Dawn of War is the new game that was made by Warhammer 40,000K. I was wondering, does anyone here think that it is moddable? I was going to make a World War 2 RTS mod with the Warcraft 3 engine (mod profile link in my sig), but then I saw this game. Its PERFECT for what I need. But I heard it doesn't even have a map editor... Does anyone think that this game can be moddable?

Do you know if there is a Map Editor or anything for it? It seems like it would be hard to mod...

I think they were going to include a map editor, they were supporting th emod community. DoW ought to be brilliant!

DoW was always fun...at least when I was playing the beta.

The game code is made in the Lua programming language, so I'm guessing it is moddable in that area, which would most likely include changing models/sounds etc. Maybe email the developer?

I looked at the forums, and this mod is certainly moddable :D They are going to release mod tools soon!

We need an "All is Quiet on the Western Front mod" for DoW..that would be nifty.

The movie and the novel were also nifty.

I said it was moddable, basically. That's why I posted the link to the game page on Moddb :P

It looks pretty cool. I'll have to try the demo soon :)

"All is Quiet on the Western Front" was a great movie! It freaked me out at the end when that guy died while he was reading that letter.... it sent a chill down my spine :( Did I just ruin the movie for you guys? lol. Yes, it definitely needs a mod :D

Are we talking about the same movie? I'm talkin about the black and white....

The guy died when he was reaching for the butterfly out of the trench and the British sniper capped him.

Oh, well, it was around that time that he was also reading a letter. Maybe it was after he finished reading it :P
