On another subject-
I've been playing tons of DoW:Winter Assault lately, to the point of reneging a bit on my want of SupCom1+FA. My question however is which is better overall for solo skirmish play- DC or SS?
On the one hand, SS has a total of 9 races, allowing me to have a very varied line-up in 8P AI skirmishes, as well as having flying units. I haven't got much experience with said units, having only played the demo, but the seem interesting and at least marginally useful in some roles.
But with Dark Crusade, I have a nice setup and lineup, plus a pretty neat campaign that sounds very interesting (more interesting than the SS campaign anyway).
What will really make or break SS for me is how well air units work, as well as general balance/level of fun. Are air units fun to use? Do they have any combat usefulness or do the tend towards a more multirole capability for some races? Is the game balanced to the point that any 1 race can take on any 1 other and have a reasonable chance of success, considering that 1 player is human and the other AI (no MP for me)?
EDIT: I should have also included this, but how much fun are the campaigns for each one? Does DC's campaign shine more than SS's? Or does Soulstorm have a superior campaign? While I will likely mostly play in skirmish games, I am marginally interested in the campaigns.
On a side note- I am having some trouble winning the 4th campaign mission in WA as the Guard. Tips for success would be appreciated. I've already completed the Order campaign as the Eldar, but would like to try to finish it as the Guard. After all, who doesn't like the Baneblade making things go boom?
