Da Raiderz [OUTDATED, SUB TO THE NEW VERSION!]

Description
Ever wanted a cheaper version of Black Orcs?
Well, look no further and meet Da Raiderz!

These angry boyz are very ferocious and WILL tear apart low tier infantry, especially if armoured (like those poor Dwarf warriors above) and can even do decent damage to Mid/High tier infantry too before routing.

Ok, presentation over: let's dive into the technical stuff!

*BALANCE*

Raiderz are literally vanilla Orc boyz with Black Orcs Weapons.
That said: I tried my best to not make them too broken.
Their stats are mostly on par with the vanilla Orc boyz except for some minor changes here and there.
I have also increased their cost and upkeep a little and changed their tier from 1 to 2, just in case.
After multiple custom battles all I can say is this: they are strong but not OP.
They are good damage dealers who can crush low tier Infantry but they will still lose 1v1 against strong units like Hammerers, Slayers, Greatswords ecc...
So in my opinion, they are working as intended.
Keep in mind that I have tested them in custom battles only though.
That means that I'm not taking into account Lord's Campaign Bonuses nor Scraps.
Putting all of that aside, they should fit in the orc roster nicely without destroying the Old World in the process (hopefully).

*COMPATIBILITY*

As far as I know this mod works with pretty much everything that do not mess with vanilla units.
I'm playing the game with 43 different mods including Deco's Orc & Goblins custom rosters and everything is working fine!
The mod is NOT save compatible.
If you want the Raiderz in your campaign you'll have to start a new one.

*KNOWN ISSUES*

-Minor visual bug with the Lowpoly imposter models who seem to hold their weapons incorrectly while running.
Since many people don't use the Lowpoly option at all and the ones who do usually don't care about them either and since it doesn't harm the mod functionality, I have no intention to fix it for the time being (also because I have no idea about HOW to fix it).

*UPDATES POLICY*

Let me be straight with you...when the mod status change from updated to outdated....if you start to spam in the comment section things like "update pls, OMG UPDATE, can we have an update my good sir?, UpDaTe!1!1!1" and similar stuff....know that https://media.giphy.com/media/e3URFlLQywEPC/giphy.gif


...But jokes aside: please don't do that.
When it becomes necessary, and when I can, I will update my stuff, do not worry.

And that's all I guess!
Credits time!

Firstly I would like to thank the (for now unknown) artist who made those lovely boyz that you can see in the main mod png, if by any chance anyone of you reading this know the origin of this pic please do tell, so that I can provide a proper link for the artist's site!
Any of this would not have been possible without Frodo45127's RPFM which is still updated to this very day, thank you!
I would also like to thank Sebidee and Caligula for their great modding guides!
Thanks to ByzantineBasileus for his Greenskin Orc Boyz Great Axe Mod which I borrowed for a little for testing purposes, if you end up don't liking my mod by any means try his https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1877556958
And I would like to thank you!
Whatever you liked my mod or not thanks a bunch for giving it a try!

Bad news boys, It's seems that my latest updates for fixing a problem with unique indexes broke everything.
I will try to fix this in the coming days by re-releasing all my mods.
Sorry for the inconvenience and please be patient.
