They better be doing it like in CoH and also patch vanilla with the balance changes.

Vanilla players will recieve new units by patch, so I believe Relic will balance it further. And IIRC vanilla players should be able to play with CR players, they just won't be able to play Chaos (as it was in DoW1)

BTW what do you mean by doing it like CoH? Global powers being purchased by resources (requisition/power)?

I meant this:

But i forgot that they did the same for DoW.

2 New Last Stand Heroes – Face off against the relentless horde as either the Chaos Sorceror or Tyranid Hive Tyrant

So those two new TLS heroes are finally cnofirmed. I have read about HT and Sorcerer as the new TLS heroes before, but nothing was for sure.

Librarian unit profile

So he will be a T2 unit and not a new commander.
5 strong abilities (2 by default and 3 with upgrades)....it seems, there will be a lot of whine when CR content patch comes live (unless other new units will have similar strength).

That means no Chaos commanders for each God... of course Slaanesh was unlikely to be in anyhow... stupid americans and your fear of the nipple.

New info about Tyranid units - Genestealer and Tyrant Guard

ThunderTitan · Unread postby **ThunderTitan** » 13 Jan 2010, 16:02

And in the next exp they'll replace the extra set of Warrior Brood and we'll have a perfect 'Nid line up...

Then the Eldar could use such treatment too.
(shuriken, brightlance and d-cannon platforms)
Heck, even marines could get plasma devastators as an upgrade to devastator squad. The Orks can upgrade from Lootas to Beamy lootas so what the hell?

ThunderTitan · Unread postby **ThunderTitan** » 17 Jan 2010, 11:31

Well the platforms having different weapons does work imo, but yeah, they could easily replace them with Aspects.

Eldar Wraithguard

Now only the Orks' new unit remains.

Flash Gitz?!

There were some rumors about Wartrakk on the Relic fansite, however I doubt it.

Since two heavy armored infantry units were introduced (Wraithguard and Genestealers), I think Orks could get Mega-armoured Nobz.

ThunderTitan · Unread postby **ThunderTitan** » 24 Jan 2010, 20:51

Yeah, that does sound plausible.

klaymen · Unread postby **klaymen** » 27 Jan 2010, 15:21

Tnhe new Ork unit is revealed. It is neither Flash Gitz squad nor Mega-armoured Nobz nor Wartrakk.

It is the Weirdboy.

ThunderTitan · Unread postby **ThunderTitan** » 27 Jan 2010, 20:06

That's both unexpected and pretty cool...

klaymen · Unread postby **klaymen** » 30 Jan 2010, 16:42

Yeah, it is unexpected. Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition. Foot of Gork seems funny and Over Dere! might be useful too.

BTW new info about Hive Tyrant as a TLS hero here.

ThunderTitan · Unread postby **ThunderTitan** » 01 Feb 2010, 06:55

TLS also gets a Chaos hero, right?

klaymen · Unread postby **klaymen** » 01 Feb 2010, 09:39

Yep, a Sorcerer.
