Product Description
"Ten thousand years have passed since the treasonous acts of Chaos toppled the Golden Age of mankind. Fires burn brightly throughout the galaxies, illuminating carnage and slaughter as mankind defends itself from ancient enemies. Hardened forces collide with one goal in mind, the complete extermination of their opposition. "Game of the Year" developer, Relic Entertainment, brings the world's most successful table-top war game to the PC. Control one of five unique races in head-to-head or cooperative multiplayer action, where faith, skill, and strategy are requisites in ruling the universe. Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War: Gold Edition presents the most exciting, visceral, frontline battlefield ever seen in a Real Time Strategy game with "Game of the Year" Dawn of War and "Expansion Pack of the Year" Winter Assault combined in one package."
