Hi guys,

does any of you know whether there is a Mod that includes Dark Eldar forces or if there are any models that would make an inclusion to Elite possible?

Keep an eye on this list:

The last beginners tourney was held a month ago and next week there will be the monthly rumble #9 for 2v2 matchups.

Well 15-20dps is more than one tac model worth of dps... That is significant in t1. Esp. as the SS ranged blob already melts stuff pretty easily. I am not for this to be inplrmented. Pretty sure it would just make the wargear offer too much for its price. 14.8 DPS, range 38 is worse than 15 DPS, ra...

Yeah, I've always thought that Providence should be like the Rosarius, where it doesn't need to charge via damage taken but is always ready after a long cool-down. As for the Witchblade of Kurnous, what's the base-damage on it compared to the warlock's starting sword? Maybe increase the damage of i...

Giving him a ranged weapon would screw with his default Battlecry ability. He'd not have a melee weapon for the specials which proc the buff, unless you fudge together some incredibly awkward animations or change the ability entirely. We already discussed that issue. A possible solution would be to...

I don't see a reason, game mechanics or otherwise, to give the FC a ranged attack. I mean there's no expectation that every unit in your army is engaged in combat at all times, when playing Apo you don't charge him headlong into melee all the time just because his ranged weapon sucks... If you get ...

In which case the wargear is getting a huge buff for no reason because it isn't underperforming as is. And yes, a ~15dps ranged weapon on him alongside his ~40melee dps chainsword is a huge buff considering how the SS works and how strong it already is. It would definitely be a buff, although not a...

SS is fine as is; although the ranged stance sounds interesting at first, the FC is probably one of the best tanky melee heroes in the game, not being able to use him to tie up/disrupt things would require a very strong ranged weapon to compensate (Combi-plasma, special ammo Boltgun etc.) and I rea...

Hi everyone, I successfully played my first few matches in Elite Mod and rightfully got my ass handed to me - it's good to be back! Compared to retail, many a change has been made and I find myself wondering what all the new shiny stuff does in comparison to other shiny stuff. Some of the counters i...

Indeed

Bahamut wrote:i think storm shield is fine as it is atm. Swapping the chainsword for a range weapon would be an awful downgrade

Because gaining the ability to shoot while having the same DPS in close combat is a downgrade?

I'm not suggesting to make the ranged weapon hilariously strong,
but something along the lines of 15-ish DPS with good accuracy while moving so he can actually do something while being in defense mode.

In close combat he could still whack things with his shield for the same 39 DPS.

http://dawnofwar.info/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=316 Samaritan, needless to say, you got my vote. So I'm not crazy after all. Or maybe you are crazy, too. Thanks for the input, Riku. Gonna try it out next time I'm facing a situation like the ones you mentioned. Do you think the wargear is fine r...

I suppose you're right when you say that it's gonna be a whole lot of work when it comes to animating the whole thing, so let's talk about the concept instead. Right now the Storm Shield is in a good spot, you say. How do you use it efficiently and under what circumstances? I've tried it out a few t...

First off I want to give a shout out to the community and the mod team. You are doing a great job in reigniting the passion for this game. Hopefully Elite Mod will continue growing! Now to my suggestion: As of now, the Storm Shield upgrade for the commander leaves him without a ranged weapon, pretty...
