Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War -- Dark
Crusade (PC) -
The second expansion to Dawn of War includes all-new, explosive Dawn
of War single-player action play, new multiplayer content, and two
new playable races including the technologically devastating Tau. In
addition to the two new playable races, Dark Crusade will feature an
all-new single player campaign centering on the conquest of a
"meta-map," with each territory captured giving tangible
rewards to the occupying force. Also featured is a greatly expanded
multiplayer component and a completely unique economy model for the
Necrons. Warhammer 40K: Dark Crusade is also a stand-alone expansion
-- it adds bonus content to Dawn of War and Winter Assault, but it
can also be played on its own without needing a copy of the original
game.
Deep under the central desert of
Kronus, a vast honeycomb of skull-lined tunnels and funereal
chambers house the awakening mass of the Necron plague. Eons ago,
these were the boulevards and squares of a great necropolis built to
house the bones of the races who had fallen to the Necron purge, and
ultimately for the Necron themselves to retire to. Over the millions
of years, sand and rock had covered it all until ill-fated
excavations awoke the deathless again. Play any of seven races,
striving for control over Kronus. Take other races' strongholds by
winning challenging battles on various maps individually associated
with the respective Strongholds.
