Dawn of War Codex

Hello guys. As some of you might know I'm a writer for dow2 and the elite mod on GameReplays. Here you can find links to most of my Strategy Guides.

These days, I'm mostly writing about the units that are unique to the elite mod. First came Sternguard Veterans then the Painboy. If you have a particular wish for the next article, feel free to leave a message =)

Ork Painboy

Sternguard Veterans

Capping Guide: Part One Two Three Four Five.

Retreat Guide

Knockback Guide

Has there ever been a comprehensive guide to Grey Knights since their release?

Not yet. I might make one if there's enough players to ask for it.

thx Asmon,(but i already knew about gamreplays)
but i am wondering why i cant find any guide here, or new in gamereplays(only those from you)

my personal wish about guides gonna be about eldar:)


Guides are very important for a forum i think so thx again, i rly hope other players gonna start open new topic for guides, this will help newcomers a lot.

I will happily put up guides or links to guides on the main website if somebody writes them. Screenshots should be included, but I can provide icons, portraits etc. and all sorts of graphs/charts.

Can there be a video guide as well demonstrating the strengths and/or weaknesses of particular builds? Or will it be written exclusive?

If possible, I suggest to update at least the Painboy/Sternguard Veterans guides with the new changes.

Videos are fine. Btw didn't Eye0fHoruS (I think it's spelled like that) do a bunch for his website? What happened to those?

EDIT: Here's a noob graph about damage that I playing with Highcharts options. http://www.dawnofwar.info/index.php?pag ... ike_damage

I personally would love to see some videos/articles that aren't just replays, but strategy guides. Just listening to someone talking for an entire video about basic strategies for each race, tips or tricks for winning engagements, or even just the in's and out's of different units.

There's a very large learning curve between simply playing the game and actually understanding it and the mechanics underneath, and hearing an experienced player explaining his overall strategies and thoughts would be immensely helpful. I know Codex has done some livestreams of himself playing that are similar to what i described, and those were awesome.

Just my 2 cents, thanks for making these!

I would have preferred some more written stuff, but Vids will do.

u can find some here but it is out of date mostly:)
8 pages, on the 1. page you can find stuff from 2013:P
