I’ll eventually get around to porting this mod as part of a larger mod I’ve been working on, currently I’m taking an extended break from modding and total war in general so I can’t give a time frame on when that would be.

please make this great mod for wh3

WH3 needs you

thanks again JvJ!

There's a new SFO update by flamboyant
https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2215670821

would you update sfo version or you dont use sfo?

My Star Dragon from scroll is graphical anomally looks terrible, Black Dragon is ok, playing as Sisters of Twilight

Loving these scrolls, way better reward than 800 gold, cheaper units or whatever

After last DLC release, this mod causes minor visual bug (maybe a feature, i am not sure) - feral dread saurian becomes completely feral (no collar, rings etc). It happens for all feral dread saurians outisde added with mod (e.g. vanilla lizardmen units, dread saurains from reglar AI armies in quest battles). Maybe feral one from this mod replaces original units of lizarmen? I didn`t notced before because completed new campaigns with most mods diasbled.

Quick fix, using the correct CB faction for BM now.

make sure steam has downloaded the update correctly, the crash would have been from the old removed UI icons CA used ive updated to the new ones

Seems to cause a crash when you open Lizardmen in Custom Battles with the new update, tested with no other mods active.

Updated, added new ui groups for lizard stuff

@redtyrone
I don't play OVN but if it works it will only be base game monsters.

I used this mod in my previous Queek campaign and ended up with a dozen or so of these scrolls by the end. In my current Mannfred campaign, which is an hour or two from completion, I've only found 2.

RNGesus giveth and RNGesus taketh away.

Would this work with OVN factions and if so it would just be the base game monsters right ? I've been playing a game at turn 73 and never seen a mission or the computer use one

holly glkomolly someone make sfo submode pls

When I summoned a sun dragon the model was... well weird. Kinda looked like it was a rag-doll with animations attached to it. That something on my end?

Updated.

@JvJ hi,great JvJ! Get the new free lord Rakarth in Sega Acess.Dont miss it!

Could you update this for Rakarth?
It seems fitting for him

Just gonna put this here....
But eagles should be 'kinship' to dwarves. LoTR has spoken.

Fixed it, also i hate to be the bearer of bad news, but you had an Eagle Scroll disguised as a Frostwyrm Scroll.

I'm still getting the eagle from the frost wyrm scroll

Fixed both those issues now @Dragon @Noir cheers

Little thing... as Skaven I just summoned some Great Cave Squigs, the lore blurb on their unit card is that of Terradons though

Great mod.

Hey, just found a frost wyrm scroll as the empire that actually summoned a great eagle. Not a big deal, but I wanted you to know. ;)

That's a great tip on the saddles. Thanks! Im totally new to modding so I didn't even realize you could get rid of those parts of the model by deleting just 2 lines :)

Not sure 100% what you are asking rory but if your looking to make Riderless Great Stags just copy over the vanilla great stag variantmesh wef_great_stag.variantmeshdefinition and just remove the accessories (the two lines under "saddle"). CA was kind to enough when they made the Great Stags to not bake the saddle into the model.

Hey JvJ, would you mind if I used the great stag assets to make a campaign recruitable version. Credit to you and Fenriswold of course

It's pulled straight from the TT, skaven don't have any natural affinity with any of the existing summons, they mould creatures to them, you only need to look at their roster to see they dont use any creatures without twisting them beyond recognition hence having almost everything as a binding option, TK are undead and all undead have a limited pool and TK only use constructs so again no affinity.

i mean its your mod, just seems weird that those 2 factions have no scrolls for them when every other faction does. but if you don't want to make them than that's on you. still great mod, thanks for the work put into it.

Nope the chart stays as it is, i do plan to add Abhorrent scrolls when i get the chance, they will essentially be the same as binding scrolls but with a high miscast chance that will damage the caster. Regarding drop rates, see the discussion i just posted.

Are you planing to add the skaven and tomb kings units? as kinship for them? and is there any way to make these show up more often, i have never seen more than 1 per campaign.

Hey, Mod is updated:

Some very handy changes came with the new patch, i can now assign if each item can be stolen or destroyed, which means factions (should) no longer be able to obtain scrolls from other factions!

So now i can actually go ahead and implement the Abhorrent scrolls without fear of overcrowding the pool. Im a very pleased chap.

Been using this mod in my most recent Queek Vortex campaign and it's great, thanks for making it.

It's really good to have more variety in magic item drops without the items being OP. I was also worried that these new items would overwhelm the item drops, but that's not the case. Thank you for being restrained when adding them to the item drop tables.

great mod,love you sir

oh its no problem, not like im complaining about you working hard to make a fun mod. cheers JvJ!

Thanks Loose, yeah that was a me issue should be fixed now!

Hello my dude, thought I'd drop a report saying that i got a griffon scroll from chaos as the empire, and it had chaos dragon breath or some such ability. It may be something related to sfo, but it was too wild to not report either way. didnt have the bloodroar that i can see its supposed to have in a custom battle

sun dragon and playing as wood elves i think nut iam not sure can be not compatible with some high elves mods or claledor or anything that modifies sun moon dragons etc

Need more info than that Anax, what faction and what scroll

somehow when i summon a star dragon the graficks at him doesnt look good why?

Finally, naked chaos dragon (without saddle). Is it possible to add naked zombie dragon (without armor plates and saddle) to vampire counts?

That was honestly more informative than I expected, so thank you very much. Keep up the great work. :)

Drop rate depends entirely on the amount of ancillaries a culture group has, the Dark Elves for example have around 80 in vanilla (i think), then you have a bunch of randomly dropped ancillaries that are not culture locked (pidgeon plucker pendant). My mod adds a further 30 to the pool. But that doesn't count for multitude of transferable ancillaries that are also added to the pool under certain circumstances. Then on top of that you have mods like Rebanner and Drink It who also add numerous new ancillaries to each culture group.

So yeah hard to say, when you acquire a new item it's pulled completely randomly from the pool, so a common or a rare item have the exact same chance to be pulled, that chance being 1/X (X being the total number of ancillaries available).

That's the most concrete answer i can give sorry.

Just out of curiosity, what's the drop chance rate? I've managed to get several in a MP campaign, but my partner didn't get any. And clue as to why?

Let me know if you notice anything else, much appreciated.

Hey sorry about that, was a mistake on my end should be fixed now.

Hi again! i'm sorry but here to report another animation bug. i got scroll of Terradon by searching sea encounter as Empire. and when i summon em...hmm... they are just so flat...(without animation) so flat that looks like UFO or some sort of aircraft... so disturbing. @_@;;

ok, thanks
