If you're a Dawn of War or Warhammer fan - Dark Crusade is a must buy! If you're not - get it anyway!
Dark Crusade features an all new turn based territorial campaign, which is not only fun - but addictive. During the campaign you can unlock new war gear for your commander. This can include new weapons, boots, helmets etc. This brings an RPG like element to the already fun Dark Crusade campaign. The campaign also has excellent replay value because you can play through it from each of the 7 different factions perspective. Yes, you heard me: 7. Dark Crusade offers 2 new factions, the Necrons and the Tau Empire. Both of these are completely unique and have a very different play style to the existing 5 factions which add to the already expansive Warhammer experience.
Owners of lower end machines will be happy to know that Dark Crusade has low system requirements. 256MB RAM in fact. But it still looks great! You don't even need Dawn of War to run Dark Crusade on your computer! Provided you don't mind missing out on playing the 4 original factions online.
If you're a Dawn of War or Warhammer fan - Dark Crusade is a must buy! If you're not - get it anyway!
