Isabella Von Carstein

Hello warhammer-players. After more then 2 weeks!! of pain, stress and agony we did it!
Behold, Isabella Von Carstein as the FIRST brand new and UNIQUE hero.

LORE-FRIENDLY as much as gameplay allowed me to so i would say that she is for 95% true to the lore. She has her unique item (blood chalice of bathori) gave her 2 mount variants, this might or might not be accurate..you, as player, can allways decide not to unlock the mounts.

Vampire Counts players start a new campaign with their starting lord + his army of their choice, AND Isabella as agent allready on the map (added through startpos changes, read "things of importance" a bit further in the mod description). You do not have to recruit her, she is allready there. Isabella is a legendary hero, that means she CAN NOT DIE. She can only be wounded.
Isabella is a fully functional agent (both on battlefield and campaign) with hero actions.

A skill tree tailored together to fit her role. She gets traits and ancillaries just like any regular agent.
and a new line in her skill tree for her own unique (custom made) abilities. Her abilities have the overcast method just like regular magical spells. so decide well when you want to "overboost" your ability to receive an improved effect, at the cost of a longer cooldown.

Isabella performs the role as countess (benefitting the campaign gameplay with buffs) and support (her unique abilities are powerful augments) she is a capable fighter, but that's not the role that she should do..leave that to the dedicated meelee fighters like Vlad, Vampire Lord or Wight king.

Isabella has her own unique textures, portraits and unit card. When she reaches a high enough level she can learn "the awakening" which lets her summon her elite bodyguard (the dread guard, in the lore she was allways mentioned as fighting inside a ring of guards). The dread guard are a new NOT-recruitable unit( also with their own retextures) that can only be called in with the awakening ability. It does not have a "can not use if army is full" that means that even if the army with Isabella in it allready has 20/20 unit slots, she can still use the awakening twice (regular cast is sword+ shield version AND overcast is great weapon version) bringing the units to 22/20.

THING OF IMPORTANCE!!

1)This mod changed the startpos, so i can not promise that it is compatible with other mods who also alter this. Most likely it will not work together at all! There can only be 1 startpos change.
other then that, this mod should be compatible with any other mod out there.

2)When playing a multiplayer campaign, the legendary lord of your chosing and isabella will spawn at the same place. This results in that both isabella or your legendary lord CAN NOT MOVE. this can be solved by disbanding isabella (she will become wounded, and return in 5 turns) so that your legendary lord is able to move again. This is a base game problem and i'm looking to fix it. For now, the disband-method works just fine.


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

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 ( made her with care, and tested her plenty of time before releasing)
