drazan's black orcs pack

Description
Hello warhammer players and strategy gamers. I am a massive orcs and goblins fan so i decided to expand their unit rosters in a lore-friendly way. Stronger even, most of my units are present in the 8th edition tabletop which this game is based on.
There are 5 mod packs, each belonging to a species within the "greenskin society"
1. orcs
2. savage orcs
3. black orcs
4. night goblins
5. forest goblins
The reason why i changed from individual unit mods (that were allready on the steam workshop) to these species pack, is to save me alot of work. Packs are easier to expand, and to edit for me. The "benefit" you, as the subscriber, get is more units and everything new comes automatically without needing additional mods (aslong as the new units represent the species pack you have subscribed to)
As allready said, every unit is 100% lore friendly and most can even be found in the 8th edition tabletop.
If you like my work, feel free to give it a favourite/rating (helps spread it)
Thanks for reading this intro, now on to the actual pack info!

----------------------------------------------------------

This "black orcs" pack currently holds 2 new units.

1. Black Orcs (Shields)
in the 8'th edition army book, on page 106 it states " the entire unit may take shields for 1 extra point per model"
they can be recruited both in campaign and in custom battles/multiplayer.
they can be recruited in campaign from the tier 4 infantry barracks.

2. Black Orcs (Dual Weapons)
in the 8'th edition army book, on page 39 it explains the black orc special rule "armed to da teef"
to display this in game, i gave them a grand total of 5 different weapon models. this include 2 swords, 1 axe, 1 mace and 1 two-handed axe that they use with 1 hand (this is realistic, it can be seen in 8th edition army book on page 78 where the orc warboss use a large 2handed axe in 1 hand, combined with a sword. and on page 82 where the second last black orc model use a two-handed axe with a sword)
the total of 5 weapons creates plenty of weapon combinations in-game to properly display "armed to da teef"
they can be recruited both in campaign and in custom battles/multiplayer.
they can be recruited in campaign from the tier 4 infantry barracks.

Statwise they are balanced (in my opinion) but if you may have a different opinion then i would be more then happy to hear it.
This also includes any possible bug/error or other issue you may find (i made these units with care, and tested them plenty of time before releasing them)

---------------------------------------
my mods are free to use, and to re-use (i will even guide you how to edit tables to your perssonal taste if needed) credits, and donations however are allways welcome paypal.me/DrazanD
---------------------------------------

enjoy, drazan

Crashes in the campaign. Can't begin a battle and crashes in the loading screen. As soon as i deleted 3 of my black orcs with shields i could start the battle.

Hey do you have any plans to update your Orc mods? I'm a Greenskins player myself and love the mod packs. However my total war crashes whenever any of your units are in a game.

Hello drazan! Are you planning to update your greenskin mods and if not is there any chance you can let me update them with full credit to you?

I second that. I was just about to begin a first greenskin campaign with the new squigs only to find out most mods I had my eye on for a greenskin campaign were not being updated anymore :(
