Editing Warhammer 40,000: Chaos Gate

Chaos Gate is the greatest* computer game ever.

<font size=1>'''*"Greatest" assuming you're into really buggy, immersion-driven RPGesque [[X-Com|X-Com'ish]] turn-based grimdark scifi games, that are really buggy. Did I mention bugs?'''</font>

=Short synopsis=
Forces of [[Ultramarines]] under command of Captain Kruger fight against forces of [[Word Bearers]] under command of Chaos Lord Zymran. Both forces want to take control over Pre-Heresy relic called the Concordat Chaosium. And to kill each other.

The game was made when Warhammer 40,000 was still in 2nd Edition, so many things are quite different, mainly weapons and psychic powers.

In its talons the Bloodthirster carries an axe that drips blood and a long lash tipped with cruel barbs.
*'''Bloodletter''' - The Bloodletters are Khorne's Warriors of Death, the foot soldiers of his daemonic armies. Their truly horrific appearance is an assault upon reason.

*'''Pink Horrors''' - The survivors of daemon attacks are rarely fully sane or coherent. Scarce wonder that there are few reliable descriptions of these daemons, known only as Horrors of Tzeentch. Victims babble incoherently about pink and blue creatures, dancing monsters that bray and cackle as they whirl along dealing death with their long clawed arms. As pink horrors are struck down, each divides into two blue creatures, which continue to fight with savage ferocity until overcome.
*'''Blue Horrors''' - As ponk horrors are struck down, each divides into two blue creatures, which continue to fight with savage ferocity until overcome.
*'''Chaos Cultist''' - The vast bulk of the followers of a Chaos God are the Chaos Cultist. These crazed human followers of the Chaos Gods have been driven to the edge of madness and beyond by the terrifying sights they have seen and the unspeakably vile acts that they have carried out.
 
'''Badges:'''
