New Chaos Rising

“Dawn if War II divided the fans when it crashed down onto our hard-drive and flexing it’s power armoured muscles and ranting about the warp. The new gameplay and exclusion of everyone’s favourite Nutcases, the Chaos Space Marines, turned many people off, as did the inclusion of Games For Windows Live. Nevertheless, Relic have decided to give he fans some of what they wanted with DOWII’s first expansion, Chaos Rising.
Boasting a new and improved campaign that addresses DOW2’s issues of map repetition and limited battlefield objectives, Chaos rising picks up where DOW2 left off, allowing your xenophobic genetically engineered super-soldiers to become even more super. This means a higher level cap, new combat abilities and lots of shiny new toys for your troops to play with.
A lot of attention has been given to the depth of the campaign too. Top of the list of new features is “corruption”, a new story and gameplay mechanic that ties into the corrupting influence of Chaos.
Throughout the campaign the player will be faced with moral choices, such as whether to risk destroying a sacred building during a battle. Going against the principles and ideology of the Blood Ravens chapter will add to your corruption level. The bad news is that this will turn you to the dark side of the Warp, but the good is that you will unlock new chaos-like powers or wargear.
Like all true evil, however such powerful abilities and equipment are paid for dearly, with an ability that increases your damage, for example, draining your health at the same time.
DOW2’s story promises to be a little more interesting, with the return of Elphias (the leader of the chaos forces in DOW DC) and an increase in communication between such characters and you.
If this wasn’t enough the maps are recieving soem love too, with a wider variety of battlefields and the arrival of, in the words of Relic, “catastophic destructive events” later on in the story. An attempt to outshine starcraft 2’s rising lava, perhaps?
Like the original DOW expansion, DC, Chaos rising will be playable stand-alone, and those who own the core game will be able to access the new choas faction when in multiplayer. With all these fixes, features and a new faction, Relic look set to repeat their history of delivery solid dawn of war expansions.”
