It is the 41st Millennium in Sub-Sector Aurelia, a cluster of worlds on the edge of the Galaxy, and a battle of epic proportions is about to begin. Ancient races will clash across the planets that dot this section of space, battling for the greatest of stakes - not only the claim to the land and its bounty, but the fate of each race.
I feel that DoW II strays too far away from what it needs to represent. I am an ex-tabletop player, and a pretty big fan of WH40k. I feel they have left out or incorrectly used so much of the content in DoW II that I don’t feel like it accurately represents the franchise in the way it should. What I hope to do is bring many of the inconsistencies (where possible) closer to the tabletop, while keeping the current balance of the game as intact as possible.
Does this make the game turn-based?
No. What it does do is change squad sizes, upgrades, etc.
I wanted to add the change log to the description, but there wasn't room.
There is a change log (.txt) and a more detailed change log (.doc) in the download.
I really like this mod, especially for Orks and Tyranids. There's nothing quite like the 10 man Boy squads and the 12 man hormagaunt squads.
I hope you make further versions of this because in many ways it's better then the original squad limits.
I'll certainly be updating it on a regular basis.
There's alot more content I want to add, but I need to figure out 'how' to implement some if it, if its possible at all.
I'm also looking for feedback & suggestions on what I've done already. I intend to do regular balance changes every week as needed.
make a mod that adds more units eg the space marine attak bike or more tanks or something
Unfortunately Relic have made it impossible to add new models into the game, so this can not be done. :(
They just made the model importer :D
does it increase pop cap
Doubles it to 200.
Updated to 1.3b
Enjoy :)
Added .exe file so you can add it to your STEAM game list.
just played this mod and ive really enjoyed it, i do have a few issues with it though i find that sometimes the computer will somehow get stuck together and more and more units will add to it so that there is a huge mass of troops hanging around in the corner. happens most in argus map! other than that its a great mod, keep up the good work!
The AI tends to play retarded on easy or normal difficulty.
Play the AI on Expert, and they are worth playing against (for the most part).
Still... join the STEAM group and play against other players. That's what its made for. ;)
could you have it on something other than .rar if that is possible?
I'll make it a zip next time.
Although .rar is pretty common these days.
Thanks, the reason I asked was 'cos I don't have the thing to extract it thing......thingy.
1.4b finished and uploaded, pending approval.
Now in .zip format Calgar. :)
thanks man, really appreciate it
every time i try yo open the folder it says that it is invalid. what does it mean?
presise message:
"The Compressed (zipped) Folder 'G:\Game Folders\Steam\tabletopmod-1.4b.zip' is invalid."
Someone else had a similar problem.
I don't think the .rar resaved as a .zip properly.
I've reuploaded a fixed .zip file, in the mean time, feel free to check the thread on Relic News, as I uploaded it to another location.
could you post the link please?
are you working on the next version? and what will it include?
does it edit eldar
yes it does
I am REALLY impressed, i just glanced over the space marine part ingame andlooks nice.
I still miss 10 man tac squad though. ;) And perhabs 2 special weapons? :) Hope to se more of this mod, good work!
this is dead, look at the relic news page: Forums.relicnews.com
Hi, i was rather dissapointed with this mod, although the upgrades are fine and all thatr, there is, on most buttons, the words '$90475 no range' or something like that, this also shows up on my normal dawn of war 2 game, so it obscures upgrades etc. so i cant tell what they do
does this also work with Chaos Rising? :)
