Ok I gotta ask. Why do the humans ware such massive armor that cover their entire body but leave the head exposed? Seems kind of stupid to me, one good HEADSHOT! and all that armor counted for nothing.

The Tyranids where there before the Zerg. They are the copy.

It's the style of Warhammer 40K. And the original reason was a way to distinguish between the regular Marines and the commanders. If you read the novels you will learn that they all dutifully wear their helmets. But it looks much cooler this way.

I tried the original Dawn of War with expansions--it was fun, but I wasn't too impressed.

This game will be an entirely different beast. In addition to the overhaul grahics wise, squads will actively seek cover, said cover can be destroyed by grenades and the like, buildings can be taken control of (think C&C style I believe) and the entire game is more squad orriented. You can upgrade them with wargear, much like commanders from Dark Crusade.

That is what I don't like about the game. Dawn of War was good the way it was. Why go to that squad style?
