If only slugga nob is alive in a slugga squad, you can't build a waaagh banner.
Not sure if the slugga nob was able to repair or not though.

Not sure if it's considered a bug but it's certainly a well-known fact. Nob cannot repair either iirc.

Sluggas nobs should be able to repair actually, Scout sarges can repair in Elite too for example.
The slugga nob should be able to build banners imo. (bug fix)

Power sword+ carapace armor both equipped should break supression on lead by example. didn't work for the commie two times now. he was still supressed.. wonder if somebody cares or is it just buggy?

Suppression break and immunity is only activated if you execute a squad with carapace armor equipped, unrelated to whether you use Lead By Example or not.

- HT warrior drop does not reinforce ( don`t know if other nid drops r also affected)
- some kb issues generally / kb in retreat seems 2 b back in some cases / etc. etc.
- eldar dire avenger shields protect from nade damage ?! don`t nades r ment 2 ignore cover generally ?!
(btw: thx 4 the great work 2 the modders and all others who r involved)

Oh. I misread it...

Reduces the energy cost of Inspire Courage by 25, lowers its cooldown by 45 seconds and breaks suppression and grants suppression immunity for the Lord Commissar for 15 seconds when Inspire Courage is used

Ok so I execute while under supression and the LC as well gains supp.immunity for himself? (As well to the squad?)

HARRYY wrote:Ok so I execute while under supression and the LC as well gains supp.immunity for himself? (As well to the squad?)

Yes and no. The commissar breaks suppression and gains immunity but the squad doesn't. If you want the squad to be immune you'd need to go for bionic eye, but at that point you'd have to choose between it and carapace armor.

Domino kb is possible in retreat.

Because how the game is coded, it ignores grenades as it is ranged damage. You need to throw the grenade from the same side for it to do damage.

Are banshees supposed to be immune to explosive shot's knockback while leaping?

Everything that can leap/jump in melee cannot be knocked back during the leap animation.

Are sternguard vengeance rounds supposed to have 9 reload time? For a second I thought they bugged out and stopped firing altogether before checking the codex.

So... you see something ingame, you check the Codex and confirm it matches what you saw... then ask whether it's a bug?

Long story short it's not.

Yes, they always had a higher reload time.

I initially thought it was a bug, but it threw me off seeing that it's intentionally triple the reload time of the other three rounds, nine seconds of it standing doing absolutely nothing. I probably haven't been here long enough to have seen the explanation that came with the change for that reload time, so I have no idea why it was 'balanced' like that instead of damage modifiers.

Burst damage?

Lulgrim wrote:Burst damage?

As opposed to constant DPS option? Don't get me wrong, I'm not claiming it should be one thing or another, but at the start I figured it'd be a constant DPS alternative since there's already AV burst options like the lascannon, meltabomb, and missile launcher (which tacs lose the ability to equip once upgraded to sternguard, and even reloads faster), two of which have snaring effect, and antiSHI like sniper scouts. The damage delivery system is the same as the other rounds with just added reload time, so I wouldn't call a 21 second average constant 2 second burst 1 second cooldown damage time before a 9 second reload 'burst damage'.

Counter-intuitive is the word I'd probably be looking for regarding this issue in specific. I'll assume it's put that way for good reason and stop pressing the issue.

why I dont recive all files when I install the full installer that you posted?: http://dawnofwar.info/dow2-elite-2.5.1-installer.exe
and I am new user it is first time I download this game.and I installed steam that I had to look for it by my self...

You receive all of the mod's files.

You must buy the base game first, which requires Steam. We can't distribute those.

No real biggie but sometimes when I Warp out a Dred with the Sorcerer it gets teleported, then dies. Could this just be some kind of DoT that is still lingering...? Obviously it's my fault for not Warping earlier but it really sucks to lose a Dred and waste 100 red when you thought you got away with it ='<

Also Riku mentioned the Autocannon Havok's animation finishing and dealing damage even when a unit moves quite far out of their firing arc. Is this to do with the animation or maybe the firing arc lines being a little too small?

Maybe the Codex was written wrong. This was a good attempt to improve our community.

Should be just last hit animation. Same when dead ASM jump out.

About Havol - it's burst damage

No replay to show, but I'm pretty sure I saw when psychic lash (Brother-Captain) kills a model, cooldown is reset. Will test soon

Replay from our game attached. It did seem to be the case.

Also, testing on AI, refunds energy cost as well.

Trippa shot does not stun a battlecry-active force commander.

This should not be the case as other stuns work such as weirdboy vomit.

It's quite a big deal in the MU. Please fix. Tyvm.

I reported this a long-ass time ago, and afaik the stun is not supposed to work if the target is not knocked down. Since you can't knock down a BC force commander, you can't stun him with trippa shot.

Or perhaps I'm misremembering *shrugs* and it's actually unintended

Chosen Plague Marines instagibbing an Apo when activating the Rot of Nurgle ability:

https://www.twitch.tv/bbbos/v/68013717

Similar to when my Tacs died from the ability, but this time it died on activation of the ability, compared to before where tacs died when the ability wore off

Stuns occasionally fail to prevent ability use. I played Chaos Lord who could still Kill The Weak while stunned, for example.

Full auto doesn't knock back the lord commissar even when his shield is not up and he doesn't have his battlecry activated.
