That's a very precise release date. Bet they rush the final features and then fail to deliver proper patches... Oh wait, they're not published by EA, we might be alright...

EDIT: Woah, those spacemarines just got owned...

Still looks good, and if it's as good as the original Dawn Of War..... Plently of people will buy it though (me included) just because it has Tryanids... Hope it has the Imperial Guard. Unlikely but, I can hope.

Weren't they in Winter Assault?

Yep but like Commisar I'm hoping they come out in the original DOWII instead of a later expansion

Doubt it.* The confirmed factions are Craftworld (as opposed to Kabalite) Eldar, Imperial Space Marines, Orks, and the Tyranids.*

Guards vs Chaos Marines just screams 1st expansion pack to you, doesn't it.* :

Yup, could you explain the difference in the eldar? I haven't player TT since I was about 7

Oh, I forgot this was a different game - I'd been thinking of it as a further advancement of original DoW; so I just assumed it'd have all the factions which were there before... Looking forward to seeing how the existing sides (orks and marines are the only ones, right?) are changed...

Good Elves and Bad Elves.

Yep. Though it would be cool to have a Guard and Ultramarine Vs Tryanid Campaign, Think the first major Hive Fleet (can't remember the name) that entered the Imperium, still that might be the campaign anyway since the guard aren't essential.

Heard anything about the army creationg part of the game?
Are there going to be buildings at all or a similier system to Mark Of Chaos?
My moneys on no buildings, from what I've read on it.
