While the trailer is nice (Good,Bad,Ugly reference noted), the space marine should indeed have shot everybody. Eldar and orks, ok, they are backstabbing type of guys, but the Space Marine? Never.

P.S. And yay for non-bald, non-screaming Space Marine.
EDIT: How come I'm American again? I switch from Germany to EU to American flag randomly I feel. Can I correct that manually or is it dependent on serverstuff or the like?

It's dependant on your ISP. You can PM a mod and ask him to lock it in place for you I believe.
At least it's only done for gaming purposes. If you're such a puritan, use a Force Commander, Apothecary, and Techpriest.
People are like dice, a certain Frenchman said that. You throw yourself in the direction of your own choosing. People are free because they can do that. Everyone's circumstances are different, but no matter how small the choice, at the very least, you can throw yourself. It's not chance or fate. It's the choice you made.

Once a dakka member is awesome enough, he becomes an honorary american. Of course, that's also the penalty for being a big enough jerk, so you learn to take the good with the bad.
Cyrus (as an aside, I fethin' hate Cyrus): The sky is falling! The sky is falling... I mean, nids are coming. We're all so dead. Nids are made of awesome and evil and will eat all our souls for breakfast. I know all about nids, and we're boned.
Tarkus: Never give up hope, cyrus, the emperor protects!
Farseer: Mebbe we should work together and kill the nids as a team. The orks, too. They'd be useful.
Thaddeus: Yeah! Awesome! All right! I'm enthusiastic about everything!
Cyrus: We're all dead, with the chittering and the screaming and the scything talons that scythe and stuff - [gibbers incoherently in his pedophile voice]
Avitus: I say we do it, then kill the xenos witch once the tyranids are dealt with.
Farseer: I can still hear you guys.
Tarkus: All right, xenos witch, we'll stand beside you until the tyranids are defeated. Then we kill you.
Avitus: But no fethin' orks! I can still remember the last time one of them tried to loot me. A mek took my catheter and used it as part of the grossest Big Shoota ever!
Thaddeus: Yeah! No orks!
Cyrus: I can still remember the feel of the filthy Tyranids as they grabbed a hold of me, removing my scout armour, preparing to do terrible... terrible things. I could hear the rest of my squad yelling out...
Farseer: Look, we need the orks. Look at it this way. The orks kill the nids, the nids kill the orks, everyone wins!
Tarkus: Fine. It's a deal.
Cyrus: with the claws and the smell, oh god, the smell -
Farseer: Agreed then. Why doesn't your commander ever speak?
Tarkus: Because I'm the one in charge, witch, and don't you forget it.
Cyrus: SQUAD BROKEN! SQUAD BROKEN!

Cookie for the reference.
I don't suppose you're referencing this (1:18)? Of course you're not. I just wanted to share.

Okay... What gives? Why has DoWII released no other races?! Unless this new campaign has a surprise ending where the Tyranids join forces with everybody to fight Chaos and Imperial Guard, I'm just not that excited.
You can't spell 'slaughter' without 'laughter'. By the time they scream... It's too late. DQ:70+S+++G++M+B+I+Pw40k94#-D+A++/areWD106R++T(R)DM+ Check my P&M blarg! - Ke'lshan Tau Fire Caste Contingent: Astartes Hunters
It's not really a campaign, it's kind of a survival/last stand (hence the name ) coop map where you can level your characters. It's just wave after wave of 'nids until you get killed. Violently. Then eaten.

Crossing fingers that those guard will be playable...

Ok, maybe not eaten then. Still, not really a full-fledged expansion or something. Heck, it's free, don't expect too much. I'm sure an expansion (or 3) is in the pipeline with new races and campaigns.
I think they did a good job with adequate support for DoW, so I would expect something similar here.

DoW II is on too small a scale for IG.
Orks aren't very numerous, and the 'Nid swarm units are really weak.
