Version 1.36
This next major installment to the Redux mod is here!
- Chaos have received the most new content, including the Chaos God Marks, Cultist Worship abilities, the addition of the Plague Marines and the inclusion of the Great Unclean One as an exclusive secondary relic unit. Transports have also been updated with Chaos and Marine Rhinos now having weapons and Eldar Falcons receiving the Pulse Laser and more weapon upgrades.
- The APD system has been completely reworked as toughness now scales more consistently with weapon strength, and the mod's mechanics have now integrated (some of) the 10th edition tabletop changes, drastically increasing the strength of anti-vehicle weapons.
- Ten of the vanilla maps have been revamped to include additional background details or have just been overhauled all together and five new maps were added to the mod: 3 player Melting Point, 4 player Temple of Blood and Water Station, 6 player St. Huldrych Causeway (reworked), and 8 player Polar Cap.
- The Tartarus single player campaign has also been given a batch of new content. The Artifacts inventory system now adds a layer of replayability as Gabriel can now find and acquire randomized items throughout each level to help provided unique buffs and auras for him and his Marines. Other additions include enemy research scaling which will help increase difficulty over time for Normal and Hard difficulties, drop pod penalties for commanders as their respawns will be on a cooldown, and drop pod progression which will advance commander spawn points up linear levels to reduce the travel time. Missions 1 - 6 have also had additional background details added into the levels.
- Over 40 new fx were included into the mod, some of which were made for planned future content like the Primaris Psyker or Tyranids.
- The mod now has a Spanish translation which is being kept up to date with every locale edit moving forward.
- Major balance changes, which can viewed here!
TO INSTALL
Simply download the .7z file and open with a safe program like 7-zip. Find your Dawn of War Soulstorm directory (for Steam users, this is under Steam/steamapps/common/Dawn of War Soulstorm) and extract the contents of the zip file into that folder. If you have Redux already installed, delete your existing Redux folder before installing the current version. It's recommended to use the Mod Manager to open the mod instead of directly through the game.
My God, this is so cool! I look forward to every update of this mod, you are the best!
