a late game ability where their most basic unit was made free. That's how I wanna play my RTS games

I loved the first dawn of war to death and after company of heroes with it's bunkers and barbed wire i was all geared up for a dawn of war 2 with barricades and added defences.
Then they removed base building all together
Dont people like building things anymore?
All this talk of pirate orks sounds very interesting though.
I never played multi, but I thought the campaign was fantastic. The last expansion for DoW let me down pretty hard in that area. The one after Dark Crusade.
I only played the beta of DoW II but it just seemed to me in all the stream-lining they took out a lot of the fun and character the first installment had. I guess enough people I know agreed with me because of all of us DoW fans that were playing the beta together I don't think anyone actually picked the game up after it launched.
Also it had the Tau who are awesome and I could have like five full squads of Fire Warriors who just tore shit up with their railguns, it was awesome

Building bases in RTSes is the worst. I want to manage my damn units getting ripped to shreds over here, not worry about optimal traffic flow in my manufacturing district.
Or more precisely, economies in RTSes are the worst. I'd be into slapping down some guard towers and tank-traps at the start of the match and then not worrying about buildings for the rest of it.
I played and loved Dark Crusade, but I thought DoW II was even better (talking single-player here; I'm not much for multiplayer RTS). I don't have the micromanagement skills to control more than about 4 squads effectively anyway, so it was perfect for me.
For me the best part of dawn of war was capturing an important point and filling it to the brim with turrets so my army could move on.
In dow2 requisition points dont even have guns on em!
Removing guns from things is not an improvement!
So I just play them, never had an aptitude for the regular Multiplayer in the game.
But I would have liked basebuilding too
Level 1 characters are not especially fun, but the higher level ones with insane wargear are.
You guys can still build turrets.
You just have to play as a Techmarine, Plague Champion, or a Mekboy
Edit: Guess I'll go play X-Com Apocalypse now.
You do realize that the Tau laugh at Titans right?
Doesn;t really matter how many dudes you have in t-shirts when you have shoop cannons everywhere and use, you know, actual battle tactics.
XBLGT:Banzeye SC2: Apollo.394
Still waiting on any of these games to involve Space Wolves somehow, because come on. Space vikings.
Campaign for each race, yes!
