Lava Spider Expansion

Description
This mod expands the Lava Spiders introduced in the Greenskin update. It will also introduce Lava Spider Mounts to Lords and Heroes introduced by Wez Speshul and Expanded Roster - Greenskins - Goblin Pack where appropriate. The two mods are not required for this one to function.

Lava Spider Riders (New Unit)
  • +6 Leadership compared to regular version.
  • +8 AP melee damage, -7 base melee damage compared to regular version.
  • Melee attacks are flaming.
  • 40% Flame Resistance.
  • In campaign, Lava Spider Riders are a reward for completing a 1st level Waaagh.
  • Any effects that will improve a regular Spider Rider unit (spear version) will improve Lava Spider Riders.
  • No cost difference between these and regular Spider Riders.

Lava Spider (Mount)
  • New mount for Forest Goblin Shamans, Goblin Big Bosses, Forest Goblin Warbosses (Expanded Roster), Goblin Warbosses (Wez Speshul) and Goblin Shamans (Wez Speshul)
  • +6 Leadership
  • +111 AP melee damage, -97 Base melee damage over Giant Spider mount for Goblin Big Bosses.
  • +123 AP melee damage, -108 Base melee damage over Giant Spider mount for Forest Goblin Warbosses and Goblin Warbosses.
  • +86 AP melee damage, -75 Base melee damage over Giant Spider mount for Goblin Shamans.
  • Flaming melee attacks.
  • 40% Flame Resistance.
  • Gained in the campaign at the same time as the Giant Spider mount. Players will get both mounts and can swap between them based on the fire resistance and flaming attack presence of anticipated enemies.
  • No cost difference between mounting a Giant Spider and mounting a Lava Spider.

Lava Arachnarok Spider (Mount)
  • New mount for Goblin Great Shamans and Forest Goblin Warbosses (Expanded Roster). Tinitt Foureyes will not get a Lava Arachnarok Spider mount since his default Arachnarok Spider already has a unique name and appearance.
  • Stats compare to the regular Arachnarok Spider mount in the same way as the Arachnarok Spider unit compares to the Lava Arachnarok Spider (+10 Leadership, +12 Melee Attack, +8 Melee Defence, Flaming melee and ranged attack exchanges poison for flaming missiles & replacing 14 Base Missile Strength for AP Missile Strength)
  • Has Flaming Thorax and Arachnaruption abilities like the unit.
  • Gained at rank 24 in the campaign.
  • 500 gold more (custom battle) to recruit and 125 more upkeep over regular Arachnarok Spider. Same cost differences as a regular and lava Arachnarok Spider.

Should we consider supporting the Warband Upgrade mod?

I've finally been able to get back to my gaming PC and have been able to update the mod.

Thanks.

My vision for the spiders is to have lava spider riders as the more elite version that is on the tier 4 spider building. Arachnarok is expensive for the midgame and standard spider riders really do underperform in the midgame.

@warbossrok Don't forget to find a way to remove the Lava Spiders from the RoR panel. I suggest going to Da Modding Den. They'll help you out.

oh cool! I'll consider it!

I'm sorry, I'm not going to do what you're requesting. If you want, you can create a submod and I'll link it on the description page of this mod.

Gave an award for this and am prepared to give a bunch more if they're recruitable
