Mind you it's easy to miss, I lost my internet for two-ish months and look at how much progress you've made Grab, to be honest you work to much.![]()

Oh thank sweet Jesus. I was so worried when I didn't hear anything from anyone on this project.

Sweet map by the way.
Fear not the Snake for his guile, nor his silence,
Fear him for his speed at striking, the clenching strength of his coils,
The armour of his scales, and the sharpness of his bite.
Fear the Snake, oh enemies of Man, for his coils encircle us
And his bright eyes, unblinking, watch over us forever.
-from The Lays of Proud Ithaka
OMG!!!!
that is a rather nice and extremely well detailed map

Some more industrial detail added to one of the bare areas:

And I've worked on the ground detail in the non-urbanised parts:

I'm exhausted, but i've managed to get a ton done today, this map is getting very close to completion, then I can go back and have a bash at the Chorral City.
thank you grabnutz, your hard work and exhaustion have not gone to waste.
they look AMAZING!!!!!
Now thats a map!
Bah Grab, your taking to long, I want to use those maps now! :P
They decided on a name in February. Although they are both good ideas :P

Indeed, as I also said at the top of this page...
/me slaps Argo to edit the first post
I bought both 'Flight of the Eisenstein' and 'Fulgrim' last week, just finished FotE and ive just started fulgrim... FotE was quite cool at the end as it hints at how the Inquisition and possibly even Ordo Xenos/ Ordo Malleus were founded.
FotE was enjoyable, and basically just patches up the story and events that happened during 'Galaxy in Flames', from the Death Guards and Nathaniel Garro's perspective.
It was slower to get into as the previous 3 books were a continuation of each other, but soon picks up speed and overlaps and continues with the story of Istvaan III started with 'Galaxy in Flames'.
Fulgrim seems to be a similar story patch, showing events from the perspective of the Emperors children.
I'm finding it a little slower to get into at the start however, but im sure it will be epic as graham mcneil did a great job on the second book.
possible future of certain characters...
I personally hope to see the return of Garviel Loken, as technically they didnt kill him off... they left him lying wounded looking into the sky at what appeared to be a second firestorm falling towards him... But FotE shows that a detachment of Imperial Fists were sent to Istvaan, and the firestorm could have actually been drop pods of the imperial fists companies come to the rescue... heres to hoping, as both Loken and Tarvitz were great characters.

Perhaps you were born without a sense of humor?
whoop, i love loken
infact in one of my men in my black templars army is named after him
I wish Torgaddon was spared by Aximand![]()
Hey guys! I've a question.
When will this mod be finished? I want to plaaaaayyyyyya!
Really, awesome job so far guys!!![]()
Well first we'll have to wait for the last Horus Heresy book to come out.
Well, technically, it has, as Fulgrim, Descent of Angels and Legion are simply the events of the pre-Heresy through the eyes of the Emperor's Children, Dark Angels and Alpha Legion, I think. They may not even advance the story, but... you never know. =P
#173
Fulgrim definately advanced the story somewhat

Isstvan V dropsite massacre
Luy22, "Hope is the first step on the road to dissapointment"
WOW, what was that map, I mean where will the action be?
i dont know if any of you guys have noticed but some of the chaos characters, who i hadnt previously heard of have appeared in the HH books, apart from the obvious Abbaddon and Kharn, there is also Lucius the eternal of the emporers children, and Typhus, who is the reincarnated form of Typhon the 1st captain of the Death Guard
http://uk.games-workshop.com/chaosspacemarines/lucius/
http://uk.games-workshop.com/chaossp...ines/typhus/1/
Well, yeah, I think that's some of the changes that they were talking about when the HH fluff came about and why they had to redo a LOT of the campaign, which I think they were already at 1/3 or 2/3s.
#179
no.
If we have updates, we'll let you know. Its very unlikely we'll have a beta release in the near future.
#180
Well, to add my 2 cents (hope you guys at VoT don't mind), better have a campaign mod that takes time to 'nifty' all of its aspects and provides a very good content with really well licked up storyline and atmosphere rather than having the guys put out some hurried mod with holes and shabby patches all over the place just because some people can't wait...
/rant off
Anyways, good luck guys. You belong to that group of mods that are much awaited and no doubt you'll produce an extremely entertaining and challenging campaign with hours of fun (hmmm...Dropsite Massacre... yumm !!!)
Cheers
We look to the heavens so that one day our children may look back towards home.
Lorken was a wicked character would be brilliant to have him alive afterall![]()
/me prods GrabnutzOriginally Posted by Grabnutz
You should've told me to remove the userbar then, heres me with some random thing advertising the word beta for people!
I've not actualy read the Horus Heresy books, I assume from the way most people are talking about them, they're worth the read? Something about multiple authors puts me off somewhat, but the impression I've been getting is the changes made are pivitol to the plotline.
You should get Horus Rising to Galaxy in Flames and also maybe Fulgrim, as Flight of the Eisenstein chronicles Garro's escape from Isstvan III (they changed the name) and doesn't offer much of the actual Heresy as the other books do.
But yes, there are some major plot changes.
so whats new in fulgrim.

Argo: How dare you make babies when SCAR needs doing!
Congratulations mate!
Fluffball: remind me to send you maps i've finished, so you can at least test for pathing issues etc, if the mission isn't coded yet, sorry we haven't been in much contact lately.
P.S I'm away for a week
Well, loosing the internet and having my email die doens't aid that, I think you've got my new email now yes?Originally Posted by Grabnutz
I have to echo Grab's congratulations, you've discovered Beer, well done Argo! Oh and possibly conragtulations on a few other things as well.![]()

Good to see this mod is still alive, I haven't posted in forever and i still looking forward to this.
However, all the moving I lost my copy of DoW, good thing theres a new package comnig out
well in the US its already out. you me the pack of 3 games all the DoW games right?
Just wanted to say congratulations to Argonaut on his upcoming 40k fan!
hello,
also my congratulations!!i'm happy for your family!
to the ones which want a substitute for the HH-campaign in the meantime:
there is an old demo of the campaign:
http://forums.relicnews.com/showthread.php?p=1736178
(only the 'mirror' works)
for some reason, the provided installer doesn't makes a proper installation, so the mod can't be started via the game manager (you need DoW-WA!)
you need to make an additional file in your 'Dow'-folder called "HHC_Demo.module", with the following contents:
HHC_Demo.module Content

some posts in the previous threads show that others also had my problem.
if the makers of the actual mod don't want that the old demo is referenced, please PM, i will delete this post if requested.
PS: i have to agree with a previous poster: this demo is superior to all relic campaigns![]()
'Now if you'll excuse me, I have some Death to defy.'
[P. Griffin]
Yeah that demo was awesome I still play it from time to time. My fluffy side was kind of annoyed by how fast the Space Marines died but it kept it challenging which to me is more important. If the actual mod is as cool as the demo suggested I probably wont leave my house for a month so I can play it. Hopefully my boss is also a DoW/40k fan, will also become addicted to the mod and therefore will not notice my absence.
You still have time to get him hooked before the mod comes out.Originally Posted by lordoftheT

I have to admit, after getting very frustrated by not being able to get things working as a campaign in DC, I had a little sulk and did nothing for about 2 weeks *hangs head*
"I forgive you."
Just try to finish this mod before the end of next week please.
Faster is also acceptable.
Hehe... just kidding.
I hope you get that problem solved Argo. Are there any DC mods out there that have a "linear" campaign (DoW/WA style) in stead of a world map?
#200
A linear campaign is the problem. I've resorted to sacrificing small defenceless animals on my patio in the hope that it will help find a solution to my linear campaign problem.
So far all that's happened is my wife has shouted about the mess and things being unhygenic. Bah.
