Yes, it represents the manpower tithe

is it intentional the gaurd uses sacrifices?,if not its prolly just a mod conflict on my end

Necrons have been idly in progress since I started on Mechanicum, I simply never finished them. Too much of one metal color gets rather boring to draw after a while.

Hello All your mods are great! I am curious though are the Necrons planned as a faction?

New update as of a day or two ago- added Malcador heavy tanks!

Is there a maximum to the number of fuedal troops a settlement will produce? Some of them have huge numbers of them right now.

Fair enough. They aren't the same thing as earthshakers I suppose.
Any feasibility on giving us the chance to select which kind of leman russ we want to build instead of it being random?
I like that sponsons are customizable!

Also excellent range on the leman russ as well, I love that you included the annihilators. I quite miss having more of these sorts of options for 10th ed 40k.

Front is the infantry, Mid is the fire support, Back is the command staff

The artillery pieces and weapon teams are fulfilling the normal ranged unit role for Guard, given that all their actual riflemen are frontline. Also, due to their sheer numbers, rear-ranked artillery would frequently just not be in range.

Any reason the Bombast Artillery is mid instead of back?
I feel like it ought to be back line.

Thx for your hard work, I'll be looking forward to updates

There’s always more stuff to add eventually, I’ll likely get to the abhumans and elite infantry at some point

Great mod. Had a blast while playing it! Any plans for sentinels and kasrkins\ogrins?

Ah well if you do ever get into the bigger stuff in the far future id love to see it get Overpowered and rediculous XD

Uncertain if I’ll be making a Baneblade, as they’re likely too big for CoE. The Macharius is probably the largest tank I’ll do.

Most likely, the Malcador is the next tank they’ll receive- mainly because I’ve been working on a few for Solar Auxilia on tabletop!

honest to god loving the mod can't wait till more war machines of the imperium show up...m..maybe a baneblade or three

Major update, adding the seven Leman Russ variants that weren't already in the mod, as well as majorly buffing Leman Russes in general. These changes will be mirrored for the Lost and the Damned soon, as well.

ah alright, thank you

Whiteshields can be gained from the ‘conscription’ ritual. Shocktroopers can also be recruited normally, 5 at a time, or the Castellan can call full platoons of them.

small question, how am i supposed to get more shock troopers if i only get feudal troopers from towns but it asks for whiteshields

Fixed and uploaded. You will likely need to unsubscribe and resubscribe for it to update.

I get the errors

Error in mod 'D:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\workshop\content\160634\333628581\5/ImperialGuardV1.0.c5m' at line 651

I can’t do anything about the AI cheating, modders have no control over the AI beyond telling it what rituals are important.

The AI seems to be able to get a very suspicious number of priests, I suspect they are recruiting them for free. (also bug is indeed fixed for mastery)

Fixed the mastery bug

Double Checked and yeah just the first Mastery ritual is available for first rank platoon commanders. Recognition of duty is not.

If it’s not working, I most likely forgot to give sergeants the ‘mastery 1’ tag.

Unless it’s bugged, recognition of duty should always be available, as it’s a mastery ritual.
I’ll check when I’m home, currently at a tournament.

Nevermind previous question realised that you have it on the random chance if lose them for getting recruitment of another. As for what I can see for abilities for them: Station and recall infantrymen then whiteshields, Infantry Deployment, Outfit Vox Caster, and Conscription. At that point cannot pick up any more level 1 rituals.

So far didn't see it as an option. Also how do you replace the platoon commander if you lose all of them before you can promote a sergeant?

‘Recognition of duty’ should allow a platoon commander to promote. I’ll check later today if there’s a bug with it.

Question, how do you get the tier 2 platoon commander? I don't see an option for it on any of the T1 ones you promote.

Thanks mate! I'll keep an eye out.

Recruit one, like any other commander. They have a percent chance of being available for purchase every turn.

Hey sorry for the dumb question, but how do you get a Sargent for the Field Promotion ritual?

The funny 220 strong guardsmen only army accidentally running out of AP on a frozen shallow lake tile and drowning the next turn is truly how the emperor wanted men to fight

You’re certainly welcome!
You might well be in luck- I do intend to represent at least a decent number of the sects, though I’m mostly pulling from 30k fluff so far.
If you enjoy the Guard, I suggest taking a look at the other three I’ve made, as well!

Feel free, and thanks for the warm welcome. I look forward to the Mechanicum! I'd love to see a genetor.

Glad you like it! It's not a huge deal if they're incompatible- like you said, I doubt anyone using one is likely to use the other. I'll probably contact you later when I'm working on Mechanicum again, as that one is more likely to be used in-tandem, once it's finished.

Hey very nice to see this! I do apologize about the incompatibility, I could resolve it on my end by simply amending a few names if it'd be amicable to do so. That said I don't see a need to use both mods simultaneously.

Eitherway I'll be giving this a try later!

Thanks!

Fixed!

I’ll get that checked once I’m home. Unless I messed up the die rolls, the minimum possible should be 24 men.

Hello! I had cast platoon deployment twice in a row, and had only got two shock troopers in total, with only one solder per spell cast.

This problem has now been remedied! The infantrymen of Elysium believe strongly in the words of the Uplifting Primer, and find bayonet charges to be the most efficient means of defending fortresses. However, with new direct orders issued by the officers, the venerable Cadians will properly defend walled locations when directed.

I have to report a slight problem with out local white shields and even the honored Cadian shock troopers . During sieges these troops refuse to hold the wall and will directly charge out of the front gate (often leading to massive slaughter) I have sent out adepts to investigate but both their weapons as the gates were perfectly functional . I suspect a cult of khorne has infiltrated our ranks.

@melloth_the_woodelf
Yes, the version with a relic cost and the version without are separate commander recruit rolls. It’s not a huge deal, as the rolls don’t compete, and the relic one can’t be recruited anyways- but I suppose I could edit the checks the list makes.

I just got a turn where i could recruit 2 priests , 1 for just gold (71) and 1 for gold and relics (40/30) . I didn't own a priest already so i guess something is wrong there.

@melloth_the_woodelf
Priests can be recruited for just gold as long as you don't already own a Priest

@verserixic
Already in progress for the next update, will be uploaded soon

Perhaps a burn terrain command added to armies with a hellhound?
