i think i'm going to read more somethingawful reviews 'cause they're a lot more honest than most of the interwebz... when they're not totally misleading with their sarcasm.

dark crusade:
beat up everyone(using orkys) except the eldar and won. i waited for the tau and eldar to kill each other 1st, which didn't help much, since the tau beat the eldar without losing most of their honour guards.

it seems that attacking the eldar main base while it's controlled by another faction(which defeated it before i did) transforms it into a regular "destroy all HQs" mission. so capturing the gaint webways didn't weaken the occupying tau forces at all, and the ork allies got replaced with tau troops.... which means, if i had waited for someone else to beat the necron, chaos and space marine bases, i would have a much easier time beating those re-occupied maps.

the necron base won't be a plant a bomb mission, but it wouldn't have 4 monoliths attacking me if i don't destroy them early. the chaos base wouldn't give me extra troops to rescue, but it wouldn't have those instant death dealing blood pulses. the space marines' base wouldn't have an orbital relay building, which would also mean i couldn't capture it and use it. i know now, the eldar base wouldn't be any easier. i'm guessing the tau base won't be easier too, because an assassination mission is a lot less fuss than a destroy all HQs vanilla mission. the ork and imperial bases should be harder without rebel units assisting me.

I did stuff in games none of you have heard of or will ever play.

please elaborate (as long as it doesn't involve dynasty warriors, or fighting games with phallic objects)
