Astartes Primaris Final release file

Install the mod into your main Dow II retribution folder.

Last stand and campaign does not work with this mod. UCS files may conflict between Elite, Codex and Astartes mods, if you want to use both you'll need to move ucs files for each mod and add them whenever you play them to Gameassets/Locale/English.

This is the Final Primaris marine containing release, and so far the finished variant of the mod. Other two variants will be an Oldhammer variant and a variant with no unit limits for IronGaming.

Step 1: Set your textures and models in game to highest, though setting it to the maximum graphical settings is recommended.
Step 2: Unzip the mod into your Retribution main folder. If installed correctly, Retribution main folder should have Folder Astartes, Astartes.module and 2 Astartes.bat files. One of the bat is for Steam, the other starts the game directly.
Check the Performance_Stability_Mod folder, read the readmes and apply crashfix from there. Make a backup of effected files from dow2 main folder first. D3D9.dll requires a good graphics card to use, not recommended for older pcs and laptops.

Recommended that you set the framerate to 58 and do not run youtube or media players like it or windows media player in the background, as that can trigger a non-mod related crash bug.

Superheavy and Horus Heresy tanks edition, limits lessened on some elites. Fellblade, Falchion, Glaive, Spartans, Typhons, Cerberuses, Scorpions, Lynxes, Cobras and Voidspinners, as well as IG artillery and even rarer Heresy Era tanks stand ready to do even bigger battles than before.

Readme file included with Credits and instructions. Run either with Astartes.bat, or go to your Steam, go to Retribution, go to Properties, set launch options as "-modname Astartes" ,without the ""s. If this does not work use the Astartes exe.bat .

I recommend setting graphics to Ultra high before installing or mod may crash on space marines.

Races , tactics, and units: Space marines and Imperial Guard heroes all have a separate race attached.
Check Tutorials on this page for guide to where to find new units and how to use the races.

Chapter commander is Adeptus Astartes, unlocking the contemporary 40k Space marines. Legion commander is Legiones Astartes, unlocking the 30k era late Great Crusade Space marines. Grey Knights commander is Daemonhunters, unlocking the Grey Knights.
IG heroes are the same: Cadian commander unlocks the standard IG. Krieg commander unlocks the Krieg IG. Not suppressible, but fire slower if more powefully with their lasguns.
Tau commander: Tau race, similar a bit to IG. Very weak in melee, but good at range due to all of its weapons being plasma or melta.
