I had some big questions about future units! I was wondering if you will be adding some other awesome units for space marines, I honestly feel like space marines and imperium could have a lot more cool stuff added. (though arguably, Imperator Titan is the end-all)

1. Space marine Centurion battlesuit- Siege and Devastator versions! Those suits are so fokin cool! They are, in a way, like Obliterators for the loyalist cahpters. They may not be as powerful as dreadnoughts but supposedly they should have the firepower of a tank and withstand an equal amount of punishment, and they look so damn badass too.

2. Deathwatch! Called in as a kill-team, they excel at fighting all kinds of xenos, especially the veterans and the rare Deathwatch Dreadnoughts. Or, they could be added with the Inquisition, depends. I feel the inquisition is kinda OP, so that would be unbalanced, but it does make sense for them to have these.

3. Imperial robots! Yeah, the large mechs without anyone actually operating them from inside. They could be either used by the imperium as siege/heavy assault weapons, or by space marines, Horus once used them during his siege of the Imp. palace.

4. Also Imperial Knights! Of course, what with the DoW 3, I think those should be somehow added in as well, whether summoned to fight for the imperial forces or space marines. They could be fast like Warhounds, but with better melee capability and wider array of weaponry, with possible upgrades for fighting huge demons for example.

5. Eversor and other types of assassins! I really liked the Eversor assassin from the Firestorm over Kronus mod (I think he was there) and for normal units he was an unkillable monster, just like they should be!

6. And for Chaos, I'd love to see the massive engines of Dark Mechanicus, no matter what, all of them are awesome (but I think that Khorne has gotten more than enough love and it's time to add true value to the rest of the gods.

And lastly, I have a question. How come Angron can't be killed even by two Imperator class titans? It actually took me 3 to Take him down, and even though he died, the chaos didn't lose morale (at least I don't remember them being affected by his death. 1st I'd make him slightly less OP, 2nd I'd make his death be a huge punishment on all the remaining chaos troops, in the way of having 0 morale for the rest of the game, or some other damage debuff that would affect everything, even the engines.

The Imperium doesnt use robots, ever, due to the Iron Men. Some semi heretical Ad Mech factions (the Cybernetica) use extremely simple AI, but its little better AI then a turret would have and requires a Techpriest nearby to order them around or they revert to simple functions.


Horus used them because he used everything, and made pacts with very heretical Tech Priests who built them.

No, not false, Cybernetica isnt robots, theyre extremely simple combat programs similar to turrets that are improved with a techno-organic program wafer to be made into semi-servitors by changing their programming on the fly.


The imperium doesnt use robots, and to do so is heresy. Even the Cybernetica is just barely tolerated by Mars

GW has lately been calling Cybernetica Battle Automota robots, because GW doesnt know its own lore. For proof of that I give you Primaris Marines.
