Guys your going too detailed its a big picture thing, think battle fleet gothic or Eye of terror campaign or something like that. Not IG not Space marines, not inquititors as individual races just one big imperial race. Perhaps we could make a torpedo weapon that represents space marine boarding attacks and space marine fortress monastery buildings on the planets to give you a better soldier rating. As for diplomacy you need to control that as an individual playewr in

I just looked at your mod and saw the pic for the Cybertronian Empire leader Leige Maximo. Where did you find it? The one I have I had to crop out a text bubble so it looks crappy. dunno it just came up. pinch it and paste it over the speech bubble one then cut round that or evenbetter just use my leige maximo pic

The diplomacy thing err yes stumps me as well. I have toyed with - uneasy peace with squats tau and eldar and permanent state of war with orks and necrons i set it up as chaos and nids (or worlds controlled by insidious genestealer cults, who now use the dread lord ship hulls making them look nidish) are human empires that would ally to the imperium while keeping thier true loyalties secreat - presumeably you decide to purge them later in the game. It's not a perfect s

I haven't run it through myself just fired it up to see if my machine exploded, no picking of metal out my face so seemed to work. I reckon it's not bad for 2-3hours random "what if i press this" type keyboard pressing. couple things though. The planets arn't changed yet as nobody has made the models for them. Hmmmm photo's not working? i'll maybe take a look at that probably a spelling mistake in the race config file or saved version. (i think pneumonic might

Reply to Warhammer 40K in Modding GalCiv2 Forums

you have things in the establishes cannon such as the rule of "mad" high lord Vandire or the age of apostacy where random chunck of the imperium fall out with each other. Vandire ends up ruling the imperium but the church (spits heavily) is against him and the black templars go against him and the custodian guard even get uppity which always means your gonna lose. best plan i reckon is as i have said beofre, that if you want to run normally you use a "mod" rac

was thinking about using the "War within" factions Autobot, LSC, Wreckers, Decepticon, Ultracon, Predacon and then filinging in a couple,other, need a unicron type planet, set it after the movie as a slwoly rebuilding unicron sending minions to do his bidding type mooowahahaha need a bit of quintessons and maybe humans?

i knocked up a 40k mod and have been thinking about this for a while now i have a few days off and the new movie trailer for inspiration........ need, what 9 factions? need to change mini civs also not sure how to represent transformers and give it that kind of feel, maybe tech tree ammendments to soldiering so you have head masters and target masters instead of shock troops etc Unicron would make a good planet for galvatrons decpeticons (or alternate reality decpetico

errrrrr tell you what. download my mod and use that to tweak what you want. dunno who you talked to at games-workshop but some of that sounds a bit odd i would suggest a look at the website http://uk.games-workshop.com/warhammer40000/ take a look at the race background info cause i think someone is leading you a bit astray and then butcher me mod for all it's worth - i've done the same twice to it already. although when i say astray i mean "ah i remember the o

i have updated the raceconfig file so that you have tau as a amjor race and interex as a minor human empire, changed all the minor races so now have hurd and jokeiro, kept a few of the pics abd just changed names. also genestealers use the dreadlords hulls which look a lot more tyranidish

yes at the mo Imperium, Eldar, Dark eldar, orcs, orcs again, chaos, necron, genestealer cults or interex (whihc will one day be changed back to tau) the minor races are still the same but thats on going as i have tooken a few dace off work next week and since i'm reading "False Gods" at the mo i'll probably bash around ripping out perfectly good code. If anyone has made any passible imperial etc ships i would love to see. I reckon we could probably kno

Reply to Warhammer 40K in Modding GalCiv2 Forums

The thing with renaming things is it will work for one race but not for another? Like manufactorum for humainty probably dosen't fit in with eldar? Feel free anyone to make changes and upgrades and such.

Reply to Warhammer 40K in Modding GalCiv2 Forums

yeah new version uses the mod folder, but I thought "ah this will be quicker" and then it all spiralled out of controll cause i ended up tweaking a lot of files. I'll do a new one and run it to see if i can get it to work in the "put in mod foler way"

Reply to Warhammer 40K in Modding GalCiv2 Forums

It needs more work, but the basics are there. what the next version needs is rewritten tech tree rewritten speech files new minor races probably a basic overhaul of the whole mod. dunno will see, oh and has eldar and dark eldar, i think? it did originally.

The horus heresy is the end of the great crusade. The primarchs were reunited with thier legions and then led them during the great crusade. All of which is irrelevant cause it's a "grand scheme" game as opposed to the micro management of 40k Trying to think how to turn the mini soldiers invasion tactic in titan deployment since i reckons that would add a bit of color to the ground battle as it were. Also if i could come up with some way to have a fort

it dosen't matter what you think of the nids as, genestealer cults anyone? I reckon people might want to use them so i put them in. If your a big fluf type person you can disable them that way everyone gets to play. Although the blood seeping from my ears in frustration is making it hard to think i have a nagging suspicionb that there were legions, comprised of chapters comprised of companies as a chapter is an old legion formation. I have no intention on making individual
