I'm just wondering if anyone else plays Dawn of War. It is quite possibly the best strictly RTS game out there, with all sorts of interesting concepts in the game. Anyways, if anyone else plays, let me know. I'd love to play a game with someone sometime.
I can not tell, is it just me or do we all look just like

I agree, it's a really fun game. You don't know Warhammer 40K until you've heard the Space Marines charge in yelling "FOR THE EMPEROR!" The only thing I don't really like is the cap limit on units.

The only reason I was calling it Fritos mode was because I had no idea what to call it that would be shorter than 8-12 letters... So wait, are you saying we ended up causing a 30 post long flame war because of some misunderstanding?

There had to be though otherwise there'd be way too much going on at once. Besides, controlling squads of multiple units at once more then makes up for that. As for the Rez orb, don't even need it. 3 Tomb Spyders and your set, every enemy that dies gets gathered and you spawn new squads of Warriors, Flayers, or Immortals. I prefer the regen shield, stealth, and fear combo myself with the Necron Lord.

I play, though I never really got into it though, it was quite difficult to manage and play things, probably because WC3 was my first RTS, and I'm so use to it.

Yeah its very different from WC3 but the tutorials actually help alot to get the basic idea of how the flow of the game works. Other then that, all I can suggest is the campaign missions to refine that and finding a team that works best for you (so far my best are Eldar, Tau, Space Marines [they're easy as hell to use] and Necrons).

If you want fun, I suggest you download the Tyranid mod. Zerg on steroids. Very fun.

Well, Dawn of War is actually alot easier to play. Don't don't need to worry about resource gather, just build stuff. You just need lots of micromanaging in this game.

All RTS games are about micromanaging...and I seriously lack that.

Well, if you don't like micromanaging, then download the Tyranid mod and mass the shit outta everyone.

Actually DoW is probably the easiest game to micromanage that I've ever played, at least easier then WC3 because I dont find myself having to tend to my base and any squads outside that I'm using for offense at the same time too much. Anyways, I'll look out for the Tyrranids mod. BTW, for that mod are the Tyrranids playable online and do you know if there is a Dark Eldar mod too? I'm just curious because I'd like to have all the primary armies available to me.

I haven't tried playing the mod online, but I doubt it'll work.

I don't think there is a Dark Eldar mod.

Anyways, here's the Tyranid mod: http://dawnofwar.filefront.com/file/Tyranid_Mod;76253

Yes there is a guy that says that. He's a squad leader for the Chaos Space Marines, the Aspiring Champion. You might also dig the Khorne Berserkers cuz they say crazy shit too, shit like "WHY AREN'T WE KILLING YET!?"

Yep. definately gonna pick this up. The Tyranids are proboably my favorite Battle Group of any in any dimention, better than the Zerg, better than the Undead, and second only to the Decepticons. Transformers, FTW.

FUCK!
I uninstalled it about a week ago, and now I'm trying to reinstall it.
BUT NO! I don't have the god damned manual, how the hell was I suppose to realize I had to keep it? One would expect it to be on the box, christ.

Anyone have ANY clue as to how to get the CD key with the manual?

You could try to look for a Code Crack program or something like that, but for games I don't usually trust those since they usually won't allow online play. Unfortunately, if you cant find it, the only other thing I could think of is to get the Platinum Pack that has the original and both expansions with it already. It's only $40 for all 3.
