finally! a strategy game that DOESN'T SUCK!!!!!!

User Rating: 8.5 | Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War PC
By Legojake94 | Review Date:
To be honest, I never did care much for strategy games. Some would be boring, (Mechcommanders 2), others would be WAY to hard (MIcro commanders). "Star trek armada" was just a mix of both! But then i played THIS strategy game, it made me LOVE strategy games again. It even made me give the OTHER Strategy games another chance, (only to be reminded how much they sucked).

Anyway, enough about my "life story", The Reason i love this game SO much, is because it's unlike any other! It let's you see your characters throu objects (instead of EVERY view being blocked by something, then you wouldn't know where everyone is). It let's you build your own base, and fortify it to your heart's content! The level of upgraded characters and buildings is pretty good. Build this, to unlock that, then capture this, to wield that.

Each of four races, has some kind of advantage or superweapon (Eldar: teleportation. Space marines: orbital deployment ( it's kinda like paratroopers) Orks: Giant Rhino juggernaut. Chaos, bloodthirster dragon.)

The ONLY thing i DON"T like about this game, is the BORING Campaign. (i've never even finished it!) The REAL fun, is in the skirmishes. YOU chose the races, YOU chose the rules, YOU chose the Level.

If you DON'T like real-time strategy games, this'll get you to like them!
