After a long break due to a breakdown of the original team, we are merging the Purgation of Kaurava and Firestorm over Kaurava modifications. This modification is the result of that merge and will STILL be Firestorm over Kaurava.
Melooo/yooo has been very generous in allowing the two modifications to merge and baz4431 has been heading the recent team reorganisation!
Expect more news as we progress; a Soulstorm version of the modification isn't that long away!

Today's news feature is bringing people up to speed on the Forces of Chaos in DoW40k: Firestorm over Kaurava!
The artwork, and a lot of the code behind it, comes directly from Melooo's efforts while involved with FoK and his own mod; Purgation of Kaurava. Squads gain visual upgrades as you unlock specific researches! What you see is here an Iron Warriors-themed force with not a lot of research unlocked!
Later on in the game, I chose the a siege-based Trait (Iron Warriors in all but name) over the Zealous Trait and my Chaos Lord and Chaos Marines changed to something more . . . Iron :) Conversely, the Zealous upgrade takes your Undivided force more in the direction of the Word Bearers . . . in all but name.
This allows you to create your own custom Chapters and warbands, but still get the great gameplay of the Traitor Legions of Chaos!
The current internal build is quite polished; Mirage Knight is doing excellent work behind the scenes. Our aim is to get it as refined as we can through internal testing, as the game mechanics aren't solid yet.
Check out our Images gallery for some previews! More screenshots to come when I get time!
Iron Within, Iron Without!

For those of you having trouble installing the manual version/prefer .exes
This is a collection of maps you can use with FoK's 3.5 release. Enjoy!
Its finally here and on moddb! Download FoK 3.5 now! Just drag and drop this to your main DC folder and get into the action!
The XV8 Crisis Battle suits in this mod have been using the wrong models for their weapons for a very long time now, I tried commenting on your ModDB page, I tried posting threads on your forums, and I tried contacting your developers about it... it's driving me nuts.
How they look now is not how the miniatures look, they don't look like the tabletop miniatures, I beg of you, please reverse/change the weapon models on the XV8 battle suits(not the XV89 Leaders, but the XV8 crisis team models) and make a proper Plasma Rifle model too on them, and I shall donate my money to your cause.
Thank you.
Here's my post on your forum: Fok.dow-mods.com
The last post on that thread by 'Mastodon'.
Model choice is a subjective choice by the artist or mod team when they consider something looking better than previously.
If this is a bug, you're actually going to need to provide screenshots. However, I doubt it is a bug.
It's not a bug, I just thought since the whole concept of the mod is to make it closer to codex it would also make the models closer to how the miniatures look like on the actual models, in arts and other official pieces, but I guess not.
I'll take some screenshots how they look now and how I think they should look...
