Hello everyone!

I am thrilled to share with you the latest version of my project, Planetary Empires. This is a classic game from the 1990s, which has been a great tool for campaign for Warhammer 40K.

When I heard about this project, I was immediately intrigued. I decided to give it a try and create my own modification. After searching for existing modifications, I realized that none of them met my standards for quality. I wanted to create something unique that felt like a real game, with physical hexes that could be manipulated.

It took me a while to find the right 3D models for the terrain, but I eventually decided to focus on building my own models and using images for the landscapes. I began working on the project late last summer and have finally brought it to completion.

During the process, I faced some challenges, especially with finding a suitable model for a spaceport. However, I persevered and created one from scratch, and I'm very pleased with the results.

There is two versions of hexes:
1. Battlemats from map builder (https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3372253478)
2. My own images of landscapes.

If you want to place objects on different tables, I recommend setting the grid size to 6.1, with reference to the center.
To mark captured territories, players can use small flags or banners.

I have provided some flags (from an old mod - https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1929543835), but I personally prefer using flat tokens or cubes with faction symbols, or any other banners available from the Workshop (for example - https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3292191103). You can also change the color of the hexagon base and highlight the borders this way.

This mod contains the original game rules. Although a lot of time has passed, these can serve as a starting point for creating your own custom rules.

For other models, I used this models:
1. Buildings - https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1039909
2. Hive city A - https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3798317
3. Hive city B - https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/game/hive-city-for-planetary-empires
4. Tile base - https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:29890

Lovely mod! The link to the hex builder is marked as suspicious, but otherwise perfectly what I've been looking for so long!
