I'm stoked at the implication that there's a campaign extension where you play as SM.

nnnotime posted:Unfortunately, in the official forums Tindalos indicated there is no additional campaign in the SM DLC. I guess they didn't realize their SM trailer could appear misleading if they added storyline elements to it.  But at least Imperial Fists are in. Fists, Smurfs, Blood Angels, Space Wolves and Dark Angels. I'm hoping they add some more campaign in with a future DLC if not this one. Adding a massive Tau force like they will I can't imagine they wouldn't toss in something for the next single player DLC. I must bring the Emperor's light to more foul Xenos.

I'm hoping the teasing about nids is hinting at a dlc campaign involving them

Ravensburg (the lead developer) mentioned something along the line that this is not the last we see of Spire, so maybe another campaign is in the work.

I figured as its obvious they loved making this game. Seriously hope this game gets enough word of mouth to make it fairly successful. Total War and this game brought back my love for GW lore hard.

Thought I'd get into this again after leaving it for a while. First match: My brand new chaos fleet of 2x hellbringers and 4x iconoclast vs an eldar player. Smug gently caress brings a loving void stalker and a single nightshade. Come the gently caress on, Tindalos. Some match balancing beyond just a points score is badly loving needed.

Pretty sure that its only ever going to be points level, and MAYBE your admirals level, in keeping with how close they are sticking to TT. In TT any 300 pt fleet should have been able to take any other 300 pt fleet. You know, if TT was in any way balanced.

In TT any 300 pt fleet should have been able to take any other 300 pt fleet. The main weird thing that throws a wrench into this is that for some reason they've adjusted the points costs for bigger ships downwards from the TT equivalents. In TT, a battleship usually costs something in the neighbourhood of 350+ points. You can generally get three light cruisers for that, or two line cruisers if you squeeze a bit. Meanwhile in Armada, Battleships cost only some 250-odd points, meaning you can only bring 2 light cruisers or 1.5 line cruisers instead.

I thought the main that that fucks that up for matchmaking was ship skills, since those don't affect ship costs.

Upgrades don't cost anything either, which is kind of insane - and they did increase costs in TT.

Bigger ships = more skills and more renown cost per skill.

I get that they don't want crazy zzaps on every ork ship, but at this point they really need crazy zzaps on every ork ship just to keep pace with other races.

Goddamn, the "More infos" in main menu is ugly. ---Edit--- So, are the different space marine chapters just a flavor thing? Messed around with level 1 skirmish admirals and I don't see any differences... Xarn fucked around with this message at 18:00 on Jun 21, 2016 |

Wathcing someone stream SM. Looks like SM vs SM is going to be a slow thing since they are so armoured. Edit: Yeah further ORK nerfs are going to make them basically unplayable unless you resort to really cheap (but easily counterable) tactics, like tractor spam.

SM can get homing boarding torpedoes, outdoing orks at their own game.

Man I can't wait to play SM. It sounds like they're completely my poo poo. I love brawlers in this game. So the rock is playable? I'm assuming only for the DA? There other uniques for the other chapters? I can't really dig up a buncha videos until I get some down time this evening.
