Apparently with the 3rd expansion, DoWII will be going the way of Dark Crusade, which isn't a bad thing at all. It's also hinted at that the new race will be an Inquisitorial based one.
 
So...new faction, new units, new maps, new campaign where you can choose what race you want to be.
Yeah, I'd agree that it's going the way of Dark Crusade, but I doubt that the new faction can have something to do with the inquisition. Then the Spacemarines would be fighting them, too, and that doesn't quite make sense.
Then again, DoW's expansions had IG fighting Spacemarines, which despite being totally impossible, happened.
 
I want an ork with a pirate hat. This'll be a nice thing to keep my into DoW for when Space Marine comes out. Lol at the end, "DA WAAAGGHHH! ERUPTS!"

Not totally impossible, Guardsmen have conflicts with Space Marines all the time.

Well, I meant it was almost impossible for infantry squads (Just the regular ones, nothing special about them) to win against Space Marine squads, but it happened...

Imperial Guard infantry squads commonly come with multiple heavy weapons such as plasma guns and heavy bolters. You aren't giving lasguns enough credit.

You mean their flashlights? and you can't forget their tanks and numbers, they're like the orks with mass numbers but arent as tough, yet they have large/destructive tanks

Gentlemen, please, the whole argument about how effective guard is is semantical, as it has varying results on tabletop and the fluff only supports it if the guardsmen are in their thousands.

I should hope one more expansion will at least come out for DoW II, I've yet to see the Guard army.

I don't know about you but I never enjoy 90 lasgun shots coming at one of my units from a single troop choice. Even if they are Necrons they are going to take losses.
 
By squads, I'm talking about the poorly maintained status of my IG squads in DoW. They still beat SM on harder difficulties, with 4 people and no upgrades. That is the crazy stuff I'm talking about that can't happen.
Then again, it is 4 people who are constantly respawning...

But then again, AI bugged once so I took down an enemy Monolith with two guardsmen(I forgot to tell one squad to retreat, but miraculously, the enemy would only attack them if there were more than two). Took about half an hour, but it worked. I suppose it would take longer, but for the purposes of gameplay...
