I want the battle of the imperial palast, well the map just have to be the size of europe

I totally got the urge to make a W40K styled palace map in UDK.

It would be cool if when becoming a "Hero" for the Imperial Guard you turn into a space marine

Similarly, for the Orks you could become a big nob or the warboss.

For a space marine it seems like they'd have to plaster vehicle armor onto a walking unit since their armor is like tank armor. Not sure whether or not something like that is easily doable.

As I said before, Space Marines are not the focus of this mod. At this point, I can't say that they will be in, nor can I say that they won't be in. They're just not the focus.

Concerning both Space Marines and Ork warbosses/nobs, there's going to be some scaling-related fluff to look into, so that's best left alone for the time being.

Why not Tau

Why not Tau

Well there's likely no scaling issues to be had with Tau, but as I said, our focus is going to be the Steel Legion and Orks for this particular mod.

Anything about the environment that's been more fleshed out yet? Like what epoch, any special crusade or part of the Imperium you want to focus on?

I can answer as he's had to tell me twice already, heh. This mod takes place on Armageddon. I believe during the 3rd war, but I could be wrong about that part.

I think I might as well pop in and say that fairly soon we'll finally have a couple of little things to show you. :IS2:

 

[Derpus]

You added Squats? Kidding, can't wait to see though.

 

[Wulffrik]

This mod will be every 40k fan's dream come true.

 

[Sgt. Spoon]

God I would love if this mod made it out, would be really interesting with the RO2:s features

 

[Deadsmile]

Can't wait to fight in the trench with a Flashlight

Oh, we certainly will. However, I believe that the best course of action is to get a few steps forward in this thread before we show ourselves off in the rest of the interwebs.

I feel like space marines would not make much sense, and would be hard to kill compared to IG. I'd guess Orks hero status = Nobs, no idea what IG could get.

Heroes don't have to change form, there's lots of special weapons IG heroes could have. Hellguns, meltas...

Hero Orkz could get Red shoes XD

Or become a commissar.

Then they just need a Scout-pattern Salamander with a pintle-mounted heavy bolter and a Valhallan Guardsman with a melta and you've got yourself a Hero of the Imperium.

There could always be the option that on some maps Imperial side gets a 5-man tactical Marine squad instead of a Leman Russ, after all a space marine is like a walking tank.
