Dawn of War Codex

Dear Humble and Esteemed Game Developers, Coders, Artists, Technical Consultants and other amazing contributers who provide for the Elite Mod,

We the people of the MRT #8 tournament Twitch chat have consulted amongst ourselves and politely request several modifications to the currently existing Baneblade.

We the people believe that while the Baneblade is indeed a worthwhile unit, it is not flexible enough to fit into the current Imperial Guard roster.

As such, we recommend the following alterations in order to help balance the IG lategame. They are as follows:

Generally Agreed upon Requests which have recieved a concensus among the High Lords of Twitch Chat Terra

ITEM 1)
We the people request a reskin to the Baneblade that adds a Commissar Lord onto the top hatch of the Baneblade. This reissued Baneblade model will help reinvigorate the Guardsman who are otherwise low on morale.

ITEM 2)
We the people request that the Commissar would be waving a power sword directing the Baneblade and have a love of saying "Drive me closer, I want to hit them with my sword!". Preferably in inappropriate situations.

-----------------------------------------------

Mostly Agreed upon Requests that are perhaps in need of refinement but nevertheless the High Lords of Twitch Chat Terra believe are worthwhile causes.

ITEM 3)
We the people request that the Baneblade would be able to be infiltrated by the Inquisitor. We let Chaos get away with it. Why not let the Imperial Guard, the original creators of such tactical genius, share in this art?

ITEM 4)
We the people request that the Baneblade will be able to deep strike into the battlefield suddenly and without warning. The Grey Knights are capable of such a thing and since Grey Knights are clearly the developer favored race, we must balance the Imperial Guard to suit.

ITEM 5)
We the people request that the Baneblade must consist of a retinue of Leman Russes, to mimic the Lord General. Clearly a Baneblade should be the Defense Imperial Guard Commander over the Lord General so if you won't allow that then the ability to field a retinue would be acceptable.

-----------------------------------

We eagerly await your reply in regards to our requests.

Signed,
The High Lords of Twitch Chat Terra

I support this!

//Company Master Elenur, Dark Angels 4th Company.

Add my name to the petition.

2nd this.Also allow IG units to ride the baneblade to increase its very very minimal firepower

YEA Baneblades

-Also Nerf Spore mines, destroying that gen farm WTF

im ok with this as long as nids can mount their termagants on a carnifex and/or can shoot hormagaunt barrages from a carnifex into the enemy lines ! xD

Inquisitor cloaking the ENTIRE BB by herself? Imagine 3 Cloaked BB from 3 Inq, Chaos would be scared shitless ,anyways These are Hilarious to read ,dying from Laughter really..

I'am dying of Laughter ,really . Deep strike BB on the field is OP from my POV. This is Unique to GK even SM doesn't posses this trait .

You mean, CREEEEEEEEEDING the Baneblade?

Yes on the first two, no way on the last three.

Oh and I don't know why you said "we the people" elite mod isn't a democracy, it's an enlightened dictatorship.

Are you people seriously not seeing the, uh, humorous nature of the post ಠ_ಠ

Some people just don't get it

But hey, if you weren't socially inept you probably wouldn't be here

To clear up any misunderstandings most of this is not serious.

The Commissar riding the tank was based off the Death Korps DLC which I believe has a Commissar on the top of their Leman Russ. It was simply something that the Baneblade should already have.

Likewise, the Commissar line is based off of already existing stuff.

The other three are part of all the silly Baneblade related shenanigans that happen whenever people mock Diomedes and Boreale. The Twitch Chat was having a great deal of fun with thinking of new ways that the Baneblade can be buffed.

-----------------
Tl;dr Would be cool if Commissar on Baneblade became a thing, but otherwise this entire post is not serious in anyway and will only devolve into Baneblade madness if taken seriously.

IT IS THE BEEEEEEHHHHNNNNBBLLAAAAAA - oh it's gone.

Yeah, this was just a joke that was made from the post-tourney streaming with Eerie, Caeltos and Uncle Milty, where everyone was posting/saying random shit for jokes and the baneblade retinue was one of the few things that was brought up :p

I think what's misleading is that it was put in general discussion, whereas maybe it would have been better suited for random shit - hence why people are maybe taking it a little more seriously then it needs to be.

Also, grey knights OP.

And why not Baneblades which shoots Guardsmen? Or even better, Leman Russes?

Why not change the current Commisar with Commissar Fuklaw? Or even better, with Commissar Raege?

And why not let the GUO throw away his old'n rusty sword and use a Chaos Predator as weapon?

Why my Chaos Lord Daemon Sword do less damage than a simple chainsword? I demand oneshot anything (well, two shoot Baneblades and super units) with my Daemon Sword!

Need asnwers!!

Why don't Grey Knights one-hit Carnifexes? They all have force weapons.......

Why is the Chaos Lord wearing crappier Terminator armor than regular Chaos Terminators?

Why don't Hormagaunts cost 1 requisition?

Why doesn't the Chaos Sorceror simply delete entire squads with a wave of his hands?

I think we'd have deep striking baneblades if VANCE M'FING STUBBS DIDNT LOSE ONE HUNDRED OF THEM!!!!

bring back spore mine alfa pls

^^ Spore Mine Alpha Commander for Tyranids go go go.

Spore mine alpha aka hexilum

Default ability: "Explode" - Explode

Buyback 250

How could You forget about the MELEE STANCE ? It was one of the major points!

Brilliant OP.

I also said Venom Cannon Carnifex should shoot Venom Broods.Also more importantly T2/3 upgrade to Guardsmen that makes them Death Korp (same as Sternguard)

Not quite a commissar on a baneblade, but close enough.

Implement pls

^^ This is perfect.

Edit: If someone is cool enough to make a mod where Mr.Beehnblade replaces the old Baneblade unit portrait it would be the best birthday present I have ever received.
