Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War III is a Real-Time Strategy and the third game of the Dawn of War series, based on Warhammer 40,000. The game is developed by Relic Entertainment and published by Sega. Relic released a trailer on May 3rd, 2016 confirming the development of the game. The game was released on 27th April 2017 for PC.The planet Acheron, the wandering world, will soon emerge from the Warp, and bring with it a catastrophic weapon known as the "Spear of Khaine". Three forces converge on the planet - the Blood Ravens Space Marines under legendary commander Gabriel Angelos, the Eldar of Biel-Tan led by Lord Kyre and accompanied by Farseer Macha (returning from the first game), and an Ork horde of the Bad Moons led by Warlord Gorgutz (his fourth appearance, after Winter Assault, Dark Crusade, and Soulstorm). The Astra Militarum/Imperial Guard also appear, though as a non-playable faction.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The game saw the return of base building from the first game series and large armies, whilst also retaining some elements from the second series such as Heroes, and expanded on the concept by also adding "Elite Units" and "Super Units". For Multiplayer, there was one mode available at launch that was called "Power Core". The game objective of the mode is to have players destroy their opponent's power generators and turrets defending their bases before finally destroying the opposition's power core and thus win the game. The developers stated that more multiplayer modes will be added post-launch.As of 8th February 2018 however, Relic announced that they would no longer support the game and cancelled all planned content and expansions, citing lower-than-expected sales. This leaves the future of the Dawn of War series in question.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); }) | |

Video-Game Flamethrowers Suck | |
| Dawn of War III (Video Game) / int_10c393f5 | comment |
Video Game Flamethrowers Suck: Flamers are no longer treated as a weapon, instead they're considered a type of special ability that requires cool-down and directional deployment. Should you manage to take the time to do all that and survive, then the Space Marine will hose a target area with flame (normally Marines with flamers just use their bolters). This leads to players greatly favouring the plasma gun as the weapon option. | |

Autobots, Rock Out! | |
| Dawn of War III (Video Game) / int_2d395ee9 | comment |
Autobots, Rock Out!: Ork Waaagh! towers are equipped with huge audio amps that can be triggered to play doof-style music, while some Ork yells over the speakers, "Orks iz made for rokkin!" This buffs the speed and offense of all Ork units near the Waaagh! tower. The main drawbacks are that the towers are loud enough to be heard from very far away, take extra damage while playing, and also show up on the mini-map of the enemy players. | |

Geo Effects | |
| Dawn of War III (Video Game) / int_35a24c16 | comment |
Geo Effects: The Space Marine Chapter Standard allows them to lay claim to an area, with the Standard granting stacking bonuses to nearby allies (a shield in tier 1, periodic orbital strikes on enemy units in tier 2 and constant healing in tier 3). Fittingly, though, if the Standard is captured by the enemy, the effects end. | |

| Dawn of War III (Video Game) / int_36ed3e1e | comment |
Ascended Meme: A lot of fan art for Farseer Macha had her depicted as a redhead (despite her hair color in the original game being orange) and having three red lines on both her cheeks. Come this game, where she is without a helmet, her depiction is almost the same way as the fan artwork (almost in that her hair is tied rather than loose). Crashing a spaceship into a huge daemon? The Angry Marines did it first.◊ | |

Artifact of Doom | |
| Dawn of War III (Video Game) / int_3b5fcbb7 | comment |
Artifact of Doom: The Spear of Khaine, a powerful weapon which is sought by all three races. Though in the case of the Blood Ravens, Gabriel has no interest obtaining the Spear and seeks to prevent the other two from using its power, as according to him it can corrupt anyone who wields it. As it turns it was all a trick. The spear was set as a trap by Chaos to lure anybody who sought it to fight each other, and eventually one when enough blood was spilled and somebody actually tried to use the spear, it would spill their blood and use it as a sacrifice to release a giant daemon. | |

Zerg Rush: The Ork trailer shows them to fit the trope perfectly. It fits them mechanically too, as not only can they build inexpensive units quickly, but the "scrap" mechanics allow them to rapidly raise new units in the aftermath of any major battle. | |

| Dawn of War III (Video Game) / int_450d9b75 | comment |
Scavenged Punk: Ork's aesthetics and mechanics play up this theme. Virtually all Ork infantry is capable of upgrading themselves by sorting through piles of loose scrap and Macgyvering together additional arms and armour. Further, Gretchin can quickly turn such scrap piles into new buildings and functional vehicles at a resource discount and without having to go through base buildings. | |

You Have Researched Breathing: Unlike the previous games, certain basic skills are not bought as upgrades (so no more plunking down 'X' resources to have your Space Marine throw frag grenades). Instead a number of previously basic skills can only be gained if you have the correct Elite unit present, or if you experience grinded enough to have purchased it as a buyable doctrine (maximum of 3 doctrines at once). | |

Cutting Off the Branches | |
| Dawn of War III (Video Game) / int_52475ffd | comment |
Cutting Off the Branches: Gabriel Angelos' presence confirms that Retribution's Space Marine ending is canon. Though the presence of Taldeer as a Wraithknight suggests that some of the other factions endings are also canon to an extent (as her Soulstone is only retrieved in the Eldar ending by her brother, who is her pilot). On Mission 7's loading screen for the Orks, the small info text reveals that Gorgutz had conquered Kaurava and thus making him the canonical victor of Soulstorm's campaign. | |

And the Ground-Shattering Landing of the Imperial Knight would be more detrimental since the Square-Cube Law and the Knight's sheer size would have shattered both its external and internal components. In addition, Imperial Knights are canonically usually deployed on planet by ship rather than Dynamic Entry from the sky, as in the seen here. | |

Taldeer returns as a Wraithknight, with her brother Rohnan as her pilot. Diomedes returns but has apparently stepped down as First Company Captain and has taken the role of a Chaplain (and wearing Terminator Armor). | |

What Happened to the Mouse?: Acheron is violently destroyed at the end of the game, implicitly wiping out almost all of the forces that were still fighting on the planet and likely destroying any ships still in orbit. While Macha handwaves it by saying that "some escaped", only herself, Gabriel and Gorgutz are present in the final mission, leaving virtually every other character in the game completely unaccounted for by the time the credits roll. | |

Rule of Symbolism: The announcement trailer shows us a rain of countless bodies falling from the sky and landing on an enormous pit of corpses. This is likely to symbolize the state of the 41st millennium in general: endless wars are waged, countless battles fought and nothing but mountains of corpses are left by the end of the day. | |

Took a Level in Badass: In the previous game, the Wraithguard could not move swiftly without the aid of a Warlock or Farseer (as, in canon, they rely on a Warlock or Farseer to see properly). In this game, they function just fine without them and are just as deadly. | |

Continuity Nod | |
| Dawn of War III (Video Game) / int_9dab0a6e | comment |
Continuity Nod: During the last cinematic in Retribution's Space Marine campaign, Apollo Diomedes stated that he could not serve the chapter in the same manner as before. Sure enough, he's now a Chaplain rather than a Captain. During Macha's conversation with Jain Zar, Macha mentions her feud and temporary alliance with Gabriel Angelos during the Tartarus campaign and how he failed her and allowed darkness to prevail. note She means Gabriel failing to heed her warnings to not destroy the Maledictum that contained a powerful Greater Daemon of Khorne. While preparing to face the Storm Prince, Gabriel mentions the above, and how his actions almost destroyed his chapter. Gorgutz mentions to his underlings that he came to Cyprus Ultima because of information detailing Acheron that he obtained from the Eldar during the Kaurava campaign. Jonah also mentions Kaurava, and how Gorgutz is responsible for the deaths of several of their battle-brothers. Furthermore, loading screens reveal that Gorgutz is actually the canonical winner of Soulstorm. | |

Evil Is Not a Toy | |
| Dawn of War III (Video Game) / int_9fb2452d | comment |
Evil Is Not a Toy: Ronahn and Macha attempt to pit Gorgutz against Kyre so the latter's forces are drawn away from guarding Taldeer's soul stone. This ends up working a bit too well as the Orks end up crushing the Eldar forces guarding the vault, then start to attack the base Macha and her insurgents intended to rob. It ultimately works in their favor, providing an ample distraction that allows them to escape but many Eldar are killed in the process, which Macha was hoping to avoid. | |

Due to the Dead | |
| Dawn of War III (Video Game) / int_a679184b | comment |
Due to the Dead: Anyone familiar with Eldar lore will know that normally they will do anything to recover the soulstones of their fallen kin as plugging them into the infinity circuit of their Craftworld is their only hope of a peaceful afterlife. So when Lord Kyre leaves the soulstones of his subordinates behind, you know immediately he's a wrongun. | |

Rule of Three | |
| Dawn of War III (Video Game) / int_a6cda066 | comment |
Rule of Three: The game's playable races are the Space Marines, the Eldar and the Orks. Compared to the first and second game, this is the first time that the starting races are three rather than four, although it is hinted that a fourth race would also be featured... prior to future updates being canceled. The Astra Militarum will be making an appearance, but as a non-playable race. | |

| Dawn of War III (Video Game) / int_bc2c77d5 | comment |
Living Structure Monster: While not really living monsters, the Ork buildings give a sense of this trope. They appear incredibly unstable and almost about to explode, but the way they are animated makes them look like they are alive. | |

A Commander Is You | |
| Dawn of War III (Video Game) / int_c2c32a79 | comment |
A Commander Is You: Space Marines are an Elitist Generalist faction. Their units are more expensive than the Eldar and Ork equivalents and they have units to suit most situations, but they lack the mobility of the Eldar and the cheapness of the Orks. Eldar are a Balanced Guerrilla/Ranger faction. Their units cost less than Space Marines and can actually put out more DPS, but lack staying power once their shields are broken, encouraging hit-and-run tactics. They also have the most access to stealth and mobility options of the three factions. Orks are a Spammer Generalist faction, with an aspect of Gimmick. They have cheap units which can easily outnumber and swamp the Marines and Eldar, and their units can be upgraded with Scrap to gain various bonuses, and Scrap can also be used to build cheap vehicles in the field. | |

Drop Pod: The Space Marine faction mechanic allows them to deploy units into battle from an orbiting Strike Cruiser in one of these (or being dropped by a Thunderhawk Gunship in the case of vehicles). They can also deploy Deathstorm Drop Pods filled with Assault Cannons. | |

Humongous Mecha: New to the game's roster of humongous mecha are Imperial Knights and Eldar Wraithknights—both miniature versions of their respective factions' Scout Titans (introduced in Epic and finally canonized in 6E), making them roughly the size of an office building. The Ork have the Gorkanauts. | |

Civil Warcraft: Happens with the Orks as Gorgutz fights to bring the rest of the Orks in the sector under his rule, and later multiple missions with the Eldar. First with Macha and Ronahn trying to take to Taldeer's Soulstone. The player can avoid engage the Eldar guarding it for most of the mission, but once it is stolen they will attack the player's forces. Another occurs after as Kyre wants it back and offers them a chance to rejoin him, and he responds with violence as they refuse. | |

Artistic License – Physics | |
| Dawn of War III (Video Game) / int_fc225bec | comment |
Artistic License – Physics: Even in a universe that flips the bird to physics, it should not to be possible for Gabriel Angelos to leap several feet up in the air in Terminator Armor. His augmentic legs must be pretty powerful. And the Ground-Shattering Landing of the Imperial Knight would be more detrimental since the Square-Cube Law and the Knight's sheer size would have shattered both its external and internal components. In addition, Imperial Knights are canonically usually deployed on planet by ship rather than Dynamic Entry from the sky, as in the seen here. Acheron is so massive that its gravity should be wreaking havoc on the entire system, especially Cyprus, given that it appears to be the size of Jupiter and is as close to Cyprus as the Earth to its moon when it appears out of the warp. | |

You Require More Vespene Gas: As in the previous games, resources are requisition and power along with elite points that are used to summon Elite Units and Heroes. Strategic points are located around the map, and upon capturing them players can build nodes for requisition and power and can purchase add-ons that allow an increase in resource gathering. | |
