Dawn of War: Soulstorm Demo Released
Dawn of War: Soulstorm adds two new races to the mix, the Dark Eldar and the Sisters of Battle, for a total of nine playable factions. Aerial units have also bolstered the armies of all races, with the exception of the robot-like Necron.
All nine races will be enabled for play in the campaign mode, but only those who own the previous titles in the series will have access to the full selection during multiplayer sessions.
The expansion is currently set for a March 7 release on PC.

Are those screenshots seriously square and not widescreen?

Just in case anyone still cares. I tried it out and widescreen is not supported properly yet. It was hard to tell if it was just stretched and my camera was off by a bit, or if the vertical actually was shorter.
Here's the raw data incase you want to make your own opinion.
Computer 1 1600x1200
Computer 2 1440x900 (wide)
I performed the following:
1. Reset the camera.
2. Selected a unit and double clicked it's portait to center.
3. Zoomed in all the way.
The UI covered the same percentage of the screen, and I could see some evidence of squares turning into rectangles.
I could see EXACTLY the same East West of the unit on both monitors. One leg was exactly aligned with the edge of the screen.
On the North South however, I could see a tiny bit higher up on the units arm on the 4:3 monitor.
That means it's either a normal 'stretch' and I had my camera off by a bit, or they cut off the top to make it wide. Eitherway that's not what people are wanting. (just as 2k)
