      @BlackDeathViral03 You just contradicted your last post.
      I'm not gonna discuss soviet tactics and crew training or lack thereof,their "early" tanks weren't "crappy", they were completely impenetrable from the front,germans had to catch up to KV-1 and KV-2 at the beginning because they couldn't deal with them,by the time they started using Tigers Russians were already rolling out IS series,won Kursk and only stopped producing the 122mm variant when they made fucking IS-3 which was hands down best design of WW2.
      So at what point exactly were soviet tanks "crappy"?

    018.M41: Newly-promoted Blood Ravens Brother-Captain Valefisk launches a swift and decisive strike against an Ork encampment in spite of heavy resistance from the ork women, and the ork children too. In the ruins of the Ork camp, Captain Valefisk discovers an ancient relic from humanity's dark past, a 5 Disk Box Set of the Star Wars Prequels, which *definitely* belongs to the Bloody Magpies- I mean Blood Ravens, and not to any other Chapter, such as the Imperial Fists, to whom the ancient relic definitely does not belong.
    While dividing the spoils however, Brother-Captain Valefisk runs afoul of his immediate superior, Brother-Captain Computer 1 of the 1st Company, and refusing to share the spoils, the Bloody Magpies come to blows with their battle-brothers, as the Emperor no doubt wills. Unfortunately Brother-Captain Valefisk has not yet had time to study the ancient relic 5 Disk Box Set and gives up the High Ground to his opponent, and is swiftly defeated. Later, Imperial records are altered to show the Blood Ravens instead fighting against Chaos Space Marines, to hide the latest of the Blood Ravens' many shameful failures.

  • @saphironkindris
    @saphironkindris 3 роки тому +4

    yeah, the thing about the AI in this game on hard is that the longer the game goes on, the worse it is for you. You can easily and reliably lock a hard AI into their base in like a minute and just trap them there forever, but if you take the time to build up your own forces at home and your half of the map, they will quickly outpace you in their production and swarm you. They aren't necessarily smart though, and you can sneak a force around to destroy their base while stalemating their army.
    I think how it works is that they have the same starting resources as you, but a higher resource gain. (and potentially higher APM).
    This is really apparent in games where you're outmatched with more than one enemy. If you don't take out one of the two(+) in the first five minutes there's no reliable way for you to win.
    One of the campaign missions exemplifies this when you face 3 enemy factions, each with their own unit cap and vehicle cap. (so, 60 units to your 20, for example.) You either rush the hell out of them, because they don't start built up, or you get hit with 100+ supply attack waves with 3 blood thirsters and it's physically impossible to defend against.
    It's pretty contrary to a lot of other RTS games on harder difficulties where you're rewarded for focusing heavily on defense to build up an overwhelming force.

    Dawn of War is actually pretty friendly to RTS Incompetents. I can vouch as I kinda still am an RTS Incompetent. Though it ABSOLUTELY hates turtlers unless you are the Imperial Guard but even then, AGGRESSIVELY EXPAND LIKE CRAZY so you get such resources that you will soon have more resources than you literally know what to do with.

      @@Hitman2b yeah. I remember once I was playing as the necrons in a ffa. I destroyed the 2 factions next to me. Eventually it was only me and the dark eldar. I built a doomsday monolith and the dark eldar built a titan. I destroyed it with the doomsday monolith easily but then they built another one. Destroyed that as well but they kept on building them. This went on for 20 minutes or so. By this point I built the giant generator (it was a heavy thermal generator I think) and started building great pyramids just a whole row of them (the exact number of them were 3 so I constantly bombarded them) but the dark eldar kept producing titans. I was getting suspicious because all their requestion points were decayed so they should have ran out of resources to build with. But then they also started building 2 of their super structures (keep in mind that they were producing titans for 20 minutes now) that started fireing at me. I eventually lost do to the constant titans they had charging at my base. The doomsday monolith was destroyed by their super structures so I had basically no defense against their titans. This was quite strange because I won a 2 to 1 scenario as the necrons. (I've gone against the orks and the tyranids. My allie was the tau but they died 5 minutes in to the game. I holden them off for so long they ran out of resources so they couldn't build anything and then I simply marched in to their base with ease) turns out if you have a certain combination of options on the ai becomes over powered so I changed the options a bit and everything went fine since then.

    DoW is all about micro! Next time you should give special/hero abilities a try, they can make a difference during battle.
    Mid-late game Space Marine units like an upgraded Assault Terminator Squad or Dreadnoughts (which deliver way better than the Hellfire variant or most other SM vehicles imo) can use the orbital drop building's ability for awesome strikes. Send the units in while holding the first few points with your very versatile Space Marines. Upgrade/swap them depending on the enemies you're facing, which would mostly be light or heavy infantry and hero units up to mid game. Always fill up your squad, leaders are usually well spent points.Then try to tech the better resource efficiency techs so you can outspend your enemies if you can't overrun them early on.
    What I truly love about this game is that most factions have some cool take on the core mechanics, allowing for different strategies. Using the Necron Lord for an epic comeback during a battle, or sexy Eldar Banshees harassing the shit out of the enemy while building a cloaked base right next to them were always great fun.

    I wonder how well he'd do at Dawn of War Soulstorm, or even the Ultimate Apocalypse mod. His tendency to lean towards "Casualties are perfectly acceptable" kind of align with the Imperial Guard doctrine of throwing men at a problem until it's gone. They also have some of the best tanks in the game (like the "11 BARRELS OF HELL" Baneblade), and artillery with stupidly long range (the Basilisk).
    And then there are the Heavy Weapons Suppression Teams, one of my favourite units in the game, which are basically MG nests you can set up where you can't build proper defence turrets, that can even be upgraded to either an autocannon (Jack-of-all-Trades) or a Lascannon (Anti-Tank/Sniper).
