Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War IV · Category index
Mechanics
The named systems, abilities and resources Dawn of War IV runs on: Action Points and Requisition in Crusade, the Ork Waaagh!, the Combat Director that drives its combat animation, the Painter customisation tool, and the faction networks revealed in the developer deep dives. Seventeen are documented so far. Mechanics are the part of a strategy game that reference sites describe last and worst, so each page fixes the exact published effect before anything at all is inferred from it.
