<div class="IPBDescription">Natural Selection meets Warhammer 40K. [IDEA]</div>I have the simple idea of a gamemode SpaceMarine VS Tryanids. The idea is simple have 3 types of units for SpaceMarine side and 5ish for the Tryanids.
The idea could start off by simply making new models for the Marine class and the same for the Kharaa side.

Then 3 types of spaceMarines could come into play.
-Scout, Fast runner with a pistol sword. Great class for securing zones at the start of a game though has weak armour and can die in a few bites.
-SpaceMarine, Strong Armour which can withstand many bites. Weapon - slow fire rate though is very effective against Tyrainds and will cause small splash damage. The bolter will be less effective against the structures and melee weapons will be more effective at taking out the structures.
-JumpPack Marine, Moderate armour, fast moving though weapon consists of a chainsword and a weak pistol. These would be useful early and late game as capturing points early game and pushing Tryanids base late game.

The 5 types of Tyranid. (These are VERY similar to Kharaa classes because... well they are.)
- Simple reskin of Onos to Dominatrix - This is literally the equivalent.
- Simple reskin of Fade to Carnifex or Lictor or even a Hormagaunt
- Simple reskin of Lerk to Harpy or Gargoyle
- First real change - The equivalent of a Gorge though with the power to tunnel for a short period of time (5.5 Seconds away or to combat) with a skin of a Viragon
- Eggs would be replaced by Cortex Leech which by standing near/on infestation or by a hive you could can select the class. When the player is a Cortex Leech, the player is allowed to move around and grab SpaceMarines faces/masks and stun the marine for a short period. This will be effective early game to stop scouts capturing points and late game to stun Marines while a Carnifex rips off a Marines head.

I will expand on this forum if people like the idea so far. I am a massive fan of the Warhammer 40k world and I know many other players are. Help get this idea get to modders or devs out there who would be willing to help create this mod.

    chaos vs imperium would be cool. Start out as imperial guard / cultists and upgrade your way through to daemon princes/chaos lords and grey knights and dreadnaughts and ######.
