ValheimSpaceMarineMod
Warhammer 40k power armor and weapons rebalanced for Valheim: unlocked by boss kills, per-character progression, drop-pod ally, new weapon effects. Needs Shawesomes_Warhammer40k.Space Marine Mod for Valheim (v3.0)
Turns the Shawesomes Warhammer 40k content into a progression system that fits Valheim: you start weak, and stronger power-armor ranks and weapons unlock as you defeat the vanilla bosses. (Русская версия ниже.)
Requires the Shawesomes_Warhammer40k mod (models, effects and items) installed separately in
BepInEx/plugins. This mod does not contain its assets. Parts of this mod were written with AI assistance.
Quick start
- Install BepInEx, Jotunn and Shawesomes_Warhammer40k, then this mod.
- In game press B to put on the power armor (press again to take it off).
- Press V (or F8) to open the Armory: buy weapons and upgrade the armor with requisition points.
- Press G to cycle through weapons you own. N calls a drop-pod ally.
- Earn requisition points and XP by killing enemies, crafting and building.
All keys can be changed in the config.
Boss-gated tiers
Weapons, armor ranks and the ally are locked behind Valheim bosses. Locked items show what you still have to defeat.
| Tier | Unlocked by | Examples |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | start | Combat knife, needle pistol, chainsword, bolt pistol |
| 1 | Eikthyr | Chainaxe, shotgun, bolter |
| 2 | The Elder | Power sword, guardian spear, heavy flamer |
| 3 | Bonemass | Lightning claws, crozius, power fist, storm bolter, heavy bolter |
| 4 | Moder | Thunder hammer, plasma rifle |
| 5 | Yagluth | Relic blade, multi-melta |
| 6 | The Queen | Lascannon, Life-Eater virus bomb |
| 7 | Fader | Top armor rank |
Weapon damage is tuned to vanilla values for each biome (about 15-25 at the start, up to about 200 at the end).
Armor and upgrades
- Seven armor ranks, each adding armor, health, stamina, carry weight and regeneration. Higher ranks need a boss kill and requisition points.
- Extra upgrades for health, stamina, armor, regeneration and damage, each with a level cap.
- Progression is saved per character in
BepInEx/config/WarhammerProgress/<name>.json.
Drop-pod ally
Press N to call a Space Marine ally. It is available from the start but weak before the first boss (30% strength, short stay) and grows to full strength by Bonemass. Cooldown 10 minutes by default.
Effects
Muzzle flashes and tracers for bolt weapons, a glowing plasma orb, a red lascannon beam, melta heat, a flamethrower stream, a toxic cloud for the virus bomb, chainsword sparks and blue power-field lightning on melee hits.
Safety and balance
- No friendly fire by default: player buildings, tamed animals and allies are not damaged.
- Boss damage multiplier 0.6 for ranged/area weapons.
- Shawesomes items are clamped to vanilla-tier stats (can be turned off).

Русская версия
Мод превращает контент Shawesomes Warhammer 40k в систему прокачки под Valheim: вы начинаете слабым, а сильная броня и оружие открываются по мере убийства боссов.
Нужен мод Shawesomes_Warhammer40k (модели, эффекты, предметы) - ставится отдельно. Часть кода написана с помощью ИИ.
Как играть: B - надеть/снять броню, V или F8 - арсенал (покупка оружия и улучшения за очки реквизиции), G - сменить оружие, N - вызвать десантника. Очки и опыт дают убийства, крафт и строительство.
Тиры: 0 - сразу; 1 - Эйктюр; 2 - Древний; 3 - Костемас; 4 - Модер; 5 - Яглут; 6 - Королева; 7 - Фейдер. Закрытые предметы в арсенале показывают, какого босса нужно победить.
Союзник: доступен сразу, но до первого босса слаб (30% силы, недолго живёт); к Костемасу становится полноценным. Перезарядка по умолчанию 10 минут.
Прокачка хранится отдельно для каждого персонажа: BepInEx/config/WarhammerProgress/<имя>.json. Дружественный огонь выключен, урон по боссам x0.6. Все настройки - в BepInEx/config/com.antigravity.valheimspacemarine.cfg.
