WH40K: Dawn Of War - Games Workshop Redeems Itself??

Posted by Shambler on 2004/09/10 19:07:42

Saw a few comments on GA and thought it might be worth it's own thread as this could be the saviour of Games Workshop's otherwise deeply unsatisfactory record at failing to combine the rich atmospheric and action-orientated depth of it's table-top gaming universes with anything that approaches a truly impressive and contemporary game.

Since the demo has been out a few days - what do people think?? Is it just the same old tedious RTS bolleaux that is desperately and transparently relying on the table-top gaming connection both for sales and to cover up for the fundamental lack of gaming substance....or not??

Discuss...

I still need some more people to play against, will probably have to start playing Zwiffle again LOL, or just joining random online things (which I'm not so keen on, would much rather play #func pps I know).

I'm game.

Lunaran's Tarsis

So I played Tarsis in team with a friend this weekend. We both played the Space Marines since we haven't quite figured out the other races yet... As opponents we had a 2 player team of Imperials controlled by the pc. Skill settings was "Hard" (the medium one :> ).

We both played the map for the first time and thus had some trouble not getting lost. The beginning was hard as it always is with the fucking Imperials, heh. But when we finally had our artillery we had an rather easy win. One rush with everything we had gotten and both Imperial bases were down.

What I liked most were the ice passages on the outer limits of the map (ugh, know what I mean?). And since the map is great for artillery and I love artillery... ;) It was a bit big for us 2+2 though, not too big but it could have been smaller.

I'm looking forward to play Coriolis Force.

Do you guys have any recommendations on good 2-4 player custom maps?
