Meet the Family
Hail to the Dark Eldar, masters of death, lords of speed, gods of terror.
In other words, the Soulstorm demo is WIN.
The enemy are in disarray, ride them down as they run
Send them to their violent graves, don't spare anyone
Dead and wounded lie all around, see the pain in their eyes
Over the field an eerie sound, as we hear the raven's cry

That would be the awesome screenshot, and if it wasn't explicitly stated, Dawn of War Soulstorm.

Re: Meet the Family

Re: Meet the Family
Dawn of War Soulstorm is the latest expansion to the Dawn of War series, marking the third expansion. It adds two more races to the game, the Dark Eldar as shown above and the Adepta Sororitas, AKA the Sisters of Battle. I think it will be epic for there is nothing more I want to see then Astarts vs Sororitas and even more importantly, Farseer+Seer Council vs Dark Eldar Lord+Incubi Retinue.
I'm sorry, were you saying something?

Re: Meet the Family
Archon and the Incubi (in my opinion) would probably lose because isn't the Seer Council several times larger than the Incubi retinue? The whole squad is Archon + 5 Incubi, and the Farseer has better beneficial abilities than the Archon (something that makes enemy units attack each other and a movement lock + life drain to Archon) as well as just... more. The retinue seems to be much better overall than the Council since they can actually kill infantry in ranged, though. Haven't actually used the Seer Council in a while, though... nor do I play Eldar much. But Dark Eldar? Oh, yes.
On a sidenote, I don't like calling the Sisters of Battle by their acronym... SoB? >.>

What are those purpleish icons? What do they do? [ones above name]
yuuki o misetsuketemo tsuyogattemo hitoei de wa iki.
Re: Meet the Family
Both the Dark Eldar and the Sororitas feature a new system of points as well. See how there is another number below requisition and energy? For the Sororitas there is a number that measures faith, to allow holy acts of the emperor during game to help win a war. For the Dark Eldar I forgot whats its called. But yeah basically the higher the number, the more icons you can use, the better off you are.
I'm sorry, were you saying something?
Re: Meet the Family
I'm talking about the icon, that sorta looks like a lightning bolt and the others I want to know what they do. I.E blow the sh*t out of a single unit, etc.

Re: Meet the Family
The one on the far right is Soulstorm, which basically unleashes a purple psychic hurricane that owns ANY unit it touches (your own or the enemy's). The green cloud thing eats away at armor, units in there take more damage from DE units. The lightning bolt damages and prevents them from using abilities briefly. The one with the crosshair briefly gives a squad/vehicle detection, the one next to that lowers the morale of all enemy units, the purply face between the green cloud and Soulstorm recharges all abilities.
The resource is called Soul, you harvest them from corpses or from a certain building.
