i heard they were redoing alot of the WAR engine and the games actually stage was reverted back to Alpha. That pretty much means they are making huge major changes for it to fall back that far.
YESSSSSSS!!!
good looking out GP!
More blood for the bloodgod
still waiting on warhammer online. no beta for me so the wait continues. My friends all got into Hordes from privateer press so I just nabbed some Trollbloods and plan on building an army so I can play that along with them. Seems cool so far.
For soulstorm, one thing I just kind of want is the grey knights to change into their terminator versions, you know, the popular one. Power armor knight grey knights are lame. x___________-x
I got it. Played quite a few times
The fucking Dark Eldar are ridiculous sorts of broken. They can build without having to be there, they got magic spells, and Their top tier Relic unit is a Pimp ass pirate ship with a deathstar lazer beam. i literally mowed 80 terminators in one fight. shit was awesome.
I cant wait to let the galaxy burn in the next expansion.
I’m still waiting for my demo on BT…but how do flying units fare in the game?
Can they be attacked from the ground?
Since 90% of the units in Warhammer are units with ranged weapons. Pretty much all air units can be attacked.
I was unable to play the space marines, but they did have air units harassing the hell out of my base during the second playable map. The Grey Knights are stronger then ever against dark eldar.
I played some of the Soulstorm Demo…DE FTMFW.
At first, I thought DE were broken as hell when using the tutorial. Arachon has some sick abilities once leveled up. The one ability to make enemies turn on eachother is too good.
The Dais of Destruction is the shit…that sweeping move is awesome against turrets (annoy the hell out of me), and it has women on the plane…WOMEN! That made me laugh for some reason…Dais of Destruction is a pimpmobile. I hope that stays in the final build.
Still, DE looks like a race I would really need to keep an eye on, especially to keep up with Incubi for the Archon, and the morale of the Warp Beasts. I haven’t used the Soul specials yet, except for Corrosion.
IMO, DE looks to be beast on Tier 1 and 2, because I was getting my ass handed to me early in the game. This may be a race I’ll stick with when the full game comes out.
The soul specials to me are way better then any defense you can think of.
if you think about it if you have enough souls collected, you can cast some of the most destructive spells and if someone got into your base, with those debuff and damage over time spells you can totally fuck up several squads with just your resource turrets
Also one of the best starting units in my opinion are the mandrakes. they are just so sturdy for being such a weak looking unit. definitely have a starting ground gain.
Gametrailers updated with previews …The Confessor and Pentient Engine.
I think they are Sisters of Battle Units.
I love warhammer, but a lot of it depends on who you play. I’ve had some REALLY BAD pick up games with guys that turned out to be assholes.
I also wish they would change/streamline the table top game so the hardcore, 100% of my time type guys and the casual players could both enjoy it. I find it hard to play WH the way it should be played with full terrian, nicely painted models, full armies, fluid understanding the rules on both sides, codex memorized so you don’t have to continually check for things like spell casting difficulty, and still have time for 3s, GF, and life.
I don’t know how they could change the game to keep the hardcores and the casuals… I guess thats where the PC games come in.
The third and final Expansion to Relic’s Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War series is coming out next week, and of course…I’m going to get a copy.
My marines shall thrown down with the forced of Choas once again!
Soulstorm should be out in stores now…I’m gonna get my copy today.
Vampire Counts are officially released tommorow. The new list looks brutal and low magic defense armies like Ogres are going to have a rought time. Time to build my Popemobile Stank army from hell for the 2008-2009 GT season.
Got my copy of Soulstorm…and it’s more of the same thing as Dark Crusade. Not that I’m complaining about it…
I was hoping that it load without CD, but I guess not for Soulstorm…maybe it takes effect on an update patch.
I’m doing the Space Marine campaign first, and I’ve already noticed some things:
Armor and ranged upgrades are in 2 stages.
Grey Knights require Monastary and Sacred Artifact.
Weapon Upgrades are down to 4 units/ SM squad.
Apparently, the SM aircraft can be taken down quite easliy…or that I suck at attacking efficiently.
Otherwise, I’m liking the game so far.
^ To me the flying units arent really that effective in this game. its more of a jumpack character that never comes to the floor.
BTW GREAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT NEWS GUYS!!!

I’m still playing SM campaign on Soulstorm…damn takes too long to beat for me.
Is it me…or Tau just too damn strong this time around?
