Anybody else noticed this when they log into D.O.W.2?

Happy to announce that Khorne, Nurgle and Tzeentch will be differing factions for Online multiplayer! (Chosen through the different champions it would seem)

No Slaanesh though. Conspicuous in their absence I think.

Hive Tyrant and Chaos Sorcerer will be available in last stand.

New free for all game mode.

I had hoped they would sneak in Imperial Guard, sadly no.

Thoughts?

I didn't like the multiplayer setup in this game other than The Last Stand. I like the thought of beating down those carnifexes with a Hive Tyrant. I would like to see either an expantion or a mod that gives a Tau campaign option. Since the campaign maps lend themselves to guerilla warfare (and thats what tau practice) it would be interesting. That or orks. It would be silly fun to "control" a mini horde.

Mmm Tau on Dawn of War 2... it would be really nice. And if they came with Necrons, much better!
