Warhammer - Reign of Terror







Overview



Adorned by his servants the Lord of The End Times Archaon marched outward from the northern wastes, bearing with him an army that shook the Old World as its footsteps grew ever closer. The Empire already weakened by years of war with the Greenskins, and countless incursions by lesser factions of Chaos, were unprepared for the hail of destruction that would engulf them in the coming months of Archaon's conquest. This map does not chronicle the war between the three factions, but allows you to play as one of them on a map of your choice existing in Warhammer lore, in a control-point based RTS.







♦Factions


●Forces of Chaos

●The Empire

●Greenskins






♦Maps


Chaos Wastes



The Northern Wastes, sometimes referred to as the Chaos Wastes, is an area far north of the Old World mutated by chaos energies emanating from a gateway to the Empryean, or The Warp. Even the Emperor's bravest men would bear hesitation when ordered there.












Sylvania



Not far from the Old World, only three-hundred or so kilometers resides Sylvania, a province of the Dark Lands, renowned for its most famous inhabitants, the Carstein bloodline of Vampires. Even before Carsteins flocked to Sylvania, it was haunted by the aberrations created there thousands of years ago.

Update: Map screens added.

It's only for artillery, rifles carried by the Empire Handgunners will be instant-type missiles, and it will not perform friendly fire, so test it on the capturable points.

Let me know if you want to test it with me, I need to snag some gameplay pics.

when i get some free time for it i'll give you a match, atm i have uni work wrapping up so i might wait until that's over :3

i just checked out the chaos race (and the orcs and humans, to find that upon exiting warcraft 3 you informed me that those races aren't working :P), artillery doesn't seem to work and i'm unsure if you're meant to be able to get all the chaos lord upgrade things. alsooooo there's a LOT of blunt attack :3

i liked the 'irregular militia' thing, seems like instant win atm :3

Chaos Lord upgrades?

And artillery should be working? I'll test it myself right now, and fix it if it's not, and immediately update.

Edit: Okay, fixing the artillery, added 3 wargear items, fixed a major bug with the Slaaneshi Warmount upgrade. Update incoming.

[Wazzz]

ah cool :3

umm... not upgrades for the Chaos Lord, but the upgrades for Slannesh, Tzenetch, Khorne and Nurgle, are you meant to be able to get all of them or are you meant to choose only one?

Only one, I can't figure out a way to lock them once they are used. The standard trigger doesn't work. Max research level 0 returns nothing, since 0 is automatically 1. :\

I'm working out the glitch with the artillery right now... The upgrades are going to take some looking into. Next update will have working artillery, and Combat Drugs, Slaaneshi Warmounts, and Firebombs, will all be glitch fixed.

Update: 3.3a is now available, both artillery pieces are working. 3.4a will hopefully feature a fix for the upgrades, and the start of The Empire, along with an early wip of a 4 player snow map, much smaller than Tropical Plateau. The only known, major glitch, that I am also working on aside from the upgrades, is the reinforce system, it doesn't seem to work right, the reinforced units are out of their squad, I will hopefully fix this by 3.4a as well.

I'll try to have The Empire fully playable by the end of this month. At that point it should be a full-fledged beta.
