The Kaurava star system, home to four distinct planets, is at the mercy of a Warp Storm that has attracted the many clashing Dawn of War factions, but for very different reasons. Some seek to use the storm for their own purposes, some fear the presence of Chaos corruption, and others are simply curious. The Warp Storm interferes with starship navigation systems, so once the armies arrive they are effectively trapped in Kaurava until a victor emerges or the storm subsides.
Soulstorm is a stand-alone expansion like Dark Crusade, which means that players will have access to all 9 races out of the box in the single-player campaign. Online players will be able to play with the 2 new races, but will also have access to whatever Dawn of War content they may have previously purchased.
Planned release is in Spring 2008. |
