Despite its age, the first entry in the series can easily be considered one of the best RTS games - and Warhammer games - of all time. One Warhammer fan likes the game so much, he decided to create and 3D print some custom terrain inspired by some of the buildings. EonsofBattle is the brand name for a pair of tabletop wargamers who run a YouTube channel and a Patreon page dedicated to Warhammer 40K, where they cover everything from painting tips to in-depth analysis. Their latest video is a detailed walkthrough video about how one of the duo - inspired by Relic's building design for the Space Marine faction - recreated from scratch the stronghold and plasma generators and 3D printed them for use on the tabletop. While the stronghold and the plasma generator is the star of the video, EonsofBattle actually creates enough terrain - the rest of it bespoke - to fill out an entire Kill Team board. This is Games Workshop's skirmish-level 40K game, which uses fewer models and has a simpler ruleset. Read the rest of the story...

It's certainly the best Warhammer 40K game, although as far as 'old school' Relic goes Company of Heroes is considered the better game, in many respects. In the years that followed it would get several expansions, the most recent of which being the 2008 stand-alone release called Soulstorm, which built on Dark Crusades' campaign layer but made it across an entire star system. We'd also get full sequels in the shape of Dawn of War II and Dawn of War III, but the original holds strong above them all. 12 years later, this aged strategy game is being kept alive thanks to its modding community. Mods are the life-blood of any strategy fanbase and are what allow these games to remain popular over long periods of time, like we've seen with Star Wars: Empire at War. It can even inspire developers to renew support for an older game, like what creative assembly did for Total War: Rome 2. Coming back to Dawn of War, we've done some digging to find the most popular mods helping keep the game live after all this time. Read the rest of the story...

It s like the finger of an extremely angry god, a column of flame that can be dragged around the planet surface, disintegrating any unit that it touches. Eldar become brittle silhouettes, elevated by the white heat for a moment as if undergoing a warped Ascension, and then they crumble to ash.

Homeworld of Gabriel Angelos, Cyrene is now a ghost-world of ruined cities and ashen fields. Fight for supremacy amidst the remains of Cyrene’s once-mighty temples. Claim the three critical locations at the heart of the ruins or drive into enemy bases and deliver annihilation. • In Dawn of War II, we’re giving away four free sets of Wargear; The Vanguard, Sniper, Sternguard, and Destroyer, to equip in the main campaign that were previously only available as pre-order DLC, or as rare loot drops. Now everyone will be able to equip items like the Veteran’s Grenades, Blade of Ulyus, Armor of the Destroyer, and many more to complete your sets!
