This mod is not monetised. I will not be doing any paid mods nor set up a patreon. This is not an official GW licensed product. I will also not pull the mod, and will keep it on the net since any takedowns would be without merit. This mod aims at modifying Dawn of War 2 Retribution to portray combat in a more lore-accurate manner. Prepare to find Space Marines as powerful as the books depict them, ork hordes in their hundreds, and dozens of Guard tanks shelling into an incoming tyranid horde!
Description
3.35 full release Install the mod into your main Dow II retribution folder. Readme file included with Credits and instructions. Run either with Astartes.bat, or go to your Steam, go to Retribution, go to Properties, set launch options as "-modname Astartes" ,without the ""s. I recommend setting graphics to Ultra high before installing or mod may crash on space marines. Races , tactics, and units: Space marines heroes all have a separate race attached. Chapter commander is Adeptus Astartes, unlocking the contemporary 40k Space marines. Legion commander is Legiones Astartes, unlocking the 30k era late Great Crusade Space marines. Grey Knights commander is Daemonhunters, unlocking the Grey Knights. IG heroes are the same: Cadian commander unlocks the standard IG. Krieg commander unlocks the Krieg IG. Not suppressible, but fire slower if more powefully with their lasguns. Tau commander: Tau race, similar a bit to IG. Very weak in melee, but good at range with plasma weapons.

The malcador has to be one of the best things so far, love it
Afraid I can't animate the turret in its tabletop heavy bolter configuration, nor can I make a weapon face sideways or backwards unless the original animation was set that way, like on the Chimera.
Malcador is a wery god tank, but here it does not look like the original, I saw Primaris and it seems to me that this discrepancy is due to the limitations of the game, although it would be very cool to see a more authentic Malcador and, which would be even cooler, Macharius. In any case, many thanks for all the work done and for continuing to improve the mod!
Yes I can only work with what the game has, especially animation wise.
The 5 all around heavy bolters was not doable with the firing arcs, so I had to improvise due to engine and animation limits.
changes?
