I do honestly believe that all these updates to the DoW games and adding DoW 2 to the Make War not Love event (and it won) is to see how much people want a new Dawn of War.
It struck me almost as a ploy to keep the License. As long as they release something in a set time-scale nothing expires it leaves them options to do more
It doesn't actually tell us anything though... They could simply have registered it to avoid other people taking it. Believe me when I say "I want to believe." Because I do. Dawn of war is very near and dear to my heart. But I don't think it will ever live up to the dreams and hops that I have. ... Especially not if they use the bulletin system from COH2 and other such... Silly mechanics. Or the commander system. God help us all.
I hope this points to dawn of war 3. And not some sort of expansion for dawn of war 2. Or worse, increased focus on the last stand mode.
