REP ME NOAW lol
Good find on the sign up. Was noted earlier Will sign up now anway. Saves me a week. Fiver says this is just a glorified MP demo and nothing really "beta" about it.
If you like legion read brothers of the snake to more space marine awesome, I'm not sure what my issue with fulgrim is but it just left me feeling horribly let down and disappointed Eisenhorn and ravenor are two of the best detective series I've ever read so them being 40k just makes them more epic Sent from my Desire HD
Apparently you're using a HD Desire to send this post... It's true, Ravenor was one of the best books I've ever read! Fulgrim was just fantastic, I just think the ending of Fulgrim was great... it shows Fulgrims true decent into madness.
aye that I did I've now dragged myself out of bed and to my pc so I can investigate the beta lol recently I've quite enjoyed grey knights half detective half space marines worth a read, now starting the space wolf series
not a huge difference in price, but every penny counts these days... Collectors Ed. for 27 quid. http://www.gamepriceuk.com/product/Dawn-of-War-2-Retribution-Collectors-Edition-PC.html
i was going to get Dead Space 2.... but thats on hold for this now. cant afford to buy launch games to often on one go.
http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2011/01/21/ultimate-dow2-retribution-gallery-yes/#more-48502 Holy crud, witness the awesome sauce contained within that thar link. Baneblades, Power Mauls , lightning claws, commissars, bigger battles... oh this is gonna get gooooooood. Oh Land Raider redeemers too
A Manticore! Bloody hell! What in the Holy Emperors name is a Banewolf??? I'm guessing that the baneblade is going to be a bit pricey in MP. Currently looking to secure money to pre-order the collectors ed ASAP.... after seeing all those photos, I am genuinely excited about it now.
No, a Bane Wolf is a light tank that uses toxic chemical weapons. It's based on the Chimera chassis. And can I just say HELL YES! Catachan Jungle Fighters (and not just fighters... Devils, their veterans)! They were my first unit I ever painted! Love them. Interesting seeing Catachans and Cadians fighting together though. Nice to see something other than just Shock Troopers running around. Edit: OMG SWEET! Custom badges finally!!
I just saw the other page: http://www.dawnofwar2.com/us/retribution/multiplayer/newmultiplayerunits Other races getting some nice stuff That LR Redeemer is SO going to hurt in a fight!
For anyone who already has ANY of the Dawn of War games before on Steam... Considering all the games register on Steam, there's no reason to miss out
liked i have noted before... you can just register to the official DAW2:R forums and get in on the beta on the 1st Feb
