You should work with these new main guys.

And their names and any info would be handy. Tomorrow I should have some time for a video.

These new sprites and fixing of images *thanks* have restored my faith in the emperor

Any special Banners people want , homeworld? stats? Names , special roles , kind of master comon people suggestions chapter master is almsot as worse as dwarf fortress let's make some holy firework to show the sprites of shadow!!

But I do warn often have tech heresies and chaoos ended a good run



Are there new weapon spriets yet?
I have many ideas but i'm rather concerned people wont like em'. And your links broken.
I wish to hear these ideas, if you don't mind.
Its mostly a list names and a rank/role generator for unique chapters. Couple of diplomacy things i have in mind too. I could also write random unit history for marines who are super-distinguished.
That doesn't sound bad, actually. I like the idea of the more elite space marines having backstories and history, even if it is just a single sentence or paragraph.

As far as names go, i basically have an entire list waiting to be read. I could also bring some ideas for armour subtypes. E.g: The Armorum Ferrum (The Death Guard marine that Guardsman 111 made) is a Death Guard produced sub-type of the Mk4 maximus armor and consists of improved cooling mechanisms, a more protective helmet with better sensory equipment, and improved leg-motors at the cost of being more difficult to produce and more complex. (And yes i know Armorum Ferrum is Iron Armor, but Index Astartes was rather odd)
For diplomacy, i suggest that we have an option to assassinate Chaos Lords should we choose to ally. We basically either Sindri them on the battlefield or duel them. I could come up wth better lore for this.
For rank-role generator, i'd say we can create unique non-codex organizations for our chapter, and you know the rest.

So bak to the armor idea's at the time period

this is apprantly mk 2

http://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/File:IF_VII_Legion_Vet.jpg


and mk 3
http://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/File:IF_Tact_Spt_Legionary.jpg

So yeah we could use the sprites for older armour types.

Allowing people to both play 40k marines and older ypes.


Wait wait OMG
so its indeed difficulty because if you start early!! with the older power armours , there won't be any tyranids or tau yet!!!

Or Necrons.  Or Traitor Legions.  Emperor could be alive.  Primarchs might be around. 

I'm not sure what the fluff is on Dark Eldar. They are a relatively new addition to the universe but they may have been retroactively added.

I imagine "Techno Barbarians" from the Dark Age of Technology to be like all bright gleaming utopian sci-fi stuff, full of hope and progress and hot chicks in silver lame jumpsuits with purple wigs.  So maybe theres some high tech dudes with rayguns to smack down.

I'd love to play a Dark Age of Technology game, maybe focusing on the Mechanicus and its alliance with the Emperor to crush the other human factions...

But all this?  this is called Scope Creep.

Here's a thought. Why don't we replace the MK7-8 sprites with Legion specific sub-patterns of armor. That way, everyone gets their favourite armors, and we also keep the basic pre-heresy types.

TBH I think it'd be fun and fluffy if, when they're done with the code clean up (assuming they're still working on it after that) to allow for dynamic selection of armor skins. I sort like that more than just modding in your skin of choice to overwrite everything. Because it's pretty true to game for a Chapter to be made up of power armors from all across the history of the Chapter and the Imperium.

As much as we all like that idea it wouldn't make much sense for Praetor-Armored Novamarines, or White Scars in Thunder Armor. Unless you come up with some sort of explanation.

Recover a cache of pre-crusade armor? Happens all the time.

Really I just want to see artifact power armor look substantially different than your garden variety MK7 power armor.

One thing to keep in mind:


The way Astartes fight. The game should be nudged more towards small SM forces fighting on many front in surgical strikes, special ops, rather than big, conventional fights. that's what the IG is for.
