Alpha 9.18 features new voice work to the spacemarines and chaos space marines when they are injured.  Added new chaos version of the city conflict map.  Updated ex_city_contflct, ex_bunker and csm_thunderhawk with the default timer flag, so they should get announcements of their time limits.

This news post was delayed due to a server upgrade that went awry.  The actual release was on 22/09/2018


Please note the patch version can only be used to upgrade from version 9.17 to 9.18.

Install the latest Exterminatus Alpha

• If you already have EX alpha, delete it.

Features

• Players will make pain noises when there health drops below 90%, 50% and 10%.  Uses sounds recorded by Bulkwark and edited by Dontask4470.  This feature uses the same rate limiter as battle cries, so by design they don't always play.
• New chaos version of city conflict by Dark Marine called csm_city_conflict.   This will mess with the heads of veteran players :P

Tweaks

• Updated ex_city_conflict, ex_bunker and csm_thunderhawk with the default timer flag.

Bug Fixes

• Updated Announcer system logic to give correct announcements for victory and defeat.
• Regenerated the sound cache to address some weird blips, pops as screeches in sound playback.
