Wow, I know everyone can have their opinion, but I don't see how this beats DoW, SC, WC and CoH.

Dawn of War is ok it just has too many upgrades and focuses on "Oh I'm sorry you need to have this researched oh wait you also need these buildings too" I don't like those RTSs as I prefer getting the good stuff now. Plus there isn't a limit to how many guys you can have. Imagine Dawn of War with alot of fucking guys, it'd follow wh40k far more closely as some armies in 40k are meant to have a mass of weak and cheap units like the Orks for example(limit of 50-100 Orks vs 200 units of another race in DoW, what?!!!)

My first multiplayer game was immense. We drew with a tiny difference in score and barely any forces left on either side
Second game I fought some german MW2 lover who ragequit before losing 5 minutes into the game

Either way I appreciate the lack of micromanagement like in CoH

Not sure what you've been training in DoW, but I see far more swarms of orks than space marines.

I do appreciate an RTS every now and then that does away with excessive micro, but RUSE just felt clumsy to me. I wish I could tell my units to attack something without them crawling halfway across the map when their target is already in gun range, and I'm tired of the men saying they can't do that, sir. The concept could be good, but I'm wishing Relic handled it.

All I can hope is that the audience who like simple RTS's like RUSE won't take away development of proper tech and base RTS's from the audiences who do appreciate it.

The ork resource is more like an ork pop. Every single ork takes a ork resource therefore you can have only a 100 orks troops. Vehicles don't and I ignored that because I was referring to infantry. Yes RUSE does have stupid AI I admit that but of course the developers were concentrating more on other things. Also I do like Relic as they have made some fun RTSs like Impossible Creatures(would of been nice if they made a sequel 'cause that was innovative).

But they're cheap and fast to produce. You can often keep your sluggas at 75% while bashing space marines while you're bringing up the heavy armor.

Infantry is ridiculously cheap and can hide in anything which even lets them take out tanks. I had one guy try to turtle and use artillery, but light vehicles (the one from the barracks) and infantry rushing killed it all off.

So far I'm on a 6-hit win streak with infantry and airplanes combined.

I only use paratroopers for infantry.

No doubt infantry are essential, they can capture buildings and ambush ground units. I just prefer paratroopers with my tactics.

My zerg rush from a game just now (with a nice Blitz speed boost from Lucien). It was hilarious.

I just had an awesome 2v2v2v2, me and my team kicked ass. The last team who happened to be our rivals were both Russians. Me spamming paratroopers I eventually captured an enemy armor base and won. Too bad I forgot to save replay fuck.

We ended up blowing up all enemy bases. God that game was insane we racked up at least 14k in points.

Meh. It's kinda boring. Limited gametime is fucking gay, dunno if you can change that though. Played a game versus a computer and got crushed at the start, then realised what I was doing and ended up beating him pretty easily with a heavy tank and two mediums. Meh wouldn't buy it, or pirate it.

I had to spam paratroopers as they spammed 40 fucking infantry every single fucking time when I attacked at that 1 spot.

Yeah, playing a few games against computer tells you how great the game is
