It pretty much never served a purpose in RTS games, for the most part. The only real exception is Supreme Commander.

Field improvements(Mines/sandbags/bunkers/tank traps/etc.) are the only construction that actually matters to gameplay.

It's not like the two seconds you spend telling a worker to plop down the same order of tech buildings every match actually meant anything.

Okay, let's be real here for a moment.

1) DoW sold a lot better that DoW2.
2) The market is fully saturated with MOBAs and MOBA likes.
3) Despite "ded gaem" the latest Starcraft 2 expansion solid over 1 million copies in 24 hours.
4) The source material is much more fitting for LARGE battles than little squad based skirmishes.

In conclusion, they'd have to be retarded to not have basebuilding. Problem is that they very well might be retarded.

They don't land on a enemy controlled planet and build fucking bases before going off to destroy something. They drop down and destroy the thing then fucking get out of there.

I'm sure the Blood Angels would have had all the time in the world to build bases, factories and barracks in the Cryptus system which had the largest tendril of Hive Fleet Leviathan in it. I'm sure they had time to build things.

Also, remember that time that the Raven Guard landed on a planet and recruited people then and there to join then? Yeah, it's not like that's not how Space Marines work :^)

The scale of 40k "large" battles would have infantry in single pixels. Its far more interesting to have a squad-based game because you can focus on the characters that the narrative actually focuses on. The huge war is just a backdrop which nobody really wins.

>>336348901
I don't get this. The gameplay between 1 and 2 really isn't different at all. 2 just doesn't have pointless base building shit, and no relic capture points.

Both play almost identically, with the only major difference in combat being the retreat mechanic, and 1 let you reinforce in the field while 2 required you to retreat or have a halftrack nearby.

The way I'd balance base building and lore accuracy is to let you pick out a full army before the match, but you only start with a few squads from that army. You can then spawn in the higher ranking units and more of the weaker ones by capturing and holding points or fulfilling other requisitions, like holding 3 or more points for 3 minutes or some inane shit like that. So you don't use resources you need to actually engage in combat to get access to better shit. You could have some light base building to support more than your spawning number of vehicles etc.

>>336348949
They do, but nobody sticks around to build bases any more complex than defensive fortifications at key points. IG? Sure. Orks? Sure. Hell even Nids build 'home bases'. I suppose even Eldar could count. But Space Marines come in via Thunderhawk/Stormraven/DropPod. Do the job, then get out again to do it elsewhere.

Remember that time the White Scars built bases on Prefectia which was under Tau control? Me neither.

I don't like base building because it turns the game into something economy-driven where you win/lose based on resource consumption strategies rather than unit tactics.

40k tabletop isn't about base building, it's about unit tactics.

DoW 2 had it the right way, they just fucked up a lot of other stuff, like balance.

And autistic force which builds defensive fortifications. If the Space Marines we play are IF, then I'm good with bases. But Space Marines don't build BASES TO TRAIN THEIR FORCES IN.

Re-read what I posted

Buildings in 40k tabletop don't produce units. They don't mine resources. They don't generate tech upgrades.

They are terrain pieces that are useful for enacting certain strategies/tactics, but you are still constrained to a certain size army with a certain number of points.

Base building doesn't belong in any 40k RTS. If you want that sort of thing, do it in a strategy layer like the total war games do. Tactics should focus on units and TACTICS, not fucking build orders and resource economy.
>>
>>336349671
That's only what you have? Rofl. I have 15k of Lizardmen. 5k of DE. 5k of Empire and 5k of Dorfs. "RIP WHFB". Yeah.. If only they had just their names changed. Oh look, everybody has rules and fluff just like they did in WHFB.... Empire, the completely unprotectable name is renamed "Free People of Azyrheim". Huh. Look at that.

I have only 10k of Chaos (somewhere from 2nd edition, lost that shit when I moved I think) and bout 4k of AdMech.

And how am I a cunt for telling you that's how it is? You're an anomaly even in the TTG. So you being proud of that shit is irrelevant to the discussion. Unless, of course, you're telling me the 49 or more people in this thread have the same amount as you do, or I do?

>>
>>336349754
That's, again, not my point. Yes they land via the landers, but it's still not how it's done. Space Marines, if they needed reinforcements in a battle, would get them smack bang on their position via Drop Pods, or the flyby of Assault Squads dropping out of a Thunderhawk, or squads rappelling from a Stormraven or whatever unique one they have (bar GK and BA hahahaha suck it) or via teleportation.

They don't land at a base then trundle along. Even tanks are dropped INTO THE ACTION via Thunderhawk.

I want (and don't even care if I get) to land a force and have a limited amount to call on to reinforce, job to do X or Y. Blow up X or Y. Kill X or Y. With the limited shit I have.

Not build a base and have to memorise build orders to get out of it. I want to be in the action, not managing a base.

I don't even HATE DoW1, I love it. DoW2 has lots of good bits to (cover, graphics, experience system, loot). I'd accept 'base building' if each faction was more unique.

But there is no way a Space Marine force can build shit to then get it in the way they do.

We're going by your retarded logic, after all. Dawn of War II has no basebuilding and smaller squad sizes than the first game, but still has more in common with the first game than a MOBA, yet according to you, Dawn of War II's gameplay is 'eerily similar' to a MOBA even though none of its game modes, core gameplay mechanics or map layouts are reminiscent of a standard MOBA game.

Wargame has no focus on basebuilding either, guess it's a MOBA!

Each unit/squad/special equipment is assigned a point value and points are used to determine how many points worth of models/gear you bring to the game. People can for example decide to play a 1000 point match and it's then up to the player does he want to bring a ton of weak units or few strong ones fully decked out in special equipment/abilities.

individual units had enough abilities that it was difficult to micromanage what you did have

increasing the unit count further would've just made it a micromanagement clusterfuck.

Same way as you have 10k of Lizardmen. By playing WHFB still. AoS isn't for me, friend. It's for kids. It's a gateway game. Also the term 'people' does not mean "everybody in this thread".

"the members of a particular nation, community, or ethnic group."

and that community is people who will drop games despite claiming to be fans, even before they're released. I don't need to point out Total War or Deathwing in the archives for you to know this.

I will openly admit that I am not a fan of Warhammer because it's extremley autistic and the company that owns it is a horrible joke. I like the Dawn of War games becuse they're fun games with a good self contained story.

On a side note, I have never met a Warhammer player who wasn't a complete sperglord.
