I wish that you could add maps that are big enough to fit warlord/emperor class titans.
And that when you played on those maps you were given the ability to build warlord/emperor titans.

I too would love that, but i do know that emperor titan might be difficult to implement in-game for it is too OP, Warlord perhaps?, eitherway what i'm expecting most is the survival mode :D

Well, Warlords could probably be implemented anyway, just for smaller maps you might have to use it as an improvised turret!XD I don't know Imperators/Emperors either, but MAYBE there could be an IG artillery barrage or something that would be an Emperor giving off-map support? It would be REALLY expensive though!:P

Oops, forgot to add that they could always add a condition restricting the use of Warlords and it's equivalents as well, so that would also help for smaller maps.:D

Annoyingly there are only set map sizes we can use and the biggest is 1024x1024 so we'd have to scale the titans to fit on these maps still.

Actually, that's not quite true. It can go up to at least 2048x2048.

But speaking of 1024x1024 maps, where could I download maps of this size? The only ones I have are 8P Moon, High Platform, and Ultimate Apocalypse (at least the ones I can think of at the moment).

Yes please on the next version please add more 1024x1024 maps! And if there can be 2048 maps, please add a few of those as well!!! :D

Or, people could start working on map packs instead of just pushing all that on the UA team! What a concept!

Well, I know what I'm doing this month. DoW maps & Homeworld modding, Lol.


Oh man, reading that Relicnews post. Could you imagine doing a Campaign with every map being at least 1024x1024? Just, Vast battlegrounds and pure insanity, Man.

Actually, they already has been implemented a few times, and it worked. For example in Dawn of Coalescence (Imperial, Demonized, and even the Dies Irae), but sadely not available. But if you want to check it now, look at ZMS mod for Dark Crusade, each titan class is implemented (just for the unit and scaling, I'm not advertising !).

The problem whould be to create monstorus creatures/titans for the other faction, cause If I know my things correctly imperor/emperor class titans are almost unbeatable and so the other factions whould have little to put against it.
And playing another faction whould not be so fun cause you know if the space marines/imperial gaurds would almost instantly win if they deployed a emperor titan, and balancing would be really hard.

Oh yeah! A huge map for Titan battles is good. Especially 4 player maps...
