Jul 4, 2005

Dawn of War: if ever a game was built for expansion packs, it's this one. Relic's characterful Warhammer 40,000-inspired RTS (PCG 140, 90%) may have featured a generous four armies to play with, but there are plenty more in the 40K universe that would - and inevitably will - lend themselves wonderfully to the PC treatment.Enter Winter Assault. The well-trained eyes out there will immediately recognise the forces of the Imperial Guard in action: the very backbone of humanity's future fighting ...

WH 40K Dawn of War rises again (News)

Feb 15, 2005

was probably the most successful transfer from tabletop to desktop since Wes Cherry thought about making a Windows version of Solitaire for PC, although it was probably about . After numerous clumsy conversions of Games Workshop's world of Warhammer, Relic's realtime strategy game converted more gamers to the delights of Space Marines than a holy water cannon.

Warhammer 40K: Dawn of War (Review)

Sep 29, 2004

To date, nobody has made a great Warhammer 40,000 game. How's that? Just look at the embarrassment of riches the potential developer has at its fingertips. A vast and detailed backstory. Ready-made combat units. Army structures on a plate. That's half the job done already. And what delights have we previously been served up? Chaos Gate. Final Liberation. Rites of War. Fire Warrior. Up until now, the 40K-on-PC pedigree has been rather more Chum than Winalot. Yet everyone who knows 40K ...

Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War (Feature)

Apr 5, 2004

ACTIONWe're looking down on a war-torn cityscape. The camera swoops to ground level, where we see rubble-strewn streets and, looming above us, once-great gothic structures: part cathedral, part factory, all flying buttresses and imposing porticos. Their once-grand facades are inscribed with the visual narrative of war: bullet holes, plasma burns, shattered brickwork. We prowl along the road a little further, then launch skywards to view the tableau from above once more. A unit of blue-suited ...
