Been asking for this for years, posting on discord, but no one seemed interested. Thanks so much to the author! all dogs go to heaven!

I won't be doing a hero version, doesn't fit with what Redmaw actually is/was.
Regarding SFO, I won't be doing any compatibility myself but anyone is free to make a submod.

has anyone talked about doing an SFO version for this? Would really be perfect if instead of the mutated war hound unit they did he just used this and made it a hero locked to only one eye

Love this mod, but Legendary Hero version?

Redmaw is such a good boi.

Good doggie

Yeah it's a struggle to balance free summons, on the same note though the game gives caster BM 3 free cygor summons so I decided it was fair. :P sidenote though summons don't benefit from any skills or techs the only reason Redmaw gets buffs from those certain skills is because the unit that is summoned is different.

good boys are good boys even when they are evil mutants. rather like the mod and it kinda goes with how he buffs hounds and 'lesser beasts' as it were.

he still feels a tiny bit unbalanced though, think in part cause he is a free summon and thus doesn't have toworry about how hurt he gets. still it is a good idea and gives kazrak a bit more identity than he initailly had.

Add a good boy to you army....ok this make me happy
thorondragon 27 Jul, 2021 @ 4:15am 
never knew that they were basically one model. tis intersting to say the least.
JvJ  [author] 26 Jul, 2021 @ 7:00am 
Not really, Skarsnik and Gobbla have their own unique skeleton, which is beyond the realms of possibility for me and most modders, even if we wanted to.
[PuB] Axlegolas 26 Jul, 2021 @ 4:40am 
is it possible to make a version where Redmaw acts like a companion such as Skarsnik's pet?
titanbass1 24 Jul, 2021 @ 8:24pm 
Ah I see makes sense. I will see if I know any of those. That is super cool though.
In any case, Lirieth isn't in the army books to my knowledge, but appears in Thorpe's books. Basically she is Hellebron's doppelganger. They bolster each other and fight with the same dagger sword duo. Love taking psychedelics before fights. Very addicted to blood. Was the other Bride of Khaine and both of them led worships for Naggorothi.
JvJ  [author] 24 Jul, 2021 @ 7:29pm 
If that is the case though I can certainly peep it, not a huge DE fan so I've never really deeped into their armybooks
JvJ  [author] 24 Jul, 2021 @ 7:26pm 
I feel that would fall more under a new character, I was thinking more in the lines of TT characters who had a companion model with its own stats and special rules. Like Skarsnik and Gobbla, Sayl and Nightmaw, Thanquol and Boneripper and Khazrak and Redmaw. That kind of thing.
titanbass1 24 Jul, 2021 @ 7:09pm 
JvJ did you have any thoughts on Lirieth as a potential companion for Hellebron? Sorry if you saw it already, just curious since you were looking for others.
8-The-General-8 23 Jul, 2021 @ 10:28pm 
Awesome! Good job.
Magnus the Rad 23 Jul, 2021 @ 4:04pm 
Gobbla: finally, a worthy opponent, our battle will be LEGENDARY...
like that's ever gonna happen
*WHEEEEEZEEEEE* LOOK AAAAAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA
Rusty Shackleford 23 Jul, 2021 @ 3:24pm 
Thank you! I really need to read the army books.
JvJ  [author] 23 Jul, 2021 @ 2:05pm 
@Rusty Shackleford "Khazrak fought his way through the soldiers of Middenheim to confront the Elector. He threw him from his horse, pinned him to the ground, and with slow deliberation, gouged out one of his eyes
with the tip of a horn. Just as with Graktar, Khazrak allowed his foe to live, and some believe that he actually enjoys matching his wits against Todbringer, seeing it as a challenge to his skills. The Elector has since increased the bounty for Khazrak's death to ten thousand gold crowns. He almost caught Khazrak again a few months later, but the Beastlord 'slipped away. However,
Count Todbringer made a point of slaying the hound Redmaw and hanging its remains up on the walls of Middenheim, and Khazrak is now devising a way to repay this affront to his pride."
JvJ  [author] 23 Jul, 2021 @ 5:06am 
But in short it goes like so, Redmaw saves Khazrak from Toddy when Toddy takes his eye, Khazrak gets mad ambushes Toddy and takes Toddy's eye, Toddy gets mad hunts Khazrak finally corners him but Khazrak slips away but Toddy manages to kill Redmaw and then hangs his corpse on the walls of Middenheim.
JvJ  [author] 23 Jul, 2021 @ 5:02am 
It's in Khazrak's backstory in the 6th Edition Beasts of Chaos book, i can drop you a quote later on after i have finished work.
Rusty Shackleford 23 Jul, 2021 @ 2:39am 
Where is it said that Red Maw was killed by Boris? Red Maw barely has pages on the wikis.
Reddragonman87 22 Jul, 2021 @ 4:40pm 
Oh here's a though, what if he pulled Kazraks chariot?
titanbass1 22 Jul, 2021 @ 3:20pm 
Yes he is @Aphotep @Mortarch of Blood
Aphotep 22 Jul, 2021 @ 3:16pm 
Ghoritch is already in the game as a legendary hero, though?
Ciaphas Cain 22 Jul, 2021 @ 2:13pm 
Thrott has Ghoritch - A former general of Archaon the Everchosen, - Throt transplanted his brain into the body of a Rat Ogre, creating an aberration of incredible speed. That's one case of a "pet" but maybe a Rat Ogre is a bit too big? Not sure whether that would be a good thing to introduce, iI'll keep looking!
Shigen 22 Jul, 2021 @ 1:25pm 
Great mod man! And my condolences about Bobbi :(

@rastavor it is not if you already put points into Khazrak's unique skill chain, I recommend using respec mod to refund all his points, save the game, then activate this mod and load back into that file to be able to save the points that would've been eaten by the skill change.
titanbass1 22 Jul, 2021 @ 6:31am 
One companions I know of is Lirieth. She is the sister of Hellebron, and I don't know if she died in the lore.
Decomposed 22 Jul, 2021 @ 6:11am 
Sorry to hear for your dog. Have a like and award to cheer you up a bit.
Ciaphas Cain 22 Jul, 2021 @ 3:09am 
I'll do my best to try and remember others then, glad you're up for more :)
JvJ  [author] 22 Jul, 2021 @ 3:06am 
@Mortarch of Blood, if you know anymore that fit for any of the characters already in game, then let me know. The only other Character/Companion pair that comes to mind is Sayl the Faithless and Nightmaw but Sayl isn't in game yet.
Ciaphas Cain 22 Jul, 2021 @ 3:02am 
Oh shit just noticed the bit about Bobbi :(
Im so sorry to hear that dude, I'm certain he was an awesome friend. x
Ciaphas Cain 22 Jul, 2021 @ 2:59am 
ah great to see him back! Good job JvJ, don't see enough companions in this game. Do more! :P
JvJ  [author] 22 Jul, 2021 @ 2:43am 
Thanks everyone for the kind words, it's truly appreciated.
@rastavor I'm not 100% sure on that, if you try it do let me know though.
rastavor 22 Jul, 2021 @ 1:31am 
is this save game compatible?

RIP Bobbi T__T
dinovart 22 Jul, 2021 @ 1:29am 
Just in line with last TWWH 2 patch. One of vampire heroes (king of the dead) is named in memory of CA beta tester. Of course it`s not as glorious way as erect huge stone statures etc., but still a way to immortalize any dear creature. This is the best way to include famousf lore hound in final version TWWH 2, I like it.
Redbeard 21 Jul, 2021 @ 10:07pm 
All dogs go to heaven. RIP Bobbi, Thanks for the great mod.
Lou Tibus 21 Jul, 2021 @ 9:31pm 
RIP Bobbi.

Lyras Sleekhide the Depraved 21 Jul, 2021 @ 6:27pm 
Great mod J, and I'm sorry for your loss.
Shadowman528 21 Jul, 2021 @ 5:19pm 
Good job on the mod, and I'm sorry for your loss, J. Bobbi was a great doggo.
