The Dawn of War series has been very popular, well designed and as pretty as there were bloody; THQ and Relic even managed decent add-ons that surpassed your run of the mill DLC for the most part. The trailer below gives you a CGI tease of what Dawn of War III might look like when brought to you by Sega and Relic. Those who preferred DoW II are in for a very unpleasant, even heretical, surprise; according to what Rock, Paper, SHOTGUN have heard, the base building of the first instalment is coming back. They do promise to continue the equipment customization of heroes from the second game; here is to hoping they are not just talking about silly hats.
"This isn’t the first public mention of Dawn of War 3. That was way back in 2011, when Relic were still owned by the now departed THQ. It’s likely safe to assume little of that original plan remains."

I liked the base building and
I liked the base building and larger scale of the first game; the second didn’t really feel like much of an RTS – even the tabletop game is larger scale. This announcement is especially nice considering how few true RTS titles have been released in recent years.
Why they showing this now? My
Why they showing this now? My fingers getting itchy all of sudden. 😀
My only gripe is again Blood Angels. We have so many unexplored chapters in the W40K Universum. Why again BA? Why not Imperial Fists or Salamanders?

And WTH cares about 1080p upload…! If it’s good I will deal with 320×200 – good old DOS.

I'm betting partly on licensing terms with GW who have a long history of being complete and utter smegheads about their IP.
