The Cuberor’s Finest

=== CUBERIAL ORDER ===

Heretical movements have been reported inside our holy land. These heretics call themselves the Spheratists and believe that the stupid masses of the people can rule us better than The Cuberor can. Cubemander, you have been assigned to cleanse the face of our Earth and purge the Spheratist movement!

Spheratists are easily identified, they proudly reverse the light and dark of their core and shell! The very thought of this madness defiles our land. Our forces can eliminate them with our guns and grenades, the Spheratists are inept fighters who cowardly hide in their numbers. Most of them are weak little boys who can barely handle a gun and are completely overwhelmed with the concept of grenades, only a small number of specialists have joined their ranks. Be careful however, these specialists used to be men of the Cubire before their minds fell victim to the madness and they wield heavy weapons, long range suppression grenades that prevent our men from using their guns and burner blasters that can even penetrate the hard shell of our armor. All your troops are equally capable but some of them are equipped with jetpacks or heavy armor that will greatly reduce the impact of small arms.

Our logistics are superior to theirs, we can field reinforcements quicker but capturing points will still allow our men to enter the battlefield faster. The enemy relies more on the points, being unable to transport his forces without them.

Reinforcements will consist of one squad of every type until your allocated maximum (4 grunts, 3 jumpers, 3 armors) as well as any lost men in existing squads. Be aware that The Cuberor does not tolerate losing too many men against a weak enemy like this and squads that were eliminated completely will not be replaced immediately and you will have to wait for a new squad via the normal means. Our agents tell us that the enemy will field large numbers of Recruits (up to seven platoons) with small numbers of grenadiers (3) and burners (2) to aid them. Any troop engaged in grenade combat cannot use its regular guns and Spheratist recruits have nothing else to their name, they are no threat in close combat.

Eliminate the enemy headquarters building to quell this heresy once and for all!

GLORY TO THE CUBEROR!

I had a concept for a fairly simple mod, decided to implement a prototype with geometric shapes instead of proper models, played too much DoW2 and came up with a story for the shapes so I think I’ll keep them. It’s still not playtested though.

I was surprised how fast and easy it is to check every metalmap pixel to find the spots, considering how much time IW starts used sometimes I was expecting much more wasted time.
