    Fingers crossed it's back to a proper RTS, got plenty of hours out of the first instalment and expansions. Pretty graphic trailer!

    Glad I'm not the only one excited about Titans! Never seen the point in a Warhammer 40k RTS without Titans. I'm hoping it's not some sort of Starcraft clone though...
    An Atlantean Triumvirate, Ghosts of the Past, The Centre Cannot Hold
    The Pillars of Britain, Foundations of the Reich, Cracks in the Pillars.

    My books are available here for Amazon Kindle. Feedback always welcome!

    I loved the original Dawn of War + expansions, couldn't get into the 2nd though. Hopefully this is a return to the roots of the series!

    It's more that *craft is a warhammer clone

    I greatly enjoyed both DOW1 and 2 - quite different games, but both brilliant. 1 was more traditional RTS, 2 had more of the tabletop feel (with insane action added) for me - there was no base building in the table top game!

    I've no idea about base building in 3 yet, but they've captured the different races nicely, which was missing from 2.

    Very interested in this one, have been looking forward to it, hopefully they won't go off in some weird direction as really enjoyed 1 and 2.

    On a sidenote I have Battlefleet Gothic, which has been quite fun so far

    I'm sure I read that it will be closer to DOW1 in regards to unit count.

    Just a shame they won't even give a year of release yet, going to have to try and forget about this one for a while!

    Looks ok, similar to the previous games, which is no bad thing.

    Hopefully reviews will be allowed before the game is released.
