Space Marine 2 might not have landed quite as surely as some of us hoped (see Robin Valentine's rather mixed review), but it looks like a game that can take a hit and keep on trucking. Ever since release, there's been a dedicated scene of 40k fans tweaking, tuning and adding extra cosmetic gubbins to the game, but most projects pale in comparison to the Astartes Overhaul, an ongoing 'lore accurate' mega-mod by the Astartes Team that adds new classes, weapon and cosmetics as well as comprehensively reworking the post-campaign Operations mode.
While this mod has been around and kicking for a while, it just rolled out one of its most significant updates yet, featuring two more classes, cross-class customization options, an experimental 12-player mode (this mod is fully multiplayer compatible, so long as all players are running the same version) and even a first taste of Terminator power armor, for when absolutely every Tyranid in the room needs to die right now.
