That's what surprised me most with the add on announcement. I expected them to say IG and Tyranids or something. Now it will be IG against the same enemies you fought in the last campaign. They'll have to pull something extra special out of the hat to make that good.

Sad thing is they might use the xpansion just as cashcow and save most races to a sequel (if that ever gets made). 'sides they already have art assets for the Imperial guard.

On positive side they might go with same route as warcraft3 did, enchance the existing races with new units, skills and buildings. But this is just wish thinking.

What I've heard is that they're not recyclying any of the IG stuff from the original DoW game. Every Imperial Guard unit in the expansion is supposed to be made from scratch and brand new.

Isn't Warcraft a corruption of Warhammer. Starcraft would just be their WH40K
