Necron attack scarabs burrow deburrow ability has pink icon

Update: there's a global limit on Necron PGs - 24 per any number of Monoliths. Is that supposed to be so?

Apparently. There's a required_structure_ratio requirement of 12 per Monolith and a required_cap requirement of 24 on the generators. So yeah, it seems as if that's deliberate. You can only get 12 generators per Monolith and only 24 generators in total. Perhaps it's to encourage people to build Thermo Plasma Generators and Heavy Thermo Plasma Generators and/or to stop the Necrons power rate from climbing so high at a fast rate?

Chucks, obvioulsy this new version is landing when I'm not at home for few days

From changelog, this seem to be 24 max. Sounds good to me. I rarely need to build more than that. Even AI do not build so much anyway (or not more for sure) ^^. The critical thing is : Do Necrons are building on deposit slag now. Because, maybe it's just me , it seems that until you build on them, energy rate is somewhat slowed down in comparison of map where there isn't any. It is concerning every race by the way but as Necrons are only dependent of this resource...and on top of that how the increased economy researches power cost will affect overall Necrons gameplay. Maybe hard time are back. Can't wait sunday to test this ^^

SoB command squad has two pink wargear researches. They are the second and third from the right side.

???

Scarabs aren't supposed to burrow and deburrow. Will be rectified.

It is correct that there is only 24 generators in general. Sorry for confusion.

Space Marine Whirlwind MKII

When switching from an attack ground command to something within their reach, to something out of their usual range, they will move but continue firing missiles in all directions.

Creates a pretty fancy show - Here is a pretty Picture of them going insane

I like that picture a lot. xD

tau superweapon construction icons is blinking and is unable to finish

Maybe I should remove the limit and allow auto construction upon right click... thing is, it will not allow 2 superweapons to be fired, even if you built two "construct superweapons". But who knows, I could be wrong. xD

IG ''we are the imperial guard!'' ability dont make baneblades free

I also have some Problems with the Tau Superweapon. when i construct superweapon there is no superweapon to use

BlessedOne wrote: IG ''we are the imperial guard!'' ability dont make baneblades free

I guess that the mod team (I can't remember who) said that free baneblade effect would be remove from this ability, I'm not sure of this. But if this is true I think that the other effect of this ability need to be buffed because take a while of cooldown and the enemy not retreat or run desperately for here life or another super cool effect.

Whaahhhh! heh heh The game starts off with PINK strategic points, what do i have to do - reinstall it or wait for a patch?

The animation when the field lieutenant kill in melee is bugged, instead of doing the animation he stands with the banner like if he was going to capture a point.

Ok, the PINK strategic points has been solved...I re-installed the latest patch by unzipping it properly with 7zip. Now there are strategic points, looks good.

TAU: I'm experiencing a strange bug with Skyray missile barrage. They steal use it automatically after the first use. They do this until I make them move somewhere else.

Lots of apparent Skyray Gunship problems. Me likes what I'm about to fix. Skyrays are automatically equipped with missile launchers (lower belly) while Hammerheads are equipped with non missile launchers (lower belly). I can do this for Skyrays, but not Hammerheads. As DOW does not have a thing for complex and non complex upgrade categories. xD

@Deuce: reinstall your objective points mod. Make sure you read the FAQ for more information.

And free Baneblade thing was removed intentionally for more global enemy morale damage. So it is like a "fear us!" ability. Which will be reworked for DODA only.

Yes, I know that read about this change in the ability somewhere in the forum. I think that is a good idea, because really prefer an ability can help me in a moment that can change the way of the battle. Greetings

Necrons are not going to t3 on 1.73.71!

He might be right...I'm not completely sure but so far I haven't seen any titan other than Awakened and Siege monoliths. If there is any race that don't wait for ages to produce their most powerful units, it's definitely them (and in a lesser extent, Nids). So I think it should be double checked by The Team

Edit: It is working.

Eldar prism on/off ability is bugged. When you turn it on it cant be turned off even if it shows that its turned off

Necrons: After many skirmish playing as and with them (4p, 6p, 8p maps) , there is something wrong.
I play Harder difficulty however I often have a bigger resource score than some of them at the end. It should not happen.
There is always at least one Necron AI which is teching right but do not produce titans and sometimes do not even build sterilization obelisks either. Usually that's the one(s) with the lowest military score (kill AND Loss).

They still don't build on deposit slag...

Immortals are (still) often not targeting units that are in their reach until I order them to AIM one.

Edit: I've added 'still' because I already reported those issues before and are not related to this specific version of the mod. Example I reported the Immortals problem since 1.73.4.

Yes, yes, yes, Necron AI is broken and won't be fixed until RHB...
