can we have a version without capes on the officer?

Are the Reiksguard units going to join us once IE releases in a few weeks?

awsome work, I love all your modded reiksguard units but this is my favoite, this is how it should be the finest warriors of the empire can mess with all foes, even with the dispicable chosens of chaos....a must have mod for all fans of the Empire of Man....HAIL SIGMAR!!!

please update

does this mod need to be updated for the new patch?

Damn - subbed to this and didn't realise they are very OP - pretty much ruined a Vamp C campaign as Empire stacks them and armies with them are all but invinsible.

@Nox First Love your units, Second (Most importantly) Love that you made custom unit cards for them that look vanilla. Most moders don't bother to make one for theirs, which kinda ruins the immersion for me, so thank you for the work you put into this mod. Also any chance you could make one for the Dwarves? I ask only because no one else has made one with good looking unit cards like yours. Thanks again, keep up the great work!!!

and also pls add more hp to the unit so that they can match with chaos units which has 12,000 hp

is this SFO compatible?

Its amazing!!!!!!!!!!

HOLY SHIT THEY LOOOK FUKIN AWESOME

Thanks!

Yeah I know about the launcher issue those CA idiots created. It's saddening. Fix one thing. Break three more.

Thanks for the update Nox, much appreciated =)

just time to wait for them to fix the launcher so we can enjoy the game with some fun mods ^_^

Hey Guys, its up-to-date now

hey would an update be possible since the new patch please? :>

Update please!

@琪琪不想上班 It says so, under Lord's Skills, close to the bottom. Not sure which one that is though.

Do they get buffed by Karl Franz Greatswords skills or his Reiksguards skills?

@Nox: dont know, havenot touched it yet, just imagine, lol

Hey Dan it's all up to date already :) luckily the patch didnt break my published mods so for the biggest part i just had to do some testing and struggle with the new restrictions on preview pictures. ( Thank you for this, Steam.... ). So, what's troubling you?

updating already man! lol! just kidding, i am having a big headache with my mod too

haha, no worries, but thanks :)

Nox ah amazing! Good luck with updating and all that but take your time man don't want you to think idiots like me are rushing you or anything!

Yeah I even made that unit for Warhammer 1 already and I did plan to finish the Warhammer 2 port (which is overdue anyways) today after testing and updating all my other mods. Doing all that took a bit longer than anticipated due to some problems with steam and such but i might still get them done today :)

Thanks! Just a quick question, have you ever though of possibly doing just like a dismounted sword and shield variant of Knights of the Blazing sun? Their models look and amazing and would be pretty badass dismounted.

Hey Sigmar, they are now up-to-date for today's patch. I did not find any problems but let me know if any bugs occur.

Will you update for the new DLC?

Hey Guys, Thanks everyone and I'm sorry for the late reply. All my Units are usually associated to their respective unit sets to receive the corresponding skill/technology upgrades (so these should receive both, greatswords and reiksguard upgrades).

While their armor can compensate their lower hp to some extend i do plan to tweak the stats of some of my units to better fit the balancing of warhammer II.

I will upload a combined mod soon (this weekend or the next one!) and as a lot of people seem to be asking for an SFO version I will have a look at SFO and it's balancing to make a second version of the combined mod with units stats to better fit into SFO.

Dear mod author, i am loving the whole set of your special Reiskguard of you so far, especially the gunner version, however, will it be possible to make SFO version of them, the stats mostly seem ok but the HP pool is somewhat much lower comparing to the SFO units, thank you very much for your hard work Sir !!!!

most of units in wh2 get more hit points than wh1 ,but those reiks still same hit points with wh1 version?

Do they get buffed by Karl Franz Greatswords skills or his Reiksguards skills?

first off let me say awesome unit mod thank you for giving us more knights.

just wanted to make some suggestion if possible like lower their numbers from 90 model to 75 also their speed should be lower like 26 for all Shield/Greatsword & Halbert. I just ask for the lower number because these guys are prestigious knights so they shouldn't be too many of them running around. As for the speed it just feels off that a unit with 120 armor is faster than greatsword with less armor. Once again thank you so much for this mod and keep up the awesome work I hope you continue and make regular knights, & knights of the blazing sun foot knights in the future.

Do these units benefits from the reiksguard/greatsword general skill benefits, such as: Emperors finest, imperial special forces, honest steel? great work on the unit, btw.

was there a SFO version of this?

awww that's just grand, thank you so much !

Hey Anri, as it only required 1 additional line of code for the units to wear capes, i did make a little "unofficial" version with capes. However as they're just a slightly modified version of the originals they'll only work if you uncheck the original version. I also don't want to flood the workshop with multiple marginally different variants so i'll not upload them here ^^

But you can download them from this link:
Reiksguard greatswords with capes [1drv.ms]

Just extract the .pack file and image to your warhammer 2 data folder, then select them in the mod manager and unselect the originals, then you should be good to go :)

Ahh yeah I assumed it was something like that, I have bonuses all over the place right now
so I'm not sure which ones might be affecting them. not the end of the world.

@Nox Fair enough ! These knights are a much needed core addition to empire's roster, thanks for making these !

Regarding the capes, i will leave them as they are because when i created the my first reiksguard unit i decided to only add capes to officers to help them standing out from the rest and i want to keep the same pattern across all units. That said some variant of this unit or a rare and capped super elite unit where every soldier wears capes to show their elite status might be thinkable :)

Hey BattlePanda, yes I've heard that for some people they are cheaper than regular greatsword units under some circumstances. I can't really retrace this behaviour as i didn't get around to start an empire playthrough in warhammer 2 yet. Their base costs are definitely higher than regular greatswords. However i assume this has to do with them beeing tied to the reiksguard unit set aswell as the greatswords one. They probably receive benefits from technology, etc for both unit types resulting in in them beeing rather cheap while having high stats. So i guess either i need to increase their costs a bit futher or remove them from one of both unit sets.

Unless I had some followers adjusting things these guys seem both cheaper and better in every
way compared to regular greatsword guys apart from a few bucks higher upkeep and doesn't seem very balanced if that's the case.

Might have just had a bunch of things reducing Reiksguard units cost though.

no capes

They need capes and then they will be perfect ! :p

Hi Landser, vielen Dank! Es freut mich, dass sie dir gefallen. Ich habe die Einheiten extra einzeln eingestellt, damit sich jeder die aussuchen kann, die ihm gefallen :)

Danke für diese fantastischen Einheiten und dafür, dass jede seperat erhältlich ist. :)

and I will be paitenttly waiting for the halberds of course

so a collectio willl not be savegame combitalbe?

Well between regular work and part-time studying it's primarily during weekends when i can find some time to work on my mods, but the halberdiers are already working in game, they are just missing their unit icon and aren't balanced so far.

Additional single units should be savegame compatible as long as you don't remove the mod after hiring them during your campaign. Regarding the mod collection i haven't done one so far but i'll use the same tables, IDs, names, etc. so i expect it to be interchangable with the stand alone units. Although to know for sure i would need to test this first.

@Nox how are he halberd coming along?
I am looking forward to your mod I have one queston however is the new unit you will it be save game combitable
since I will be holding off my empirem campang untill i know i can play with your units
