no...it means more focus strategy and less focus on a build order

Been playing this for the last couple of days, and its bloody awesome. I cant believe everyone is complaining about the lack of base building. Contrary to what it seems this game is far more strategic than the original DOW imo, except the strategy is all about the fights, terrain abilities and units you field.

I consider this an evolution of the rts series and it cuts out the tedium of base building. Satrcraft 2?? yawn. this is my game
