thread_title: Podcast about the release

message: (*ahem*) Well, guess the Tyranids have been scrapped in favor of the Sisters of Battle (they had it coming all along anyways). So, how do you think they're going to turn out? (I hope Relic throw in the Incarcerator for good measure - it makes for a good convoy scenario and multiplayer fragfest) - Frostmourne 16 06:00, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: I'm not an expert on Wikipedia image policy, but I'm pretty sure the watermarking (the grey Gamespot logo that appears at the bottom right of the images) makes those images unsuitable for use on Wikipedia, even under a claim of fair use. Infernal Inferno 21:21, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

text: I think we should wait until more information on Soulstorm comes up (in particular the Sisterhood's Faith system), then we'll find ways on improving the article. For now, this is about as good as it gets. - Frostmourne 16 15:37, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

text: Whoa, haven't gotten word of that. Also, it's the Order of Our Matyred Lady. But that's a pretty good photo of the Lightning. And nobody really did mention Seraphim in the trailers, but I did find something on buggo's blog: http://www.relicrank.com/bloggo/ Check one of the more recent post about Soulstorm's Dark Eldar Warp Beast pictures. It's kind of a bit revealing. - Frostmourne 16 05:21, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: A slight snippet here: I think they'll be sure to release the Seraphim in the finished product. If the screenshot proves they'll come out, they'll come out. Relic aren't the kind of people who like to disappoint people. Also, given the slight similiarities between the Adepta Sororitas and the Adeptus Astartes,  I think it's fair to say that the Seraphim are bound to fly straight into the midst of Soulstorm's battlefields. - Frostmourne 16 06:41, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  New units 

message: i note that 76.215.131.52 has added a bit onto the 'new units' that states necrons will be gaining a resource called 'Essence', i believe not unakin to Dark Eldar Souls.
at the very least this needs a citation, its probably in the wrong place, and deserves a place beside the other two unique resources, if it can be proven.
have added  to it.
also, he states that attack scarabs will be able to fly, but previously verified sources stated that the necrons hadn't been confirmed any flying units. suggestions? 3rdTriangle (talk) 16:59, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

text: For the most part, game stores will usually say it's "out" on a certian day, usually a Tuesday. That's when it leaves their warehouses and heads to the game stores themselves. It's available on the following day.
I read that it's out in June. Bioform 1234 (talk) 20:00, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  It released on the 4th?! 

message: "The general feeling being that the game is rushed and an effort to flog a dying cash-cow for it's last few spasms of life...but the opperunity to fold in many other victory conditions seems to have been ignored, contributing to the feeling that the game was not well finished."
Can somebody please find a reference or two for this please? Especially as the passage seems to imply a semi-consensus with "general feeling". I've corrected the spelling and grammar mistakes, but, to be honest, I think this entire paragraph should be deleted and rewritten. Thoughts? Metaphysically (talk) 19:14, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Interesting. I'll have to check it out when I get in. My first guess would be that it said something along the lines of "Expansion Pack to the Game of the Year" but as I said, that's total assumption. If it is refering to Soulstorm itself though, feel free to throw it back up there. Wrel (talk)
Did you say game of the year? SoulStorm is an expansion.--Can Not (talk) 03:20, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Passage on Reception

message: One of the original Warhammer video game titles that I played featured turn based gameplay.  There is a mention in the "Game" section that this title is the same as previous titles, but the outline suggests Real Time Strategy genre which is not exactly "turn based".  Could somebody clear up in the article whether this is in fact turn based or real time in the game format?  Cheers - Mark Vincent - Andmark (talk) 01:38, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: This game is Real-time. I believe the 'previous titles' they are referencing is the original Dawn of War and the 2 prior expansions.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wrel (talk • contribs) 13:22, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Gameplay clarification 

message: I have seen with other pages with very good information bars such as the one on: Epigenetics  I think that kind of information bar would be appropriate to this game, and to many Video Game projects. Of course, this isn't about genetics, so it should look a little bit different. The main reason I am bringing this up is because this page is just a relative sub-branch of the rather large game tree, but at a glance, it isn't easy to navigate the tree, as it is on the page I linked to. Thanks for considering the idea.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.22.176.33 (talk) 23:06, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Info Bar Sub-Branching Categorization 

message: I feel that I have reasons to believe that Soulstorm is not on the same timeline as Dawn of War 2. Rather, I think that it splits off after the Dark Crusade.
In Soulstorm, if the Blood Ravens win, it states in the ending cutscene that the Blood Ravens "acquitted themselves." This implies that they were guilty of something before but redeemed themselves. Now, we also know that if the Blood Ravens win in Dark Crusade, the Segmentum Command accuses the chapter of heresy, but the Inquisition drops the charges. We also know that if the Kronus Liberators level the Space Marine headquarters, Lucas Alexander finds evidence that the Blood Ravens are somehow connected to Chaos. (Indeed, Eliphas hints at similar things at times, too)
With that knowledge, we can conclude that the narration in Soulstorm implies that the 1st Kronus Liberators won, and thus Thule died. However, we also know that in Dawn of War 2, Thule is the guy who gives you orders. That means that he must have won the Dark Crusade.
So, my conclusion is that Soulstorm and Dawn of War 2 Do not follow the same storyline. Rather, the two are a sort of fork in the road following the Dark Crusade. Fusion7 (talk) 18:14, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Soulstorm and Dawn of war 2 follow the same storyline. Cyrus the scout himself said that the Blood Ravens made a huge mistake in sending half the chapter into the kaurava conflict as almost all the assault force died and Boreale died. That's also the reason why the Blood Ravens was so weakened at the start of the campaign in DOW2 as they were aggressively recruiting when the Tyranids came hence the reason for their shortage of numbers.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.138.162.6 (talk) 00:07, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
