Description:
This (I believe) is the Warriors of Mars Beta MOD. - I can't say much about it due to no screenshots not much in the readme, so I'll leave the opinions up to you Fans, however going from the news articles, and such, this should be a neat little package

README:
Warriors of Mars Mod v1.0
Bringing the Adeptus Mechanicus to Dawn of War!
MOD INSTALLATION:
Extract file and place contents in Dawn of War folder. (usually C://Program Files/THQ/Dawn of War)
This mod currently contains no new models. It is code only.
MAP INSTALLATION:
This mod comes with several maps, to install them, place the "adeptus_mechanicus_maps.zip" file in C://Program Files/THQ/Dawn of War/WXP/Data/Scenarios/MP (If using default) and extract the file.
Unofrtunatly, i had to rush them into finishing the maps. So these are mostly WIP.
BALANCE & BUGS:
This mod is probably extremely unbalanced and bug-ridden. Which is why YOU are going to beta test it for us!
If anyone discovers any bugs, has any balance suggestions, etc. We would be most grateful if you could post something in this forum:

seems cool.....
and oh ya 1st post! rock on!
fohammer out.....
 
Well no screenies and the readme sucks. I dont know if ill even bother downloading
same as what he said, i dont think im gonna even try to download this file. i mean, no screenshots or readmes, i dont think ill waste my time.
well there is a map in there might be worth tryin out 
I mad most of the maps, and this game is SO worth D-loading. we didnt have any pics because we couldnt show you anything cool, no new models or buildings. just D-load, you wont regreat it.
so there are no models in the game,it is bug ridden and unbalenced, and it has no screenies to try and prove there's something good in it, why should i download it?? 
are you just not willing to risk something going wrong with your PC to find the bugs yourselves
i wish u ppl wud stop badmouthing it without even playing it, stop *****ing and try it. its probably pretty good, if everything wasnt over advertised you wouldnt dl that either. and im sure uv played some good mods?
we have no screenshots due to the fact that we havn't put the new models in yet .The readme says what it needs to and lastly people like 2,3 and 6 bad mouthing it without trying just make it not worth the time and effort. U wanna bad mouth it fine but play it first instead of saying "no screenies = *****" the mod is balanced aswell as we thought we could make it thats why we are lettign the public help us beta test so we can get an un biast view from them (in theorie).
(Wwe are aware of a slight bug where certain unit descriptions/names don't appaear we experienced this alot and the coder has done his best but when one name was fixed another broke we are still trying to work it out)
ummm...
my report on the mod:
well the maps... i like there good ill give them a 7/10
but the mod.. is nothink special.. no new models etc but you have remaned just about everythink you could which kl... but they dont really get any tanks!! apart form the titan which isn't that good really
on the the bugs... where to start well there are no fx on any of the guns.... erm also for some reason nothink seems to be able to shot at on of the units....
other issues... everythink was way to powerful apart from the titan.. i mean the basic squad took down a ork base on its won.. and didnt even loose a member
the commanders are *****!! they suck!
overall i would give the mod a 6/10.. needs alot more work
Ya, the gun FX will always be missing, unable to fix that until we get the new models ingame.
Thanks for the suggestions, nerf Inf, power-up Cmmdrs and add more tanks!
yay its the tyranid mod all over.....just finish the bloody mod, put the models in and everything.....this is utter ****. I don't want to play a mod that just rearranges build orders and tech trees with different names with the same models, nobody does, just stop releasing betas that have NOTHING in them, **** ***** you people are moronic.
Then don't play it, and shut up about it. You've got an opinion, use it, but try to have some decency and manners too. If this mod isn't your style, fine, move on. The community owes a bad-mouthing, undeserving person like you nothing, so show a little respect to the people who are trying to make the game all it can be.
-Files Staff
We just want to know what you think needs balancing. Then we will retreat into our shell for a couple of months and emerge with a fully complete mod.
Yes so don't come out with this moron ***** the fact iof the matter is this is a public TEST no point working our asses off for it to be imba and have to go back sort through all the coding and fix it. The mod will add new models just not yet
no pics, no new models=no download
I agree exactly with #11, its just like the tyranid mod, just taking old models and changing their names and stats and saying they're a completely different race, and the maps are only half decent
I get so sick of you people. You expect mods to be done with a clap of the hands. They take time to do, and making models isn't even half the battle, contrary to popular belief. What's the point in having a few shiny models if the mod itself is crap? I'm not saying that models are completely pointless, but beta testing and feedback from the people who are actually going to be playing the mod helps shape it into something better. You're complaining about the fact you have the chance to make a mod better. And even if a mod takes ages, such as the Tyranid mod, there's nothing forcing these people to do the mods. You should be grateful for the fact they're doing it at all.
Thank you #16 thank you for using your god given braina dn common sense. Now then the fact of the matter is we changed units as subs nothing mroe and we arn't saying it's finnished this is so you can make the mod better you are the guys playing it you should have a say in how powerful it is.
We are getitgn down to the tough grind and are aiming to have it relased before mid august if possible
I don't expect mods with the clap of the hands, I do expect though, is that the modder team takes time to actually FINISH the damn thing before releasing it bit by bit, do major game designers do that? did they release hl2 mission by mission, with no textured models? no! because nobody would get it, which is the same situation, take the time to make a proper mod, yes you may want to balance it, ASK FOR BETA TESTERS! you'll just make the community go ' o great theres another mass hype episode about a small feature of the wom being released'. take your time, do your best, THEN release it and get the attention and respect it deservees, I am undoubtedly sure this will be very good, but this whole releasing tid bits totally ruins it and just gets tedious.
Microsoft do beta groups they higher people off the street to test thier games so this is same principal we introducwe our beta or "demo" for the public to test and tell us what they think need fixing while we get on to the models and animations,voices,textures,campain,maps
As for people who hate this mod, have you ever done modding yourself? You have exactly no idea how hard modding can be. Even editing LUAs is tedious enough. These guys need to make models so shut yer traps ok?
And as they said, this is a PUBLIC BETA TEST. What do you expect out of a BETA test. They also said that there will be NO MODELS. SO if you don't like it DON'T DOWNLOAD it.
The Omnissiah Protects.
i agree with everyone one, but in the end its upto the modders what they want to do with there time and efforts.
Just keep up the good work, Mars Mod team. 
IronKnight, you may notice that major game designers are payed, and have lots of money. They have access to all the beta testers they could desire. Mods, too, can recruit beta testers for no pay, but they arn't necesserily professionals. Releasing a mod WIP to the public ensures that the mod turns out playable, without needing all the bonuses major game designers possess. Simply asking for beta testers is not always a better alternative.
And as for it being tedious, frankly, if you don't want to download it, you don't even have to so much look at the file's page. You're arguing something that can either be used to help, or ignored completely. Therefore, your argument is pointless.
yeah nice work guys. this will be good with all the models and stuff. keep up the good work looking forward to release
First off thank yopu to those people who are intelligent enough to appreciate what we have done and that it is just a TEST. Secondly you guys whinning about lack of models are just ruining the community so do you see a mod that even says it is just testing and say " you have no new models your mods crap its crap I tell you no point downloading despite the 4 weeks of coding you put into it".
You know what? if this stuff continues people bad mouthing the mod for somthing ti clearly states it won't have for a while then I don't see a purpose in fufiling it and you can all sit there smiling because you forced a mod team tp close down because of your whinning and general idiocy over simply stated facts
what a heated discussion. Lets face it, some people are dont have the bandwidth to download 9mb or dont want to waste their monthly qouta.... if there is no screenshot its a shame... but if you have checked the news of late and seen some of the excellent models being pumped out then you should know this could/may already be an excellent addition to the dawn of war game.
Just remember people. even with screenshots the game could end up being absolute rubbish.... there are plenty of games out on the market that can prove this. Anyways. In work at the moment, so once i get home i will download and give it a go.
Are there anyplans to allow the use of nightshift in this mod?
I will rate later depending on the outcome....
take it easy people. these guys are doing guys like me a favour as we have no clue about modding. if you spent asmuch time complaining doing your own mod you would see why these things can happen. God knows i have tried many a times trying to mod this game. got some working but never thought of sending anything here. .....
well we mgiht be depends on if the rest of the team agree and thank you for your apreciation andf consideration
i agree that people shouldent judge the mod by how many screenshots it has but you should have made a more ditailed discription of wat pople were downloading. no disrespect to u guys and i hope the mod goes great.
well we thought the readme said all it needed to say no point wasting your bandwidth with useless info that you will find out when you play it
I AGREE WITH THE FILES STAFF. USELESS *****S THAT WANT TO BADMOUTH EVERY UNFINISHED MOD IN ITS BETA PHASES NEED TO BE STRUNG UP. I WONT BE DOWNLOADING IT AND THEREFORE WONT GIVE AN OPINION. I HAVE WORKED ON MODS B4 AND ITS EASIER TO BUILD A SKYSCRAPER OUT OF FEATHERS THAN MAKE A MOD. ON TO THE MODDERS WHO TAKE THIS STICK FROM PEOPLE WHO PROBABLY CANT MOD AND DEEM IT RIGHT TO BADMOUTH PEOPLE WHO CAN. YOU HAVE MY SUPORT.
*steps down from soap box*
ive sed my piece and thats the end of it.
p.s. sorry for the sweraing erly on but it makes me really mad when this sort of thing happens.
quoting the files staff, "Then don't play it, and shut up about it. You've got an opinion, use it, but try to have some decency and manners too. If this mod isn't your style, fine, move on. The community owes a bad-mouthing, undeserving person like you nothing, so show a little respect to the people who are trying to make the game all it can be."
words of intelligence i recon, not philisophical but intelligent.
why do people come out with comments like
yay its the tyranid mod all over.....just finish the bloody mod, put the models in and everything.....this is utter ****. I don't want to play a mod that just rearranges build orders and tech trees with different names with the same models, nobody does, just stop releasing betas that have NOTHING in them, **** ***** you people are moronic.
you people make me sick have respect for modders......without them dow wudnt exist in the first place. 
great mod
i agree with #9 cos this is a mechanicus mod, so it needs more tanks.
also the titan was grossly underpowered.
to the modders
i look forward to seeing it finished with models.
yea we were going to have more tanks originally but they were filtered out due to the fact they wree too like existing vehicles the fact of the matter is that there isn't alot of information about mechanicus armies so we went on a wing and a prayer with the tanks
I havent ried it can someone tell me if its good 
I am a little dissapointed in the lack of models but I understand the hard work involved in modmaking. I still think the mod shows a lot of potential and look foward to a more finished version.
And try not to mind those mean types, they are just spoiled
#34, the point of this is YOU try it and tell US if its good, which by the way, it is.
niice, but some ofthe units are kinda *****ty. Needs more tanks tho
BTW - if this is theoutcomeof a BETA test for this mod,ill have to stuffsome models in MINE!
haha well yes we are looking into more mechanitation but the fact of the matter is there is relitivly little if any information on tanks used exclusivly by the AM
Actually, I have to congratulate you. The sheer lack of any sort of fluff or information on the army of the Adeptus Mechanicus means doing a mod on it is an extremely difficult task. Although, I would think that some of the more rare of tanks from the Steel Legion mod would be appopriate, as rare tanks would be something to expect from such a machine-orientated army.
Ya, we've just thought of a load of tanks which we are going to incorperate into the mod.

i have just layed the mod on skirmish on crozius arcanium and it came up with fatal scar error.....i thought this maybe localized to just that map so i tried all the others and they work fine. basically there is a bug with the skirmish crozius arcanium.
thx 4 the great mod
warlordric a.k.a the bug finder over. #END TRANSMISSION#

sorry bout that double post...comp crashed
ok we will look into this though it would have been quicker for you to post on our forum anyway we got as much of the fluff together as we could but the lack of any vehicle fluff made it near impossible all we could find was information about troops or infantry such as gland warriors,servitors,chrono gladiators and skittari wee also did well with the H-grade
does the mod have or is it likely to have robot maniples and imperial jet bikes ?
We've had numerous argume... I mean discussions about hover vehicles, but we belive they would get rid of the Ad Mech's main weakness: lack of speed
We may incude Robot Maniples at a later date.
you could try the different varients of the baneblade and the titans class size
this bothers the **** out of me!!!!!!
people expect the mod to just come from out of nowhere perfect. This isn't the case and modders have to put alot of work into making it good in the first place so those who are complaining and whining about "bad mod" and it being a "repeat of nid's mod" can go shove it for all i care.
Great mod i expect to see a pretty cool mod develop in the future!
The Wacky Marmot has Spoken!!!!!!
P.S. Completly ignore the bad mouthers who have no decency and continue mking your mod! I'm sure it will be good.
Begin Quote:"yay its the tyranid mod all over".End Quote.
You mean.....It adds a different strategy to the game,makes the game funner,and allows more people to enjoy a different aspect of the game?Or do you mean it just hasn't got models in it,and no models=sucks?I'm getting mixed mesages here....
I'm just downloading the file now,then I'm testing it.Really,they should put a review option here to help modders with what is wrong/right with the mod.
Thought for the day:Mercy is a sign of weakness.
These people are just lousy b*tchs that think hey, im not gonna DL it , or even play, but let me b*tch about how it sucks and the modders need to roll up and die. The fact of the matter is that modding is a pain in the *ss and takes LOTS and LOTS of time to even get to the finished, superb product. They didn't put models in it so that they had less work to do so that in later betas, they could. BETA testing is for U to play it before it comes out so U can give constructive criticism, b*tch about it. Other than that good job, keep up the good work guys.
Innocence Proves Nothing.
To everyone who complained about lack of models:
Get a life. Why dont you make a mod? How about making a completly different race by yourself in 4 weeks, then i bet you wont complain about there being a lack of models in your OWN mod! Go on. Try it. I dare you. What? Too chicken? Or is it that you cannot be bothered to put that much effort? Or are you too dumb too understand the concept of modding?
BTW, nice mod. As other people say, it needs more tanks, but well done
although the mod seems good i'm not going to download until next version probably.... Although I understand mods take time, to me half the experience of a good wargame is visuals, it could be the best mod in the world but have no new models and i would dislike it. Its not anything against you really just I had this experience with the tyranid mod (great mod coming along awseome ) Half the game especially with an army like tyranids is the visuals, Seeing a horde of gribbly spore mines gaunts and stealers being stomped on by theyre allied tyranid warriors who are subsequently loomed over by the great synaptic carnifexes and tyrants not cultists and readnaughts (no offense to ma fave mod). some armies are just really visual reliant adaptus mechanus being one of them; probably cuz its not an official army, but I know that I would be quite disheartened to see an army full of space marine servitors filling in as combat servitors and impiral guard as tech guard and predators as neutrino iraddinator. although im just guessing at what you used and what u used as substitute models im just trying to make a point nothing against you I guess it's acually more a way of telling people who are constantly bad mouthing that the human mind is shallow and al though it can pick out ur awsome coding and tech trees it relies on the five senses sight being the second most distinguished for stimulation (after touch but u wont find much enjoyment in stroking ur cpu... hopefully). any way good job on bringing up an army/ subarmy that almost surely would have been over looked. Oh and about my servitor comment as a shortcut you coul use servitor parts through out several models, especially the arms even if u changed the tool at the end you could use them for quite a few models. Oh and sry but im guessing that u decided to recycle the techpreist model cuz u would have to pretty f***d up not to, no offence. any way sry for ranting but there my freing is 8 minutes worth of nick johnson typing,
you know what even without new models its not a big dea,l mechanis is imperial any way doesnt look too much different... well ya it does but even still im sure you guys put tonnes of work into tech trees and coding and *****, (i tried to code a peice of ***** rpg game once on basic I gave up on level3 out out of 15  ) and thus u deserve a chance, and i'll see if they have a lack of tanks.......
i dislike these people who are always dissin the modders when they are doin a beta. mods are a little more difficult than the snap of the fingers. so work on, inert & crew; i hope it goes well.
p.s. i love the tyranids mod
i agree with everyone saying complainers are f*ckmouthed losers who...argh you get the point.
but anyway, lets stop ranting about complainers, the last complaint happened like 30 posts ago, lets just talk about the mod
i totaly support this mod and i think its gona be great
f*ckmouthed losers.....
inert i'm not an expert but to make people downloading it you need...
1. a good readme.
2. not an game that makes you win every thing with only one squad.
3. A bit more sence.
Emerge in the darkness and build up yur mod u mods movie eldar and movie marine are exelent i love those but this one... hm....
Everyones unknown pal Mattelus
You know guys theres a reason it says "beta" on the header!!!
wowowowwowoowowow w8w8w8w8w8w8w8 did some one say titan? 0_0
I am totaly behind #30 and everything he says...... YOU!
look on relic forums, theres a mod there "forgot the name of it" in creation that has a fully working titan army compleate with weapon servitors, ones that use bolters, plasma canons, and close combat variants. and the warhound titan the reaver titan and the warlord titan "whole bunch of classes for the warhound aswell as better animations and working graphics". it would be a good idea to ask them for help as doing all this work after it has already been done would be a crushing blow im sure. im not saying to steal there work i merly say to ask them for help with yours as most of the research done on mars was on titans and bad **** tanks from what i gather.
