Re: Illustrator would like to contribute :)

That's great! Glad things seem to be looking up for you now! I still do portraits for the Elite mod tho, I really enjoy it :D But I think you can tell, haha ^^ Kilgarn! Any chance you could finally do the derpy stormtroopers for IG? We've needed a suitable portrait for them for AGES. Orgryns are ok...

Re: Elite Mod 2.6(Test Version) Changelog and Feedback Thread

Nice... Let's nerf IG more, Especially the Commissar Lord. Welp, guess i'm done with this game. May as well wait for DoW3.

Re: E3 2016 (June 12-14th)

Maybe this should have been it's own post but it does concern E3 for the most part so what the hell... Yesterday the Halo Wars 2 beta was released, and I'm noticing interesting parallels between it and DoW3. For the most part, reception has been negative. Maybe even more so than the first analyses o...

Re: It's happening.

To everyone complaining about the graphics, chill out. If the game comes out next year then it's probably still in Alpha or at the very least the screenshots are from an alpha build which is pretty much full of placeholder graphics. The units look like they got their 3D rendering with color for gla...

Lol no.

Re: LC vs PC

With a reinforce cost of 18, and two leaders providing two more models for free, each guardsman in theory would cost just 6 requisition. Still, emphasis on 'in theory', because the reinforcement mechanic means you're already spending 18 requisition up-front for the first guardsman that dies, regard...

Re: LC vs PC

How experienced are you at this game (how many hours)? On an equal-skill basis, the PC vs LC does tend to favour the PC, but not to the extent that you claim. The PC and the Chaos roster in general have lots of low-effort ways to punish the high-model/low-hp nature of the IG roster, but as someone ...

Re: IG imbalances

Thanks, but it's sad. LC seems the weakest character in IG. He has a steeper learning curve than the INQ and LG, but he can actually be the most dangerous IG commander to face if used properly. pffff I strongly disagree with him being the most dangerous. He has some great combinations in T2, but he...

Re: IG imbalances

I've always found it odd that for the next-to-nothing combat value of spotters you'd think they'd be allowed to use their abilities from a garrison. I mean they're "spotters" their job is to literally look at things and then say "shoot here". Why can't they do this from inside a ...

Re: IG imbalances

To be honest, with spotters and catachans and LC especially IG counters setup teams pretty nice. Is that a joke? Out of all the IG commanders Commissar has the HARDEST time fighting off multiple setups. If you're fighting warlock for example, he's MUCH faster, has a global to give ALL his units ext...

Re: Community effort - Kasrkin voices!

You guys are putting just a tad way too much stock into the fluff here. Do people try to make Catachan Devils wildly different across the various different skins? No, Catachans have a unique personality among the IG that you can't force their models to fit in the skins that have been made for the mo...

Re: 2.5.0 Balance

Also higher overall health pool. I see it as a buff. I don't because now the gunner of the Heavy Bolter has less hp and that means he'll die easier. Last thing you want is a set up team having to set back up mid-fight. If I wanted more models to execute (which I really don't since they'll probably ...

Here's what all 3 look like together in a scaled down size similar to what you might see on the observer bar in a match. Even though the Assassin also looks to the right, even with a super quick glance you can tell which is which thanks to the little antennae he has with the light on it. Although In...

Re: Illustrator would like to contribute :)

In regards to what Indrid said, I think maybe even just flipping the portrait horizontally might distinguish it quite a bit from the IST and the Assassin. All the GK portraits already seem very distinct.
