The 3rd expansion of the dawn of war series and the last effort of trying to milk the dawn of war series. This one bring in a new element called air ships and two new races called the Dark Eldar and The Sisters of Battle. It uses the same risk style of mission campaign as in Dark Crusade but instead of one planet it uses 4 different ones. The new game play element of air units is done very poorly.

Yep, the game I looked so forward to is finally out and its a massive...(in anticipation I decide to keep you waiting) amazing. This has been a game to wait for this year, and should win itself a few awards. From massive epic scale battles to easy but interesting empire management, the game is a killer. You start with one planet, but have the option of conquering solar systems of up to about 20 planets and even to a galaxy which can hold 5 solar systems. This means massive empires but no worries on to much micro management, the game has a simple yet still fun way of managing you empire from a side bar which shows all planets and everything inside them. With such a large area to make you empire and for it to keep fun this game will suck away all your free time. It being an rts you will find a hard time to find a place to stop. Trust me, I will try to play this game for only an hour and then 4 hours later and probably some sort of social event gone by, I am still playing and conquering ...
