I understand if you are too busy, but I absolutely love all your mods, and I believe that giving the wood elves such a unit that could help better flesh out their roster like this would be a dream come true! Would you consider making this for me? If you'd like, I'd be more than happy to compensate you by all your effort by buying you a few coffees. That would only seem fair to me :)

They could be called "Spirit Callers", that have similar stats to flamers while having the Ice Sheet spell (a low level spell that only slows ground units by 25% for a short duration) as a bound spell, to help the Wood elves with their kiting game, and an aura that gives fire resistance to help your spirit allies. This unit would fullfill the three things that Wood elves really struggle with: anti-horde, protection against fire, and help for their kiting. Wood elves have amazing archers, but due to their reliance on kiting while lacking army abilities, you often are unable to deploy them effectively. I believe that such a unit would great help them with that!

Also, I was wondering, do you also take requests? I am almost afraid to ask since you have already made some of my favourite mods out there, including the amazing Animals for Wood Elves mod, but I thought I'd ask nonetheless. The request is actually a simple one: Would you consider making basically a reskinned version of the Flamers of Tzeentch, but with these models (the owner has stated that she is fine with others using it in the past): https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=2968920193 but then with the theme being that they ask the spirits for aid.

This unit looks amazing! I absolutely love how this turned out :)

It would be compatible yes, but not balanced for sfo

Its sfo compatible? Thx :)

Read the description

can you i use it together with The Unwashed Masses mod?

Hey Calm, love your mods. Are you gonna port Hounds of Kurnous any time soon?

This'll sound weird, but between the actual damage, useful ranged, armor, and other stats that put them heads and shoulders above normal gnoblars... the fact that the official pigbacks absolutely have good reasons to be picked over these guys really highlights how silly the pigbacks are.

That said, frankly the biggest reason to have the previous whole submod, so thanks for keeping this going Calm!

so cute

A beautifully creative mod. Now just those wierd dino things for cav and we have the perfect labyrinth mod.

amazing!

Love the labyrinth nod, also reminds me of the Orcish armor that Frodo uses to disguse himself with when heading into Mordor.

Ratling lmao thats perfect. you nailed it.
Only marks lost are for aknowledging that you would enjoy your own suggestion, instead try
'I bet more players would sub to a version of this where...'

If you made an entire faction focused on these dudes, I'd play the shit out of that.

So, do a shit load of work so that I, a stranger, may never confirm whether or not I actually use it.

I immediately noticed the Labyrinth designs and am very grateful to you for them.

@Theobald and @GunKing
You're both spot on. Legend and Labyrinth were both sources of inspiration for the overall look, with particular helmets being nods to specific character designs from both. Glad to be in the compant of fellow Brian Froud fans, warhammer gobbos have a very established look and theres not much room to build on that, whereas gnoblars allow an opening for different aesthetics not already found in the game, which i was happy explore with these designs.

@Kimplin
who cares

but is it lore accurate?

armored gnoblars are my favorite

Love these dudes so much. I remember similar models in one of your other mods and then I saw Labyrinth quite recently and was pleasantly surprised to see the connection. Brian Froud faerie/imp/goblin aesthetic is severely underrated.

Also, yes, they're amazing.

@Guvenoren
There's definitively a Labyrinth movie vibe, my inner child says.

And/or Scott's Legend movie maybe.

Aaaaand now i'm rewatching them while playing.

What are these based on? Looks neat!

Some of the coolest looking units in the game without question.
