Dawn of War is probably the best strategy game around at the moment.

It is 9,000 times better than C&C3.

It still has a ton of players, and more new ones because of the cheap triple pack deal they've been doing.

I was the Eldar back in the day. Then I started building an Ork army when after they changed the rules and started redoing thing.

I've been reading some old White Dwarves and wanted to start playing again.

Dawn of War is immense. Best strategy game I have played for years. Single player campaign ends a bit on a low note though (and its only for Space Marines).

Dreadnaughts ftw.

On a personal note, Space Marines are for pussies.

I hope they bring the Tyranids in a game eventually. They are badass.

There's an unofficial mod out that adds the Tyranids that's actually meant to be pretty good, but I've not tried it.

I'm a bit more fond of Relic's other RTS, Company of Heroes, these days, but Dawn of War is still an excellent game. I really need to dig it out and play it again, since I never did get very far through the single player campaign in Dark Crusade.

The only army I have left is a nicely pained Dwarf army in a carry case, untouched in a fair while.

I haven't been into the table top stuff for about 3 years, but Dawn of War and the expansions recreate it nicely.

The multi-player is excellent, especially 3v3 and 4v4.
