Warhammer 40k: Dawn of War 2 - Retribution Message Board  

My guess is, they will include all of the races eventually. If you played the old DOW 1 games as I did and still do, you will notice they started with the Space Marines, then added the Imperial Guard and so on until they ended the series. They aren't exactly following the same proceedure with the DOW 2 series but it is similiar enough to see they seem to be heading in the same direction. If I'm right, these will be included in future expansions which of course we'll have to buy and spend more money on, and then hope the darn things work right. DOW 2 has a habit of not working as well as DOW 1 games. But then you know no company is going to give us anything free. They might let you think so, but they aren't. I think we will get all of the old races eventually...though how long this will take I have no idea. I do love the Retribution game, the best yet. But I like DOW 1 games and their set up a lot better.

I am bit dissapointed since instead of Tau or Necrons, we only get another HUMAN races... Tau or Necrons is 1000 times better especially since there are many rumour that this is the LAST exp for DoW 2... so sad

I really could care less when they come out with more Space Marine games. DOW 2 should have been titled Space Marines 2. THQ, Relic and whomsoever, seem to have Space Marines on the brain. True we can now play any race in Retribution but I wish they had included a single player skirmish mode. And who knows how long this will last? Next game...more Space Marines. I like the Space Marines, but I would rather use Imperial Guard. I for one favor human players, instead of genetically created cyborgs who are half human, half computer and half machine.
