Alright, Dawn of War II Beta has been downloaded and installed...I'm too tired to play it tonight but I'll give it a go tomorrow.

I played this with Schlup last night, and I love it!  I like it much better than DoW 1. 

The biggest differences are that there are no builder units, and you start with one hero.  The game feels much more like the tabletop game. 

In this game, you still collect points as you did in the first DoW, but you don't build anything on those points. You can build power generators at those locations, but so far, I have not seen where you can build anything else at all.  It will be much more difficult to bunker down in your home base in this game as there are no turrets aside from the one or two you start out with in the beginning of the game.

The hero character reminds me of Warcraft III, but I like it much better than WarIII.  I never liked War III.  This hero character has a large list of upgrades you can give them as do the other units in the game.  When your hero unit dies, you can respawn him.  The faster you respawn him, the more expensive it is.  When he respawns, he comes back with all of his upgrades.

I LOVE the new game.  I like how it is more tactical and less economic.  I always thought the first one was a bit tought to keep up with as far as upgrades go.  You had to upgrade all this stuff at your base, then you had to upgrade each individual unit, etc.  Then we would end up in these deadlocks because there would be 500 defensive structures blocking a base (Schlup!!!).  I like how there is a count down to keep the game from lasting forever and ever.  I am all over this game.

My only complaint is that easy computer and expert computer are pretty much equally easy.

Hey, don't fault me because I am defensive in nature!

P.S. I still pwn you in DoW2 as well!

Idk about Dow2. I probably will not get it. I'll rather get HAWX and maybe Starcraft2.

Oh I'll bring it!  If you don't like the heat then stay out of Schlup's Kitchen!
