How does DoW compare with other games? I hear many positive comments about it.
|
Game moves fast due to the fact there is no resource farming. Resources are granted overtime based on how many strategic points you hold on the map. Also victory can be gained in multiplayer by controlling x %of key points, x% of total points or annihalating your opponent.
Games alot of fun. |
Got this for xmas and only recently started playing 2days ago. I used to collect Eldar a long time ago on the tabletop game. So i'm trying to get good with Eldar in this. Only problem is that Eldar specialist units are only good at one thing only and well... can't do anything else. Any tips/replays/build orders from pro DoW players would be nice.

I got DoW right when it was released and we played it pretty hardcore for a few months. I found Eldar to be the worst race to play on the game but I do know a few others that could hang as Eldar.
After playing Orcs for quite a while I switched to SMs and could pretty much dominate a team match with some of the other SFers that used to get on. Lemmie know if any of you guys wanna get a few matches up. |
If you play Space Marines - get proficient with the scouts. The extension of LOS is really worth the points from the unit allowance.
Just my 2 cents. |
I like playing the comp like 2 on 1. If you can get the space marines to where you can get out 5 of the big tanks its game over. Once fully upgraded they can flatten a base in a matter of seconds.

10 Dreadnoughts - 5 lasscannon + 5 autocannons - almost impossible to lose !! :D

Heres my Build Order for Eld on Blood River map starting in bottom left corner, if anyone has any input please let me know. Early Game: Queue BoneSinger[BS], Gaurdian (x2), Fleet of Feet BS1 build Aspect Portal BS2 build Aspect Portal Guardian1 capture 1st SP Guardian2 capture 2nd SP Queue Farseer Activate FoF on gaurdians - Guardian1 capture 3rd SP BS1 build LS on 1st SP Queue Howling Banshee aspect stone Gaurdian2 capture Relic BS2 build LS on 2nd SP Destroy Aspect Portal upon completion of Farseer Queue Howling Banshee BS1 build LP on 3rd SP Guardian1 capture 4th SP (East of base - Across River) Activate FoF on Banshees + Reinforce Reinforce Guardian2 Attack Queue Dark Reaper Aspect Stone Reinforce Guardian1 Attack Queue Dark Reapers BS1 Build LS on 4th SP Early-Mid Game: BS2 build Power Gen BS1 buildSoul Shrine BS2 build Webway Gate BS1 build Power Gen Queue 2 Shuriken Anti Grav's Queue Dark Reaper + Howling Banshee Queue Warp Spider Aspect Stone Queue Warp Spider Sorry if thats hard to read/understand, but generally it beats most SM players. I've never got to the point where i've had to research mobilize for war... Either i have won by then, or i've been beaten. |
usually if im playing Eldar Ill try to go Orc just to squash the farseer rush at the beginning. I can mass about 20 orcs to take em down fast and keep them from building up fast. Im not really that good with SM against a good fast starting eldar player though.

Orcs is normally easy to deal with when i'm Eldar, instead of Howling banshees i opt for the dark reapers or warp spiders and do the following B/O:
Queue BS, Gaurdian (x2) + Fleet of Feet Queue Aspect Portal and Power Generator Queue Farseer + Reaper or Spider Aspect Stone The above seems to work pretty well against orcs but against SM or Chaos i find that dark reapers don't do so well against the armor. But i'm improving all the time on online play micro is getting a bit faster etc and i can normally squash an insane SM or Chaos in under 6 mins using Eldar. |
