I reserved this game 4 months before it even came out. I have to say it was really worth it, this really puts good finishes on the original game especially with the Imperial Gaurd, the graphics are great. I love you you can put the setting to have bodies stay and honestly i think that helped alot. especially when we all have this issues with a lack of bodies especially after a HUGE battle where hundreds die. So i have to say good timing with that little add-on. All in all the campaign was ok. kinda cool. Although i didnt like the switching between armies idea they had. That kinda ruined it. But i do have to say im completely and all for the Imperial gaurd especially with all they get. it really adds flavor and spice to the gameplay and the firepower is just awesome especially for those of us who play defensive games. Although i really do not like the AI settings. they can be worked through. And i have yet to try this game online though i want to so badly. so all in all. i say solid game. and this i think gives a great finisher to the Dawn of War series. However i wouldnt be complaining if they came out with another that had more add-ons oh such as maybe some nid's? (Tyrannids for those of the Non warhammer playing types. look it up online and you'll find out what they are.) I give it a solid 10. A definate Must buy for RTS gamers.
