Chaos Sorcerer

The Chaos Sorcerer is an offensive spell caster, who makes between teleportation and even more destructive abilities. This hero is recommended for more experienced players since he can be very fragile. He can be played as support hero, as a damage dealer or hybrid of both.

Farseer

The Farseer is mainly a support hero that relies on her capabilities to cast protective buffs as well as hide her allies or teleport them away from danger. The main abilities of the Farseer are Confuse and Veil of Tears which causes enemies to attack each other. The Farseer is also capable of cloaking and teleporting friendly units.

Mekboy

The Mekboy is a ranged teleporting damage dealer. This hero is easy to start with as the required equipment becomes available early in the progression system. He can also be used as a suicide bomber that unleashes devastating amounts of damage.

Captain

The Captain is an all-round hero that is good in ranged and melee combat, while various abilities are mainly focused on melee combat. This hero is able to call-down the might Dreadnought to support him and his allies against the enemy invaders.

Lord General

The Lord General is a defensive specialist who is capable of deploying different types of buildings and infantry squads to assist him and the team. Equipped with these abilities this hero allows the player to explore many different strategies that lead to victory.

Hive Tyrant

The Hive Tyrant is a slow but hero that cannot be suppressed or knocked down.
This hero’s strength lie within his brutal melee weapons that will slice enemies apart and his ability to summon units of Tyranids to the battlefield make him a powerful addition to any team.

DLCs included:

The Last Stand Tau Commander
The Tau Commander is a new hero for Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II: Retribution™ and Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II: The Last Stand Alone™. The Tau Commander comes with 26 pieces of wargear, 2 achievements, an all new voice and 20 levels of progression. The Tau Commander is an offensively potent hero who can only fire at range and is vulnerable in melee. He can summon one of up to three drones to support his efforts.

Chaos Sorcerer Wargear
Revamp your heroes and find new ways to play and compete in The Last Stand with these new Wargear pieces.
Rubric Touched Helm (Accessory)

This accessory has a single trait assigned to it called Dark Fortification. When the Sorcerer is struck in melee he gains 150 armor rating for 10 seconds. As long as he moves from melee combat to melee combat he will be extremely resistant to both melee and ranged damage.
Oracle Stave (Two handed weapon)

This bad boy is one of my favourites. Its damage output isn’t particularly fantastic but it has a chance to trigger a trait called Fate Weaver. Fate Weaver charges up the weapon to ridiculous proportions causing the Sorcerer’s next melee attack to do incredible single target damage, and significant area of effect damage around the attack. This way you can engage chaff and get your armor and damage up, move over to a high priority target and unleash the pain.

Death Korps of Krieg Skin Pack
The Imperial Guard Death Korps of Krieg Regiment Pack adds the iconic Imperial Guard regiment to Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II: Retribution™ with ten unique models for the major multiplayer units as well as the Death Korps of Krieg distinctive color patterns. The Lord General is updated with the distinctive Death Korps gas mask and uniform his regiment also now sports the uniform and look of the Death Korps. The Commissar Lord also wears the Death Korps gas mask and his Commissar brethren have also taken their rightful places atop the turrets of the Chimeras and Leman Russ tanks of the Death Korps, sporting new animations as they command the forces of the Imperium into battle. The Inquisitor has donned a unique skull faced gas mask. The Imperial Guardsmen all sport the distinctive gas masks, uniforms and lasrifles of the Death Korps including the Sergeants and Heavy Weapons teams. The Leman Russ has been updated to bear the mighty Executioner Cannon as well as its new Commissar and the Ogryns have been updated with gas masks as well.

Farseer Wargear
Revamp your heroes and find new ways to play and compete in The Last Stand with these new Wargear pieces.
Debilitating Witchblade (One handed weapon)

This witchblade is meant to be a tank weapon, if you are familiar with MMORPG terms. If you aren’t, that means she can go toe to toe with the biggest creatures in Last Stand using this sword, but you trade off damage. The sword has two traits: Sap and Energy Leach. Sap reduces the melee damage of anything hit in melee by 50% for 5 seconds. Energy Leach will increase the Farseer’s energy every time she kills something in melee.
Idranel’s Armor (Armor)

This armor is named after the infamous Farseer from the Dawn of War II campaign. It is another piece designed to improve the Farseer’s chances in melee and her durability in general. It will increase her total health and give her the traits Unshakable and Foresight. Foresight reduces incoming melee damage. If only Idranel could have seen that uppercut coming from Tarkus.

Hive Tyrant Wargear
Revamp your heroes and find new ways to play and compete in The Last Stand with these new Wargear pieces.
Thornback Carapace (Armor)

Not to be confused with Thornback, the Thornback Carapace is a very durable armor piece that is covered in blades. Every time an enemy attacks the Hive Tyrant in melee they take damage.
Devourer Cannon

The Devourer Cannon is a unique ranged weapon. It fires a parasite at the enemy which will cause damage over time to their entire squad. To maximize the effect, the Tyranid player should try to attack multiple squads in order to inflict the most amount of damage.

Lord General Wargear
Revamp your heroes and find new ways to play and compete in The Last Stand with these new Wargear pieces.
Ursidae Trophy (Accessory)

This inspiring mantle grants two traits. The first is Inspired Will which increases the health of all of the General’s infantry. The second is Superior Provisions which drastically increases the health of the General’s turrets. Pretty simple but effective and it looks badass.
Ornate Vostroyan Shotgun (Two handed weapon)

So of course if we give the General a bear pelt we have to give him the gun he used to shoot said bear. This shotgun allows the general to carve through mobs of infantry with its AOE attack a little easier than some of his other weapons. It also comes with a Solid Slug ability which will do high single target damage for those pesky Wraithlords and Warbosses.

Mekboy Wargear
Revamp your heroes and find new ways to play and compete in The Last Stand with these new Wargear pieces.
Juiced Up Tellyporta (Accessory)

This Orky teleporter add-on causes a bit of added destruction. It grants a trait called Ported!! What Ported!! does is cause anything teleported by the Mekboy to explode, including himself. This works in conjunction with the Zzap Knife, the Teleporta Pack and the Mad Teleporta Pack.
Pokkit Rokkit Launcha (One handed weapon)

The Pokkit Rokkit Launcha is a much cuter version of the Rokkit Launcha. It is one handed and counts as a pistol. Because it only fire one rocket, it isn’t nearly as powerful as the two handed version but it does provide some knockback for a melee oriented Mek

Sacred Relic Armor (Armor)

The Sacred Relic armor has low-to-medium armor rating but provides the Space Marine with a lot more melee offense. After all, the best defense is to just kill your opponent before he attacks you.
