Then wat is this then?

Well any news about Relic's opinion or say on this?

Hi everyone, I've been asked to let you know more information is on the way. Sorry for the radio silence!

Dude, seriously....you being one of the veterans of this game, i didnt expect to hear comments such as this from you.....atleast you could wait till it comes out to pass your pessimistic comments.......I honestly would like to see what else they could do n wait for it to come out before i pass my comments on this......atleast there are ppl out there that still see the value in DOW.......and there are also ppl out there that still play DOW for casual play.........

It just looks to me that youre becoming more EA.........thinking churning out games regardless whether they are good gameplay or not and just as long it has eye candy....ppl will buy.....

Horus Heresy: Collected Visions

Here is a book about everything you need/want to know about horus heresy. pretty expansive tough.
The novel's are a more detailed version of what happend. and this 400 over A4 pages are just the synopsis of what happend in the Horus Heresy...

We have no need to look it up.

We have an excellent forward scout: Cheesenium 

Air units!! This might look intresting.

Hmm You can call a ThunderHawk!! Infinite OB!!

But iam worried having Air Battle  as it isnt in the T.T element. Having air units require you to have AA units which WH40K dont have much emphasive.

Air elements?

I will guess it will be like the strifing run in COH.

Ever since, we noticed you tend to dig out info from all corners of the globe to inform this thread.......we do appreciate it..

From Games for Windows article:

"So that is the new playing field in SS: A star system called Kauvara, consisting of 4 planets and 3 moons spread out over 31 territories, in which gamers will now do battle."

"Joining the slaughter this time are 2 more races - the dark eldar and a yet-to-be named second race. The DE are the darker, eviler version of the elf-like eldar - agressive pirate raiders. Most crucially, they have the unique ability to consume souls. When infantry die, they leave behind a purple mist called "soul essence" that only DE players can see and then harvest as a 3rd resource, which they can then use to purchase powerful global abilities called soul powers."

"Further complicating the balance issues is the addition for the 1st time of air units. Every race is getting them in SS except fot the necron. Air units won't be affected by terrain, and therefore can go everywhere on the map. They won't be squad based, nor will they be able to capture control points - but they will be able to destroy structures built on them."

"Speaking at multiplayer, relic is introducing a Battlefield 2-style reward system for online play. The new system will award medals for a variety of archivements-such as winning 10 ranked games in a row, or winning a ranked game with a 5-to-1 kill ratio."

Stand alone expansion

What could the 2nd race be??
As in real life football or Winning eleven?

Thanks for the info.....however, i think balance will be worked gradually by the new dev teams....we just have to hope that they do it good.....

9 races... O_o Interesting yet complicating... interesting in the sense that I can expand my hobby with 2 more different set of skulls, complicating in the sense of you need different skill set to get those new skulls....

What other race left to be added to this new expansion other than nids ??

Think of it this way...this dev will not be spending most of its time making a new game but rather proving itself by patching the game that they have already done......still lets wait and be patient, in time all will be revealed......

Are you sure ?? They are the developer for Titan Quest.. Looks like another small studio....  they doesnt look any better than Relic to me though..

It will still run on gamespy unless they change the network code and port it to relic servers...

But still with the new dev, they may have the option to port it to relic's servers......increasing the value of DOW to the online scene......Maybe a little persuasion from the fans of the game would encourage them to do so.....if they do it.....it will be a huge patch....
