If you make the new textures very beautiful, with flowers and stuff, I'd be down. I have to look fabulous while I slaughter my enemies. :P

I must admit I was slightly irked lol. "Slightly irked" is "really fucking mad" in Canadian. That only happens when they lose a hockey game or when Quebec tries to break away. Trust me I know this, I've had maple syrup once and I'm currently sporting a beard. On a more serious n...

Re: Looking Tech-Marine Strategies Against IG

Vanilla Dread ruins ogryns and they have similar cost by the time ogryns are upgraded, not sure why he would try ogryn play unless he was really far ahead and bashed you. With SM Dread, FC hammer and shotgun scouts, ogryn play is just a no as there a huge resource dump. In T1 I find double tacs wit...

Re: Looking Tech-Marine Strategies Against IG

I saw the game you are talking about and suppression was the only way to go. I faced this guy the game before you. I tried to control the Ogryns with double Shotguns and the Thunderhammer which worked very well as the effect from the Flak Jacket wore off before he could do any real damage and after...

Looking Tech-Marine Strategies Against IG

I'm have a lot of trouble dealing with IG lately in Tier 1 and above. The Sentinel, 2 guardsmen, and melee commander has been kicking my ass first engagement. Setup teams are countered so easily with artillery spotters, going asms seems like a bad solution with the ogryns in tier 2. I don't know wha...

Re: canon?

Yep I agree lore doesn't really help that much except establish all the different units, weapons, and abilities in the game.

Re: canon?

Well the lore is made to enhance the table top game which is canon. The DoW computer games are based off the table top so in this case canon has a lot to do with. Isn't melta bombs a human weapon? Lore doesn't help to balance issues. And balance is the thing what this mod created for. Also, why did...

Re: Orbital

When the orbital indicator appears even if it misses any sane opponent will then do their best to move, so even if you miss the beams you still scare them into moving somewhere. So does every nuke, and the Basilisk Creeping Barrage. If that's all you do with a nuke it's not worth it. I think Orbita...

Re: Orbital

All those quotes are literally proving my point; Rocket Run/Tyranoformation are just fine because they fill a very valuable role for your late game army that can swing a game. I'm saying the Orbital can do the exact same service if it isn't placed like every other nuke. It's best used in army vs ar...

There's no reason to make such a drastic buff to the global. It has it's own uses in snaring an infantry army while your own forces get some extra damage as well as being able to destroy buildings/fortifications with precision. Judging by the general vibes I've gotten from this thread, why not buff...

You seem to have a very limited view of what constitutes balance.

One reason might be compensation for something lacking in the faction, or compensation for som...

What's the reasoning behind making GK terminators and paladins cost less to reinforce than SM/Chaos terminators? Why do GK Ops get to do so much dps with their shotguns plus get grenades and free invisibility? Not sure how much their grenades cost since there is no information on them in the codex. ...
