>Turtles and then shreds you with Baneblade with Infantry and Tank Battalion support
hate that
>>746000486>TurtlesThanks for giving up map control I now have a 10x larger eco and army than you due to all the excess resources you didn't contest, and even my non-turtle base is bigger and tankier than your turtle base.
>>746000486If you're not firing a constant bombardment of tank and artillery shells, are you really playing Imperial Guard?
>>746000486>turtles You have never played against another person, or even a CPU above standard
>turtling>in DoW1
>>746000709Anon...nobody plays Dawn of War anymore...
>>746000743I'm not interested in what outsiders have to say about it
>>746000792
>>746000860Correct, nobody plays with (You). Multiplayer these days happens in prearranged lobbies over Discord.
>>746000924>Player Base is down to a squeek so we gotta use discord to even play the gameOof been there bud not fun to say the least
>>746001163That's just being an RTS fan playing any game that isn't SC2 or AoE2 in '26
>>746000709this, even while rushing points, chaos always managed to summon a million cultist and a hundred greater daemons
>>746001712For me, it's the pure misery of fighting eldar spamming wraithlords from a half dozen support portals cloaked and scattered across the whole fucking map
What is the multiplayer tier list in DoW1 anyway?
>>746002029You think that's bad you should experience fighting a player who's spamming drop-podded dreadnoughts.
>>746003861It's not that bad because you know there's only one orbital relay and it's probably tucked away inside their base. Eldar are worse because their infrastructure spreads far and fast and can be cloaked, they can unspool an entire infantry army at a moments notice nearly anywhere so satellite factories are harder to attack while also defending yourself. You take out the eldar player first or you pray they're being played by someone stupid, if you don't and they aren't, it's GG for you once they snowball.
>>746000486Dawn of War is not a turtle friendly game and requires you to play aggressively and secure control of the map to get ahead. In that way I really like it. I wish I could play guard properly but I'm an APMlet and it's one of the most macro-heavy armies in the game.
>>746004738You can sort of turtle as IG, but it involves leapfrogging your defenses forwards a bit at a time with armor pushes. Basically the Dorn gambit. That's really only useful on particular maps with hard lanes built in though, or they just go around.
