Astartes

Description
If you enjoy my work, you can support me! https://boosty.to/kytheron/donate



Emperor's finest warriors arrived.

This mod adds 17 new sets of armor, 8 types of weapon from Astartes arsenal, and an entire faction of the Imperium of Mankind from Warhammer 40,000

Meet the first update to the legion line-up, as well as new weapons for conquering worlds.

If you are interested in the mod and want to see the new legions, I invite you to vote for the following two legions in the separate Steam section

FAQ:

Q: Will you update the mod to 1.5?
A: Yes

Q: Can I add it to an ongoing save?
A: Yes!

Q: What this mod adds?
A: 10 variants of the Spacemarine's power armor, in the coloring corresponding to the different legions. I have tried to depict the armor as it was when the Horus Heresy began (30k). Astartes weapons are represented by bolters and plasma weapons, for those who like close combat there is a power sword. To emphasize that the Astartes warrior is many times stronger than a mere mortal, I added progenoids, which can be installed to an ordinary man and turn him into the best defender of humanity.

Ah yes, the faction.

The new faction looks a lot like the Empire from the vanilla game, but has its own features. You'll be able to trade with them and buy high-tech supplies at a fairly favorable price, and by trading with them you'll be able to acquire progenoids.

I tried to make the Imperium the antagonist of the game Empire, so that when you play as the enemy of the Empire you always have powerful allies at your fingertips, contacting which you can summon help to the Astartes or ask for a trade caravan.

Q: And what help would the Imperium give me if I asked?
A: If you become an ally with the Imperium, you can use the console to summon Astartes fighters to your aid. It is a small garrison on a remote world, so only one spacemarine will go to your aid. But even this is a formidable force, capable of turning the tide of almost any of your battles.

Q: How can I get progenoids?
A: The main way to get them is to buy them from Imperium Faction. But you can also try to get them from wounded Astartes, and if you succeed, you get them.
If.

Q: Is this CE Compatitable?
A: Yes, as far as I checked everything works

Q: Are you going to add something new?
A: Yes, I plan to do all 18 legions, and you can vote for the next one right here, in Discussion section in Steam

Also, new weapon types will be added along with these legions.
Psyker abilities are perfectly covered by the mod Vanilla Psycasts Expanded
You will be able to experience the power of the Sorcerers of a Thousand Sons to the fullest.

Also, I will try to work out the faction, and make for it a system of titles similar to the Empire. Or maybe something else.

Feel free to suggest new ideas, of course, not all of them will be implemented, but the best ones will be reflected in future updates.

Updated the mod, the problem was in the patch directories for CE. I resisted the urge to just delete it for a long time, but I like playing with it more!

Please let me now if everything is alright right now

I have the same problem. all the weapons are gone from my saved game.
Silver 17 hours ago 
So...
funny thing all the weapons have vansihed from my save and they also no longer appear in research. Did that update break something or is that a problem on my end? Dont want to rule that out.

Anyone else having that problem?

I'm not able to spawn any of the armor using Prepare Carefully, the option isn't there

@Deathincarnate

I found what the problem was and already fixed it. All that's left is to make other changes and release a patch.
