The Eight Peak Alliance

Description
Description
NOTE: This mod is NOT lore friendly.
This mod was made for Da Modding Den's Mod Jam #5 - Kill Your Darlings. It is a silly addition to the dwarf roster that is hopefully fun for shenanigans. If there is interest, I might continue to expand this into its own proper subfaction.

Two best friends, Belegar Ironhammer and Skarsnik together ruled Karak Eight Peaks in harmony. Alas, a faction of unruly greenskins betrayed their alliance and drove them both from their home. This unique period in history gave birth to a union of two otherwise disparate cultures. Two of the units that would take to the battlefield under this combined flag are included here.

Slayer Squig Hopper - All slayers seek to fulfill their oath and die gloriously in combat, but a few that spent time in the Eight Peaks of old have learned from their Night Goblin allies and have taken to riding explosive squigs in order to achieve their goals and wipe out entire groups of enemies at the same time.

Slayer Squig Hoppers are recruitable from the Tier 3 slayer building and are buffed by any skills or technologies that target slayers.

Bearded Trolls - A strange phenomenon occurred shortly after the new, united Eight Peaks had formed. Affectionately called Troll Hammers by some, these trolls we born with rather impressive dwarf-like beards and thought of themselves as just any other dawi. Taken in with open arms, they were equipped with proper runic hammers and now seek to take back their home.

Bearded Trolls are recruitable from the Tier 3 barracks building and are buffed by any skills or technologies that target hammerers.

Summary

Slayer Squig Hopper
  • New Dwarf Unit: Slayer Squig Hopper
  • Single Entity Explosive Slayer Unit
  • Proper Squig Riding Animations

Bearded Trolls
  • New Dwarf Unit: Bearded Trolls
  • Armour-Piercing
  • Regeneration
  • High Leadership Monstrous Infantry

Future Plans
  • Potentially expand the mod with more units and maybe into a proper subfaction if there is interest.

The next one (which has gotten delayed heavily due to the aforementioned busy) is a more complete mining expansion. Groups the current mining mods together with a good amount of new stuff.
Then I have a half-done mod to expand the Gazul content.

Great to hear Greenphoenix23! what projects are you actively on now?
greenphoenix23  [author] 1 Jun @ 8:10am 
Yeah, been very busy of late which has eaten into my modding time. I would still love to flesh this out more, though!

I do have other projects in the works that are higher priority though. But I do have fondness for this silly project. Squig mount for lords sounds great, though!

@diggingdwarf26
I like that idea! When I have the time I'll see if I can work that in here.

@Demian
Shhh, everything is fine here. No book needed.

the dawi have fallen... millions must take the slayer oath...

if you feel compelled by the idea, you should add doomseekers mounted on mangler squigs when the dlc releases
