Saurus Halberds

Description
DESCRIPTION:
I am not probably the only one angry, that marching saurus with halberds are on the literally loading screen for lizardmen, but saurus halberds do not exist ?! So i made them!

This mod add 2 custom units - saurus halberds and saurus halberds with shields. I tried to make the new units balanced for campaign in vanilla and hopefully there are no bugs. If you encounter any problems, just comment/message me and I will try to solve them.

!UPDATE!
+BLESSED VARIANT
Now available with a blessed variant. I am not that good in scripting yet, so they are only few missions how to obtain them, launching on certain turns. In the future, when I get better at scripting, I want to update this mod once more with more and more randomized missions and better optimized script.

FAQ:
"But do the units benefit from lord skills/technologies?" - Of course they do! They benefit from the exactly same skills/technologies as normal saurus spears. You can recruit these units from the same buildings as normal saurus spears. However, this unit is much stronger than saurus spears, so there will be only limited number of them available.

"Is this mod save-game compatible?" - Yes it is.

COMPATABILITY:
It is a simple unit mod, so it should be compatible with almost all mods existing. However I do not play with major overhaul mods (like SFO) so u will need to try it for yourself.

@MiningforMorbius
Hello, i tried changing the screenshot to the one you have requested, but unfortunately it does look really bad so it did not work out. If you have any better Lizardmen Art/good screenshots you would like to use you here as a unit card, you can send it to me. Or you can try to make it yourself and then send it to me. Ideally in png format, 60x130 pixels.

this is a must have mod for me, but i was wondering if you could change the unit card to not be a screenshot of ingame, possibly even use the image you've highlighted in the description or something?

Im glad to see Saurus getting some new varients. I don't really like skinks all that much, but was getting tired of using the same two units in all of my armies (that arnt dinosaurs of course)

That is one thing that has always annoyed the fuck out of me. I thought there would have been a bigger saurus with the two handed halbeard, with less models in the group compared to regular saurus. but nope, spear bois were the closest there was llol

An odd unit to have but a great mid tier between regular saurus units and temple guards, despite temple guards are just upgraded saurus, a mid range saurus is nice.

Update ! - Blessed version available
so far there are just few scripted missions launching on certain turns. I will probably update this in the future

@Murloc Wouldn't be bad but not urgent. After all, blessed spawns don't have much difference compared to normal ones.

Huh, I never even noticed before!
Murloc  [author] 2 Nov, 2021 @ 8:03am 
Btw what do you think? Should I make a blessed version too? 🤔
Murloc  [author] 2 Nov, 2021 @ 8:02am 
@Серафим Вэйлoр Yeah, but if they hold a spear in 1 hand, they can also hold a halberd like this
