We are nearing a release for v0.9!

Chaos for the most part are fully implemented. Aside from balance testing with their units, what's left is to polish some of the existing content and write a full tooltip ucs file for IG as to communicate all the new changes. Some of the major changes to Chaos are:

  • Horrors are no longer an anti-vehicle squad. Their Coruscating Flames are geared more towards infantry now.
  • Hell Talon Incendiary Bomb weapon has been removed. Eventually the Hell Talon will have three varying bombing abilities found in their 8th edition rules. The Biotoxin Bomb effects will be later passed on to Plague Marine blight grenades. Autocannon and Lascannon weapons can be utilized at the same time.
  • Chaos Marines can no longer be infiltrated. They are on par with Space Marines and no longer need to rely on infiltration.
  • Chaos Lord has a Power Sword as a starting weapon. This is to guarantee that his Accursed Crozius (currently using AP and Strength of a Thunder Hammer as placeholder due to the AC being really weak in 8th edition) has more damage output in comparison.
  • Raptors have the Fearsome Visage which diminishes morale over time from every Raptor in the squad.

After a release, I'll be including two factions for every update till 1.0. Orks and Eldar will be next.

Good news sir. I have some questions:

  • Will you add Scythe for Chaos Lord?
  • Would it be possible to spawn randomized Chaos Lord, I mean different models, like if he dies, you create him and Chaos Lord from Dawn of War 1 pops out, or from Dark Crusade?
  • Will you add some race-specific music from Dawn of War 2, for example for Chaos; Hymn Of The Black Legion or Vindication?
  • You mentioned Plague Marines, does that mean they will be added in the future?
  • I don't understand last bit completely, do Raptors lose morale or they cause morale damage to enemies, more raptors equals more morale damage?
