Welcome to the Space Wolves Race Modification for Dawn of War : Soulstorm!
This adds the Space Wolves chapter of the space marines to the multiplayer and skirmish game. It brings with it ice, snow and wolves!
The Wolves of Fenris are on the loose! A complete remake of this famous modification for Soulstorm.
Welcome to the 0.77 Beta version of the Space Wolves for Soulstorm, proudly presented by Team Thudmeizer!
Please note that this mod requires the objective points to run and is not compatible with Night Lords versions before 0.7.28.
Since the Imperium came into being, the Space Wolves have fought tooth and nail for the cause of the Emperor. Amongst the most famous of the Chapters of the Adeptus Astartes, their sagas are told from one end of the galaxy to the other. As headstrong as they are fierce, the Space Wolves excel at close-quarters fighting, their warriors vying keenly for glory on the field of battle. The Space Wolves live to fight, and death holds no fear for them.
The Space Wolves based themselves upon the Death World of Fenris, an icy planet full of giant wolves. They are incredibly martial and have an usual structure in that you start as a squad, as a young and feral blood claw. Squad losses are not replaced and as you survive you take on greater roles, be it a grey hunter, a long fang or maybe a veteran scout. Should you find yourself as the soul survivor then you will be honour bound to take up the mantel of lone wolf to seek vengeance.
This version of the modification came about primarily when I found the modders resources put online by knezekj: Moddb.com and much like Reneguard it was intended to be a quick project, simply shuffling around the existing assets. Much like Reneguard, I was grossly mistaken and it became a much greater endeavour!
When you play it you will find something is missing - you cannot reinforce your squads, but do not fear because as the squads take losses the survivors become more determined, more resilient and become harder to kill. There are exceptions, such as the Wolf Guard squads who are joined by invite and due to their nature they can add new members.
With their distinctive howling and the battlefield changing powers of their rune priest then the wolves have truly arrived! This version has no new voices...yet...and there are some models we would like to eventually alter, but I wanted it to be available for people to play, test and hopefully enjoy - this is not the last you will hear of the Space Wolves!
Should you be new to this then simply unzip the file into your Soulstorm directory and find it from the game manager. You will need the objective points mod in the root directory as well.
Thank you all for your continued support to Dawn or War and our modding efforts. It is very much appreciated and keeps us going.
This version is the world's most Fenrisian (ie, coldest) hotfix which changes the squad cap of the blood claws as it was too annoying. I will return to this mod one day though!
TTFN,

Thanks. Supported in Unification?
yes it is.
Why did they download it if there are no changes, or am I mistaken?
How to I install the mod? Sorry kind of a noob question. I go to my computer files and downloads and all I see is the internet explorer icon next to the file and I can't open it. Again sorry noob question i'm not used to modding
get something called 7 zip and you need to extract the files. then it might work.
Can somebody give me a valid battle tactic with this faction? I keep getting overwhelmed by the orks whenever I play till mid game and the near incapability of most infantry units to reinforce gives me a headache when facing a massive horde in the middle of the map.
(I'm a guard player btw and so my tactics usually leans towards attrition and standard pre heresy DuskRaiders tactics.)
