You mention daemon princes? They have daemon armour. Have a look at the damage ratings of the weapons on a dreadnaught for example: There are several different armour classes in the game: infantry-low, infantry-medium, infantry-high, infantry-commander, vehicle-low, vehicle-high,daemon etc etc etcĪnd weapons can range from very weak to very strong against any of these classes. But god help any foe of yours if they don't have an answer for vehicle armour. Any vehicle, including the mighty baneblade can easily be taken out by anti vehicle weapons. Vehicles are incredibly powerful yes, but not overpowered. Moving and engaging full sized armies was a completely painless affair for me on that front. I'm surprised to hear about path finding issues, since I can't remember ever encountering any, at least not in Dark Crusade which I played the most.

I haven't played the game much beyond whatever balance changes they introduced post Soulstorm to try and balance the 9 sides. I think Dawn of War : Dark Crusade offers some of the finest rts single player and multiplayer experiences out there, with 7 remarkably well balanced sides.
