Maybe, but noone cares about those two factions here.

I usually was playing as orks in DoW 2 online. I'd like to see guard though. For some reason i don't like eldar in the computer games but love them on the tabletop. It's about all those aspect warriors. Necrons are kind of cool too. Then we got dark eldar which are pretty fun.

ALRIGHT!!! Now that's what i'm talking about! Sorry it isn't sisters melissia but that's just how it went out. Personally i don't get why the lord commissar is a stealth hero but they should exemplify his badassery. Lord general seems weird as a healer but the reinforcements and mustache could work. Personally would've preferred a psyker squad or a psyker leader like in the codex. It's still fine i guess. This is definitely exciting news. How valid is this source though?
I wonder what multiplayer abilities the 3 heroes will have.

Well we were sort of both right. There was an inquisitor in the guard army. Of course you were more right. I'm only saying sorry because i know how much you love those sisters. Not saying sorry because i'm sorry but rather because i got what i wanted and you didn't so i'm being nice about it.

They posted a clarification to make absolutely sure noone's confused. Not that it will help everyone, as some people are always confused.

Melissia why don't you ever post in the underhive anymore? We miss you :_(.
I didn't get the last expansion to dawn of war 2 surprisingly but according to certain videos on youtube it looked good. They even managed to make multiple characters have a meaningful end if they turned traitor. Not something easy to do with somebody like tarkus who's boring and bland as all hell.
I'll see if i can get this new expansion but i don't have the money currently as i spend most of it on GW stuff. I just need to stop buying GW stuff and buy some computer games sometimes. Of course it won't matter as right now after my previous computer died the one i'm using currently is old and can't even handle DoW 2. So i'm pretty much up nuts creek right now.

I remember back in winter assault when sentinels were fast, could uncap strategic points or critical points and were funny as hell to use. The manticore sounds like it's gonna kick ass. The upgrades for the leman russ sound like the different variants. Heavy weapons will be ok. The return of ogryns and kasrkin is nice but i was hoping for a psyker battle squad as well. Who knows it might be a special unit only allowed by a certain character. Banewolves sound like they'll be fun. Can't wait for the badass baneblade. Man that's gonna be fun. Commissar lord and Lord general sound like fun heroes. I only want the lord general for artillery. The commissar lord is better for the rest like buffing units. Dunno what to think of about the inquisitor. I'll have to see what he can do. So basically i'm just excited for pretty much everything. I'll have to see everything the catachan devils can do. I remember way back in DoW 1 when myself and others thought they'd be useful as a low tier melee unit. If they can have a stealth upgrade and some explosives or traps then i'm sold on the idea of them. 3 new videos from gametrailers.com: www.gametrailers.com/game/warhammer-40-000-dawn-of/13708 It shows a little more of these details and units you mentioned in action.

She, actually. The Inquisitor is a female Witch Hunter Inquisitor, in a dashing black longcoat and hat.

*Thumbs up.*
Approved.
Putting a Baneblade in there might be a little much though...
do any of the other factions get Apocalypse units?

Yeah i'm sorry if i said he as i know it's a she. Still not interested in her. Maybe i'm just into pure guard or i prefer the other heroes or something but i just don't like her as of yet. Somehow they mentioned this was the ordo malleus which would make no sense. Just because the inquisitor is female doesn't equal a witchhunter inquisitor does it? She is dressed up for it though. Melissia why don't you come to the underhive though? Seriously what the hell?! It lacks your hotness .

I saw it already in probably another video. At least we have the executioner. I suppose the only other ones they'd use are the vanquisher or the punisher. You can also call down walls (buildable by your men i think) and bunkers. As it says sentinels are tier 1 but i think it's only because guard infantry are so weak.

As a side note, Legoburner from Dakka described how the Hive Lord moves from world to world:
He played a demo at a press release.
