Had my first DoW: DC battle in about a year last night online.
Was a 3v3 on Kasyr Lutien and my team kicked arse with me kicking the least amount of arse but still holding up my end with diversionary attacks and drawing the enemy out.
We were a combined team of 2 Space Marine armies and a Chaos army against Space Marines/Tau/Necrons. Great fun!![]()
ok since i have no life apparently.. whos up for some DOW tonight, i just went out and bought the 4pack, cause i lost my original 2 disks
DOW is practically the only game i play now used to play table top 40k but the pc game is just easierGo Eldar!!!!!!!
Space Marines = BORING!!! im really against marines mainly due to the fact that they have been made to be too good and that every 10 y.o. brat always plays them just for the fact that they win so easily, at least with table top playing anyway. They are also very generic for the lack of the better word all they have is there base marines and the only real differences they have is oooh look at that he has a heavy bolter and dont get me started with terminators hey look they have a 2+ save hmmmm.... thats not good enough so we will give them a 4+ invulnerable save as well!!!!!
Oh please. Eldar are the most generic, predictable and boring race ever. Space elves indeed. They're the biggest cliche ever concieved from everything elven.They need a plasma bolt up their arses to knock them from their high horses.
I should mention though, I really loathe micro management. Space marines are perfect.![]()
Code:O o _ / -------------------------------- | IMMA FIRIN MA LAZAR!!! \_--------------------------------
I don't think Marines were ever to good..(yet). Reliable and straightforward yes, but various other denziens of the 40k galaxy are capable of kicking there power armoured butts. the Tyranids and the Dark Eldar for instance. They certainly are prolific though which is a pain, but as they account for over 50% of GW sales I can hardly see this changing any time soon.
Anyways in the tabletop world the Spacemarines get more variety next month with thier umpteenth codex, perhaps we'll learn the reason why they never had variety is that variety WOULD make them too good.
Perhaps because I am a wargammer I just can't get into the whole DOW multiplayer thing, while I have the game and the first expansion and played it all the way through. Multiplayer RTS are just to much about unit spamming for me. I sure do love those DOW finishing move animations though.![]()
Anyways everyone know ORKSES is da bestest!
