Question : 3 sides

Ok this may perhaps be the most stupid question ever, incredibly noobish, but how do I play the 3rd faction, if a mod has a third faction.

For instance in 'Epic Legions' the Warhammer 40k esque mod there are 3 factions 'supposedly'.

1. Space Marine
2. Tau
3. Imperials

I don't know if this is just me being silly, maybe the imperials have been added onto one of the other races but I can't find them, and on the Unknown-files.net link there is a imperial trooper in one of the pictures. :shock:

Any help that anyone can give me will be gratefully recieved.

Thanks in advance. :-)

You select them in the dropdown box in the lobby. If they aren't there it's possible that the mod hasn't made the faction official yet.

Or use Android's Spring Single Player Launcher for single-player games.

Yeah I tried to do that but its just the Space Marines and Tau that you can choose. :(

Er whats androids single player launcher, I have a single player 'SpringSP' launcher type thing.

Version 0.8 if it helps, but is the android one a different one?

If so could I have a link to it. :-)

Please...

Currently Epic Legions only has two sides. Space Marines are the only complete one. Imperial Guard aren't selectable.

Ah okie.

Thanks for letting me know, the imperial guard looked interesting in unknown-files pictures, thats the main reason I wanted to playe them.

The reason you cannot select a third side is because I set it to two only. The Imperial Guard lack a commander unit and a number of important buildings, so I disabled them

The Chaos Marines have a number of bugs, so I had to disable those whilst I fix them.

Eldar and Tyranids only have one unit ingame each (so far), so I didn't see the point of enabling them

EDIT: If you really want to mess around with the 'hidden' sides type this ingame:

.cheat
.give IG_inftent (For Imperial Guard - you can't build the tanks, aircraft or artillery from this though, just infantry. You'd have to find their unit names and .give them directly)
.give KH_commarine (For Khornate Chaos Space Marines)
.give NG_marinesarge (For Nurgle Marines)
.give TY_hormogaunt (For the only Tyranid unit ingame - actually a melee test)
.give EL_guard_sc (For the only Eldar unit ingame thus far)
.give egg (*whistles innocently*)
