World Eaters faction aren't mine. But some of the Blood Pact models need a serious rework btw. But this will w8 a new Chaos edition.
The blood pact might be one of the best additions to the game that I've seen. Any chance of a patch to make it work with World Eaters faction?

Oh, cool, thanks! Prepare for balance barrage!
Devian  [author] 29 Jul, 2024 @ 7:14am 
You can use the ctrl+D to enable the debug mod. With it, you can spawn any entity of the game. Much more easier to test stuff.

If only there was something like sandbox...without it I can find things for balance only eventually...like immediate tank spawn ability of Eliphas or posessed marines of Erebus what cost one ability, one marine squad and gives annihilation squad what devastates infantry with fire and torns any armor apart with claws while gaining semi-hero armor, almost no morale loss and very fast legs.

As i already said, balance is quite difficult. And i can't do it alone.
Мышка-Сосиска 29 Jul, 2024 @ 6:22am 
Cool. And balancing mod in this game is actually quite twisted work because I don't even know how vanilla balance works as there can be alot of moments where damage seems surprisingly low or high, when, for example, Chaos Lord can almost oneshot Space Marine outpost while Daemon Prince, which is 3 tiers higher than Lord will beat single outpost for 6 turns, or when gatling beast will be stronger against vehicles then marine squad with melta bombs.
Devian  [author] 29 Jul, 2024 @ 6:14am 
Indeed. But don't worry, there is only few abilities with music. The majority uses the vanilla ones.
Мышка-Сосиска 29 Jul, 2024 @ 6:08am 
Do you like music on abilities? :O
Well, maybe it's not so bad, but I'm playing with ingame music on and it feels kinda odd when one epic music starts in a middle of itself above another epic music and then fades out, not showing own epic clearly during time whie it plays (and it shouldn't be long) and interfering ingame music, what feels unfitting.
Maybe some ingame or internet effect sound files can actually replace such epic.
Devian  [author] 29 Jul, 2024 @ 5:49am 
You don't like the music on abilities ? :O I really like the effect on game (if someone has seen an AI using the ult skill of the Saint on an entire army, it's really something).
I mainly used vanilla files but i get bored sometimes and prefered more exotic/epic music to emulate the power of the hero/ability.
