I've tried a demo, and that MOD you sent me Mikeel.. But WinZip won't work anymore, so i'm screwed on .rar files.... Any help for a link to a FREE program for that?

That's too bad. Google WinAce and see if anything comes up if Winrar no longer works. As for this demo, after I download it I'll have to see if I can mod any aspects of it!

EDIT: I searched Wikipedia for .rar and it has a bunch of programs listed that can open .rar files.

First thing about the demo:

"Drop and go" buildings are it

So our friendly Tortured Slave (DE Builder) just starts the summoning of a building and it builds itself kinda like how Necrons and Eldars should both build

2nd thing: The intro sucks. A lot.

Now onto various details:

DE Die like flies

Warriors and Warp beasts kill a lot.

DE Have global spells.

They need souls for said spells, souls that are gathered from random places or dead enemies by your very own tortured slave

Their relic unit is a new vehicle i didn`t get to build

The thing is.... They`re weaker than eldars in the begining.... but when they get to t2 they start to shine

And the relic unit is a bigger ravager, with 2 extra gunners, 2 bodyguards, a throne for some big bad guy and 2 human slaves girls in the middle between the driver and the throne.

Firstly. The intro does not suck.
Secondly. Even though they are very interesting, I'm not going to be a DE player when the title appears on the shelves.

The into is better then the Dark Crusade into, but nothing can touch the original.

And there is no way i'm going to be a DE player...

I havent downlaoded it, as im the kind of person whos going to wait for the main release. i dont like to be teased about the content of a new game by the damn demos >< as for the enw units in the game i dont have it, but apparantly SM's get the tempest. okay in realisty its a nice bit of kit, assualt cannon missile launchers, all good things, but apparntly in the game it gets screwed over. i dont know first ahdn, but thast what davidus is telling me, that and th new SM commander is Irish.
one more thing. the new intro, its Tau butchering Imperials right?

Will try it once exams are over.
And then I'll review it for LastWordReviews.tk (WIP, haha shameless plug)

And yeah I have to say I don't expect this intro to be worse than the DC intro.
In Game Graphics + Marines getting owned = no good

Okay, IronLore logo was cool up till the point i saw that it was BLUE! i mean... wtf?
and 50 seconds of ads is not cool.
But, the trailer is still awesome.
I think they did a much better job with the in-game graphics based trailer this time (last time the only cool thing was the gun-cam thing).
You can tell all of the scripted sequences, and they are still cool.

Bar the few unrealistic animations (guardsman randomly exploding and getting thrown at 3E8 m/s backward and the sister's stepping over a guy looking a bit slidy and such) this is way better than the DC trailer.
