I appreciate how the creator gets a bigger share than Relic. That's pretty cool of them to do that. I'm definitely more inclined to buy some skins knowing that fact.

So will we have to pay for each skin or do we buy this curated mod thing as whole?

Tbh i would buy a good looking historical skin but it sounds odd that Relic will earn money because a talentet modder created a good skin. I prefer giving the money to those wo did the work. This will we will probably never get skin packs like in CoH1.

Honestly I'm happy that the skins are not all historical, I want something fancy and pretty. I'm guessing most people who say "I hate non-historical skins" never played Dow II or never painted all their men in DOW II pink and lime green :snfPeter:

Submitted skins must fit one of the 4 categories below to be eligible for selection.


“Mechanical animals”
Give them metal teeth, metallic horns, silver scales, or copper claws. Make them look like robotic monsters.


“Alive, living and breathing”

Think H.R. Giger, The Blob or Clive Barker. Machines made not so much of metal but flesh. Organic-looking and potentially disgusting.


“They don’t make them like they used to”
What if tanks and other war machines were made out of precious materials and benefitted from some incredible craftsmanship – such as rare wood, golden leaves, adornments, bas-relief and other details that would not look out of place on an Egyptian chariot.


“The real stuff”
Inspired by historical events of WWII.


WHY, RELIC?! WHY?

Hopefully we can turn off the non-historical skins in game. Otherwise get used to seeing a lot of Mecha-Tiger painted Tigers Tanks in automatch.

My thread is about funding the ESL with in-game store, like Valve did with DOTA. :D


Thanks amigos!!!

Now use some of that money to fly out players for an offline finals at your offices and you might have a tournament that people outside of the tiny CoH2 playerbase actually care about. And you make it look less like a shallow, shameless marketing ploy! Win-win!

I too think that Relic should run a charity.
