Cheat Codes

To activate cheats in Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War you must begin the game with the -dev command line parameter. More information on beginning a game with command line parameters can be found here .

Once the game has begun (using the -dev parameter) press CTRL + Shift + ~ to display the cheat console window. Then type in one of the below codes to activate the cheat's affect.

Note: For these codes to work you must have version 1.10 patch or higher installed. In version 1.3 many of the cheats do not work (the ones that do work will only work in Skirmish mode) and you must select "Allow Cheats" in the options.
