If you are playing a defensive late game style Solaria is excellent when backed up with plenty of whirlwinds, as they do about twice as much damage with their extra fire damage. Solaria is a scary mobile fire platform with here overheat ability increasing her damage as she fires. Her missile pack can wipe out whole armies if used right. She can put out the most consistent high damage of any of the titans. Imperial Knight Solaria is the most expensive elite unit available and for good reason. Can be very powerful if used correctly but is very poor late game if not used correctly. However in both cases if requires good timing and position from your own troops. This skill seems most useful when trying to trap escaping forces or shield your own forces for a retreat. His stonewall ability is very nice, because although you protect yourself you also cannot shoot out of the bubble. Being so cheap he does not really hamper any late game development of more expensive elites either.
The lightning bolt and the aoe damage buffs are both very good and useful early game. He doesn’t do enough damage late game to take and provides very little utilitiy.Ĭhief Librarian Jonah Orion is an interesting pick as he has some really nice buffs. The problem with all melee space marines is that there never seems to be enough of them and this is the same with Angelos. His simple abilities make him easy to play but as with any character with activated abilities he gets lost in larger fights. Gabriel Angelos is a solid early game pickup and can pretty much face tank anything before tier 3. They don’t really bring much outside these two abilities and are less good once you have the doctrine unlocked. They can be useful late game too as other elites can be spawned around them, allowing you to support a teammate in an attack with a surprise Imperial Knight spawn. Kill Team Ironmaw is a good early game pickup as they are better than a marine squad and can cheaply be upgraded to kill essentially anything in tier 1. It is also fairly slow making it a much more deliberate weapon. 1v1 the venerable dreadnought should beat any other vehicle but in large scale fights can become a bit lost.
The overcharged shot does lots of damage if aimed correctly and the plasma cannon does very good damage to tanks. If you prefer plenty of plasma in your army then the Venerable Dreadnought is good until you unlock his ability as a doctrine. Space Marines have a lot of excellent elite choices to choose from and it really depends on your play style. Of course I had to include an arbitrary rating list too but this is based on my own experience with the units and against them. I do not pretend to be the authority on DoW3 but for the most part it makes sense.
A quick run through of each elite in the game highlighting some good and bad points for players.
