![]() ![]() The single-player campaign is essentially the same story told six different times, albeit from the perspectives of the protagonists from each faction. The tutorial and first level are very basic and break down damn near any aspect of the gameplay, and as you get more units and gear unlocked you can just experiment with different things to see what fits for you. ![]() However, if you thought they were interesting games but didn’t quite understand them or get a chance to pick them up, Relic has done a pretty good job of easing new players into the game even the story has a pretty good outline of all plot points early on. If you didn’t like the first two games, Dawn of War II: Retribution isn’t really going to change your mind. And speaking of races, the Imperial Guard are finally in the game, rounding out the total to six. Retribution is a standalone expansion pack that features new units, maps, gear, and campaign that continues the story, though this time all races are playable. While the lack of base-building is a touchy subject for a lot of gamers, the ability to focus on what I’m doing with my troops instead of worrying about making sure I have an expansion bay or a science building to make certain units is great for people like me, who really just want to jump right into the action. ![]() The Dawn of War games are easily my favorite in the RTS genre, and Dawn of War II has been a turning point in what direction I prefer not only the franchise to go in, but the whole genre. ![]()
