GET READY FOR SOME TRUE PLEASURE!
Hello everyone! Given many people both here and on Discord have been asking me how the Renegade Knight will work in the mod and since I would like to post some progress,I think I could try something different and hit two birds with one stone.
In the upcoming version,there will be the option to choose ''House Glaw Support' at Tier II.This will give you access to many new toys in your arsenal(which depend upon the branch you have selected) at a price which dynamically change your strategies,so you will have to plan accordingly!
Miriael's Branch receives the Knight,as an alliance between the two Houses,Glaw and Devine.
It replaces the Subjugator Titan as the second relic option in the War Machine Portal.
Essentially,trading the raw firepower of the Subjugator with the flexibility of a Knight.
Note:like all relic units,they share a shared cap,so in normal matches,you can only field one relic unit.
However,progress is made in Unification(with which,the EC mod is fully compatible) to offer something different.
Note 2: Lucius' branch also gets the same treatment,however with a completely different war machine which I will not reveal yet. ;)
Once you get your Knight on the field,you will notice it has a unique sub menu.
Upon opening,you will notice a handful of addons/weapon upgrades.
These addons have their own basic requirements (not related to Easter Eggs, simple stuff).
One of them is the extended House Glaw Advanced Wargear upgrade,which farther solidifies your friendship with the House.
Once all requirements are met, you will be able to choose what fits you the best for each situation and essentially make your own Knight loadouts!
Possible weapon upgrades are:
Right arm:
Left arm:
Top:
Hull:
And as a bonus:a ceremonial mask for the head,which gives access to the Ion Shields.
Pictured:The House Devine Knight in melee while upgraded with a las impolsor, thunderstrike gauntlet, missile launcher and ceremonial mask.
And that should be all folks.Do tell me if you liked this type of a ''dev update'' and if you would like more of this in the future. :)
I should mention that the next version is actually pretty close to release,if everything goes well,so stay tuned for more news regardless!
Have a good one.

Seventh map set in Svarog Sector. 4vs4 or 2vs2vs2vs2.
Im late to the game. How do you install this mod? I have the DOW through steam. Shows up in the game mod menu but won't start.
Montag_451 development of the EC mod has been moved over to Unification instead. We have stopped doing standalone releases as we focus there.
@Montag_451 You start it with the DOW mod manager,
Moddb.com
then the side will appear
Here is my Emperors_Children(EC).module with Witch Hunters(WH) side added
FYI WH is a great side to play opposite this one
"We will shepherd the unruly masses"
Use v.2.6

I did not like much the EC music so I downloaded
Moddb.com
then copied over the names of the music files in the Emperors_Children\Data\sound\music and also loadmusic
to the ones in the download (.fda files were renamed)
then replaced the EC music folders with it.
Then the music from the ultimate-apocalypse-mod-music-replacer played instead.
I did the same with the WH music substituting their.fda files over some of the EC music (renaming them the same as EC).
There might be a better way of doing it but it was fast and not that complicated.
Could you post the playlist somewhere of the metal music used in the mod?
on this page (very top of page, the intro text) there is this line:
"A proper credits list is located HERE."
click "HERE" and in the credit list there is a list of songs used.
+1 for coding
+1 for FX
+1 for extra THICC textures
+1 for shy young ladys and gentlemen
+1 for good music, especially for band Azgard, they are mai countrymen
Verdict: great mod to play as a gachibanger or heretic alike.
tell me how to summon a dark princess instead of a magpie (sorcerer). Will it depend on randomness?
Fight Eldar or TS, go Mirael. She replaces sorceror.
Hello! Will Lucius the Eternal receive any buffs in the future. He is a lot weaker than someone like Kharn or Typhus. I feel he is really squishy and does not output the damage the previously mentioned characters can. I Love your guy's work and I appreciate what you have done for the Dawn of War community!
Hello there creator of this hlorious mod, i just want to as one question, so I play as emperors children and I must say noise marines seems to be pretty op, as much as i like the mod im not found of playing as them so I tried to play against them instead, after 11 skimrish mathces I want to ask this question, did you took ******* balance into consideration or just used whatever stats you thought would fit?
I gather you are using the old version but most updated is over Unification.
Encouragement, keep updating this mod if you have time, Unification, while amazing, is a megagig install monster (20.+ Gig install) and sometimes one just wants to quick match without all the load times.
