CHANGELOG
- MAJOR ART REWORK. Brother Kekoulis updated the WHOLE race, and I helped a bit with the textures. All models are now fixed, anims rectified and updated where necessary. All now use high quality textures.
Guys, this may be an one-line change, but WE ARE TALKING ABOUT A WHOLE-RACE ART UPDATE!
- NEW UNIT ADDED: The Dark Talon flyer, for the Ravenwing, created by brother Kekoulis! I helped a bit with the main weapon FX.
- Deathwing building model updated: We now use the new model created by brother Fedor_Russia!
- SCaR Major update: Commander Swap code re-written. Perfected. You will notice an IMMEDIATE swap, and if your commander is attached, he will REMAIN attached! I managed to squeeze a bit more optimisation as well :)
- Cypher model updates (thanks brother Kekoulis!)
- The Ravenwing Techmarine now got a special, new voice set! (thanks brother Thud!)
- Dreadnought models plasma canons messed up textures fixed. Brother Kekoulis added a NEW, BETTER weapon model!
- Tacticals got THREE weapon upgrades (it was 2), and a Melta Gun additional weapon upgrade. Their Missile Launchers get now available ONLY in Battle Company Branch.
- DW Terminator Squads had too many members. And the branch was OP. Assault and Ranged members loadout reduced by 2. Ranged weapons increased from 2 to 3.
- And many more tiny fixes here and there (including UCS ones), that I always forget to mention.

I'm in love with the new models! awesome job, as usual!
The Dark Talon was an unexpected, but pleasant gift. It just came out of nowhere in true Dark Angels fashion. The new models and textures are stunning, especially Cypher.
Do not tell anyone,but it has a Nephilim configuration as well.
However,the proper Nephilim Jetfighter shall be used somewhere else. ;)
Lord Cypher is my favourite.
Thanks guys!
We tried our best to "upgrade" the 3D of the WHOLE mod, and still add one more unit (the Dark Talon), to please those that waited.
Everything, thanks to brother Kekoulis, of course. :) HE IS THE 3D/ANIM MACHINE, behind this release.
And do not forget brother Thudo! His new voice sets are awesome and complete - and he even had anticipated the arrival of the Dark Talon, and pre-emptively created the voices!
By the way, I think Dark Angels mod is more balance now. So I guess "we are there", at last!
What follows, is the IDH and then the WH releases!
There, the differences, fixes and additions are EVEN BIGGER!
Good work guys!
TOLD YA!!!
ALWAYS TRUST THE SLAANESHI BOI!!!
Cosmocrat
Thanks brother Cosmo!
Noice work yo.
Thanks man!!!
And the IDH upload is also awesome and the same is true for the upcoming (this weekend) Witch Hunters mod. They are all very high quality releases.
