I've heard "Dawn of War". Is that the right one?


The first one is more in line with Starcraft with elaborate base building and tech trees. The second one only has 3 buildings (space town hall, power generators, and turrets) and lets you focus on managing your squads of Space Marines. It emphasizes ranged vs. melee and terrain bonuses more. Morale is a factor too, you can demoralize a squad into running away. I enjoyed both and finished them while Starcraft II sits at halfway through. It's especially a great deal when Steam discounts the whole GOTY package.

            DoW is the pinnacle of the RTS genre. It's all you NEED, scrub! NT by Mischief Maker 03/29/2013, 7:02am PDT NEW
