    Soulstorm should have introduced decent air forces, not just these handful of hovering tank-like units. Otherwise a fun expansion as always. [Apr 2008]

    Soulstorm does many things differently than many of the other RTS games that have been released in the last ten years, and it does all of them amazingly well.

    There’s nothing new under the Dawn of War sun. Soulstorm is just a repeat of the Dark Crusade expansion, with two different factions thrown into the mix. It might be worth a look for those who absolutely have to complete the series, but most will get just as much mileage from the previous expansion.

    It seems that as soon as Relic Entertainment gave the reigns to Iron Lore Entertainment a bit of the soul that breathes life into Dawn of War was extinguished.

    It's nice add-on to the real big multiplayer game. But anything like SoB bug just can't happen ... especially with SC2 on it's way ...

    Soulstorm does not deliver - the campaign is sub-par compared to Dark Crusade, and 40k cannon is pretty much raped (imperial guard general simply 'loosing' one hundred Baneblades - good laugh, though). The game is, like it's precedessors, ok online, though the new races don't seem balanced enough.… Expand

    I am really fond of the original game and enjoyed playing the two first expansion packs. But the last one didn't bring enough to me: just an air unit for each faction (they've not a great interest) and two new faction, including one that is just a mix of the guard and the space marines.The new campaign is, despite few new possibilities, the same as Dark Crusade's campaign (especially fortress attacks!).For me, a fan of dawn of war wouldn't get it and prefer playing a still better Dark Crusade.… Expand
