More Factions.

[Xavi-Da-Imp]

I have a question (if someone already have asked that the please give me an info and delete this topic). Are you guys planing to ad more factions? Like Eldar and Tau from the intro cinematics? Or Chaos Marines, Grey Knights and Space Wolfs - factions from other Armagedon Wars?

I think they will be releasing other campaigns. In their other wargames, they leave the armies to the historical realities. Likely won't release factions until they have a full campaign to go with. Slitherine's scenario building is top notch. I doubt they will just add a faction for skirmish or mp without an accompanying full campaign. Obviously someone from the devs would better answer.

They said in another thread that they have the rights for the wars of Armageddon only. So without doubt Chaos will be made at some point. Probably Space Wolves and Grey Knights. Maybe Black Templars? As for Tau, Eldar, Tyranids, and so on, I don't think they've ever been a big part/any part of the Armageddon wars, so sadly they seem unlikely.

Chaos and squat could definatly be new factions, but honestly if they could get the right to release the campaign for maccrage and introduce the tyrannids i would be more than pleased.

Daemons lords. That would awesome.

For me either a random world in the Third Shpere expansion by Tau or the Damocles Gulf Crusade I would love. The Damocles Crusade was ended by the Tyranid threat interfering, so its possible to have a multiworld campaign that begins with an offense vs tau and ends with a defense vs nids.

The Damocles Crusade actually predated Maccrage directly iirc, with the crusade being pulled back to fight the nids after getting bogged down.

Whatever way they do it will not matter much though, I enjoy the game already.

This is probably my chief concern for this game. I really am having fun with it but I would LOVE more armies with different playstyles.

Army Variaties would be a massive improvement to this title.

Squat?I think hell will freeze over before we get them in the game.To GW,introducing the Squat was the biggest mistake and embarrassment of their lives that they made all efforts to erase any traces of it,even going to the extent of saying that they never existed and banning anyone who mentions it on their forums..Yes,that is how much they hate the Squat.If Slitherine were to put them in,I think GW will unleash hell on them.

Actually, they've been listed as a legitimate abhuman subspecies since 6th edition. They very much do still exit in canon, it's just that their homeworld got in the way of a hivefleet.

Well, the game takes place during the Second War for Armageddon which was just Imperials vs Orks. If you want more factions they would have to go with different conflicts in different areas of the galaxy. Would be interesting to see in future updates/expansions though.
