A single-player campaign for DC following the tale of one SM chapter's path to retribution. Oh, and there'll be some interesting stuff for you to play with along the way.
-----------------------------------------------------
UPDATE: Missions for this mod are now about 42% complete
- 5 models waiting to be textured/animated.
- 4 models still to be created. (I think lol)
- 4 AE/lua creations to be done.
- Voices to be recorded.

Estimated release date - Late October 2008 (hopefully!).
------------------------------------------------------
[Background]
You take control of the Deathbringers Space Marine Chapter (led by one Captain Mortisius), a chapter with a dark history of corruption and taint. Sent on a crusade along the Eastern Fringe to amend their failings, they are unexpectedly ordered to investigate disturbances of a dark nature in a remote region of space bordering Tau territory, and one planet in particular. The campaign follows their exploration of this sector, fending off rural Orks, Chaos insurgents and local Tau forces, heading towards an event that will force them to face their past demons and prove their worth.

The campaign wil add
- New SM troops.
- New Chaos troops.
- New character commanders; FC, Librarian, chapter master
- New Inquisitor.
- A new weapon for the force commander.
- Dreadnoughts with new selectable weapons.
- New Chaos Lord.
- New Daemon Prince.
- New Khorne Champion.
- New 'Gue’vesa’la' human-Tau warriors.
- 9 new and original maps/missions.
- More 'realistically' sized troops & vehicles.
- Honour Guard & Wargear awards with campaign progression.
- New soundtrack for in-game & menu.
- Loads of new cinematic sequences/movies.
- Destructable elements in the environment.
- New levels of player interaction in the story taking place.

UPDATE: Missions for this mod are now about 38% complete
- 10 models waiting to be textured/animated.
- 4 models still to be created. (I think lol)
- 5 AE/lua creations to be done.
- Voices to be recorded.

Currently I'm coding the 4th mission and mapping the 5th. Also adding the 'Death Reapers' for the space marine faction, a champion of jhorne for the Chaos faction and two character that appear in the campaign's story. Music tracks have been added for the first 3 missions and the 4th is being worked on. hopefully this mod will be ready for September, though that will be heavily reliant on us finding a dedicated texturer to 'colour-in' the new models that have been completed. that said, I see no problem in completing the alpha in time, possibly using place-holder models.

NOOO dude no offense but if i had to play online against people that can possess builder units, then i would never play this mod that is what ruined StarCraft Broodwar for me, i mean if i played terran or zerg the protoss would posses one of my builders then suddenly its 400 vs. 200

There's no mention anywhere about us making builders posses-able so it's a pointless discussion anyway.

hey you put a possession unit into it so you can possess enemy units

being able to possess say a chaos heretic and then being able to build up ya own chaos army would be awesome

we did wish to add a new greater daemon for Tzeentch, however we simply do not have the man power for it and the one that has been done in the past is not available to us.
however we will be using Bloodletters instead of horrors for Khorne.
