Well people, Today i played the Warhammer 40K Dawn of War Dark Crusade, with the Titanium wars mod. It was awsome! The mod itself extended the game to a point where you get the W40K feel to its max. So i played a skirmish game today and the war is pretty big (Im surprised my pc could handle the amount of armies evrybody had) So it was like this:

Team1

Salamanders (Me)
Imperial Fist
100th Cadian Regiment

Team2

Blood Axes
Red Clan
Craftworld of Uthwe

Well, the match itself was really fun, especially at the part where i had my big ass defense, at start it went pretty well and all, only like 1-2 slugga squads attacked me somethimes when i was building up my economy, and well, 15 minutes later the hell began. The 2 ork armies came with a giant force towards my base, i had a decent defense, but unfortunely that was overun in less then 7 minutes. So i had to retreat to my allies base and sended a servitor to the allies base and began building a new base, while the orks oblitirated my first base. Later when my old base was completely destroyed, The orks began attacking the Imperial Fist, It wasnt long before they where overrun as well, i sended my remaining forces to help them but unfortunely, they where slaughetered in a few seconds. When the Imperial Fist where totally defeated, I started making a really strong defense (i actually started making the defense when the Imperial Fist where under attack since i knew they would come for me next) But the Imperial guard couldnt help us at that moment since the eldar where attacking them, they where able to hold off the Eldar for quite some time. but when the orks came towards my base with their huge army, the hell literly began even worse. My defense was really strong at that moment and i was able to hold off the entire ork horde (the 2 ork armies combined) for 17 minutes long, but ofcourse the eldar was pushing trough the Imperial Guard defense, wich caused me to be attackt from 2 sides, i hadnt been prepared agaitns the eldar attack, so i was literly screwed, and i had no other way to retreat, so it was a fight to the death. and well, i pretty much died after the imperial guard was defeated xD. And to explain about the whole mod thing, The mod not only added lots of units and new stuff, it also modified the pop cap limit for both the infantry and vehicle limit from 20 to 40, and that caused to giant armies from the cpu. So eventually the armies of evryone became so big that my whole pc started lagging after a while. (luckely the lag wasnt that bad considering i could still play perfectly fine), and the map i was playing on, (i dont quite remember the name) but it was in a 3vs3 City Map, was damn awsome!

I would really recommend the Titanium Wars mod for Dark Crusade, since that mod really gives you the feel of the W40K universe.

Hope you liked reading this blog and please have a fun time W40K Fans!
