[url="http://forums.relicnews.com/showthread.php?t=100519"]Relic News Forums[/url] put together a nice FAQ today. It goes into great detail on all the specifics of Dark Crusade, and is worth a look for anyone interested in getting this game! Here is a bit of it: [quote]Q. Will I need Winter Assault or Dawn of War to run Dark Crusade? A. No. Dark Crusade will be a standalone product. However, owning Dawn of War and Winter Assault will unlock additional content for Dark Crusade users. [/quote] It is interesting to note that even if you don't have Dawn of War, you can still play Dark Crusade, but you cannot use any of the original game's races. Furthermore, without Winter Assault, you cannot play as the Imperial Guard. Check it out [url="http://forums.relicnews.com/showthread.php?t=100519"]here![/url]
