This mod consists of a transformation of some of Dark Crusade characteristics by adding more techs, including the powerful Veteran tech, new units and abilities that make all races different from the ones in the original Dark Crusade. Some of the new features of this mod include aircraft abilities, like thunderhawks dropping bombs on the battlefield or valkyries bombing a target. This mod is still in the early phases of development, so stay tunned for updates.
Kroot Warriors and Kroot Shapers are nice but a link seems to be missing somewhere and so i created the Kroot Veterans.
Any thoughts?
Kroot Veterans, a Kroot Warrior that survives enough, hunts enough and feeds enough eventually becomes more powerful. Although it doesn't have better gear the increased physical strenght and evolved mind should more than compensate that.
Instead of "Veterans", why not Shapers?
An army of Kroot Shapers. :)
Although an army of shapers could be nice, i think it wouldn't fit my idea for the Tau. These Veterans move like Warriors, fight like Warriors but had more combat experience and fed more times on the enemy. They were still shaped by the Shaper but they are more common than a shaper and less common than a warrior. They will serve as sergeants while Shapers serve as commanders.
Shapers are the Kroot equivalent of sergeants, not commanders. Kroot commanders are called Master Shapers (source: Chapter Approved 2004).
I meant they are commanders in the game not that they were designed as commander units by GW, so basically i will keep them as commanders while adding a transition.
