AOV519's Exalted Daemons [BETA]

"As well as being transformed into a Daemon Prince, a servant of the Dark Gods may well become possessed by the spirit of a daemon. Such creatures are not as powerful as Daemon Princes as they must expend much of their energy maintaining their hold on the mortal realm. These Exalted Daemons, as they are known, often follow Daemon Princes and Greater Daemons into battle." - Warhammer Armies: Hordes of Chaos (6th Edition)

My first mod for Total War: Warhammer III. This mod adds Exalted Daemons, originating from the 6th Edition army book for Chaos, as Heroes to Custom Battles for all Daemon factions as well as the campaign, but currently only for the Legion of Chaos.

FEATURES:
Each Chaos God has their own Exalted Daemon type, with combined Daemon factions such as the Legion of Chaos having access to all four. On top of being strong single entity monsters, all Exalted Daemons have access to mixed spell lores in battle, with the exception of Khorne who instead has a few additional non-magical abilities. Think of them as Hero-tier Daemon Princes in terms of gameplay. In addition, all four types of Exalted Daemon have the option to take wings as a "mount".

RECRUITMENT IN CAMPAIGN:
Currently, only Daniel (aka the Daemon Prince) can recruit them in the campaign. To recruit an Exalted Daemon as the Legion of Chaos, you must first unlock them by having a sufficient amount of their respective god's Daemonic Glory, but you don't need to dedicate yourself to that god. Once unlocked, they can then be found in the appropriate Hero recruitment category, awaiting recruitment. For example, Exalted Daemons of Khorne can be found in the newly renamed "Khornate Heroes" category, the same as Bloodreapers. Each Exalted Daemon type is capped at 1 maximum, which can be increased to 2 through the Daemonic Glory system, and also share their agent cap with their respective god's Lesser Daemon Heroes. In addition, some campaign buffs that affect Lesser Daemon Heroes will also affect Exalted Daemons of the same god.

TO DO:
- Maybe overhaul this mod completely for version 2.0+. Due to the sheer amount of work that will be involved, don't expect it to happen any time soon, if at all.
- Skill point dump?

BUGS & ISSUES:
- Slanneshi Exalted Daemons don't always have names when recruiting them, for some strange reason.
- Some of the portholes and unit cards are bugged, especially when the Army Carousel mod is used.
