DoW: Dark Crusade (Warhammer 40k) 
If you haven't had a chance to check out the Dawn of War series you are definitely missing out. It is by far the best rts series I have ever played. It is based off of the Warhammer 40,000 world, and with the new expansions you can choose between 7 races including: necrons, tau, imperial guard, space marines, chaos, orcs, and eldar.  They have recently released a platinum version of this game which includes the base game and both expansions and for under $40. Make sure you check it out and keep your eye out for the new expansion (DoW Soulstorm) which is soon to be released.

I'm not really familiar with Warhammer and particularly Dawn of War. How does it compare to say World of Warcraft or Command and Conquer?

Re: DoW: Dark Crusade (Warhammer 40k) 
The graphics and such are pretty good, there are quite a few individual and race specific unit types. I never really got into command and conquer, so I don't how to compare them, but there is a free demo for the expansion available for downloading. If you are interested to find out a little about the game, look up "dawn of war soulstorm demo". You will only be able to play with the new race dark eldar, and a couple of basic levels including a tutorial. This is a great introduction to the game and how some of the game mechanics work. I hope you enjoy it.

shalom,

Cool. I'm downloading the demo now. Hopefully I'll have some time this weekend to try it out.
