The expansion would be excellent but for the fact that it has show-stopper bugs that have yet to be patched six months past release date.
An example of such a show-stopper bug is an infinite resource bug in one of the expansion races. Anyone familiar with an RTS should realize just how critical a bug like this is, but here we are, six months out with no patch.
Buy at your own risk.

I have to say, I had my doubts about this from what I had read, but I've been playing it, and it rules! Obviously there isn't a huge amount of new stuff here, but the campaign is actually really solid and interesting; the Dark Eldar and Sisters are both really exciting to fight against, at least, and are totally new. I'm not a hardcore RTS strategist and mainly play the game for the atmosphere and polish, and those are both really great here. The visual and thematic elements are great, and this campaign easily equals or even exceeds Dark Crusade's. Too bad Iron Lore is dead :( Hopefully warhammer stays this good!

I have loved the Warhammer 40K Dawn of War series. They've brought a futuristic setting in a blood lust Strategy game. Kind of an RTS on crack if you'd ask me.
The gameplay is very cool, lots of gore and interaction. With Campaign and Skirmish modes, you can decide to rule the galaxy or just battle it out with your enemies.
I personally like the Total War games better, because more strategy is supplied in the game. But, Dawn of War has brought alot of fun interactions.
I would only get this if your computer can handle it though. I've been able to play all the other Dawn of War games except this one without serious issues on my computer. Dawn of War: Soulstorm demands at a minimum: Windows 2000/XP; 512MB Ram (for 8-Player multiplayer); 2.0Ghz Intel Pentium 4, AMD Athlon XP or equivalent processor; 3.5 GB free hard drive space; 8X DVD-ROM drive; 64mb direct x9.o compatible AGP video card with hardware transformation and lighting, DirectX9.0 compatible sound card, 16 bit; and ofcourse Keyboard and Mouse.
I believe the reason i had issues playing this game is because of the dvd rom drive because i dont think it's a dvd rom... or because my Dell Laptop doesn't have such a good processor...
I have a Dell Latitude|D600, it has played Total War: Rome with minimum to no problems, all other DoW games flawlessly, Counter-Strike online on minimum settings with hardly any low fps on good servers, and World of Warcraft with lag spikes here and there. I think it's just because i beginning to go out of date lol.
Plus, laptops aren't exactly the best thing to play games on unless it's actually made for it. And if you want a laptop made for it go to AlienWare, because they are definitely the best for a price. A very not so nice of a price =P... but if you've got the buck, you can get the best.
Anyways, Overall the game was fun on my friends custom desktop and i would recommend it to anyone who likes a good stretegy game to anihilate your enemies in. I hope you enjoy the game as much as i have and believe like me that this is a great sequal to one of the best strategy games ever.

Okay firstly I want to compare this game to other r.t.s. games, I mean you've got ages of empires, command and conquer, and the blizzard r.t.s. games, you know, Warcraft and Starcraft, but this expansion along with the two previous expansions and the orgional smoke all those. Well I think this expansion caps off the Dawn of War series perfectly. 9 teams, tons of maps, dozens of ways to destroy your enemies, this game is awesome. Goodbye harvesting minerals, lumber, food...vespine gas?...Capture strategic points, relics, and critical locations to get a jump on your enemies. This game breaks so many barriers long set by Westwood and Blizzard it's not funny, design, versitility, heck even the sound bytes from the units are awesome: "do you hear the voices too? I must KILL!" as spoken by the chaos Marines. "If it moves kill it."-Space Marines.
This game takes Starcraft, Warcraft, and Command and Conquer and blends them together, from reinforcing dying squads, to acquiring a special unit when a relic is captured this is the awesome end to the Dawn of War chapter. Anyone who critisizes the water not spashing right when units move through it needs to get a degree and get job designing games, other wise, build an army and blow crap up with the rest of us.
Beginners to this game do not be afraid, buy the complete set and hit up the tutorials, play skirmishes to practice, then hit up the campaigns, you'll have a good time. Check out the roster of voice actors too, you might be surprised who lent their voice to this game. Dawn of War has raised the bar for real time strategy.

I have all of the expansions and this is about like the rest. I gave it a 4 because it is more like a 3.5, as it adds only a little. I love the Sisters and really enjoy playing them. More for the price maybe?
