    Still no base building. Sigh....

    And before some relic fan boy starts wailing and nashing his teeth, let me just say how much I enjoyed the original Dawn of War, because it had stellar gameplay WITH base building.

    For an RTS to be enjoyable and not just merely satisfying, it must have base building.

    For me at least. :)
