Goblin Wolf Rat Riders

Description
This mod adds the following units for the Greenskins, respectively:
-Goblin Wolf Rat Riders
-Goblin Wolf Rat Rider Archers

They are available through the following building chains:
-Occupied Hell Pit
-Occupied Skavenblight
-Karak Eight Peaks (Greenskins)

Considering the fact that They are pretty much low tier units, They are not really worth the trouble of conquering any of those cities just to get them and should therefore be treated mainly as trophy units.

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

*BALANCE*

They are pretty much slightly stronger Goblin Wolf Riders so nothing crazy, pretty sure that they are Vanilla friendly.
NOTICE: The units' stats screenshot was taken with the unit size setting set to large, so expect more HP and unit models if you are playing on Ultra.

*COMPATIBILITY*

As far as I know this mod works with pretty much everything that do not mess too much with vanilla units.
I'm playing the game with 100+ different mods and everything is working fine!
The mod is NOT save compatible.
If you want these Goblin Wolf Rat Riders in your campaign you'll have to start a new one.

*KNOWN ISSUES*
-These units have the default Wolf riders voice pack: this means that you are going to hear default Wolf sounds every now and then.
-While the Wolf Rat skeleton seems to be fully compatible with the default Wolf's one, these units are using the stock Goblin Wolf Riders animations.
This means that you are NOT going to see any exclusive animations tied to the default Wolf Rat animation.

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Let me be straight with you...when the mod status change from updated to outdated....if you start to spam in the comment section things like "update pls, OMG UPDATE, can we have an update my good sir?, UpDaTe!1!1!1" and similar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

*QA*

-"SFO?"
As a matter of fact I'm officially retired from SFO/Overhaul related mods.
As always: If you already have previous experience in SFO submodding feel free to make an SFO version out of any of my mods that are currently missing one, I will link your submods if you provide me with a link.

And that's all I guess!
Credits time!

Thanks to Phazer for RME editor!
Thanks to H3ro and his great tool!
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!
And I would like to thank you!
Whatever you liked my mod or not thanks a bunch for giving it a try!

Let's be brutally honest now: there are countless modders that are WAY more talented than me and that would deserve your money more than me.
That said, If you have grown to like my works so much to the point that you want to express your appreciation or just put a smile on my face...well: I will not stop you ;) .
You have my gratitude for all the support you can throw at me, independently by the donation's sum: you are all equals to me and I do thank you all.
From my part I can assure you that your donations will not be wasted, in fact I would mainly use them to:
-complete the Total War Warhammer DLC collection and thus expand my modding possibilities
-PC related things

I have officially concluded my modding journey on this workshop.
As always: feel free to make any kind of submods for any of my mods.

Sadly no.
Skaven do have a rat rider animation but It's for the Brood horror which are similar but also different.
The only way to achieve that Is to either remap Wolf Rat animations to the Brood Horrors (which would probably be a bit odd) or to make a custom animation from scratch and I don't make custom animations.

Love this, is there any chance you could make skaven wolfrat riders? I think they did exist to some degree in Warhammer Fantasy Battles and they'd be a fun (but odd) addition to the skaven roster

very cool ideas nonetheless! love the units

@Ebonhearted Not sure how much these units can make a difference with that situation: good 'ol Skarsnik seems pretty much screwed anyway if you ask me.
Plus, the only Greenskins' building good enough to tie these units with (and that would make sense) would be the Rat Trapperz building which cost and building time are way too low: the risk of any Greenskins' AI spamming these units since early game would be too high at that point.
The only other thing I could think of Is to give a random chance to get these units each time you win a Crooked Moon vs Skaven battle through scripts, but I don't know anything about script stuff sadly.

could you make these recruitable for skarsnik before he takes eight peaks to make his campaign a bit easier?
