DOW 2 sucks.I have never played it and I know that.Why?It has no gorgutz.So it sucks.

In my opinion Kapt'n Bluddflag is better than Gorgutz, and you're depriving yourself of one of the most awesome orks in the 40k universe.

OI, YOUS LOT! YOU'Z PART OF MY KREW NOW! ANY PROBLEMS WITH DAT, YA TALK TA DA COMPLAINTS DEPARTMENT. DATS MY GUN, BY DA WAY!

Gorgutz is da best!And he's BIGGA!He could krump yer kaptain with his power klaw tied behind his back!I want dat kaptains ead for me pointy stick!

Gorgutz is a poor man's Thrakka. Bludflagg is a god damn pirate Ork captain and he's brimming with character.

Seriously, Barun, you should try DoW2: Retribution and give the Freeboota a go. Meet your krew... Spookums, Mister Nailbrain and Brikkfist.

Shame dawn of war dark crusade was a lot of fun

You seem to be receptive...

In either case, both orks have their good sides, and I enjoyed both of them. Kaptain Bludflagg has much more character going for him, though, and the commentary between him and his crew throughout the campaign is hilarious.

For example,
Mista Nailbrain; Uh, boss?

Bludflagg; Not now, Mista Nailbrain, I 'aven't finished sassing dis eldar git yet.

And also, summary execution for not agreeing which ork is better? What has the Commisariat degraded into?

... you also get a Deffrolla in the Ork Campaign, iirc.

I respect dat pirate.So I'll give him a choice:Work for the REAL boss or get mounted on his pointy stik.

The battlewagon with a Deffrolla was even in DoW2 if I recall correctly. Buldozing through a wall into a squad of enemy troops in multiplayer was awesome, as was my finest moment with the Kommando Nob where I threw a blanket of grenades on the ground and forced a mob of Eldar to fall back into it, gibbing all of them instantly

It was also horribly balanced, and full of glitches. Multiplayer devolved into whoever could get either the most powerful creature type first, or whoever managed to figure out whose getting it and get the counter.

Yeah, by Tier 5 it was all moose lobsters, mammoth ravens, and baboon sperm whales.

I was a rebel with my behemoths but then again I tended to get stomped on pretty hard online.

The A.I was also pretty slowed.

empire and napoleon were easily the worst total war games. I used to love total war, but creative assembly have butchered the series with their focus on metacritic and arcade gameplay over deep gameplay and tactical combat.

Exactly this but no at all, Empire and Napoleon are so far the best and most tactical in the series.
