Cool stuff.

Chaos could do with some variation, what do you think about making chaos characters into regiments of renown for the chaos factions? Like Wulfrik the wanderer with his veteran norsemen, Aekold Helbrass and his chosen of tzeentch, Arbaal the undefeated and his chosen knights of khorne, Festus and his nurgle cultists/marauders, Harald-hammerhand and his undivided warriors, U'Zhul the skulltaker and his bloodletters and Valnir the reaper: ancient undead nurgle warriors.

Most importantly Kaldour, leading traitorous imperial/brettonnian/tilean/estilean knights, follows tzeentch, very cool.

Gotta love a bit of underboob

**ninja51** · August 09, 2011, 07:15 PM

Ahem, holy

thats awesome!

Love the concept, love breasteses too, its a package designed to please me

Mercenaries is an incredible way to bring in the troops the map doesnt allow to be seen

**paradamed** · August 09, 2011, 07:53 PM

Cool preview! The more units the better. I didnt know you could create models. They look great actually, both models and textures. Do you plan to create mercenaries for all factions?

**Krystoforos** · August 10, 2011, 12:32 AM

I love You man

Variety in COW is one of the best side of this mod. Merc, unique generals(leaders) are exactly this what I'm looking in this game

Very good quality of Your first model. Keep it up.

+rep!

Hehe, yeah, I was thinking maybe I should tone it down a bit, but then again source models are like that and Daemonettes already ingame are way more revealing, so underboobs ftw.

Man, all sound great, specially Kaldour

I have to admit I don't know these units, if you could point out links to pics/info, or possible WH-book where they are I would apreciate it.

I didn't either

I have made some skins, but this is my first model I made with Milkshape for M2. I encountered a lot of problems with getting the models right in-game, but Kolwen and T & D helped me a lot of troubleshooting, thanks guys. I just realized yesterday my installation of MS was bad, and after re-installing it everything fixed itself and I tought to put up the preview.

About later question, yes and no, don't know yet, Himster had good all around ideas as you can see. According to WH-book Amazons are recruitable to all factions if in Lustria region, and other players agree using of it, so in CoW I believe it will be just for the Empire, and maybe Dwarves. Tought there is lots of more units for Amazons in the unofficial Armybook, adding more units with the general (like BP-mercs) is one good near future option too after the general model/coding.

That I had in mind too. There is already a lot of units for all factions, and wanted to do something totally different from current roster, visually atleast.

And thanks to all for compliments and rep too, full preview coming up soon. And brainstorming is free here, if someone has good ideas, no, great ideas

They aren't actually merc-units, but some of them would be great and possible adding as spawning generals.

I think there's too many to be spawning generals, the player needs control: but as champions that come forward to offer their services to a higher lord; that's lore accurate and pretty freaking cool, if I could have my way that'd be the only way chaos factions could recruit troops and every tribe has slightly different troops.
