Closer to Fluff 40k - A SS: Legion Submod for Dawn of War

[SS] Closer to Fluff 40k - A SS: Legions Sub-Mod

Please head to HERE for new mod thread. New version of mod found here.

OUTDATED Version = Mediafire.com

Hey all, you may (or most likely may not) remember me from my aborted [DC] Downsized Legions mod.

I bit off way more than I could chew, but fear not! I have learned my lesson.

So for this new venture, I gained permission from gerberman to create a mod using his as the base.

DESCRIPTION:
The Closer to Fluff mod does as it says on the tin, brings the game 'closer to fluff'. Note: All warnings are in regards to PvP play. AI is glitchy at the moment, making the IG and DE easily defeated. Any feedback on your experiences against each race is much appreciated!

-Space Marines are hard as hell to kill; one marine can easily take on a squad from another race...then another...but eventually, even a marine's vaunted prowess fails against the tide. All marine squads have been reduced to a lone marine and other tidbits. Your marines are easily capable of going toe-to-toe with almost all enemies; but alone they will die. Their greatest advantage is the various wargear they bring to the field, combined with teaming them up with other marines. Diversity is King

-Necrons are very, very close to how they are in the stories/fluff, so bring lots of guns and vehicles and...well, bring everything to the fight. They also tend to get back up more often...and all ranged attacks do armor-piercing...and...well, you get the idea.

-Imperial Guard is all about superior numbers and mechanized assaults. If you can't swamp your enemy with guardsmen, then shove a baneblade and a few Russ down their throats. All infantry, commanders included, are very delicate compared to all races. Do NOT let them entrench! Get in and slaughter them as fast as possible because once they dig in and their Resource Economy really takes off, you are screwed.
-New feature: Imperial General has TACTICAL GENIUS!! For 1600R & 1600P, you can instantly add a Baneblade that can be deepstriked into any area visible. Only one Tactical Genius Banelade is able to be summoned!!

-Eldar are fleet-footed, tricksy lil bastards. They're not as fragile as a guardsman, but they certaintly can't take on a marine head on without some sort of advantage. And they bring plenty of advantages, making it hard taking them down by just rushing in. To Defeat them...Bring your Detectors and DO NOT let them lock all your units in melee. Also, Use AOE abilities to take the elves out because damn do I get swamped every match...

-Sisters of Battle are mostly unchanged, other than some reduced troop loadouts and such, but they still can take on most races with the right strategy.

-Tau...damn xenos' infantry are fragile, not as much as the IG, but their ranged attacks are devastating; beware the rain of plasma! Be warned; DO NOT let them keep you at range. Make use of fast attack units and jumpers to get in close to remove their ranged advantage.

-Chaos was adjusted similarly to Space Marines and the IG. Scary to fight once they really set up base, but can be defeated...barely.

-Dark Eldar still need adjusting!! Currently unplayable until I finish researching them.

-Orkz are the toughest opponents in the game so far. They (Using standard AI) are capable of beating every race if you aren't careful. Strategies to defeat them vary. One hint: They're Orkz.

Soon to come:
- Inquisition - Ordo Xenos, Ordo Malleus and Ordo Hereticus
- SM Chapter Researches - Become even Fluffier!!

Actual Changelist: (Everything I can remember editing) as of 8/27/2014
-All vehicles have 50%-100% more armor
--Even the damned Tau mechs
-Lasgun damage reduced
-SM, Necron and some Chaos weaponry damage doubled
-SM squads reduced to single units (Sergeants are currently not part of game, but will return soon!)
--Same for Chaos Marines
--SM, Necron, Ork and Chaos Marine health/armor doubled/slightly increased
-IG and Tau health/armor drastically reduced
-Changed size of Chaos and Space Marine units and vehicles to more lore/fluff sizes
-Gave several units across factions more lore/fluff descriptions
-Added some extra units to Tau and Necrons for more fluffiness

Some other stuff I do not recall...

Known Issues:
-Space Marine AI opponents somehow get enormous Vanguard Squads. Have no freaking clue how, since I removed multi-entity squads from the race. Currently trying to figure this shit out...
-Some descriptions for units use lore/codex, some do not. Currently working on that
