This is definitely the best game in the Dawn of War franchise especially when it comes to the campaign, which in this case is not linear and allows you to play as every faction from the Eldar to the Necrons with a map based system.
The 3 newcoming factions the T’au Empire, the Necrons, and the Imperial Guard. All add their own unique playstyles that are interesting to learn and master even if some factions are better then others (necrons)
The only real issue is the AI’s tendency to steamroll you with honor guard units making unfun meat grinder missions where they have incredibly powerful units roaming the map at the very beginning.
This would be less of an issue if the AI didn’t also give itself prebuilt bases whenever it attacks you, The amount of times I’ve started a defense just to see they already have 2 bases with nearly the entire tech tree unlocked at the beginning regardless of how defended yours even makes things a bit annoying.
But the positives of this game far outweigh the negatives in the end.
