I have officially concluded my modding journey on this workshop.
As always: feel free to make any kind of submods for any of my mods.

Superb units. Thx!

Nah, these are normal Paladins.
I like the idea of the Black Priors though, so I might give It a chance in another mod.
I'm not very skilled with custom abilities though, so I'll probably skip that part.

Abilities: Glory in Defeat - Whenever these guys are losing combat they will be buffed with bonus melee attack and damage, bonus leadership and their Vigour will be freeze.
Dirty Fight - They throw one volley of grenades that deal tiny damage but applies Blind on the enemy (debuff similar to Respanse Blind)
Stats: Melee attack average but the Glory in defeat buff can make them killing machines. Defense stats good. Low armor.

Perhaps you could rename the foot paladins as Black Priors. These guys are some sort of Knights that commit crimes killing not just enemy of the realm but also fellow knights and peasants out of madness for blood thanks to years of fighting in every kind of hell. They were banished into exile instead of execution if they are not caught. The Lady offered them one more chance to prove themselves worthy by fighting until they die but not with the title of knights anymore. Thnks to that, they can fight on foot without the shame of dishonor since they don't even have honor anymore.

Love your mods!
