Since 2004, Relic Entertainment has been an unstoppable force in creating some of the PC's most endearing RTS games since the likes of Westwood and Blizzard. The original Dawn of War was one of the first licensed Warhammer games that wasn't just a poor and misguided use of the name, and it actually came out during a lull in the RTS genre. After a string of interesting, yet truly unfulfilling expansion packs, Relic has finally released the epic sequel all the fans have been waiting for. But with so many games released between the original and now, and with the likes of a new Starcraft on the horizon, does Dawn of War II really stand out anymore?
"This week when I was scrolling through my Steam library for a game to play I was stumped, until I found a mod which brought fresh air to an old classic. The game was the legendary Dawn of War series by Relic. The Dawn of War expansions; Winter Assault, Dark Crusade and Soulstorm along with other stand-alone titles like Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine, give the universe the justice it rightly deserved."
Sega, Creative Assembly, and Relic Entertainment have teamed up to launch a special RTS promotion that gives away free games. Introducing Make War Not Love 3.
Here is the summary of the Whoops list:
1. Siding With A Murderous Tyrant Leads To Peace
2. Destroying The Biggest Threat To Humanity Destroys All Humanity
3. Helping The Downtrodden Gets A Whole Lot Of People Killed
4. Defending Planets From Invasion Led To A Much Worse Invasion
5. Ridding A City Of Gangs Turned Out To Be A Bad Idea
