Behold the Destroyer of Rocks comes! 




Update Time!

V0.4.4

Added:

Iconoclast Destroyer
Planet Killer Reproduction

Several missing ships added to sim opponents

Nice. Even the Iconoclast got added. First opponent we had to deal with in the first game.

Hoping that Space Marine update comes and you can make custom units using crew replacer maybe:

Creator of the above managed to make new unit types for both raids and invasions in his AI Retrofits mod.

Perhaps having a "Guardsman" marine type unit exclusive to the Imperium can add more flavor. Maybe slightly stronger Ogryn soldiers too. We can probably hire Ork mercenaries as well. Chaos can get special marine units using a special demon summoning function maybe.

Btw, the games starts with the Imperium, Chaos, and Orks being neutral with eachother which is kind of strange.

Oooo that looks like an interesting possibility.  More units for raids and ground fights would be a good thing.

I actually have code to set the factions per normal 40k universe:

For example in the Ork gen file:

FactionAPI battlefleets_ork_pirates = sector.getFaction("battlefleets_ork_pirates");
FactionAPI battlefleets_imperium = sector.getFaction("battlefleets_imperium");
FactionAPI battlefleets_forcesofchaos = sector.getFaction("battlefleets_forcesofchaos");
      
// Other Battlefleets factions
battlefleets_ork_pirates.setRelationship(battlefleets_imperium.getId(), RepLevel.HOSTILE);   
battlefleets_ork_pirates.setRelationship(battlefleets_forcesofchaos.getId(), RepLevel.HOSTILE);


However, Nex will rearrange things randomly.  This could make things, odd.    I haven't found how to counteract that yet.   You can always bend faction standing in-game I suppose 

I still have a bunch of ships for chaos to put out yet.   Unsure of which faction to go with next.  Just glad everyone is liking the mod.

Hello Brother
What a great mod it is.
I have but a one problem with it. Is there a way to Autofit the ships? In whole honesty iam not really into mounting all those glorious weapons by hand. That would really help.
Thanks a lot

You can change "goalVariant" to true in every file under data/variants. I'm not sure if there were some easier ways.

Idk why but when i try to start the game it wont let me as it says "fatal error [Imperium Plasma Torpedo] not found" I went into the weapons folder and deleted the Plasma Torpedo files but it doesnt change anything.
Does anyone have a solution?

You have GOT to add in the Tau next!

When ever I face fleets from the imperium of man they never have their weapons slots filled out. most of the ships only had their built in weapons and their point defense.

Personally, I'm in favor of ether Necron or Adeptus Mechanicus next. The sector needs more people for the Hegemony to hate.

That can only properly happen after I figure out how to make the Tau Mothership spawn three frigates at the start of every fleet action (in addition to being a carrier).

Of course the Chaos need some more units first.  A trio of related ships are being worked on.

Wait... is that the magic sauce to make it work??   Off to change variant files  .......

When ever I face fleets from the imperium of man they never have their weapons slots filled out. most of the ships only had their built in weapons and their point defence.

2nding this issue, I've noted that on a rare occasion there is a variation to a weapon being fitted, But in every fight with Imperial ships that aren't in my fleet, their broadsides are bare.
I have also found this issue with the forces of chaos fleets. Not that I overly mind the heretics laying themselves bare for the emperors mercy. But it isn't quite sporting.
The Imperial fitting issue also extends to trying to paste a player saved fitting in the fitting manager onto a player saved ship, the hull mods go on by the weapons do not go bbbrrrrttt.

Da ladz iz fit up right an propa thou.

Couple other bugs to note, Secundus does not have a population centre or a starport. This leads to it never growing, always having low access and stability, eventually revolting, over and over.
(For any that want to fix it in their current run without using commands) In game I've found that nuking it after chaos takes it over with a revolt allows you to resettle and fix it.
Quadal is at size 5 but has 4 industries, this imposes a 5 stability penalty. (Unsure if intentional or not)


I do not recall there being any such issues in the Ork system (Don't take me at 100% on that, I'd need to recheck the system) but I cannot attest to the chaos system as I've never actually gone there.

That issue aside, *** love this mod and it's very at home in my playthroughs.
The scaling of the ships took me a round or two to adapt to, I really wasn't expecting the ships to be at good scale so it first felt like there was an extreme range issue on the weapons. Then it all made sense. Warhammer for the *** win my good chap or chapette.

If there's anything you would like checked from a player perspective or stress tested, I'm always game for helping with Warhammer so feel free tae let me ken.
