You haven't seen anything, there are collectors that spend fortunes on the tabletop miniatures. Passion as a word doesn't begin to cover it 😄

yay that makes me happy to hear. also your welcome It's nice seeing so much love and pashion for such a fun game.

This game is based on a tabletop game with miniatures and dice that has been around since the 80s, so there is a lot of history behind it and many fans that grew up playing it.

Thanks for the kind words, and yes I do plan to release more unit packs and cover the remaining races!

oh I didn't know that A and that makes sense B thank you very much for answering. again I love your mods I just couldn't help but be curious not being a modder or as well versed in fantasy. so thank you so much for this. it's nice hearing a pashonate artist and I consider this a form of art.

I loook forward to more work in the future. and sorry for sounding rude by asking if I did.

Hello, it's simple really, these mods add units that are in the army books, but not present in the game for various reasons: either because they are kept for future dlc or the devs feel they are superfluous.

So, we add loreful and balanced units which may or may NOT fill a missing spot in the roster. Some of these are added just for fun. For example, the army books say that Orc Boys can be equipped with hand weapons (swords/axes) or spears. For years the game only offered the first variation, so our mods added the spear one.

In this case, the spear variation actually makes a difference as it gives players early access to anti-large. In other cases, the benefits are less or even zero, so the variation is just added for flavour!

so Ive been playing this mod for a while and while I don't want to sound ungreatful I am just curious why did you add so many unit/variants to it.

I am just curious about your mind set and thoughts behind it and this is not a complaint I honestly love them mod I just can't help but wonder if its a little exsessive or feel a little out of place?

just to be clear I love this and all your mods I am curious.

also not sure where else to add this and again not trying to sound greedy I am just curious, but are you going to be doing any work on new factions like say the coast or tomb kings for example. to be clear I am greatful for what you have given us and if you don't want to I get it I was just curious if you have plans for the future.

Honestly this is great work. But I am curious what niche does the prospector fill? I see they have a bit more ammo than blasminers and have alot more damage. Are they supposed to be like a once per battle nuke button on a unit you want gone? Just asking cause I noticed their stats and they're better than blast miners and even the regiment of renown but since they are only 28 models it doesn't seem like they are made for battling even ♥♥♥♥♥♥ chaff

- Updated for patch 6.3
- Grudgecrusher Dreadnaught does not disappear anymore when destroyed (thanks to Dead Baron)

I would like to ask why the number and health of early - stage troops are not very high? I tried the mod troops and found that they don't have any particular advantages over the original troops.

Thanks for the info. Pretty neat overall. Honestly I wouldn't have been surprised if some AI generation tools were used due to how common it is with modders nowadays.

I quite like the methods you listed instead, however.

Some techniques:
-capture a screenshot from the game and edit it
-use model viewer in Asset Editor (unofficial app made by Ole)
-find artwork online
-draw your own (the most difficult!)

Gotcha, and no worries. I was just curious on the tools used and all that. And you have a point about unit card quality being strange across this game series as a whole.

Through the years I've used multiple techniques and also some folks were kind enough to make cards for me. That is why you may see different art styles for my units. Then again even CA are not very consistent on that front. WH1 had great looking unit cards, WH2 had mediocre (especially some dlc packs), then the quality was again improved in WH3.

Hey, Decomposed. I was wondering how the unit card art is made. Since some of them seem to have different styles when compared to each other.

Excellent!

- Updated for patch 6.2

Thanks a lot

AI has access to them too

Can ai recruit these units or only the player recruit can them?

Does 6.1.3 requires an update ? I can't seem to see any new units (tested on a fresh campaign)

Thank you so much for all the updates!

- Updated for patch 6.1.2

- Updated for patch 6.0

@Acid
Karak Zorn landmark lets you recruit Grudgecrusher Dreadnoughts.

What building lets you get the grudge crusher machine? I don't see it anywhere for malakai

Also, to spread the word... Deco has issues with his hardware atm. Don't ask about updates, he wants to and is trying to get it resolved.

Old Guard are Longbeard/Great Weapon, as I recall. Deco, although you are right that they are surroundable, when you contrast that with Dwarf+++ durability and the fact that actually can be synergistic with being the premier stand and shoot faction... I definitely wondered before if they were undercosted.

Update for patch 6.0?

quick question. What techs affect the Old Guard? Reading ingame skills, I think its slayer tech, but Im not sure.

I can increase the cost, just keep in mind they are a small count unit, 24 models iirc. Slayers are 80 or 100? This disadvantage can make a huge difference in various battle situations.

Hi, really good mod, but the Old Guard are far too cheap currently - they cost less than standard slayers. At the moment, it's hard to justify using anything but them for line infantry.
Would you consider increasing the cost? (Both recruitment cost and upkeep)?
They should be the most expensive infantry for the dwarves, with how good they are, but are priced incredibly low for what they are. Cheers.

- Updated for patch 5.3

Absolutely loving the Grudgecrusher

@Mareus12
Scroll down, it gets asked pretty frequently

how do i recruit the Grudgecrusher Dreadnaught?

Yeah, working on that one, no luck yet

It seems that Dreadnaught disappeared directly after being destroyed, as if the death animation was missing

And then one more random thought; any consideration to techs that can apply to Dreadnaught; neither artillery nor warmachine line includes it. It is VERY good at its job as a big rock as well, so if not I understand.

Exactly. I've made a few units like the Old Guard based on the Aspiring Champions. Prophets of Doom for Empire, Acolytes for Chorfs, Gouge-horns for Beastmen etc. They are all in the 900-1100 cost area, I want to stick to this pattern.

Absolutely fair, and I wish I knew a way to ensure that was fairly traded for. Cranking up cost even further probably isn't satisfying.

Not a bad idea, though they already perform quite well for their cost. Giving them additional abilities could potentially break them.

Hey, any chance the Old Guard can be given Encourage? Feels appropriate, and since they are champion longbeards, would also seem to follow they'd receive it as well.

- Updated for patch 5.2
- Old Guard: +50 Cost
- Bugman's Thrower capped to avoid spam
- Slightly increased AP dmg on Prospectors and Bugman's

Notes section above

I am failing to find where to recruit the dreadnought.

Unless a recent patch broke the animations, the hammers should attack in melee combat.

Hi! Question: The Grudgecrusher Dreadnaught only shoots? It doesn't attack with the hammers?

Great! Thx for letting me know

Yes, there will be a compilation, but I want to release one more pack first.

Hey! Quick question: Is it possible to combine all of your expanded rosters into one pack?
