Don’t worry the mod is still amazing.

@anotherpeter134 I really want to and have a lot of ideas planned out, but I'm floating between my motivations with this game. I still love it, but I'm struggling to make the time to actually come back and play for long periods and mod the game. I will try my best but no promises. Hope you understand.

love the mod. for an idea if you could make a version only for Rakarth like a hydra that can summon other monsters or something unique. or just a hydra that's a bit bigger than the rest since its Rakarths ultimate weapon.

First of all - thanks for the mod.

Can anyone confirm it is working for WH3 Version 6.0.5 +

Edit: Turns out that friend was messing with me, he had 9(?) hydra in that army but that's still a ludicrous number of the things.

Could you create a swamp hydra variant in lustria in that swampy ruin south of the city with the gems? It's on the west coast. Half the region is swamp and coastal jungle, you could add a landmark that gives a swamp hydra with woodsman and aquatic attributes along with poison attacks and instead of fire breath it has the black dragon poison breath.

Could we get more screenshots showing which is which and the unit card pictures and stats?
Secondly Raakarth needs a minimum of 2 unique hydras for him. I remember reading about when he led an invasion of Ulthuan he had a record breaking 20 something hydras in his army including a few that were smaller and thinner (thus weaker) but were extremely magic resistant, fireballs and more just getting tanked easily.

Hey man, is there going to be a update anytime soon? maybe some new goodies?

glad you like it so far
have fun and have a great day

Already added it to my modlist and started a dark elf campaign, enjoying it so far.
Thanks and I hope you have a great day too.

I guess so but dont worry too much, its literally one of the most common issues that comes up with this game.
Hope you enjoy and have a great day

I just tried unsubbing and resubbing and it worked, thanks.
I have to add though, that I only recently came back to the game and decided to mod it so I guess I got really unlucky on my timing for it to have bugged in that manner.

@Mortaro
Just checked and its working fine for me
These are the tables that were not working with the last update and I have updated them already.
Could you try resubscribing to my mod and letting it redownload from scratch and then let me know if that works for you
Hope this helps and hope to get it working for you soon

I have tried running the mod, by itself, no other mods enabled, on the latest hotfix 5.2.4, and it doesn't even let me start the game, instead getting this error:
The following mods cause a crash to the Database: lns_def_hydras.pack

The first invalid database record is
wh3_default_land_monsters_heavylns_def_royal_hydra in table
cdir_military_generator_unit_qualities_tables
and pack file lns_def_hydras.pack

i really like the mod so I hope this helps.

Updated for Patch 5.2.2
If anyone could let me know that its working on their side I would appreciate it.
Thanks for using with my mod!!!

@The Dark Ranger
I just realized you said to the add to the black pyramid so an arkhan tomb kings death Hydra sounds like a promising idea to start with

@The Dark Ranger
For lore of Life a bloated and/or undead Hydra for nurgle, vampires and coast is at the top of my priorities for when I seriously get back and have enough time to play and mod the game. I've been saying it for a while but I genuinely really miss playing and modding it's just hard to find time these days.
I'm not a big fan of the metal Hydra but a death hydra does sound interesting and I'll see if I can brainstorm anything

@BOSS thanks for the kind words I've been really busy lately and just assumed the mod would work for a while. I'll work on the update tomorrow once I wake up.

@CofeeCaat see previous comment but once again sorry for not checking sooner

I will work on the update tomorrow when I get up. Sorry for not keeping up, not as much time to game and mod these days

this does need update after new patch. pls. i miss the hydras.

I've got an idea for you, a bronze hydra with metal lore magic powers, I can't remember the spells but I'm sure you could come up with something, you could make it a regiment of renown if you can't think of a landmark you'd like to use for it. There could also be a lore of life magic hydra that has extra healing abilities and doubbled passive healing, it would be obtained from the Twin's Magic Forest region once captured. A death magic hydra in the black pyramid city? I can't remember the name of it.

update pls we love this mod

@Wand_Face_
Just checked in game and visually all hydras look good to me in Skirmish vs AI at least.
Do you have any other mods that affect the dark elves or specifically another mod that affects hydras?
Let me know if you can as I would be more than happy to help and I'm really glad you're enjoying the mod.

@Wand_Face_
Let me check this out for you

Mod doesnt seem to be working properly for me. Regular Hydras have an invisible body with just their heads floating in the air. Everything else is working fine though and its a great mod thanks.

@Klinkers
Perfect, and I'm glad to hear everything is working for you.
Enjoy, and have a good day

@LORDnSAVIOR I found them now, I think it was some other mod I had messed up the recruit, don't know what mod but is working now hehe.

@Klinkers
I just checked in game and they all show up at the right locations.
2 hydras are ROR's
The rest are recruit-able at the Dark Elf Landmarks in Naggarond, Ghrond, and Clar Karond
What faction are you playing as and where were you looking for the Hydras?

yeah this is not working, the hydras show in the game(in upgrades skill trees) but is no where to recruit

Hey LordnSavior, can confirm it does work :)

but yeah i do want to make a bloated/undead hydra at some point.

@Leeeeeegion
Damn that sucks. I loved that mod and are you sure its not part of the skeleton compilation mod. I havent played the game in a while so im not sure.

@Warpig934
Also just let me know if the mod still works. Its good on my end but just want to make sure its fine for others.

@Warpig934
Updated for the latest patch. I really appreciate you being a fan for so long and sorry for not being more diligent in updates.
I do still plan on making more hydras but I've just been super busy with other stuff for a while but I do want to add more hydras to this mod.

Hey LordnSaviour, will you be updating anytime soon with some new toys for us to try? :)

@LordnSavior the skeleton hydra mod got deleted. Interestingly, not having it got me into the modding scene, and I stole your veteran hydra and slotted it into the VC for personal use XD. Now I've got 6 mods that i feel responsible for :/

@Leeeeeegion, I have a few others planned for the dark elves before I move onto another faction. I know theres a nurgle hydra somewhere on the workshop and there is a skeleton hydra for the vampire counts as well

@Warpig934 a really cool idea, there was a really awesome nurgle hydra on the workshop somewhere but I have a few Hydras planned before I handle a chaos one.

@Toraxshot So do I!!! Dark Elves are my favorite faction and Hydras are my favorite unit for them. Way better than stinky dragons.

@LWH Yes both RORs and regular Hydras should be available for the AI and they all benefit from the normal techs that affect Hydras

Sorry for no updates everyone. Been demotivated with the state of WH3 but I promise Im still here and will update, though I dont believe it needs one for any of the patches so far. I had some Hydras cooking before I took a break but I will get back to them soon (TM).

Solaire, to my knowledge (as it is on one of Bardathe111's compatiblity mod lists and they're currently all up to date and running) this should be 100% ok. Hope that helps. Check out his lists (under mods, not collections) in the Workshop <3

Is this in need of an update?

How about a zombie/bloated hydra, for the Vampires!

great units but available for ai and benefit from technology ？

i just love Hydras !

This is awesome. If your thinking of making another type of hydra, what about a chaos version, since in the lore it says that there a few remaining in the old world apart from the chaos wastes

Be nice to have a recolor reskin only for hydras. Not many anymore on W3 like there was on 2 for whatever reason. Id like a dark purple/black or a pack that added variations. For Rakarth i think a hydra with black dragon horns on it with the same type of coloring/look that's on Bracus or just more armor on it. Also Lokhir might be cool to have a hybrid hydra with a few kharybdis heads on it.

Cool beans man, i don't have any experience myself but ill give it a crack when SFO updates to the Chaos Dwarf update.

@Mahram I dont play with SFO so I really dont know how to balance them or what I need to do to get them to work. If you do you have full permission to create an SFO version of my mod
