Warhammer 40,000 Dawn of War - Cheats
CHaos Orks and Space Marines, fog of war and tech tiers
Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War is the PC version of the highly addictive Warhammer card game series and over the course of the past years, it has gained enough notoriety to move the concept even further, to the online realms. If you want to get familiar with the wars between the Orks and the Space marines, if you need to know how the Imperial Guards rose to power, then by all means, this is the game to help you do it. Be advised though that the listed cheats don't seem to work with patch 1.3 and higher. Not in their entirety, as they only work in the skirmish games and you must previously check the "allow cheats" box in the options. Cheat ListTo use cheats, hold CTRL + SHIFT and then press the tilde key ~ during gameplay to reveal the command console. These cheats require version 1.10 or higher to work. Type in the appropriate code in order to get the desired effect: cheat_revealall - reveal all FOW cheat_killself - kill yourself cheat_power # - give yourself # units of power cheat_requisition # - give yourself # units of requisition Developer commandsDevelopers had their specific tools too. Here's a list.

Adjust # to whatever mission you want, bearing in mind that the maximum is 11, and both numbers must be the same.
