Re: mods, Ultimate Apocalypse is the (understandably) hyped up one, but there are also some high quality race mods around. I'd say Witch Hunters, Steel Legion and Thousand Sons are the most impressively polished, but there's also an interesting, pre-codex AdMech one, and the Tyranids are kind of janky but cool.

Gothsheep posted:So when you get to the later games, what is your stance on mods going to be? I know there are a couple really good ones for Soulstorm and Dark Crusade. Soulstorm has Ultimate Apocalypse, which is a massive overhaul that adds tons of new units and functionality to all the factions, plus entirely new factions, but only works in multiplayer or skirmish. Titanium Wars is also available for SS, though it seems you have to join a Discord to get it due to some sort of Moddb drama. There's also Redux, which seems to be a graphical remaster kind of deal.

IMJack posted:I still wish for a proper Inquisition RPG, something more along the lines of Deus Ex or VtM Bloodlines rather than the Diablo-esque game that is Martyr. Isn't that what Streum On are doing next? On the one hand, Deathwing was a disappointment, on the other, EYE is pretty much that already.

DOW1 wasn't the first time an RTS featured buildable super units (that might have been TA?) but it was probably the first time they were truly impressive to watch.

Lord_Magmar posted:Still sucks that Dawn of War 2 made the super unit for the Tyranids the Swarmlord. Which I kind of get, but completely ruins the whole point of the Swarmlord. I don't know much from Tyranids, what's wrong with the Swarmlord? Not sure what else 'Nids could have gotten without going into Biotitan scale...

Cradok posted:Sindri is Scott McNeill doing a kind of evil version of Beast Wars Silverbolt. And Lord Bale is McNeill doing his Dinobot voice pretty straight, including the snarls.So any time you see Sindri and Bale arguing with each other, that's just McNeill doing what he does best, arguing with himself. And another one where people would rather pretend the last game in the series never happened.

So is there ever any explanation for why the Imperium originally settled all of these awful, awful planets like Catachan or Armaggedon in the first place?

So I guess there's some kind of impenetrable DOW mod drama going on now? Looks like there was a schism within the Ultimate Apocalypse team and now Unification's the hot new thing. The stakes have never been lower. Mordja fucked around with this message at 15:42 on Feb 3, 2021 |

Oh I like UA but trying to play it any kind of PVP seems like an excercise in lunacy. For compstomps it pretty much doesn't matter if one team's ultimately weaker than another when you can tech up and spam superheavy tanks & Titans that the AI can't deal with.

That big Unification mod is out. One of the few to support/change the campaign, so that *might* be interesting to take a look at when you get to Soulstorm.

Yeah, was just linking in case you wanted to check it out seperately. I *believe* the plan for AdMech is to eventually bring them in line with their actual TT range tho.

True to its name, Unification is a collection of different race packs that has only recently gotten further development to properly flesh out said races, after the devs left UA. I know they've said they plan to bring Admech up to date with their actual codex depiction, though that'd be a pretty big undertaking.

TheLastRoboKy posted:Tempting as it is to try to mess around and make the experience different/enjoyable I think it's best to show Soulstorm's campaign for what it is in its vanilla form, taking the good with the bad, then maybe do some goofing around with Unification's various factions afterwards, and maybe the Ultimate Apocalypse Mod too. You can say a lot about Soulstorm but just one look at moddb shows you just how still dedicated its modding scene is on some absolutely massive projects.

Ludicrous Soustorm Megamod Unification just released its latest, adding Krieg and Death Guard alongside a bunch of new stuff for the other races. Krieg has blimps. https://www.moddb.com/mods/unification-mod-dawn-of-war-soulstorm

Unification report: Krieg is a lot of fun. They have several unique mechanics, for example their bunkers can suppress infantry, making them play kinda like a CoH faction, when their morale breaks they go berserk and can't be controlled, a lot of their units can use mustard gas. Their Rough Riders can affix explosive lances and absolutely ruin vehicles on a charge and one of their Titans is a giant zeppelin.
