About the Game

This is an expansion for: Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War

Deep under the central desert of Kronus, a vast honeycomb of skull-lined tunnels and funeral chambers house the awakening Necron menace. Eons ago, these were the boulevards and squares of a great necropolis built to house the bones of the races who had fallen to the Necrons, and ultimately were where the Necrons themselves retire to spend eternity. Over millions of years, sand and rock had covered it all until ill-fated excavations awoke the deathless.

Play any of seven races, striving for control over Kronus. Take other races' strongholds by winning challenging battles on various maps individually associated with the respective strongholds.

  • New Races
    Take command of two new playable races: Tau and Necron to unleash massive carnage across the frontlines of battle.

  • Expanded multiplayer
    Dominate opponents online across 12 new multiplayer maps - with up to 8 players battling it out for supremacy.

  • Deep single player campaign
    Conquer the planet of Kronus any way you choose - leading any one of seven races on an epic crusade through an all-new, non-linear single player campaign where you can experience unique storylines from each race's perspective.

  • Customization
    Customize your hero's weapons, items and abilities as he grows in power and influence. Personalize your army with a variety of insignias, squad colors, banners and names.

I play until I complete it once a year. The game is excellent, I have good memories of those days. There are a couple of things that I don’t particularly like - a limited number of certain units and the number of the army as a whole, and I don’t remember in which part, capturing points for a while, it would be better if they added another place for battles. modern strategies besides old craft are completely bottomless. They can’t even stand next to such old men

играю до полного прохождения раз в год.игра отличная,хорошие воспоминания о тех днях.есть пару вещей которые не особо нравятся- ограниченное количество определённых юнитов да и количество армии в целом и не помню в какой части,захват точек на время,лучше бы добавили ещё одно место для сражений.современные стратегии кроме стар крафта полное дно.им даже с такими старичками рядом не стоять

Great addition. So I recently completed this addition, although it is no longer an addition, but as a separate game since the mechanics have changed a little. Now we are on the planet Kronus, and we are given a small map showing the provinces and our opponents. We must not just attack the enemy, but garrison the captured provinces and improve the commander. Unfortunately, the plot here is worse than in previous Dawn of war games. But still, we are shown small scenes, or just text with a picture, where a voice-over tells us the history of this province and what the enemy is trying to do. I played as Space Marines on medium difficulty. At first it was quite difficult since I was very bad at strategy, but online battles in Soulstorm taught me how to play as a Space Marine a little. That's wh… Read full

Отличное дополнение. Итак я недавно прошел это дополнение, хотя это уже и не дополнение, а уже как отдельная игра так как механика немного изменилось. Теперь мы на планете Кронус, и нам дают небольшую карту где изображены провинции и наши противники. Мы не просто должны атаковать противника, а ставить гарнизон на захваченных провинций и улучшать командира. К сожалению сюжет здесь хуже чем на предыдущих игр Dawn of war. Но все же нам показывают небольшие сценки, или просто текст с картинкой где нам закадровый голос повествует историю этой провинции и что пытается сделать противник. Я играл за космодесант на среднем уровне сложности. Сначала было довольно не просто так как я очень плохо играл в стратегии, но сетевые баталии в Soulstorm научили меня немного играть за космодесант. По этому я… Read full
