Re: Ork Topic

Riku, I'm not really sure what you are talking about. Big stomp armor doesn't offer anything else other than melee? Lolwut? It performs anti-melee just as well as spiky armor. The unit (AC tics, shees, guants) doesn't even have to attack the boss, and if you try to bait it, his shootas suppress and ...

Land Raider Phobos

Maybe its just me, but I have alot more respect of the Autocannon than the Assaultcannon. we're not comparing the assault cannon or the autocannon here. we're also not comparing SM and Chaos termies. It's about whether or not the Phobos gets some kind of support ability for the rest of the Chaos ar...

Re: Land Raider Phobos

Asmon, both of the other land raiders allow SM termies to reinforce on the field. Why not chaos ones, who are weaker? .... Kinda what Torpid said. And Chaos generally hits way harder than their SM counterparts. If we're speaking in terms of terminators, they hit equally hard. :mrgreen: Are you tell...

Not sure why you hate termies, seer council appropriately buffed with guide/fortune etc will wreck the ranged variants and give LC termies a run for their money

Re: Acid Splatter

So why is right that a commander who has 2.5 more speed than the PC by default (not including sinew or towers) as well providing fantastic mobility for his race be just as effective as a melee counter as the PC is? because the PC and RA are very different heroes with very different armies that back...

Re: Ork Topic

regardless of whether or not spiky armor is UP or not, it is still far underused compared to the big stomp armor, which is a)just as effective against melee squads (tics, gaunts, shees etc) b)doesn't require the opponent to attack your WB c) can be combined with angry bits for some absolute wreckage...

Re: Land Raider Phobos

Eh, we've already explained why the other transports LRs are better at support. They are shorter ranged, do less damage and are countered by tanks. The phobos doesn't even have that low HP, 2k hp is the same as a swarmlord, the redeemer only has 2.5k. It's totally fine how it is, the thing hurts. Y...

Re: Land Raider Phobos

hmph. The point of this thread was not to find out if the Phobos is comparable to a D-Cannon. Comparisons to a BB are also meaningless. BB outperforms Phobos is pretty much every aspect of play, so let's not talk about that. I still would like to see my Daemonic Possession ability implemented, for m...

Re: Playing Retail?

although you can play Campaign in Elite, too. I didn't try it out, though. Wouldnt try it. I just looked into it once, and noticed that the TechMarines head is missing there.^^ Yes some of the models are kinda messed up in the campaign, but let's face it Martellus might be more useful without his h...

Re: Land Raider Phobos

Torpid, a Baneblade is FAR superior to a phobos. More health, and demolisher cannon can ruin any blob or setup team's day. Not to mention repair bunkers. As Captain Diomedes says, "IT IS DEH BEIHNBLEIDE!!!!!!!" :lol: I'm sure that most Chaos players would gladly pay an extra 100 req for mo...

Re: Post your character!

Force Commander Hairgel. For all intents and purposes, let's assume he was sent to the the Eye of Terror for a crusade of pennance, instead of becoming a Chaos Lord or being executed by Gabriel Angelos. Thunder Hammer FC, uses his old model from CR. AoE melee commander who completely trashes hordes ...

Re: Land Raider Phobos

It has less health because it's pretty much an AV platform with a high health pool. It's pretty much a beefed up laspred, but slower and bigger with all the pathing issues that comes with being so big :/ It already has that stun in a pretty far range around it. You suggesting to swap it then? Becau...

Re: A problem

it's a connection problem. Used to see it all the time in retail, still see it sometimes.
Don't think it has to do with the new maps.

Land Raider Phobos

Hello folks, this is forestradio, longtime DOW2 player and fan of the whole DOW franchise. I got interested in elite mod when Indrid started only casting elite replays, so I tried it. Big thank you to everyone who contributed to this mod, which feels a lot more polished and balanced than retail. Int...

Re: Bugs/Issues Thread

Not sure if this is relevant, but I believe that techmarine mines have the same really good snare as mekboy ones.
I also think they do more damage, though there are less of them for obvious reasons

Re: Post your character!

Sorry this just occured to me, but two Chapter Master terminator commanders would be sweet. Logan Grimar and The chapter master of the salamanders (forgot his name???) Logan uses Bro-cap animations with a big two handed power axe, really tough, gives some inspiration and buffs to allies. Vulkan (tha...

Might of ancients and avenger some possible melee abilities. all these are found in Chaos rising, but the general idea would be a...
