DoW question

Post by Lord Revan »

is it possible to finish the single player campain with IG without cheating (even on easy difficulty)?

I always seem to get overrun by units that seem just spawn out of nowhere (not a stronghold) and these any tier 1 units either the SM commander seems to have at least 5 Terminator squads (total including both assault and normal) and those seemed to respawn more or less right away.

Yes. Just turtle up on the strategic map so the AI wastes their honor guard in a futile attempt to capture your regions, then move in with your own sizable honor guard when they've depleted their forces.

Oh man. Well, the first thing to remember is that as the Guard, your vehicles are ALWAYS your best friends. Hellhounds, Leman Rus, even sentinals and Chimeras are all useful. But even more useful than that are your Guardsmen. I recomend using as many meatshields-I mean guardsmen-as you can.
If a specific level is giving you trouble, tell us which one it is. Some of those provinces require special tactics.

the one under the industrial procduction one I can capture only 3-5 point (and second time both relics) without getting swarmed more space marines then there should even be in a codex chapter (there seems just no end to those) I neeed about 1000000-2000000 in both requisition and power (not even mention 1000 unit limit) to even keep the 3 first points you can capture (and that with Mars Pattern command and Baneblade in the field).

Edit:and that's no joke I getting swarmed by fully upgraded Terminator squads like there were normal tactical squads (no tech tree thing they didn't break was Land Raiders needing Relics thank the emperor).

note also it doesn't help when your side has most idiotic people in the whole imperial guard, I swear Ogryns in other units are smarter then my men.
