Sequel announced on April 3rd. I just found out.
Find it here: Dawn of War II
Now if you don't mind, I need to throw myself into the freezer to calm down.
(Screw SC2, I've been waiting for this...)

Yeah i heard about it, me and some guildies/friends are looking forward to it, the old Dawn of War series has become something like a The Sims dramatic remake with all those expansions, im not saying their bad, hell they increase the gameplay ofcourse, but the Graphics, Game Mechanics are almost completely unaltered since the first one, its time they moved on.
It's not just better graphics, they are also overhauling gameplay in general, they've learned from Company of Heroes and will mix different things into it, Time Will tell though, but im sure Relic is better then *just* brushing up the looks a bit.

No, no more Air Units.
Yes, a little like Empire at War, in the way of providing (extra) troops thrue hardpoints (they are even more important now).
In short:
Their will be much focus towards a select few squads (6 for now).
Hundreds of troops each one more scarificable then the other is over (not even Orcs).
Also you will now take every squad you have from the previous mission to the next with you and they will be 'customisable'.
You can unlock Shoulderpads, Flamer, Suppresion Rifle, ...
And not only your squads but also your very own hero made just the way you want him and as the story progresses even add weapons/armor to him. (for example, the Thunder Hammer *huge melee hammer stolen from a dead Orc*).
And from the lesson they've learned from Company of Heroes, vehicles (Speed Freakz for Orcs, Dreadnoughts for Space Marines, ...) will be all-pawning but very precious.
Another lesson from CoH will be artillery (Orbital Strikes from Space Marines ships in orbit around the planet) will blow buildings to piece, enemy's out of their trenches, destroy enemy cover and anyone caught in it to shreads ...
One last things, you won't be the only one with a Commander/Hero with you. Enemy's will also have Commanders of their own (Warbosses, ...)
That's basicly somes it all up.

ROFL AT AIR UNITS.
OH Right, it floats i guess, sorry but im a Warhammer fan, i like the game, but i'l be honest that That *air Unit* addition was just pure marketing, its not something truly vital to either sides, and basicly the balancing/special about Air Units isn't present alot either, only the Imperial Guard got 2 bombers instead of 5 air units which are alot stronger, but then again, Imp. Guard always had stronger vehicles but had only limited infantry (weak, cannon fodder, good for not alot)
Anyways, i do firmly believe in Relic's Experience in making games as they've over the years released alot of good games, that DoW:II will also be a good game, just keep in mind the original without any expansions was released quite some time ago, thing's dont last forever if you just keep brushing it up a bit.

Screw the chaos gods. The Emperor could take down khorne or nurgle any day.
And this game looks awsome. I'm definetely gonna have to speed up the process of buying myself a new gaming rig if this is going to be out by next spring.
And supposedly the Tyranids will be a playable race with DaW 2, since they feel the graphics engine will do them justice.
And lastly,
