Dawn of War Codex

Anyone ever thought of bringing back old factions from Soul Storm to this game? Like Necrons and Dark Eldar?

Not until the current ones are balanced. Grey knights are not balanced yet.

And then there is the issue of models. Which frankly we don't have.

yes; it's been thought about lots

models, balance, animations, etc etc etc. I don't see a way more factions can be added.

It would be hard to balance as there are some balance issues still without adding the crap load of balancing to do a new faction brings with it.

Not to even mention that somebody would have to make all models and animations, voices etc for the faction(s).

Ye and since u can't use DoW1 voices etc it's impossible.

I'm sure Caeltos could manage the design and balance (eventually), but the assets would need months of work from a team of competent artists, which we don't have. Relic needed a year for CR and a year for Ret... even if we cut the lame campaigns, we're "a bit" short on resources compared... with all of our umm zero 3D artists.

Tl dr: For the 7000th time, WE DON'T HAVE ANYONE WHO COULD DO THIS.

Stop starting threads like this, they are annoying. I should probably put it in rules or an announcement.

let's be honest; no one reads the rules. a sticky titled "NO NEW FACTIONS" might get more attention but we'd probably still see threads like this.

Well IIRC there's all of 1 rule right now so somebody might accidentally read before clicking on in panic...
