Hello guys,

I have been playing DoW since Dc.A couple of days ago,i went online on Ss and a guy suggested me to dowload UA,which i did;i liked it ALOT,i find it extremely nice and well-developed.

I was interested to know your opinion about the races who are more likely to go for Titans and Nuclear Weapons,since this is the "new" part of DoW experience in UA for me,and i'd like to play tons of Superheavies-Titans-etc.

Moreover,is there any video on Youtube illustrating all Nuclear/Ultimate Weapons' effects?It takes quite a long time to test them on the field.

I thank you in advance,

Xainon

the superweapon can be different between them but have some in common utter destruction, but some Races have multiple use for ex Tau develop a weapon that destroy only aircraft, or some ion nuke centered on target, try to use all races and experience them with the various superweapons. And then there are the (Win) Superweapon :D

Every race has been designed to go for their titans after enough time has passed and resources have been gained. So just as long as you play a game on high resources with titanwars enabled, you should see titans at the 15 minute mark or so.

Imperial guard are the throned gods of super weapons, they can EASILY dish out nuke, after nuke, after nuke, and a super condensed ion cannon beam to melt the enemies own super weapon before it even has the chance to fire.

I find Chaos Daemons the strongest. They don't have the relic cap and you can use their bosses' to increase tank cap to 60. They have basically two Titans but their Chaos gods and princes, just amazing...

Most practical race, right now, for generating shedloads of titans - Orks. They can make more titans than anyone else, period, and it's not uncommon to see Ork AIs with 3 gargants or a half dozen squiggoths. They also can make an enormous requisition income. So there's that. Certain races also have much better win buttons than others. IDH probably has one of the best ones with Exterminatus. The Necron win button is also extremely potent. Necrons also have some of the most powerful endgame abilities in general, though they don't have an Angron (chaos daemon demigod who is a walking superweapon that can fire more superweapons).

Lord Cylarne did confirm a while ago that the Void Dragon (one of the most powerful Necron C'tan gods/star gods) is going to be included as an angron like Demigo that specializes in controlling enemy vehicles.
