Dawn of War Dark Crusade - All Intro Cutscenes 

All because the orks were there.

Dawn of War just updated and it now uses Steam-integrated multiplayer. People are actually playing the games again.

14:23 *Inquisitor points Bolt Pistol at narrators head*

"And last, came the Space Marines!" Were they late because they stopped for space milk shakes? Did they get space five guys on the way? I bet Space Marines aren't even enough to finish all those fries they like to throw into the five guys bag.

Space Marines fighting Imperial Guardsmen left me feeling conflicted.

7:01 , 7:17 I know Imperial pilots has balls of steel...but it isn't normal right?

What Space Marines and Imperial Guards fighting each other? That is heresy!

11:49 "Brother-Captain Davvian Fuel"

I'm really grateful you took the time to put all the cutscenes together in one video(!). I actually quite liked watching all the introductions in one go as I've never done that before; sure all of them are on youtube separately but I just wouldn't have been as motivated to look for each one separately. The Blood Ravens actions on Kronus certainly make a lot more sense when the true nature of their Chapter Master is finally revealed in the DOW II expansions, he pretty much didn't care what the Blood Ravens did to the Imperial Guard; unlike Thule; Kyras would have been just as pleased if every last one died. Under Thule the Blood Ravens did still honor the Guardsmen in a sense; they let the remaining guardsman leave and executed the guardsmen from the 5th Company that so willingly betrayed their fellow guardsmen.

It is funny how each faction would be if they won. Imperial Guard and Space Marine: Safety for mankind. For Chaos: you either die or join. Necrons: Either made into a warrior or killed. Orks: They will straight up kill you. Eldar: They will leave you if you retreat. Tau: Death or join their cause.

One of the most enjoyable games I have ever had the pleasure of playing and still play today, to be more precise I am playing it right now as the Space Marines :D

Well, the Imperium often has fights among themselves. Heresy becomes rampant, secrets have got to be kept, etc. The Inquisition has the power to wipe out an entire human planet for no reason save a suspicion that it's gone corrupt, and have done so in the past. The point of the game is that it makes you ask which side is the Blood Ravens really on, which leads up to the story for the second Dawn of War game.

Man, I've become adept at fighting the Necrons, they literally captured the entirety on the planet. Conquered all the other generals and is coming after me.

Too bad Soulstorm has no campaign intros...

WAAAAAAGH! All humies 'ere yapping who's best. I'lll tell ya whos' best! Orks iz da best!

DAMN YOU AZARIAH KYRAS!!! YOU MADE THE BLOOD RAVENS MURDER THE IMPERIAL GUARD!!!

Introduction to the tyranids in beginning cutscene of dark crusade Narrator:from the empty voids of space came the tyranids, an alien race whose goal is to sate their eternal hunger. Introduction to tyranids when player picks them. Narrator:after the second tyranic war the mighty hive fleet kraken was thought to have been destroyed during the battle of Ichar IV and defense of craftworld Iyanden. However remnants of the kraken managed to survive, a surviving tendril of kraken arrives accidentally in space near the battling tau and imperial navy forces. The tendril’s fleet of ships were destroyed by the combine powers of the two navies, but before the destruction of the bio ships several of the spores from the bio ships have fallen onto Kronos. The bio forms of kraken managed to take a former tau outpost by consuming the inhabitants along with any wild life to replenish their fallen numbers. The mysterious tyranid hive mind saw Kronos not only as a valuable place to consume all of its biological materials, but also a staging ground to wreak havoc upon the worlds of the Imperium of man and Tau Empire. The hive mind decided to create its most dangerous weapon the swarm lord to assist the bio forms of Kronos hurry with their consumption of the planet. If the tyranids are not defeated then and there, the Imperium would be attacked by a replenished hive fleet Kraken.

Surely the inquisition would take an interest if guardsmen and a space marine chapter were having at it

That's what Skull Probes are for...^^ The convenient thing about making a Space Marine chapter adapted to close-quarters combat is that the Tau are helpless once you take range and invisibility out of the way.

THE TECHNOLOGY OF TAU MAKES US STRONG!!!!!

the game that started it all for me . too good

This is all for the Greater Good

Ah sweet sweet nostalgia

JUST BECAUSE THEY WERE THERE

So many memories of dawn of war dark crusade

For the greater good!

Sphess mehreens always triumph!

>Choosing Easy difficulty That isn't very grim-dark of you...

imperial guard captain looks so derpy in selection screen

Necrons was unbalanced as hell in this game.

Fuck that the tau are best, for the greater good

Good man. A pleasure to watch a squad of guys with Flamers just get in melee range with the aid a of a frag grenade. Heavy Bolters work too, but you have to turtle all the time and even those don't have enough range sometimes. Take longer to set up too, at least longer than Fire Warrior squads. Best ones are Assault Marines or Assault Terminators with Teleport led by the Force Commander and backed up by the Chaplain and Dreadnoughts. They last forever..Works versus Eldar too.

"Captain Thule, get to Captain Thule!"

+Kieran Heylings This is KerianH (different account), but as you can see above, it is spelled differently. Probably my favorite part about that pen name/alias; it sounds cool and nobody else has it.

Heresy-era Eliphas using the Blood Ravens banner what

still playing this game and Soulstrom as well

Toll gemacht

"THE SHAPERS SENT US TO SERVE"

indeed they are, but they're a little easier since they don't anything other than the Powerplants and you can break the pop cap limit. I like the Orkz, the Waagh banners are pretty interesting mechanic to have.

Dawn of War is one of the best things that happend,if only "dawn of war 3" werent such a dissapoitment. Space marine intro has to be the most chilling,complete with the choir sound at the end.

i love your Ork Grammer

When your choosing a character you can hear in the song like someone is talking

What faction are you playing? You might be able to get a leg back up. Try and focus on building lots of stuff whenever you conquer a specific region. Get as many strategic points captured and hold them with buildings. Build a second command center built where they don't spawn and have lots of troops stationed for backup. If you hole up, there's a chance you can be victorious later. ^^

@Martintheauthor It's probably not just the artifacts on the original site. I'm just about done with the Space Marine Campaign; beat the Chaos Space Marines second. According to the vidlog, the Blood Ravens took the tainted artifacts that the Word Bearers held with them in order to have them documented and then destroyed. Chances are they were never touched beyond being documented...

so, which army is your fabourite from this expansion pack?

I'm varied. I play best as Space Marines, though truth be told my favorite army's got to be Necrons...because, let's face it, they're awesome.

if u let the humans be your last faction, youre gonna have a hard time killing them as they will outnumber you

Aww nice video thanks ! do people also read the books before playing this ? I live in The netherlands, and those books, well hard to come by sadly ... so I have no real background info in to the warhammer universe sadly. Will this be a problem to play all games >? I have them all but The story can become clear just by the game ? also I don't like this new camapge mode so much .. I am happy they went back to normal in dawn of war 2

yea, the cannon ending is humanity, though the blood raven commander does lose quite a number of his soldiers, and he himself loses one of his eyes in a battle with the necron lord

can some one tell me how to get this game on chromebook if you can somehow please i searched everywhere

*brings out the Baneblade and Leman Russ squadron out of the bush hiding behind danfr444* Correction; these Imperial Guard are applied with tactical genius! *pulls out cigar butt and puffs* XD

12:14 CAPTAIN *FUEL*

The Imps and SMs trigger me so much in this game. They could literally just work together and quite easily operate separately at the same time with no consequence.

"each thinking they were in the right" well except for the Orks, they just wanna fight things

I Like This Show

well a lot of chaos is human and they're not on the same side

sphess merenee!

Who won down of war winter assault an soul storm?

Welcome to the Imperium. Enjoy your stay.

Blood Ravens is considered canon.

The imperial guard were given orders to withdraw and refused and all space marine captains have the authority and right to annihilate any imperial force that shows a tenancy for rebellion and thus in the view of the imperium the blood ravens were just exercising their right.

At first, when I heard the last line of the Eldar intro, I thought it said "If none of the Mont'ka would stop the Necrons..." which confused me; I thought Mont'ka was Tau?

Given that they own the largest standing army in the galaxy, that comes as no surprise. XP

I miss the game!!!!!! 🤧🤧🤧 too bad its old I can't download it back😭😭😭😭

So I just started a game and I am wondering... Is it worth playing a campaign for every one of the factions?Are all their stories drastically different or is it just minor differences? I like this game but god damn If I have to play all the factions...Some of them I don't really care for though so I probably wouldn't play them anyway.

to be honest I never managed to win with the Eldar or the Imperium, maybe i just cant play them but it always felt like the other races were just stronger than these two :-/

Btw is the Titan gun from the "Dies Irae"?(I refer to the horus heresy books)

That's right. The Guardsmen don't need shit from no Spess Mareens.

Believe it or not this happens all the time in the Warhammer universe. The argument is a question of authority; Space Marines are superior to regular humanity and even a human general's commands can be overwritten by a Space Marine captain's. Of course, when a general gets his orders straight from the head honchos that's where the line is drawn and the confusion happens. I like how the Space Marine cutscene explains it; only the war's victors would be left to decide the truth of the matter...

Which ending is canon?

Necrons is best)

Nah, the game itself is pretty easy to get into even without knowledge of the Warhammer world. I was practically introduced to Warhammer through these games. ^^ I recommend ordering books online via the Black Library website. I've not had an opportunity to get a lot of the books myself, but I hope to change that. Good luck to you on seeking out more Warhammer lore!

good!

CHAOS !! THE BEST!!!

If you really want to look at a chapter that is arrogant towards human life, look at the Iron Hands. Perfection in the machine! XD

The best Dawn of War game ever and then we have ultimate apocalypse for soulstorm that makes the skirmishes 100x better

eldar are the best because of there tactical defensive play

For the emperor !

Imperial guard took over mine xD

im all for the humans killing each other - less work for us tau - but surely the space marine captain could have spoken to segmentum command himself and get them to step down? and he has grey knights with him there too! surely their authority in the inquisition, much less as the ultimate space marine chapter, superceeds every other imperial faction there!

I miss the Necrons and the tau I wish Dow 3 didn’t flop so they could be in that

wait 3 questions 1)if any faction besides the space marines or the imperial guard won wouldn't the imperiun declare exterminatus on the planet 2) why would the imperial guard and the space marines fight, aren't they on the same side, 3) why is it always the blood ravens in dawn of war, why not the ultramarines or any other chapter

Imperials fighting each other, what else is new?

I can split either way Necron or CSM

WWWWAAAAGGGGHHHH BASH EM

Yes I would rather follow the God-Emperor, than something that looks like a Tzeentchian Slaaneshi child that Khorne failed to abort.

Why is there Locust boomers holding retro lancers in the thumbnail.

What is the official ending of the Dark Crusade?

Oh but the Prince of Exess himself will kill all of them

Hmm, kind of cool. And going by what is revealed about the Blood Ravens chapter master in Retribution I'd say those artifacts were DEFINITELY bad.

Thath Gorgutz always escap befor anyone try to kill him. Lorn V, Kronus and then Kaurava too. Coward!

10:50 Wait..... what? He can do THAT?

TAU is good!

and anyway time to be an nerd again: for the greater good the tau empire

A propah Ork dat one. 'E demonstrates some brutal cunnin.' 'E goes round dah enemy an' foights back radder 'den keep banging 'dem wit a battleklaw until 'e gets smashed! GADDER DAH BOYZ! WWWAAAAAAAAAAAGGGHH!!! XD

Turn on captions at 8:17 Necrons confirmed for keyboard warriors.

Actually try and search for the "marines malevolent" on the warhammer 40k wiki, they are a loyalist chapter who are just ... thefuck.

this makes no sense why wouldnt the space marines and imperial guard wipe everyone else out?

Iet the best win :)

XD True, I'll have to admit; I use the ctrl+# a lot with Necrons. Maybe they really are keyboard warriors.
