Better Idea for Dawn of War Expansion

[Sir Degrader]

Instead of having some crappy "Winter of War" thingy, The Horus Heresy would make a better campaign. Really, how much more kickass could you get then an Imperial civil war?

Well then it wouldn't really be 40k, but 30k wouldn't it... [img]smile.gif[/img]

I'd like to get the Eye of Terror campaign as a expansion, all out Chaos invasion.

Or the Ichar VI campaign... Tyranids! [img]smile.gif[/img]

Hell yeah!!! A campaign with Tyranids would rock, possibly something involving the different races comming together to fend off the invading and overwhelming Tyranid forces from taking over completely.

I have the best idea yet. Make it an interesting single-player game. Make it like StarCraft 1 and 2 -- when you could play an interesting game through for each race without having to go online.

Right on TL. I just finished the single player campaign (again) on insane with the new patch...which gives Chaos quite an upgrade hehe.

(Spoilers from original campaign!)

Seems like they could have gone in order, 5 campaigns:

Eldar trapping the physical embodiment of Khorne
Orks fighting Imperial Guard and slaughtering civilians on Tartarus to incite Space Marine incursion
Space Marine single player campaign in original (without the newbie missions lol)
Chaos, with their released blood god striking back wherever they choose in an orgy of death.
Lastly, since the expansion is Imperial Guard, Imperial Guard and Space Marines assaulting and containing the Khorne-Chaos threat to the ultimate no-real-change ending lol.

Thus is WH40k...billions die for no net gain on any front, but a lot of fun doing it

Now, if Relic wasn't relatively small and slow to release things they could add a campaign where the Inquisitors (and Adeptus Sororitas or Grey Knights), who were clearly up to something before the Space Marines got there, could fight Chaos and Orky forces. They could also fit 'Nids in there, because there's lots of blood there for the blood god, right? They could probably even fit Dark Eldar in the early stages of the campaign as Chaos allies for Eldar slaves or something. Of course, I don't know 'when' the eldar did all of that - might have been a Warhammer fantasy thing for all I know.

Right on to you, Lucern. What ever happened to designing a good game in and of itself (i.e. in the single player)?

Are we relegated to online gaming with munchkins to get a good game these days? Me.... meh... I'm not into that.
