The second is just as good: a fight through a winding corridor of ice to reach a battle with the new Eldar Wraithguard heavy infrantry, followed by a timed mad dash back to the starting point to rescue a squad member left to guard the remains of a fallen Marine. CR’s opening battle sets the tone for the next 14consistently complex and excellently-paced missions: multiple kill-and-capture objectives climax in a defensive holdout against huge waves of Imperial Guard turncoats and artillery barrages. If u loved DoW2 this is a must buy, if u love RTS games this is a must buy, and if didnt care for the original it'll definitly suck u in w/ all the additions.Rooting out a demonic Chaos uprising and unmasking a traitor among your ranks is the goal for your team of elite Space Marines (import your crew from DoWII save files if you’ve got’em).

W/ all that said, this is without a doubt the best expansion i've played in ages. Sound is exciting and heart thumping & add to the atmosphere. Relic is renowned for continuing to support its games after releasing it, unlike other developers, and DoW2 and Company of Heroes are testaments to that fact! Graphics are absolutely gorgeous and u dont need a power house of a computer to enjoy them, its without a doubt the best looking RTS on the market. All users recieve the new units that come with CR for all the other factions, and the addition of new unis for last stand and free for all MP mode makes this a must have game. l Multiplayer has been imrpoved w/ the addition of Chaos faction, which in itself is a badass and exciting faction to play. The SP campaign has also ditched some of the tedious missions from the original, it has some really unique missions that are the best i've seen since Warcraft 3!!(none of that uninspired 'destroy enemy base to win the mission' type stuff, really unique mission designs). The option to be evil and become corrupt or noble and stay true to the Space Marines, also adds to the replayability of the SP campaign. The RPG elements of it make u attached to ur units and the pursuit of better wargear really has u coming back for more. The single player campaign is very intense and really refelcts the Warhammer: 40, 000 lore. The RPG Chaos Rising is a great addition to DoW2.

Chaos Rising is a great addition to DoW2.
