Dawn of War Codex

Is it possible to make a Custodes dlc for gk just for looks? Put the storm bolters on the halberds, recolor the armor to look gold, etc. Obviously, we'll have to bend a few things around like teleporting Custodes, but it'll still be cool to have a Custodes looking army.

This seems like a lot of work, stuff that could be really hard to do. The use of custom animations for them is effectively impossible.

Sorry mate, I don't think it would be good :/

My reasons:

• Custom animations are impossible without an animator (and you need that because the animations are currently firing from their hand, not halberd.
• Reallt hard to make good Custodes with what there is.
• They are not a faction, they are not intended for frontline combat and cannot be an army (there are about 300 of them )
• Custodes are so much more powerful than GK, really not a good thing to put in wimpy Custodes.

It's possible. However just from looking at some images of these it would take a hell of a lot of new assets to do them justice and a lot of time. So probably no - unless we get a modeller who's up for it - and there are very few of those left these days.

Well thanks for thinking it over anyways. I just thought that since we had a preheresy Luna Wolves dlc, it doesn't have to follow by lore. XD

I dont think it should be THAT precise. Adeptus Custodes are basically Grey Knights with tall pointy helmets and capes. A mod for Grey Knights that changes their helmets, gives them capes and changes the helmets and shoulderpads of Terminators and Brother Captain should be more than enough.

As I said, its not lore that's stopping me or anyone else from doing it.

Assets and models to make it worthwhile doing is the problem.

They are probably much more than 300.
300 is only the personal guard of the Emperor that stand near him.

All the others are there, you know, just fighting the GREATEST AND MOST CRITICAL BATTLE EVER near the golden throne, where a new eye of terror is opening and, for 10k years straight, they are fighting the demons the pour out of it while the Emperor try to close it.

Oh, Warhammer 40k. Y U so grimdark.

Current Lunar Wolves could already give a nice base for Terminator shoulderpads.

I enjoy fluff, that being said, this would bother me to see. Custodes don't just fight whenever..

Which is precisely what I said.
