The forces of Chaos now bear all that they need to unearth it. He reveals that the world is cursed, and bears an artifact of Chaos: the Maledictum, a stone that contains the essence of a daemon. The Blood Ravens find an altar dedicated to Chaos, confirming Gabriel's suspicions, and resolve to destroy the traitors, unknowing that Isador is already under the influence of Sindri Myr, the Chaos Sorcerer of the Alpha Legion.Īfter a pitched battle with the forces of the Alpha Legion (including traitorous Imperial Guard regiments who have been corrupted by Chaos), Gabriel and Isador confront Toth in the ruins of an Imperial Temple. On further investigation, it is revealed that the Eldar are also operating on the planet.
Toth then implies that Gabriel's actions on Cyrene have clouded his judgement, making him 'see Chaos where it doesn't exist'.
Toth orders a complete evacuation of the planet, but Gabriel refuses, stating his desire to investigate the possible threat of Chaos. Soon after this, they are joined by an Inquisitor, Mordecai Toth, who orders them to leave the planet, warning that a Warp Storm- a great space-based storm that would make all travel impossible -is approaching the planet and will consume the planet in 3 days time. After the extermination of the Orks, scouts reveal to Gabriel that Chaos forces are operating on the planet. However, Gabriel tells him not to mention it again, stating that his homeworld was his responsibility. Isador, sensing that the Captain's mind is troubled, realises why, and tells him that there was nothing he could have done to save his home planet of Cyrene. Several clans are featured in the campaign, as is the hulking Ork Warboss, Orkamungus. The tech tree for Orks differs from the other races in that it depends on the amount of Orks currently in the army and the number of erected WAAAGH!! banners.
In large enough numbers, they gain morale immunity. While generally lacking in sophisticated technology, they are physically powerful, using brute force and crude weapons that well complement their tendency to attack in massive hordes. The Orks are a savage, brutal and warlike species who exist to seek the thrilling challenge of battle.The campaign features a warhost hailing from the craftworld Biel-Tan, led by Farseer Macha. Swift both on foot and in their hovering grav-vehicles, they are also able to move quickly around the map via webway gates. Eldar in Dawn of War are fast and agile but most of their units are more fragile. The Eldar are a sophisticated psychic race, ancient and technologically advanced, that have fought the fell powers of Chaos for millions of years before mankind's birth.The campaign features the Alpha Legion, with their leaders, Sindri Myr and Lord Bale. In addition, they employ morale-draining daemons and psykers. In Dawn of War, they use troops that are corrupted mirrors of their loyal Imperial counterparts. The Chaos Space Marines are traitors that, ten thousand years ago, chose to abandon their duties to humanity, betray the Immortal Emperor of Mankind and the Imperium, and instead worship the Gods of Chaos, accepting promises of power and immortality.The Space Marines are the only playable race in the single player section of the game, and the 11-mission campaign features the 3rd Company of the Blood Ravens chapter as the protagonists, led by Captain Gabriel Angelos and Librarian Isador Akios. Their troops and vehicles are more expensive, however, reflecting their limited numbers.
Space Marines have the highest morale in the game. Inducted at a young age, each Space Marine receives biological modifications, a lifetime of rigorous training, and lives to experience centuries of endless battle in the defense of humanity. Space Marines are the elite, highly skilled and genetically modified superhuman soldiers of the Imperium.Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War features four playable armies:
