All hail the Omnissiah!
The public Beta of the Adeptus Mechanicus Mod is available now for download containing a fully playable new race for Dawn of War Soulstorm with a very unique playstyle!
The priests of Mars, followers of the Cult Mechanicus have arrived on the battlefields. Driven by their quest for knowledge rather than for conquest, the Explorators are here to recover lost technology, but will fight to the death in this cause. Their love of the machine means that the Tech-priests utilise advanced technology in their weapons and automatons and revel in upgrading the weak flesh with mechanical augmentations.
Arriving in a mobile base, which is both production plant and fortress they use powerful automatons to assist them, however these must have their databanks refreshed by coming into contact with a listening point, or being rebooted by a leader else they will grind to a halt and need to be recovered.
Explorators are highly mobile, moving from site to site and do not use more than the minimum of buildings, so their listening posts are unique in that they can be used for research or defence. Further, they can convert incoming requisition into power with their matter converters.
Truly, the Adeptus Mechanicus have arrived!
the mobile HQ doesn't move
It does, but it work work with UA, Witch hunters and I think Daemon/chaos daemon mods. But it will move if you play the mod by itself and maybe a few others it just depends on their compatibility.
You can get the mod working with UA? How so?
You have to upgrade it as the game goes on. First you get guns, more guns, then the engines.
And remember not to choose the knight because it's either it or the mobile HQ as relic units
Great Stuff! I was just working a my own makeshift Cult Mechanicus mod for myself by putting together all of the servitors from other mods. Just generally learned how to mod the game. But this is awesome, ive integrated it with UA:THB so I can enjoy it along side all the other stuff. I look forward to the release version!
