I feel like the conscripts might get pretty demoralized if their commander keeps calling them “conscripts.” It’s like a farmer calling their cows “breakfast.”
No, conscript is just someone pressed into military service, which includes pretty much every space marine, but also includes every kreiger, and even in things like Halo, masterchief, and every other spartan
"This is a family show," he complained, shortly after talking about breaking a battle sister's back door...
Ah the Imperial Guard, taking on living saints with nothing more than flashlights, moxie, and sheer weight of numbers.
I salute you Shack! This is such an Imperial Guard behaviour.... Let's use the conscripts as a shield for our bunker, we all know which one is more expensive lol.
Grant just casually ignoring a freakin' Pentient Engine tearing up his entire army had me having a bruh moment.
Be advised that building power generators next to/attached to buildings actually decreases build and research time. You keep building them off to the side when you could be tossing out a guard squad in 4 seconds or tiering up in less than 2 minutes with 3-6 generators attached to the hq
Great for cranking out stuff like titans too.
speedrun strat
Is that for every faction?
@@Owen902 Yup. This is a Crucible/UA mod thing, though. If you are playing vanilla, it doesn't work that way.
I agree. While it's good to see content up from DOW1 and credit to caster for being great at commentary, the turtle play style is a bit too slow for me.
"We will screw them silly!"
Inquisitor, check that tank crew...
They've been corrupted by Slaanesh, heresy!
Just so you know, the plasma cutters that the Elysium drop troops get DEMOLISHES buildings.
Shack the bunkers have always had the feature that unit squad = lasguns(Not Lascannons those are the big AT guns that heavy weapon teams get), 2 = Las + Plasma and 3 gets Las + Plasma + Heavy Bolter. Note this is for ANY unit. A commisar, commander or other single model unit counts towards the buff.
Conscripts work GREAT for this too! Especially newly created ones. Don't need to invest into reinforcing them if you don't want. Also helps to remember that they can travel between garrison structures more or less instantly. Perfect for defending a newly acquired, unupgraded listening post!
If I recall, tech priests might count as additional units but it's been a long time.
@@nonya1366 They do, if your 3 builders are attacked and are near a 3 cap building putting them inside can let them cause a lot of damage
@@crplsteve Turns out knowing how to pray to the machine spirits was a great call.
Danke for confirming it too for me, been a while.
About artillery - mod maker rebalanced it giving each unit specialty:
Medusa (tier 3) - anti-vechile(including titans) - high damage short range
Basilisk (tier 2) - anti-infantry(special shell as well) - medium range
Griffon |(tier 3) - anti-infantry, buildings, vehicles (inferno shells upgrade increase efficiency) - longest range of all your mobile artillery pieces. And highest rate of fire in case you want delete everything.
And as it was mentioned few times before - building more HQ increase max plasma generators cap and building generators next to production/research building increases production rates.
P.S. thermonuclear generators (both build on slag and late game one) have active ability to boost nukes production speed.
Medusa for anti-vehicle is dumb. It is expressly a siege weapon meant to destroy fortifications. And the Basilisk is supposed to be the longest range mobile artillery the Guard has. There are immobile guns with longer range and there are mobile mortars with equal range, but none that are mobile with greater. And the Griffon is a specifically medium range mobile mortar if I remember correctly. It’s rate of fire and mobility being the redeeming features for its poor firepower.
@@midgetydeath Lore sacrificed on altar of game mechanics leads to heresy 💀
I love how many man you sacrafice just to kill one squad of sisters xD
If I remember correctly without the mod the factions can be destroyed. I remembered my playthrough of playing the Imperial Guard, the Necrons destroyed the Eldar.
"This was the bloodiest battle yet. Smooth sailing at first, but once we started the attack proper... I'm not sure how I survived. Their champion cut through entire battlegroups in a minute, and nothing we could do could stop her. Until the General sent in the Baneblades. We crushed their shrines and destroyed their citadel. And yet, even as victory was at hand, I'll never forget what happened next. The enemies decided to burn themselves and their fortress to ash. This... self immolation... no one was prepared for it. The screams, the heat, and by the Emperor, the smell... I'll never sleep soundly again." -Report of an Imperial Guardsmen, following the destruction of the Sisters of Battle HQ
Seeing you go air command was amazing! You always go arty or vehicle. This was a super fun video!
something weird about this mod is that they don't want you to reach teir 5 on stronghold missions, probably to prevent global artillery usage so unlike most mods where they restrict relic access its the capture point that they removed from the missions
thats not the case the stronghold missions are the same as in the original its not like the mod did any changes to them its just some strongholds have critical points some dont. the ones that do have critical points in their *base* are the following (imperial guard,necrons,tau,).those 3 i am 100% they have critical points
@@evagelospapamixail9139 i can't confirm this for all of them but for example there was meant to be a critical location in the bottom left courtyard of the sisters of battle of stronghold which is clearly not there
We'll be adding decently placed crits and relics to most if not all of the multiplayer maps. The lack of points is a vanilla Soulstorm issue.
You forgot to actually build the gunships. I normally wouldn't have bothered mentioning it, but Vulture Gunships are absolutely AMAZING in this mod and are probably my favorite IG unit. The other weird thing about Aerial Doctrine is that it makes it so air support calldowns from the Com Towers are no longer on a shared cooldown. So if you have 8 towers, you can calldown 8 bombing runs and 8 Vulture missile strikes. Combined with sensor sweeps, your 'push button, delete enemy' potential is phenomenal.
Oh man this is like perfectly timed, i just spent all of last night basking in holy light as every little bit of backstory for my gaurd regiment, the 119th Naval Landing regiment, fell into place in my head!
So basically just imagine a bunch of guys and gals decked out in Halo 3 marine gear, who's job is basically that of the Mobile Infantry: load up in your dropships, fly down to the planet, and kill anything thats breathing and not human.
But after hotdropping on top of and annihilating a "small" Ork band who were laying siege to a sparsely populated colony, their supporting battlegroup up in orbit proceeded to run into the extra dakka those Orks had called for to break the siege, and the 2 fleets then proceeded to basically pulverize eachother, as well as any kind of long-range communication to the wider galaxy.
So now the 119th protects this secluded world from a never-ending Ork infestation, utilizing their men and their armor as their anvil, Valkyrie gunships as their hammer, the omnisiah-blessed walls of New Theelia, the only city on the planet, as their shield, and an elite corps of horse-mounted scouts as their eyes and ears.
Every month or 2 they must send out a large expedition to keep the Greenskins' numbers down enough so they don't overrun them. Orks can be deceptively cunning, as was shown when a particularly crafty warboss took control during one expedition and nearly toppled the walls of New Theelia; but they must always be vigilent not just for Orks, for there are other threats which could fall upon their little world, as well as opportunities...
I've got a couple of homebrew regiments in the works. My most fleshed out is the 412th Gilreth Graywatch, decked out in gray and blue who are descended from a Cadian regiment that was stranded on a Knight world. They often work in tandem with Imperial Knights, and train their soldiers on an ork infested moon, practically farming greenskins to slaughter, similarly to your regiment. They rose to fame after putting down a rogue knight house with aid from House Dallin
@@alexanderthegreat6682 ah, nice idea. I went for more of *shrugs* "welp I guess we're here now" approach, and more put into a bit more laid back situation so I don't have to worry about the unit being wiped out in some random far-flung battle on a forgotten rock
@@kostakatsoulis2922 yeah, in this case the orks came to them, but since you can't really get rid of orks the Guard just went "welp guess they're here"
@@alexanderthegreat6682 something like that, yeah. I just imagine the guardsmen looking up and watching as the last Imperial cruiser falls out of the sky, entangled with what little remains of an Ork... uh... do they even have ship classes? Whatever, anyways, they see that and then one just goes:
"Welp, I guess we love here now."
*Smack* "Ow!"
"Not. The time."
@@kostakatsoulis2922 in the case of the 412th they were sent to stop an Ork attack, but by the end the Munitorum decided it wasn't worth retrieving what was left, so they rebuilt and established a new regiment
The easy way to destroy the monuments is to set all of your basilisks to bomb one monument, then use another part of your army to attack another one. Either she gets thrown around by the arty's knockback and or the arty gets to destroy a monument while you kite her with your army.
i remember the fisaco last time with you missing "these shrines will grant us.... immortality", then again i can't speak because i did the same thing
I will admit I never really figured out how to destroy the shrines. I would always just bumrush their HQ and win that way
how many guardsmen died to the AOE of the massive plasma cannon
According to the inquisition there was no plasma cannon, it was simply a freak accident from a psyker nearby spontaneously exploding because... Chaos.
REJECTTTTT RANGED COMBATTT, FACEEEE MEEEE ON GLORIOUS MELEEEEE - basically every khornite demon
When i was playing this mission i couldn't figure out the deal with the statues so i just fell back, dug in, and nuked em off the map
As a guy who played Air Cav guard on the tabletop flamers are surprisingly good at anti air
It's a weird quirk of the rules isn't it? Our gaming group used to homerule that flamer-type weapons targeting flyers only hit on 6+.
Shack, one 'BUG' with Dawn of war 1m, was that the commanders field army was not always removed from the map once the HQ was destroyed. meaning that the last teritory the fraction held was efectivly uncapturalbe.espeshaly late game.
Did he just say "We will screw them silly" to sisters of battle? .... Ummmm ...... Understandable sir, have a good day.
Really great mod this one. Love it!
Alright! I've been looking forward to this video for over a week! Thank you, captain!
So glad that there is a new dawn of war video. Keep up the good work Shack
Can't WAIT for the Darktide!!
Here is a scary though : Can you deepstrike a baneblade ?
LET IT RIP
If it is following UA rules. Yes. Yes you can. You have to for the really big baneblade
In mod you can in 2 ways - directly from Martian command center if select Air Support doctrine in Doctrine command. Or you just shove it into Valkyrie transport. Needs a bit of wiggling to stuff it in tho...
I don't know about this mod specifically, but in old UA the Imperial Guard were the only faction that could air drop literally 100% of their unit cap. Infantry, armour, and relic units alike. It was a favourite surprise tactic of mine in multiplayer, if my enemy ever tried to turtle up and gave me time to do so. Was always hilarious to get the reactions, when four or more baneblades and anti-structure tanks, plus Kaskrin with demo charges, dropped down behind their defences and flattened their base in a matter of seconds.
this was just perfect man! thanks for showing us this :D hope you conquer the entire system!
yeah 10 unit cap on conscripts but they are free. They are brilliant and exactly what the Imperial guard need. They can cap, they can be target practice for a commissar, they can be a delaying or holding force, or you can just garrison them to give buildings an attack.
This games acutally amazing please post more of it! 🔥🙏
Godamnit guardsman for the last time, I'M NOT COLD!
Always love watching you play the Best Warhammer 40k faction
So the bunker thing is a base game thing where each unit added to the bunker adds more weapons, it doesn't matter what is added either one commissar is equal to a full squad of guardsman
The way to take out the statues is to attack them with flying units (bombers) which Celeste (the living saint) can't get at.
lol If all of those conscripts really were carrying lascannons, they would be doing a lot better.
So.... This is Dawn of War Crucible mod look like? Hmm.... Interesting
I love this lets play pure fun!
Why? Because 40k is just contrary like that Shack. It's okay, you have bombs.
And tanks!
And artillery!
Captain Shack hero of the imperium
Build all the Baneblades and punch them right in the face. Great vid btw.
Great video and a great mods but question why not do a modded morrowind Playthrough or at least another skyrim one once one of your current series is complete of course
Captain Shack you should do more Empire at War mod videos I love those videos.
Actually your bass can be taken and also enemy bass in the standard base game it’s not mod in at all
Need to play this again i some days
What mod are you using that allows you to zoom out that far?
Its not built into crucible?
@@ryandrost9589 It is built into Crucible. Gets very foggy if you try to scroll out a bit. Not sure if there is a fix for the fog or not.
@@fubanuba2827 You can disable the fog if you use the DOW mod manager in the advanced start options.
@@fivethree87 Thanks for letting me know. Looks amazing with the no fog .
Me for imperial also me in head for chaos on top of my private beyblade
you built the nuclear building but forgot to deploy a nuke :(
Wait so what you are saying is you can deep strike a bane blade on top of the enemy
i love this mod so much
Does the campaign keep buildings you build during missions?
OG soulstorm? no. Don't know about modded though. Was a real pain compared to Dark Crusade
@@ryandrost9589 i agree fully with your statement really hated starting all over on a map I already won.
writing this here for the engagement, i will watch this but not right now or today i can only watch so much shack a day and im still going through all the mod all the things backlog i got.
So can anyone point out where I can get this mod plus which Dawn of war game it works on
Soulstorm i think
this mission is fun with tau. 5 Barracudas are OP
do the sisters in this mod get some of the new units gw has added to their roster? pargon war suits, castervaters, novies that kind of thing?
BY THE EMPEROR WE WILL HAVE IT!
I love the crucible mod, but I hate that the game crashes on me every time a fight finishes
Finally some fucking good game.
I miss this game but this mod just doesn't work for me :(
When will you finish fall of the Republic?
That campaign was basically over. We will do a transition episode to a new series eventually moving into the Galactic Civil War.
@@CaptainShack and then Thrawn's Revenge?
@@CaptainShack thank you for the update
1:31:20 The All Guardsman Party, hidden boss
This campaign is epic...purge the Heretic Shack.
is it me or did the IA built only non-UA units? i mean, granted i didn't even see a single Act of Faith used in the whole match , so they are also misusing what they already had, but it would seem they didn't build anything new eiither. They have new planes that can rip tanks apart. a mobile fortress, sixty shades of living saints, and they didn't even produce missionaries for their squads. is the stronghold ia forced to use old units, or maybe it hasn't been updated yet?
The devs probably havnt touched the HQ missions. As shack said, they're heavily scripted. Probably didn't want to touch already spectacular set piece missions.
We'll be sorting the AI to be building the units in the not too distant future
Hey xpgamer is it possible you could help me with a good mod setup for fallout 3 and new Vegas tale of two wastelands
In DoW dose having the corpses stay on the map affect performance ?
Yes, but it's an old game with low poly models, so it handles it very well so long as your PC isn't too old. (And can adjust in settings if it's an issue)
Zerg rush, but it's Warhammer.
Nid rush, the original zerg rush
Is the Admech a playable faction in this mod?
No
They're in unification mod, but not in this mod no.
"That's why I love the Guard. Cause they're just dudes, with the whole universe stacked against them..." Shack...you know the Guard is, on it's best day, a stalling force for the Astartes to show up and win the day...right? I mean, not to utterly insult and horribly demean the Guard (that is totally what I am doing, Space Marines forever) but more often then not they are pretty much told to just go die while Command waits for the real warriors to show up.
Is this UA?
It is the Crucible mod.
I can never get this game to run how tf are u playing
I honestly recommend using the DoW mod manager
Come on the Discord server and we'll help you get things working. Or look up the UA-cam tutorials. They're very in depth.
= D
Why is he always be lazy to upgrade tech and building even when he's got the resource for it then he complain the troops is too weak or something
Shack has always been more of an emotive RTS player than an analytical one. He loves the feel and the fluff, playing a mission like a roleplay. Which is awesome, and something I honestly like to do as well if possible. The part he doesn't give as much attention to is learning/understanding the exact crunch and mechanics of the game. Gets carried away in living the moment I guess.
There's lots of moments where he'd benefit from paying a little more attention to his actions, such as the very beginning where he was spamming squads of six conscripts and letting them die instantly for 50 resource a pop, massively draining his resources, whilst not seeming to notice that replenishing a soldier costs only 1 resource. Meaning that ever sending a squad without filling it up first, is just a dire waste.
@@UnknownSquid
ah RP player
@@UnknownSquid This and also it can be hard at times to keep track of everything.
Not only that, but he has an audience to entertain.
As well he forgets to repair tanks right behind a builder, or send and forget troops (in other games as well, then complaining where are they? followed by why they died?)
umm ''excuse me this is a family show'' ...while playing 40 k anything ? XD that was good joke... be like someone switching on porn and being surprised it invovles bobs and pernuses ^^
but true...despite how i loath the unit limits smacking you in the face and often tiny maps for this..... with a mod like this and the basics from the source game... i am more tempted to buy a dawn of war 1 copy ,then that new star ship troppers... wich is so fking sad! ..it was a ip that since not super much been made for it i hopped it be one used to give a good new rts game...but what i seen of it just makes me feel ''giant demo'' so far :/
edit: and ye..agree with him.. having something arbitrary diminish just to force janitor work of the player/commander is a big down point for me to aka the power generators ;)
In one minute you got bullied by a bunch of girls.^^
If the IG are normal dudes, the sisters of batlle are just normal women, none of them are enhanced. Which makes them as impressive as th IG.
True and their faith gives them superpowers which is you know.. Cool
"Normal" women who all wear power armor and have faith based powers. So not as impressive as IG, but perhaps more badass.
@@simenhartford7206 IG also has "power armor" (but yeah no faith related power, because they are faithless heretics. It only depends on them to believe enough for the Emperor to grant them blessings... ^^)
@@etienne8110 True but power armor is really rare in Imperial Guard, usually only see high-ranking commanders wear it. In SoB everyone has it except for medics. Big difference.
@@simenhartford7206 IG makes up for it in ogryn troops or with artillery and mechanized units.
I'm curious as to how they explain in the lore how the sisters of battle manage to get so many power armors? They are quite costly to make thus the priority given to astartes.
I assume the Thundered’s rate fire is high because of the gun’s position, after firing, the loader can simply roll a new shell into the breach assuming there is something like a spring pushing them into alignment for it. Boom, roll, boom, roll, boom, roll.
Conscripts I view as the lore version of new Imperial Guard regiments. According to pretty consistent lore, a new regiment is not expected to survive its first combat deployment. Which means the career regiments are made up of either the particularly badass survivors or, more likely, the surviving scraps of multiple regiments produced by a planet smooshed together to form a true regiment of bloodied Imperial Guardsmen. Which means most likely new regiments probably have millions of soldiers and the average regiment size of ten thousand is just because new regiments die too quickly to affect the average.
Really puts Hardened Veterans into perspective.
It is so unfair in vanilla that the faction specialized in destroying morale and vehicles starts beside the faction with low moral and heavily reliant on vehicles.
