You carry nothing with you from one game to the next,вЂќ says Lead Designer Jonny Ebbert. вЂњ you spend 30-60 minutes building this massive army, collecting all these resources, and building a massive base, and then you just abandon it. Point one: RTS gamesвЂ™ lack of long-term goals. In conceiving DoWII, Relic identified three key areas it feels the RTS genre needs to improve in order to compete with shooters and role-playing games. But seeing the *ahem* competition looming on the horizon, with its time-tested and expertly refined version of that formula (and in a very similar setting, no less) is major motivation to innovate. Instead, itвЂ™s planning some radical departures from the first game, which, with the exceptions of innovations like capturable control points and a basic cover system, followed the old-school RTS recipe fairly closely. ItвЂ™s essentially the same dark and gritty story we heard when Dawn of War launched in 2004, but the team behind Dawn of War II has no intention of making the same game twice. As a Force Commander leading an elite team of Marines aboard a Battle Barge starship, youвЂ™re charged with choosing your battles wisely and pushing the invading armies out of Imperial space.
