Dawn of War Dark Crusade Definitive Edition Guides

Hello ladies and gentlemen. Here are my guides for the Dark Crusade campaign playing on the hard difficulty. This is the hardest difficulty setting in the game. I will cover my recommended conquest route, war gear recommendations, give examples of how to perform a successful attack and defense for the faction, example armies, stronghold recommendations, and go over basic game mechanics, etc. Please see the timestamps for assistance if you are an experienced player and only need assistance on a certain topic. If you need more information, I will also upload my playthrough as well which is under a different playlist.

I upload multiplayer matches of various games on Monday and Wednesday, a daily playthrough and a guide or other smaller series every Tuesday or Thursday at 6pm US central time.
