What is the difference between chaos marine bolter and nurgle marine bolter? I mean in game mechanic. New weapon damage type? More shots?
Also you can add health regeneration feature like Ghouls from xPiratez, just for lulz and foe the glory of the dark gods!

mostly new damage type, i will use acid for once
health regeneration is a good idea i try to see how its done

Bug Report: listOrder in the codex is all wrong, I was viewing stormhawk then when I clicked next, it showed me the guard armor, then clicking next again, it showed me the thundrrhawk
Just tested, mine is perfectly ordered , maybe some other mod crossover active.

How many Acid Damage Type weapons you plan add to the mod? If it's just the plague marine bolter then it's not worth it. If you want to make more Nurgle weapons or early game cultits weapons (maybe tyranids in future?) and make acid resistance armor then it's a good choice. I mean new damage weapon type worth it on;y if you plan make some armor weaks to it and some strong.

Main feature of Nurgle(acid?) weapons can be damage to health/morale/stun before calculating armor resistance (I guess that how Wille Pete grenade from xPiratez works?). It makes this weapon effective against any sort of armor, but not leathal. Also it will require some thing to restore morale of troops, and Battle Standart can fill that role. Also acid ammo for loyalist bolters, to make bolter even better then they are now.

Nurgle units - Plague Marine (Nurgle bolter and a lot of blight grenades), Plague marine Havoc (special weapons like plasmagun, melta gun, etc. or Nurgle Special Weapons - blight greande launcher, plague spewer(rapid fire acid shotgun or flame thrower)), Plague Marine Champion(with melee options), Chosen of Nurgle (2 stage unit  - first shooty, second melee, works like xPirates ZombieTrooper). Nurgle deamons. Nurgle tank with direct fire plague spewer and indirect fire mortar.

well like i promised, here are the rubric marines and all their might !

1 How many Acid Damage Type weapons you plan add to the mod? If it's just the plague marine bolter then it's not worth it. If you want to make more Nurgle weapons or early game cultits weapons (maybe tyranids in future?) and make acid resistance armor then it's a good choice. I mean new damage weapon type worth it on;y if you plan make some armor weaks to it and some strong.

2 Main feature of Nurgle(acid?) weapons can be damage to health/morale/stun before calculating armor resistance (I guess that how Wille Pete grenade from xPiratez works?). It makes this weapon effective against any sort of armor, but not leathal. Also it will require some thing to restore morale of troops, and Battle Standart can fill that role. Also acid ammo for loyalist bolters, to make bolter even better then they are now.

3 Nurgle units - Plague Marine (Nurgle bolter and a lot of blight grenades), Plague marine Havoc (special weapons like plasmagun, melta gun, etc. or Nurgle Special Weapons - blight greande launcher, plague spewer(rapid fire acid shotgun or flame thrower)), Plague Marine Champion(with melee options), Chosen of Nurgle (2 stage unit  - first shooty, second melee, works like xPirates ZombieTrooper). Nurgle deamons. Nurgle tank with direct fire plague spewer and indirect fire mortar.

1. i guess, i will make their bolt´s cause more wound " so it looks like a infections" also i can´t complicate much since i´m always doing lot of new stuff and not even testing much

2. the ways it goes is melta for shred armor , lasguns for vehicles , plasma for units , grav ignore armor, bolter wildcard(does all), flames and explosion good vs 2x2 and large areas, meele low cost tu but high damage, the one open is acid (witch i havent done yet so is 100% to all ) but i guess will add lots of wounds to the factor ( i love the heavy rocket gas idea for nurgle btw and couting as acid)
tzech will have lots of flamers (as terrorist and also i will give then  standard flame weapons)

3. Plague marine Havoc is a execelent idea , maybe next to project is to create havoc's for special heavy weapons for nurgle/ individed/ tzench , also liked the rest, but give me time i go with the flow

Looks awesome, loving the divided look, your sprites are great. Have you ever considered using the Deathwatch as your protagonists? They're kind of the Xcom of 40k imo, shoot at least 3 different aliens a day lol. Though they're all outsourced sm-veterans so there'd be little soldier progression lol.

I'll have to give the mod a go later tonight.

Wait that's a traitor marine? It looks almost exactly like smurfs

tzech will have lots of flamers (as terrorist and also i will give then  standard flame weapons)
but lorewise tzeench marines are known for their resistance to small arms firem becouse they are just walking armors, and for their armor piercing inferno bolts. (in 7th edition they have ap3, so technicaly penetrates marine's armor)
so I suggest high resistance to armor piercing damage type (like mutons in original Xcom) and some resistance for other damage types

Also would you add some specialization to the auxillary units? like high psionic resistance to adeptus soritas (and make them useful against enemies with psionic powers in late game), and armor type with build-in heavy weapons for guard units (for heavy weapon support in early game)

Bug

Was the unit attempting to do anything (moving, using lift, etc.) when the bug happened?

This bug is completely harmless (many vanilla TFTD maps have the same issue). It denotes a faulty node (probably outside of map's boundaries), and the game ignores such nodes.
Just fix the routes to remove the problem. In some cases it may require doing the .rmp again, though.

True, noticed that playing with new extender version. Also just corrected it , the new extender+ have list order prioritized over sections, so i just reorganized list order in ufopedia

Bug I think, the game freezes after doing a geoscape scan or time lapse in my game, attaching save
