Well we all have our preferences.. i think you tell from sig what mine is.. the FMV looks meh.. compared to SC2 FMV sequence.... the screenshots look nice... but its too obvious they are using the essence engine from CoH (My 2nd fav RTS of all time) which does not excite me as much as  new engine would.

My top 5 RTS games:

1. Starcraft
2. Company of heroes
3. Metal Fatigue ( a little known rts.. but a dan fine 1 at that)
4. Dawn of war
5. CnC red alert

Dawn of War 2 is not a MMORTS...it's just a RTS. A MMORTS would require a world in which everyone would interact and be able to explore at the same time without barriers getting in the way and no "game lobbies" like the towns you see in Guild Wars, etc...

Games I've played:
AoC, EQ2, WoW, Vangaurd, LoTRO, D&DO, Lineage 2, Saga Of Ryzom, EvE Online, DAoC, Guild Wars, Star Wars Galaxies, Auto Assault, Grando Espada ( AKA SoTNW ), Archlord, CoV/H.

Games I Am Currently Playing:

EVE Online

Dawn of War II is not a MMOG, but I believe that this same publisher (THQ) does indeed have the rights to make a MMOG based on Warhammer 40k.  But I don't know if Relic is working on that game or if it is even in production.
