Description
Updated version of my previous mod with many fixes and improvements. Make sure to use this one and the map linked below because the old versions of both are outdated and steam won't let me update them after OS reinstall.

Requires Sacrificial Pit map to play:

Play with XP mod to level Elites even faster: https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1678147435

How to play:
- 3 players vs 3 AI
- Positions must be fixed, human players on the left, CPU opponents on the right
- You start with 5 elite points and gain 1 per 2 waves completed
- Deploy elites anywhere within the arena
- Depending on enemy faction and slot enemy unit composition will change. Compositions are narrative based. Slot 1: Bully Boyz/Firestorm crusade/Aspect host. Slot 2: Kult of dakka/Vanguard Spearhead/Windrider host. Slot 3: Dread mob/Anvil siege force/Wraith host
- There are 3 difficulties. Play on casual with XP mod if you just want to level your elites fast. Play on Normal for the extra challenge as more enemies will spawn. Without the knowledge of enemy compositions it can be fairly hard but beatable. Hard difficulty is the ultimate challenge, I'm not sure myself if it can be won as enemies will progressively take less damage with each wave (they take 2x more in all other difficulties, but here the bonus will be completely removed by wave 20).

Known bugs and workarounds:
- When playing Autarch Kyre his clone will turn into a red box when airborne. To avoid this make sure to include an Eldar opponent and pick a "package" that has Kyre on its command card.
- Sometimes the game throws a sync error when playing with other players. It's hard to replicate, but I'm working on a possible solution.

I have tried this mod with 1 player + 2 AI vs 3 Casual AI.
Enjoyed the mod, playing with Elite Xp mod turn on enable the spawn all of 3 heroes immediately, regardless of elite point cost. This is the one where i have the most success.

If i'm using the vanilla setting, the game is bit more difficult as AI is not too smart with heroes and health recover is scarce. Infantry squad suffer from this the most.
My suggestion, make it so that capture point slowly recover health, so it make more sense to capture them, and i'd love to try if giving 1 elite point per wave instead of 2 is more fun.

Cheer!!

Thanks, ill try!

Enemy team has to have 3 bots as each wave cycles through different opponent and hence different unit composition. Have you tried playing FFA beforehand? It can mess lobby up. If yes then try pressing Custom Solo button up top and then back to Custom Online to refresh the lobby.

I tried to play 2v2 and 3v3 full of bots, allies and enemies.

Are you playing with real people or bot allies? If it's the former then not everyone is subscribed. Everyone has to sub to both game mode mod and Sacrificial Pit map, link is in description.

I might be doing something wrong but when i Start this up and try to spawn my elite I get cannot deploy unless next to a HQ gate or captured point. did I miss something?

Sure, that's one of the reasons why I made it. Make sure to use XP mod for even faster leveling.

Also in response to previous posters, I may have found a way to fix sync error for good, but it will take some time to fix it.
