Exalted Daemons for Champions of Chaos - A Warband Expansion

Description
Updated to 6.1
Added Skullreapers and Wrathmongers to Valkia and Be'lakor

Updated to 5.0
Mercenary Ogre Bulls can now be upgraded to Plague Ogres when playing Festus or Be'lakor. UI was also fixed to fit plague ogres and bile trolls.

Regarding 4.0 Update
The original idea of this mod was to make the exalted variants of the daemon infantry units available to the Champions of Chaos. CA finally made this baseline in 4.0, so people who only want this functionality can safely ignore this mod from now on.
Therefore I removed my implementation for exalted daemonic infantry from this mod. The Upgrades for cavalry and monster units still work though and I plan to keep them functional. Please refer to the old mod description or screenshots to see which units become upgradable with this mod


Old Description
Adds the ability to upgrade the Daemon units you receive as Gifts of Chaos to their exalted variants for the Champions of Chaos factions. This mod will NOT make any of those units recruitable normally but use the Warband Upgrades mechanic. Therefore the following lords receive new unit types:

Vilitch -> Exalted Pink Horrors
Valkia -> Exalted Bloodletters
Festus -> Exalted Plaguebearers
Azazel -> Exalted Daemonettes


Lords will also receive the following upgrades:
Every Warriors of Chaos Lord can dedicate Chaos Furies after researching the corresponding branding iron tech
Valkia and Be'lakor can now upgrade Exalted Bloodletters to Bloodcrushers
Vilitch and Be'lakor can now upgrade Flamers of Tzeentch to Exalted Flamers or Burning Chariots or Changebringers
Festus and Be'lakor can upgrade Exalted Plaguebearers to Plague Drones or Pox Riders of Nurgle
Azazel and Be'lakor can upgrade Daemonettes to Seeker units
Azazel and Be'lakor can upgrade Seeker Chariots to Hellflayers or Exalted Seeker Chariots

Technology requirement was moved to the technology that enables marked units which also affects Bela'kor.

Submod for Archaon, Kholek and Sigvald:

Alright I did some looking around, found a mod for the minotaurs, but nothing for the blood shrine. So, could I perhaps convince you that a blood shrine is really just a bunch of bloodletters on top of a vehicle, and could reasonably be an upgrade for either exalted bloodletters or bloodcrushers?
No problem at all if you disagree, or just don't want to add another unit, but it's worth a try anyway :)

Fair enough, both of them would probably fit better as gifts of chaos. In fact, I feel like both would be perfectly fine for vanilla gifts, but oh well. I'll see if I can find another way to add them, thanks for the quick response

@Sometimes_Consistent correct, as there is no intuitive progression possible for these units. Marauders suddenly becoming minotaurs or knights becoming a bloodshrine would feel odd

Hello, am I correct in thinking that there's no Minotaurs of Khorne or Bloodshrines included? As far as I can tell, those are the only Daemons of Chaos units that are still missing with this mod.

@Darth Kraven I only tested this on new campaigns, but since the mod is essentially script free I would think updating it mid campaign could work

A little question the update also applies to an ongoing campaign or I have to start a new one?

ok i thought you meant "outside" of the champions
Dirty Dan  [author] 5 Jun, 2024 @ 1:12pm 
@ADRIEN crossbowlov WARAD druchii that was only regarding the champions of chaos (Valkia, Vilitch, Festus and Azazel). It may be possible that using the Submod for Warriors of Chaos alone could be enough to give him the exalted daemonette upgrade
