| Since Kat made a review, why not I? And yes, I know this is an old game, but they sold it including two expansions (Winter Assault and Dark Crusade for under 100 Norwegian Kroner (really cheap), so why the heck not?  I've been playing DoW for a while (Since August) and I must say, it's impressive. This game brought me to the famed Warhammer-universe and also resurrected the little I had left off RTS-interest. I have always loved RTS, but I haven't got the opportunity to play it until now. EDIT. Moar detail added mkay.  Watching Space Marines and Orks shooting and swinging their swords while capturing Strategic Points can't be more fun. Destroying the enemy with giant Dreadnoughts and Plasma rifles while fighting side-by-side with a friend makes me feel like a  ! The Campaigns, OH THE CAMPAIGNS! (Haven't made any progress but the third mission because of the sexy Skirmish and soon Multiplayer-buttons) The expansions adds new teams (Imperial, Necrons, Tau) and enhance the gameplay even more. Yes, this makes me happy, this game. Even custom Banners and Badges makes me go  The gameplay and 3D reminds me of Warcraft 3, which I was a huge fan of for some time ago. The squad-styled infantry reminds me of Rise of Nations. But the graphics own both of the games. (Warcraft 3 = Polygon blobs, Rise of Nations... 2D) The terrain-effect (Hiding in a wood) that gives your units protection is something that I have missed for a time now. By the way, missing. The units can actually miss stuff in this game! That's making it even better. Conclusion  : Classic. Awesome. More awesome.  : It won't work on Windows 7 without crack-install the whole piece. Also, it is hard at the start to control, but isn't that normal for RTS-games? I'm giving the game a 5/6. It would have been 6/6 if it hasn't been for the confusion I had in the start.
GAME APPROVED

As I said, I'm drugged on sugar. Maybe later, I'll make it longer and better. Also, Kat:
