Sit down, shut up and wait already.

And hurrah, you are not the only one to say Nids.

Oh great, a game where the only objective is to kill nids or to kill other people as nids.

I can't wait.

Well Nids=Chaos in the larger scale of things

Chaos has a personality though.

You can attempt to convert the location population, Chaos renegades can enter the scene, there can be infighting and competition between the different Gods, demons come into play etc... Chaos also has egos and there's conversation and competition.

Nids just zerg rush kekekekekeke =^_^=

Nids have Stealer cells thus can convert local population

plus if chaos are not in it a addon could come out with everything to do with chaos all the gods units and such.

Are you referring to the Genestealer Cult? That's different from a Tyranid Attack.

The 5th Edition shows pretty accurately how the Tyranids screw over a planet, and it's quite boring.

As for your second statement, is English your primary language/

Yes
I Have Dyslexic and high-functioning autism

What i meant is Chaos having a expansion pack what has everything
Thus you could field a pure Nurgle army and so on
instead of having to make do with Undivided


I'm right in thinking that DoW 2 has only 4 races right?

There is a rumor that it's chaos, and that the clouds and the moon form into a Slaaneshi symbol, but I don't see it. I thought I saw a eight-pointed star in the top left corner though.

[Sanity_is_for_the_Weak]
As much as I'd like Tyranids to be in it, I really want Chaos to return, they're too big to be left out.

[Sanity_is_for_the_Weak]
Chaos is a staple of the Warhammer Universe! It is the sworn arch-enemy of the Imperium, and it is fitting for the campaign.

[Sanity_is_for_the_Weak]
I'm positive Chaos are in it, I'm debating on whether that cliffhanger was for the Tyranids or Chaos.

OMFGORX!!!1!!!ONE!
Tyranids.
What did I tell you guys? But they say that they are the fourth faction, does that leave Chaos out?

Okay, so in my head I knew the Tyranids were in it, thanks for catching me. Did you guys see the new extended trailer? In case you didn't it features some huge Tyranid creature.

Uggh... judging from that video the Tyranids look way overpowered. There doesn't seem to be much diversity in gameplay for Tyranids, either, other than point and click beat 'em up (Or in the case of the Zoanthrope Warp Field shot ). But time will tell. Pretty nifty, if not bloom heavy graphics though.

Ah well, the 'nid players got what they wanted. Overpowered insects to eternally clash with overpowered guys in suits. I can hear the fanboys now...

I don't think I'll be getting Dawn of War II just yet, I might get a stand-alone expansion pack if it has Grey Knights, Chaos, or Dark Eldar.

Ah yes, you are one of those sods who draws conclusions from early trailers and other pre-beta materials.

I imagine it is still in alpha stage of development, if that. I saw some creature use its tongue to lasso a Space Marine and devour it, that's pretty sweet as an ambush technique. One minute your marines are happily miring about in a jungle the next one guy is dragged off and eaten while the rest panic and eventually get swamped with bugs.

Space Marines don't panic. Because they know no fear.

Unless you are Konrad Kurze, fat chance of that happening.

And you're a troll who goes around and posts negative comments about someone who doesn't agree with them. Look at that.

What else are we going to talk about Dawn of War 2, praytell, if not conclusions from trailers and other pre-beta materials?
