Dawn of War is set in the futuristic version of the pen-and-paper universe (there’s also a fantasy version of the franchise, which also has a big-name RTS in development).
The gist of the thing is this: Dawn of War is a fast-paced RTS that could best be described as result of a lonely night where Starcraft had its virginity stolen away by its younger, hipper sibling, Warcraft III.
Overall though, Dawn of War is the most fun I’ve had with an RTS since Rise of Nations which was released almost two years ago (and then Warcraft III before that).

Dawn of War is one of the most anticipated strategy games of 2004.
Dawn of War is unique in many ways compared to the normal Age of Empire's 2 style of game.
