Imperial Foot for Empire

This mod adds a lore-friendly and balanced unit for the Empire.






-a lore-friendly addition from 4th edition tabletop (the same edition of war wagons) and is balanced for vanilla gameplay (they are armored but still not elite infantry to preserve Empire design choices).

-recruited from Reiksfort and Altdorf Reiksguard landmark but also smithy required. Both buildings add a single unit of Imperial Foot to the garrison.

-intended to eventually replace swordsmen and/or supplement them.

-affected by all the tech and faction bonuses for infantry units. Affected by swordsmen first red tree and reiksguard second red tree of the lords.

-save compatible.

"Though known mostly for their expertise in cavalry warfare, the Reiksguard are normally divided into a mounted arm known as the Reiksguard Knights, or the Imperial Cavalry, and an infantry arm called the Reiksguard Swordsmen, or the Imperial Foot. Although the infantry arm does not have the glamorous image of their cavalry counterparts, they are nonetheless a crack and flexible fighting force. They are based near the Emperor's palace and can be seen parading through the streets, escorting the Emperor on state occasions, and patrolling the city walls when the Emperor is on leave. The Reiksguard foot regiments are normally protected by both shields and heavily-armoured suits of full plate, adorned with a dazzling array of plumes and ribbons and kept polished to a mirror-like finish. They are armed with heavy swords, halberds or great two-handed swords that they fight in conjunction with other Imperial regiments, providing a flexible and battle-hardened support unit that provides exceptional aid in offence and defence." source: https://warhammerfantasy.fandom.com/wiki/Grand_Order_of_the_Reiksguard
