Description
SUMMARY
Probably not Lore-friendly at this point... kind of.
Re-skin ONLY
Norsca Re-skin (Viking Theme)

World Walkers Faction Colors Changed:
Orange --> Black
Yellow --> Red
Map Color is now pure Black

Marauders, Spearmen, Great Weapons, Hunters, Hunters (Javelins), Horsemen, Horsemen (Throwing Axes):
1. Kislev Kossar vest added w/ darkened texture to match Norscan Leather.
2. All normal Marauder shoulder pads and bracers replaced with Marauder champion type to keep the unique Norscan look.
3. Custom Berserker/Marauder legs and boots used for all standard marauders, to keep those little legs warm in Scandinavia.
4. Helmets changed to viking style with the Armoured Kossar and Dwarf eyeguards and also Danish eyeguards from Atilla.
5. All models have mix of red, dark brown, gray, blonde and (alternate) blonde hair.
6. New Norscan themed shields using faction colors and Nordic designs.

Chariots:
1. Uses same theme and style as the other basic marauders.
3. Since the vanilla charioteer had a unique helmet, I gave them a marauder champion style helmet that I think looks good.

Marauder Berserkers:
1. Added Bear pelts and Wolf Heads to add that old school norse bear jerkin look.
2. All models have mix of red, dark brown, gray, blonde and (alternate) blonde hair.
3. Rule of cool made me add some helmets to them.

Marauder Horsemasters:
1. Same as marauder Horsemen... but with capes.

Marauder Champions:
1. Kislev Kossar vest added w/ darkened texture to match Norscan Leather.
2. Helmets changed to viking style with the Armoured Kossar and Dwarf eyeguards and also Danish eyeguards from Atilla.
3. All models have mix of red, dark brown, gray, blonde and a head covered by chainmail.
4. Faction color cloaks added.
5. Great weapons changed to axes instead of clubs.

War Mammoth and Soulcrusher Crewman:
1. Same as Marauder Champions.

Marauder Chieftain:
1. Kislev Kossar vest added w/ darkened texture to match Norscan Leather.
2. Use Marauder Champion Armor, but keep ornamentation from vanilla armor.
3. Helmets changed to viking style with the Armoured Kossar, Dwarf and Danish eyegaurds.
4. All models have mix of red, dark brown, gray, blonde and (alternate) blonde hair.

Wulfrik the Wanderer:
1. Gave him big round chieftain shield so he is a little more Norscan and kept Mr. Skinner on it.

Killgore, Azrik, Kihar, Burplesmirk:
1. Main thing was to make them unique and more Norscan. Each of these in their vanilla models are just copies of vanilla units, for example: Azrik's model is just a blue lord of change, Burplesmirk is just an exalted Great Unclean one, Killgore is just a vanilla Khorne Lord and same for Kihar with a Slaanesh Lord model.
2. Wanted Azrik to have a viking raven theme, while Burplesmirk could have his own little armor pieces and viking helmet.
3. Killgore and Kihar I wanted to make them look like Norscans, however Norscans devoted to their respective gods.

Purpose was to make Norsca very on the nose with the whole Viking Aesthetic. The armoured kossar always had that Kiev Rus' look and I figured why don't I just make the the literal analogue viking faction 'NORSCA' Nordic. First thing was to mess with the helmet models and shorten them and mold them to match the eyeguard. Once that was done, I worked on adding the Kossar vest and swapping the old vanilla marauder armor with uniquely Norscan armours and textures. Goal was to make the Norscans look like they actually live in a cold climate and also Vikings are cool so there is that.

@Val'kyr Strauss gave me the idea to use dwarf eyeguards as well as kislev ones and I think they turned out well.
@ King Harold requested the blonde hair and I think it works great.
@Xenofang had the Idea of giving cloaks to the Champions and I think it looks badass.
@LikeABith gave me the idea to reskin Wulfrik.
@Ass Bandit nordic style shields.
@everyone else if I didn't mention you. Thanks for the ideas. I am very proud of this mod and it has been alot of fun making.

WARNING:
For some reason Norsca and Warriors of Chaos share Marauder Horsemen and Horsemaster Models. All the other marauder units are separate so be warned Warriors of chaos Marauder Horsemen WILL ALSO be reskinned. However, Horsemen and Horsemasters are the only units affected this way. For compatability with a Warriors of Chaos Reskin Mod. Place this mod below it in the load order and it should fix it.

Compatibility: Mod only edits the 'hu1c/chs' model folder for just those units(mentioned above). Should not affect any other mods unless they also affect those unit folders. Also, NO STAT CHANGES, this mod is a re-skin only.

Stay safe out there kids

Thank you and have a blessed day.

P.S. Legacy version of this mod is here.

The mod still works, fellas. If you're using another reskin that effects Norsca then it ain't gonna.

anyone knows if there's a submod to use this with Tribes of the North? because whlie the reskins appear in custom battles they don't when fighting in campaign

for me this doesn't overhaul javelin marauders, mounted or not, or mounted axe throwing marauders.
