My copy of Dawn of War should arrive in a few days, just in time for the weekends.


Inspired by the Starcraft thread, I was wondering if anyone could be interested in a small multiplayer match amongst DOW players?

Sounds good. I was feeling left out once I remembered that Blizzard had disabled by CD-key without warning or explanation.

On the off chance that you need it, I live in the Central time zone.

I'm in Central too. If possible, I'll give it a shot.

mine comes next week

I'm always open for a game.

Let's stomp some humiez!

just got it yesterday. best start practising.

IF you lot can put up with a dialup user, and IF I'm not in the middle of moving at the time, I could dust off my copy. I retired for a while after realizing the sad state of the general online playerbase...a newbie like myself shouldn't have been able to rack up something like 15 consecutive victories before finally losing to a 3v1

I'll try and be as unconventional and sneaky as possible monkeigh

...I take it this's off?

I don't know but I just got it mon keigh

I'm up for it!

Klan Nub will crush you all. Name a time.

Meh, I'm gonna get mashed, stopped playing a while ago. Ah well, all's fun in love and masochism.

EDIT: I should be around most of the day, about to go grab some food. I need to patch up, too, but I'll set that to DL before I go eat. Yes, I'm on dialup, but I get 8-hour stability, and I doubt our game's gonna last that long

EDIT 2: 1:22 PM EST: 5 megs remaining on patch DL. What's the word?

I'm getting error messages on my copy when I DLed the patch...

Has a bunch of fixes for patch errors. Hope it helps, my patch went fine.

I had the "corrupted" issue too. What fixed it for me was deleting several older games, freeing up about 2 GB.

Alright, everyone who /has/ a working copy of 1.1 DoW, sound off and give times you're available. Let's get a working count going.

Me, from now til 1-2AM EST, with a dinner break somewhere in there. DoW 1.1 tested in skirmish.

Roughly the same times as Haven here.

I am free today, and hopefully most of tomorrow.

I didn't notice there were so many replies here so I thought no one was interested but looks like I'm wrong.


Should we play a game just online, or should we try to do that direct hosting thing?

If I can have a volunteer to test out my direct host game:


Game name: sdnet

game password: wong


IP address: 68.4.72.167



Let's just see if it works, first of all.


EDIT: If one of you actually joins up and I don't speak, it's cause I'm here.

I'm in.

If Take & Hold isn't on there I'll be forced to purge the unclean.

As requested, Inquisitor!


EDIT: So, yeah it works. The map's currently set to Mortalis (better for a quick take and hold game) and I'm just gonna leave it on for anyone to join; if we have enough willing people at any point, we'll start and see if the game works.

GAH!!! My W40k.exe encountered a fatal exception error in the middle of the game!!


But it was a smacking good one though.

You were getting shredded by the AI.

My Force Commander saved your ass. Heroicly.

My end score was also "13371"

We won, if it's any consolation. Try again?
