I have officially concluded my modding journey on this workshop.
As always: feel free to make any kind of submods for any of my mods.

This is very fitting, as the lore heavily implies that these mysterious ancient creatures are likely some leftover remnant of the time of the Old Ones.

@Chomp I gave them the Kroxigor and lizardmen beast sets so they should get lord and tech bonuses from those categories.
Chomp 18 Jan, 2022 @ 1:19pm 
what lord skills they use? the kroxi ones?

Oh yeah undeads from different races would be really cool to see.
Kinda sad that we pretty much only got ChaosRobie's Skeleton Dwarfs so far.

Going back to Azhag, CA could have gone a bit further and made it so he could raise the dead with a mix of lore of death and lore of vampire. Possibly given him the ability to recruit undead after a battle like Vampire Counts can. I'd also love to see CA or a modder made undead orcs, dwarfs, goblins, skaven and lizardmen. The way it'd work is after fighting a faction with an exclusive body type you could raise the dead after the battle and have a very diverse undead army. Maybe even different tiers of them, like normal cannon fodder skeleton orcs and Grave Guard Orcs with different random weapons.... I really went off on some ideas there lol.

Azhag wasn't exactly who I was referencing when I gave that example, just any random ork or goblin coming across a powerful artifact and soon realising they have an exclusive power when it comes to Green Skins. I've always considered Warhammer Fantasy to be very open ended when it comes to making your own lore and characters, that's part of the reason why I love mods like this one that add to the lore and allow stories to run wild. "How DID the Zoats end up fighting for the Lizardmen?" for example.

P.S. Always found the entire Azhag - Crown of Sorcery story kinda cool but really weird.
I mean: you get the magical crown of the greatest Necromancer of all times and then you only get access to the lore of death but not the lore of vampires??
I call BS on that.

Well...let's just say that the Old Ones had a major role in ending the age of dragons (or ice age) with a radical climate change that caused a forced deep slumber in almost all of them.
So yeah I can't generally picture Dragons on friendly terms with the favourite children of the Old Ones, BUT as you already mentioned with Azhag, lore (especially Warhammer stuff) can be full of weird twists and even messy at times.
For example Dragons are known to despise Chaos which Is why they helped Aenarion and yet Galrauch was corrupted by Tzeentch and become the first of the Chaos Dragons.
So yeah, all in all I wouldn't be against Dragons teaming up with Lizardmen.

I know a lot about the lore, but not a lot about what's "unloreful" when it comes to individual units like Dragon Ogres, dragons and other monsters. It just makes sense to me that Green Skins would have almost 90% of all monsters in their roster as long as it's not a demon, Chaos corrupted or undead. Even then I'm sure there's been an orc sometime in the Warhammer Fantasy timeline where he was like "whah dis?" and picked up some kind of amulet or staff that allowed him to raise the dead.

Praise the Old Ones! :summer2019tortoise:

@Purge8642 Would be cool but probably a bit unloreful considering the history between The Dragons and the Old Ones.
I'm playing around with the forest dragon models to see if I can attach some Lizardmen Heraldry and get a decent result, we'll see.
If I manage to publish It I'll probably change the unit name though, like Jungle Dragon or something like that.

good, the great plan has you in it brother
Purge8642 16 Jan, 2022 @ 10:27pm 
This is a really great idea. A forest dragon would be cool too. :steamhappy:

Very nice, and it's really not that unloreful. Zoats could team up with the Children of The Old Ones.
