Overview of Customization:

•Customization in "Space Marine 2" is primarily available in the Operations and Eternal War modes. Each class has unique customization options, and players can tailor their Space Marine to reflect their favorite Chapter or create a unique look.

Accessing Customization:

•Location: Customization happens in the Armouring Hall, accessible after completing the prologue and the first campaign mission, "Skyfire."

•Modes: You can only customize your Marine's appearance in Operations or Eternal War, not in the campaign.

Customization Options:

Armor Customization:

•Armor Sets: Each class has specific sets that you unlock by completing missions in Operations or winning matches in Eternal War. You can equip these sets whole or use individual pieces for a custom look.

•Custom Armor Slots: There are four slots for custom armor sets where you can mix and match:

•Helmet

•Pauldrons

•Breastplate

•Wargear

•Gauntlets

•Greaves

•Delete Custom Sets: You can't delete sets directly from the armor menu but can replace pieces or use custom rules for individual customization.

Astartes Chapter Customization:

•Chapter Heraldry: You can choose from over 30 Chapters, each with unique colors, emblems, and armor pieces, purchasable with Requisition Points earned through gameplay.

•Custom Chapters: Create your own by setting:

•General Rules for overall color and pattern.

•Custom Rules for specific armor pieces, allowing you to adjust each part's color, pattern, and emblem.

Heretic Astartes Customization:

•Exclusive to Eternal War: Chaos Space Marines can only be customized in PvP mode, with options to change colors and basic decals but no unique armor pieces.

Weapon Customization:

•Weapon Skins: While not as extensive as armor, weapons can have different skins, unlocked through gameplay or Requisition Points.

Unlocking Customization:

•Requisition Points: Earned by completing missions or matches, used to unlock Chapter heraldry and specific armor pieces.

•Achievements: Some sets or customizations might be tied to achievements or milestones in Operations or Eternal War.

Class-Specific Customization:

•Each of the six classes (Tactical, Assault, Vanguard, Bulwark, Sniper, and Heavy) has its own sets of armor, which can be customized. Some sets are class-exclusive, giving each class a distinct look.

Tips for Customization:

•Experiment with Custom Rules: For a truly unique look, use custom rules to apply different colors or decals to individual armor pieces.

•Save Custom Sets: Utilize the four custom slots to save different looks for various playstyles or aesthetics.

•Check Heraldry Shop: Regularly visit to buy new Chapter heraldry or pieces with your Requisition Points.

•Mix and Match: Don’t feel bound to one Chapter’s look; mix elements from different Chapters for an original appearance.

Additional Notes:

•Cosmetic Only: All customization is cosmetic and does not affect gameplay mechanics or stats.
