Plasma cannon here I come.
None can resist chaos...
This look like great fun, the melta gun maybe a little broken if like the table top...

They may be getting an update with the release of Codex: Chaos Space marine legions or the white dwarf codex : chaos rengades. But that would have to be when the 6th edtion is released.KnowYourOnion said:
I really want to make Night Lord raptors, Iron Warrior havocks, WordBearer chaos space marines.
Though the game looks, frankly... almost TOO good, like it's a trap, all it mostly reminds me of is that on the tabletop game Space Marines have almost every other release and Chaos is still working with an old Codex.
I'd like to play a Chaos army, but currently there aren't that many options if you want to win once in a while and still choose what you want.
Will they be using any of this character creation technology in Dark Millenium? Is that still happening?

Was a little hesitant about pre-ordering the Collectors Ed. and that I generally think multiplayer isn't that good, will be definitely trying it for this game. Nice the EB Australia's preorder bonus is the Golden Relic Bolter and Chainsword, multiplayer weaps only it seems. Extra shininess.
So, no Orks in multiplayer then?

That's the reason I finally stopped playing the tabletop game. I spent a boatload of cash, time, and effort in making my Iron Warriors army. New Codex... Screwed up. Now my best units aren't legal.KnowYourOnion said:
OT: While not a pre-order I'm definitely looking forward to this.
Yea, that was what made me stop loving and start hating Games Workshop. At least you can use guard & chaos marines for their own armies. My friends and I designed all sorts of strange mutants using the beastmen, skaven, and zombies... And we don?t even play WarhammerF.KnowYourOnion said:
But in our little group, we have enough armies to keep things interesting for those 5 or 6 times a year we have a game so we just stopped getting new rulebooks, codexes, and minis. In a way I should thank them for breaking my addiction to white dwarf and everything else that had been going strong since the Rogue Trader days.
That does actually look like a good traitor guard army but it?s lacking all the weird mutants that were the face of the Lost & Damned...for me at least. Nothing gave me more joy than forcing a few units of space marines into pouring all their fire into your horde of plague zombies while my assault & brute mutants flank them. Hell, I even had fun losing when I used that tactic ? it was the chaos variation of the old gorka-morka tactic.Major Tom said:
My friends and I have actually just stuck with the 4th edition. It?s not like we go to tournaments or anything anyway ? we mostly just battle each other.vxicepickxv said:
You know, I was really looking forward to having the Sisters in DoW. I even tried the mod for it and yes I should?ve just stuck with that. They actually did a pretty good job on the army, while screwing the Dark Eldar. The biggest problem I had with Soulstorm (single player) is that it was pretty much exactly the same game every playthrough. In Dark Crusade (even though the armies started in the same spot) the migration of the armies meant you fought different armies at different strengths depending on who you started with. In Soulstorm (even though they were supposed to migrate) the armies were more static.Nikolaz72 said:
I thought there were more (they?re talking about Dawn of War 3 now) I traded with a friend: Soulstorm for Chaos Rising. None of my friends bothered with Retribution so I never even tried it.Frostbite3789 said:
Soulstorm was for original Dawn of War.GonzoGamer said:
Retribution is easily one of the best xpacks in the series. Also it dumps GFWL, one of the biggest problems I had with vanilla 2 and Chaos Rising.
Yea, but my friend had never played Soulstorm and had gone back to DoW1.Frostbite3789 said:
I probably will pick up Retribution eventually but to be honest it isn't a priority and it seemed to turn off a lot of critics who IMO tend to usually candy coat things.
'You not supposed to use ranged weapons! your supposed to run in and melee each other!' - I could see this going the way of the whiney shotgun obsessives from Gears of War berating anyone who didn't just run in for a shotgun clusterf***.Lawyer105 said:Unless they do some serious balancing on the (only) melee class, the game will die in multiplayer ignominy as everyone starts to play one.
Think HARD about the multiplayer games you play... if you were:
1) unbeatable in melee (presumably, since the others are ranged classes),
2) had three times the maneauverability of any other class (jet packs are awesome), and
3) could probably get away from any combat you were losing until the odds were stacked in your favour again,
would you play any other class?
I might... because I'm a masochistic moron in games like this (the fluff says Tac's are more experienced and better trained than Assaults, so damned if I'm playing anything else!). But I seriously doubt the majority of the screaming fanboi's would.
So yeah... MP is going to come down to the melee balance.
I'm not even going to start into comparing a bolter to a lascannon until the melee is balanced.
Terminators?! They are game-breakers. The only way to make them work is for them to have slow but powerful attacks and not be able to run to justify their ridiculous armour. Yeah, I can so see players enjoying that... [/sarcasm]RadiusXd said:
