It's not about AI, it's because they are blatantly the 3 best races and that's why EVERYONE who is high skill in multiplayer uses them.

I just want a comfy campaign without getting my base instantly destroyed by Necron Honor Guard.

I've played the tabletop for over a decade and I've never gotten that sentiment, and I mostly play Smurfs. Almost everyone I know at FLGS love Ork players because they really do just play to have fun. They certainly don't play to win because Ork armies have been bad forever.

Stubbs being a mega incompetent leader with a Commissar that clearly didn't want to be under the command of such a huge idiot that he managed to "lose" 100 fucking Baneblades but somehow always manages to win his fights was fucking brilliant and I wanted that to be canon from the bottom of my heart.

Bigger but much more of the map is taken up by blank space instead of the terroritories unlike in DC where it's like a big board game.

It also just has bad design decisions, like how Honor Guard is like twice the cost it was in DC so the only way to get them is to hit End Turn doing nothing to earn income. Plus the stronghold missions aren't as good.

When I mean blank space I mean how much of the screen is taken up by the territories. In DC over 60% of the screen is taken up by the territories on the map, while in SS it's only about 20%. The rest is blank space, filler.

He turns to chaos at the drop of the hat, but i suppose it isn't that unsual for a psyker.

And like all DoW games it's full of pretty good quotes.

>>375686963

Tau only go insane and fight in melee if their ethereal is killed. The fluff bit that this lore is attached to was from the surviving space marines of the battle. They found that the Tau fought twice as hard when their Ethereal was threatened, but after their Ethereal died? They went bugfuck crazy in vengeance.

The Marines got out, but just by the skin of their teeth and with heavier losses than they expected because they were not expecting the Tau to just straight up stop caring about their own survival. If they had stayed and fought, the marines would not have survived. Tau willing to crash a perfectly fine Devilfish into you and then immediately hit self destruct is no joke, even for a Space Marine.

>>
>>375687652

I was thinking more like it more than quadruples their firing rate but with a huge accuracy penalty. Really give off the impression that they're fighting with pure insanity.

For pure Tau though, Kroot wouldn't be affected as they've never eaten an Ethereal.
>>
>>375687841

He more or less runs the Imperium now instead of the High Lords of Terra in the Emprah's absence, and has evoked a grand crusade. He's also PISSED that he has come back and the Imperium has strayed so far from what his best buddy the Emperor envisioned, because the fact that the Imperium is religious is well...heretical to the Emperor's vision of an empire built on atheism, science, equality, and conquest.

Remember that prior to getting his throat slashed by a poison knife, Rowboat was in fact the leader of the imperium right after the Emprah was confined to the Golden Throne. He was Lord Commander, and ran the entirely of humanity at the time, and is merely taking back up the job again.

Just now he's doing what the fans always said the Imperium should do: confront Chaos directly and march upon the Eye of Terror to end the problem.

Which he wasn't around for. And don't forget there's now a fucking genestealer infestation on Terra. Mankind is facing more wars on different fronts than they ever did in his day. Ironically, he probably faced less daemonic manifestations than the Grey Knights deal with every year.

Guilliman can cry about hope and reason - lets see how much hope and reason help when he has to fight the next full sized Hive Fleet. When that day comes, he'll be glad that the IG perfected meat grinder tactics.

And the other half would have destroyed the Imperium if they weren't willing to take such a hard line against recidivism and heresy. The threat that Chaos represents is mostly due to the perfidious nature of mankind. Organizatons like the Inquisition may do heinous shit, but only because it is necessary.

You can't trust that an entire sector won't fall into heresy and start summoning daemons when people have a natural inclination to grasp for more and more, and the Chaos gods are willing to grant their favors to those types of people.

They MASSIVELY expanded every races army.
I main IG so here's a quick rundown of what I've noticed so far:
>they have an even squishier scout unit called conscripts. They have basically no health and can't really upgrade beyond numbers, but they can be reinforced almost instantly up to 25 units, for 3 req. a piece
>and there's an upgrade that makes them cost no req to produce
>they get basic melee units on horseback that are fast as fuck
>normal guardsmen get access to sniper rifles, flamers, and melta guns, as well as a choice between sergeants, medics, flagholders, or anti-tank support units
>there's like 5 new leaders and support units that can be produced from the HQ and Barracks
>you can upgrade your commander with wargear from the campaign, as well as a good chunk of your other leaders
>there's a building that's dedicated to creating about 10 different versions of the Leman Russ and another for 6 Baneblade variants
>you can make fucking nuclear weapons and that's not even the highest tier
>you can also get Titans but I've never played a skirmish for that long

Blame that on the Emperor and his Primarchs. Man wasn't meant to be ruled over by demigods, and the vacuum the Emperor left in his absence is what crippled the Imperium.

>mechanicus will never innovate, and no other group will ever get the chance to do so in their place, because the emperor guaranteed Mars independence
>space marines are pretty much the best surgically and genetically altered soldiers in the galaxy, and half of them went rogue to fight for Chaos
>ecclesiarchy is super corrupt and basically keeps every strata of imperial society completely stagnant
>the imperiums overarching culture basically revolves around self-sacrifice, mainly in the form of dying gloriously
>all this can easily be blamed on the Emperor

Humanity descended into a dark age because the Emperor was a massive retard who didn't see why some of his sons would rebel (even if it was completely obvious) and couldn't be asked to make a plan for if he died.

I forgot to mention that the conscripts don't take up population cap, either. And that they removed the limit on Ogryns and Kasrkin. And that every infantry unit gets a sprint button, similar to Eldar's Fleet of Foot ability.

Also I have played against Dark Eldar, and I've seen them darting around the map at a ridiculous pace. Like, 8 times faster than normal. It'd be hilarious if it weren't so fucking annoying to hit them.

There were pretty much 3 versions of DoW3, one pre-thq bust, post-thq by another company, and then the current SEGA version which is a mashup of the 2 former ones.

The tortured development explains the mishmash of MP mechanics, but the menus, lack of maps, and threadbare campaign was probably only developed in a short span of time.

Pretty sure only Horus, Ferrus Manus and Kurze are "definitely" dead at this point. They've left the possibility open for a lot of them to return, including Dorn (although it might be a bit weird in Sanguinus' case).

The art style turned a lot of people off

I imagine only having 3 races might have added to it too, not to mention there weren't a whole lot of details about the campaign that I saw.

Also the jump from DoW2 to DoW3 wasn't as huge as from DoW1 to DoW2, they added so many new mechanics for DoW2 that even if the game wasn't amazing it was still worth checking out. I can't really say the same from DoW3. Just compare the campaign in DoW2 to DoW1, it felt like a real 'next gen' RTS.

They did have to wait for the rights and trademark to eventually settle. The end result is obviously not a polished result by any standard. By all rights it should not have been released at all in this state, or at least should have been started from scratch.

I went from DoW1>CoH>DoW2>CoH2 and I could see Relic actually honing their craft. The weather systems in CoH2 was already a big leap in the rts formula.

But here, DoW3 could have easily been an rts thay released 5 years ago.

And in the end no one was. Just look at the campaign. Even DC had wargear to make things interesting and in DoW2, it gave you freedom of selecting side missions. The abandoned space hulk subquest in Chaos Rising was one of my favorites as it gave of major Alien vibes.

In DoW3, all of it is damn linear despite the cycling between 3 factions.

Welcome to Neo-/v/

They dont have friends and never played LAN with their mates

Dark Eldar > Imperial Guard > Orks > Sisters > Tau > Eldar > Necrons >Space Marines > Chaos

This is definitive and if you argue you are a homosexual

By the time Soulstorm came out, LAN was already dead. RTS was also already on its dying breath as everyone who gave a fuck about the competetive scene got addicted to this custom Warcraft 3 map by Guinsoo called DotA.

Considering the Emperor himself told them how to build that thing, it seems unlikely. Am I misremembering that?

>Tfw you realize that most of the whining against DoW3 are shitters and die hard DoW1 and DoW2 fans.
>tfw Relic will never ever listen to this schmucks.
>tfw DoW3 will become very good through expansions and DLC just like DoW2 and CoH2 did.
>tfw Relic will again make the whiner cucks angry to the point that they wish the company dead and bankrupt like they did since DoW2.

You welcome, the moment I beta tested DoW2 and CoH2, I knew it was going to be a typical Relic strategy title with morbid whining at first then a fine and solid game with expansions and DLC later.

>unless the guys responsible for Homeworld have all buggered off.

Welcome to year 2003, my underage friend.
All people responsible for Homeworld left by the release of Homeworld 2.

Harvest the suffering of the lesser races with the power of the Dark Elder my friend!

Anyone else play Ultimate Apocalypse? I started playing it with a friend and really enjoy it, some stuff is fucking busted but the game is enjoyable. Chaos Demons, Daemonhunters and Tyranids are a lot of fun to play, and some of the modifiers like the one that makes troops die faster make the game a bit harder and quicker against AI.

Anybody still playing DoW2: Retribution - Elite Mod?

Anything cool recent updates added?
I haven't played in a long time, but looking at DoW3 made me want to play again.

No, the Orks canonically won. As expected of the Inferior Guard.

Enjoy your NPC faction, though. It must be so nice existing to fluff up the baddies so the Space Marines look cooler when they beat them. :^)

As someone who plays Soulstorm online regularly I can confirm this is false
