all dark elves now look like transgender

Is not lore accurate. Dark elves don´t use heavy armor.

I'm glad you asked! I'm deathly afraid of women's bodies! I've also made a mod that gives Dwarf Slayers armour for what it's worth:

I just make these mods for the factions I play. But don't let that stop you from lazy ad hominem.

true chads find armor to be the hotter alternative

You mentioned that the light armor looks were ghastly, but I cannot imagine Heavy Armored Witch Elves, cause that is the antithesis of what they are supposed to be. Sorceress I could buy, though I'd like the option to have some half-naked (more for character IE some like armor some don't).

would've been amazing to somehow mod out the capes on witch elves and death hags. sisters look so cool with no capes. witches would've, too.

amazing mod, we should have more work like this one. all true dark elf fans who dont want their teenage edgy erotic fantasies fulfilled but rather want to see a fearsome dark elven military machine in action support this mod

I'm kinda' inclined to agree. The heavier armour suits some units more than others. I would've gone for lighter armour for many of the units but, as of the time I made this mod at least, the only armour mesh that worked with the skeletons of the female dark elf models was the female DE lord mesh. I tried a number of other DE armour meshes and they generally ended up looking pretty nightmarish; all stretched limbs and stuff.

Don't know looks kinda weird man maybe if you went with black arc or standard dark elf armor they would look less comically over armored

Thank you for this mod (as well as the other version). All units look so much better, especially the sisters of slaughter. They all look more in line with the rest of the dark elven army. Great mod!

Oh, thank god. So sick of High Fantasy's ridiculous insistence on naked women warriors. Get me some armour, biatches!

For what it's worth, I do have a mod which I can't publish 'cause it's basically someone elses reskin that I don't have permission for, where I cover off the dwarf slayer as well. Dark Elves and Dwarves just happen to be my factions.
That, and I'm deathly afraid of womens bodies.

Troll - they don't care, it's about selling to thirsty Incel.

Honestly the only problem I have with the Dark Elves running around half naked is that they live in a frozen wasteland. Then again so do the Norscans. I'm not sure Games Workshop understand how freezing temperature works.

make one without the breastplate dude Dark Elves FTW

Yo this is great. I'm thinking of making the entire Dark Elf roster female with armour, and I got some interesting tools we can use. Up for collabing on it?

Nothing remotely wrong with thinking armor looks cool, I concur in fact!

Just an FYI that this mod might need an update, I only could get the armor to display for the death hag.

Hey Cvlsoldier, any of Dryrain's mods that affect the look of any of the units touched in this mod will at least be partially incompatible with this mod. I expect that the game'll use one mod over the other if you have them both in your load order, making one of them wasted hard drive space. Sorry about that.

Does this work with Dryrain's mod?

Hi Uku, this version of the mod doesn't change with stats as defference to the balance of the game. If you'd prefer that the stats reflect the armour, you can use the sister mod instead: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1185601665

so they have armor but its paper armor.....makes zero sense but ok

Of course you can !
And thank you for your hard work

@Abo lo6fa: Oh man, those are really well captured! Can I add them as images for this and the sister mod?

Thank you !

Hi everyone. just an FYI: the Supreme Sorceresses, new Sorceresses, Crone, Sisters of Slaughter and Warlocks all have armour too, as of the latest update. I've left the Regiments of Renown untouched, however.

Witch elves are not cultists of Slannesh. They are worshipers of Khaine, who is universal elven god of war.

The combat bikini is acutally a tribute to slaanesh, the god of pleasure, lust, passion, love decadence, excess and spiked dildos. So theres a point why they are wearing that less. Just for all those curios about it.

Huh, I'll be honest, I didn't even know there was a new DLC coming out soon. I haven't been following this game closely for a little while. I'll see, but if she uses a different skeleton to the existing units it's not going to be possible without a bespoke, customly rigged model. That'd be a bit above my skills, I'm afraid.

Will you make an updated version for Queen and the Crone DLC? Crone would love to wear plate armor.

Great mod btw, Death Hag's leading witch elves into the fray with a more professional look is 10x better than vanilla

I am aware you are able to change your name freely on Steam, though when I created this account when I was 13, I have kept the same name. I chose the name because at the time COD: World at War was "It". 45 is for 1945. If the name is an afront to you, I can assure that I am of no way shape or form affiliated to the NSGWP, or it's elite troopers, the SS.

Do I want to know why you've named youself after the SS?

Not a cliche', Rollo, whom became the Count of Normandy (my ancestor) absolutely fought half naked, sometimes full on nude! It is a fact. The Norsemen would eat mushrooms and go into battle. Fact. gtfo with your nonsense

me too i think we dont go to war half naked, specially for women, which should wear armour
always in fantasy women are almost naked when men have armour, so i take this mods to make women in darkelve more professionnal and serious soldiers.

and viking didnt fight half naked eitheir, that is a cliché so there is no true reason, only marketing, to justify naked people from norsca

Nice mod! The combat bikini really isnt my thing great work!

@Rare Wendy's Good point.

REEEEEE

@Crimson Viper I don't tend to play chaos so it doesn't bother me so much. I might very well make a mod that give Chaos units more armour if I end up playing Chaos.

I'm also aware that in similar mods, there are a few people who, ironically enough, are getting uppity that such mods exist. Necessarily, you cared enough to click onto this mod and interpret this as a prudish hatred of lore rather than what is was advertised as. I'm just confused why the mod that makes women wear armour is more controversial than the mod that changes faction colours, or adds new units.

This might seem a little antagonistic, But the lore was written to justify sexualised dark elven women after the business decision was made to sexualise them. It's not so much a lore reason for why they look like that then a business one. I'm not against that, it's Games Workshop's franchise, and sexuality isn't something to be ashamed of, but I shouldn't have to be beholden to someone else's marketing strategy.

Funny watching people get uppity over half naked women when Chaos is packed with half naked men. Read the lore, and realize why they run around like psychos half naked.

This is badass. Also subbing just for the hilarious opening description.

I think it's good that there's variety. Not a fan of it personally, but this is the beauty of a modding scene. If someone wants to do something that they like, adding or removing armors, by all means do it! The beauty is in the fact that skilled people can add far more variety to the game, and the fact you can choose whether to get it or not. People need to chill and stop being so negative~ I love it nonetheless, it looks pretty well done! I'd look forward to your other mods and see what else you can throw up, maybe something may catch my eyes! :D

Hey everyone! There's now a stat chaning version available: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1185601665

I'm not going to be downloading it, since I like them as they are. But it does look pretty sweet. Would be nice to see it as a separate unit at some point in time.
Good work!

Great mod! I'm of the same mind. These skins look awesome.

@Truth Warrior I'm pretty new to the modding scene, I have a vague idea of how to change stats. I'm working on a stat change version now, but just be aware that this version might not be out for a little while if I have trouble.

@HeyMan85 Well that's nice and constructive. I especially appreciate the homophobic slur because the mod isn't to your personal tastes.

What a fa*g mod, looks so ugly.
