Back in 2004, Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War was released. It was astounding, fun, epic, and really captured the Warhammer 40K universe and displayed it into a game. It differs from other RTS using unit squads instead of single units, different types of cover, strategic points, and that's why it was awesome. Soundtrack fits the theme really well, single player campaign was a blast to play, but story was your typical 40K story. Too bad the game is over 14 years old and the multiplayer is dead now, but still aged well in terms of overall gameplay still being a fun to play RTS experience. I recommend anyone who's a sucker for Warhammer 40K, RTS fans, and old school players to play this hidden and old gem.

P.S. The game and the series did not ripoff StarCraft OK? One of the worst forms of heresy is by blindly calling Warhammer 40K "a StarCraft ripoff" without doing research first.
