Masked Mustachio's Empire Stalkers

Description
My wife and I really like Chameleon Stalker units that the lizardmen get so I made this mod to bring them into the Empire roster. I don't normally like to mess with or use unit mods as I don't like screwing with faction balances, but Chameleon Stalkers are just a ton of fun and are not overpowered late game units so I don't mind using this one.

These stalkers have the same stats and chevron growth as chameleon stalkers. They use the same melee and missile weapons as well (but they look different and the guns sound like guns).

You can recruit these units in the Tap House (Level 1 Bar) because I wanted it to be something 2nd level that would make sense about hiring some local folk and more units need to be hired in bars.

Any talent, skill, or technology that modifies the basic Swordsmen or Free Company units will affect these units. Also I used the normal empire attrition which is...empire troops are damaged by all attrition types. Kind of annoying but since these are Privateers I also made them immune to deep sea attrition for kicks.

I made the units mixed gender. 2 female and 3 male head variants. They each also have 5 torso options with 3 leg options for a fair amount of diversity while still looking very cohesive. They sound like normal free company because you cannot mix sounds...otherwise I would have mixed in some female voices as well.

Check out my other mods I made here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/id/lumparoo/myworkshopfiles/?appid=594570

Also please rate my mods so that they can get rated and noticed by other players with similar interests. I do really appreciate it.

Hey I sent u a friend invite. Just wondering how u added new face models.? I'm a modder btw :)

ok, im just a giant tard, they were shooting but i couldnt see it because i had a mod that disables projectile tracers. derp me
that being said they are still listed as "swordsmen" in the unit type, maybe if you called them "shock infantry" or "close quarters infantry" or "skirmishers"

Do they shoot when you charge? Because they are precursor missile users so they won't just shoot. They need to be attacking someone before they will shoot. Otherwise yeah it would probably be a mod conflict.

not sure if it is a mod conflict, but mine are counted as swordsmen and dont shoot

Yeah that might be something I add to the pirates in general as I do enjoy playing the pirate coast. Thanks for the suggestion.

Is there any chance u can make them available for sartosa too? most unit mods for sartosa a super unbalanced they look great and a full of great ideas but playing them is always like useing a god mode. I would love to bring units like this one on my ship. They alredy look like they belong there and fit the sartosa playstyle melee and and gunpowder. i would love for them to get the "sartosa"bonis and have rowdy like other sartosa units but manly i would love to play this unit with aranessa it would be a fit made in heaven

nice one, i like that they are also mixed gender, which is something I could see the Empire doing just like the Elves expect in the name of Sigmar!

Mr. Soul, that would be a very feasible concept knowing what I know. I considered doing mixed genders on all of my recent mods but mostly wanted to release them quickly. Might still go back and mix them up a bit for kicks. But yeah that is something that has been in the back of my mind for a while now.
