It's not unusual to see PC games get an expansion pack after they're released, though it's rare when a game that's not named The Sims gets a second expansion. So what does it say about Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War that we're now up to Soulstorm, the recently announced third expansion to 2004's real-time strategy game based on the popular sci-fi miniatures franchise from Games Workshop? Relic Studios is responsible for some amazing and innovative games, from Homeworld to Company of Heroes, but the Dawn of War series may very well be its most enduring and popular. However, even Relic and collaborator Iron Lore Entertainment face a daunting task with Soulstorm, as last year's Dark Crusade expansion raised the bar considerably for what fans expect. The solution? Top Dark Crusade by offering even more.

"This week when I was scrolling through my Steam library for a game to play I was stumped, until I found a mod which brought fresh air to an old classic. The game was the legendary Dawn of War series by Relic. The Dawn of War expansions; Winter Assault, Dark Crusade and Soulstorm along with other stand-alone titles like Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine, give the universe the justice it rightly deserved."
The Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War franchise is free to play this weekend and to celebrate Relic have added some new content. From September 24 10AM PDT through to September 27 1PM PDT, Dawn of War I and II, plus all expansions, are free to play on Steam.
I always thought those Warhammer dioramas, or whatever they were looked awesome.
Nvm that was how the game is played isn't it? On a big table with hundreds of figures killing the sh!t out of eachother?
Cool looking tanks too...
Yeah the style of 40k is amazing-it's by far my most favorite sci-fi universe, god I can't wait for this game. The only 2 RTS's that could ever top this are supreme an COH but this one will always be my favorite RTS only really because of the unirverse(gameplay is good but like I said supreme shows up and also COH)
a must buy for me i loved the previous expansion packs.
must buy for me to mate
