    Hey all, I played DOW dark crusade and soulstorm a LOT, and recently got the DOW 2 huge collection on steam during the summer sale! I beat all of them, and my favorite faction is the Tau. I hope they will be added at some point. Being able to be crysis suits or fire warriors and take down your foes before they even reach you is why I love them so much.

    But for now, in light of playing the DOW2 retribution campaign as the Eldar, I think I will be sticking to playing as them when this is released. Always had a thing for energy weapons and mechsuits and since there are no tau yet, the Eldar are the next best thing. Gonna get me one of them huge walkers and stomp some infantry while slicing up tanks.

    I also hope the Imperial guard is added at some point, maybe make that a choice for free to play users a few years after release? Both the Orcs and Imperial Guard rely on numbers (besides artillery and baneblades) to win.

    (disclaimer) Everything I say I base off the strategy games, as that is the only warhammer game I have played, though I plan on getting space marine in the near future. So if there is something non lore friendly or changed since DOW 1 or 2, then feel free to correct me.

    *Edit* now that I looked through some profile names, I think I should have chosen something more fitting, rather than what I use for everything....

    Welcome to the crusade, you check out the eldar models on the stream last night ? Looking pretty good in my humble opinion. Good that they will look pretty as the Space Marines mow them down without mercy :D

    Welcome to the forum, please take your time to organize your profile and look at all the sub-forums.

    A greeting.

    I didn't get to see the stream, is it on youtube yet?

    And I know it is very early in development yet, but the eldar wraithguards get those guns that do AOE damage but take a while to recharge? They seemed kinda OP in DOW, especially if you have a lot of em.

    Dire Avenger
    Fire Dragon
    Dark Reaper
    Swooping Hawk
    Howling Banshee
    Striking Scorpion
    Warlock
  6. Aww, Godsmote beat me to it. For your information/interests, the Eldar show up around 32:35 of the 2nd saved Live Stream.

    Huh, thought I saw something about wraithguards being in it, hope the wraithlords are a sort of vehicle that the Eldar can use like the other factions tanks

    Thanks for the link and timestamp

    Welcome brother, are you going to play as a space marine or a heretic?
