Yeah I noticed that bug when I was editing my main mod. I tried a few fixes but Im still working on a solution for that. I'll work on it some more soon and push an update

High Elf Archer Officer has a Spear equiped, uses the crossbow animation and has nothing in his hands :D

They are purely cosmetic, however it does have two potentially negative side effects

It adds an extra entity that isn’t reflected in the unit number (the officer slot) so it technically gives each unit an extra soldier for what that’s worth.

And there is a rare occasional bug where a unit that kills/fights a unit that has an officer may sometimes get inflated kill stats in the end screen and may potentially get bonus experience because of it, but I’ve played plenty of hours with this mod enabled and have never encountered this issue myself, so take that for what you will.

are these purely cosmetic?

Thank you so much for this

Minor update to bring this mod back into parity with current game version.

New officers are coming soon TM

I really like the models for these officers. Any chance you could make a Lord Variant mod with them?

I need this module, please keep improving it!

The answer is yes and no, if the game updates don’t touch the faction they’re a part of or any of the models the officers use then yes it *shouldn’t* have any problems. But sometimes the game just breaks things especially with rapid fire hot fixes so your mileage may vary.

Is this generally compatible regardless of game version, or does it need an update?

a armored dwarf mod would be cool :>

could you somehow make the skaven slave officer a packmaster?

check my last screenshot for reference

the spearmen at arms have some buggy animation one officer is holding a shield with his feed or the shild is floating in the air, the rest seems fine

can i use this mod with zerkis officer mod?

Very nice ! Banners would be awsome

Yes yes, skaven officer-leaders!

When updating this mod and adding some new officers it came to my realization that some of the animation sets I used for certain units came with their matched combat animations.

So theres a little side bonus of sometimes you might see certain officer types doing kill animations lol

WOOHOOOOOO excited for banners and mod compatiblity with other modsss

been looking for a mod like this forever. thx

Great! I look forward to seeing your updates!

Make sure to make them look kitted out

I’m gonna flesh the mod out with more officers, at least one per faction first. Then I’ll start porting it with inter mod compatibility

Yeah that's what I would suggest - keep the only popular mods and if someone wants to make another submod, they could just use this mod as a template. Simple enough really.

Nice one Amber! Hoping to see that at some point but no rush :P

I can try, but I can’t guarantee it

could you add banners?

I could look into it, though I’d probably only do the most popular ones like Lily’s or maybe SFO

Brilliant! It should work with Hooveric's reskin if you put it before his mod, but I'm not 100%...

Are you going to add compatibility with other unit mods? Like the most popular ones?

Nah, I haven't tested any kind of compatibility between other mods as of yet. I imagine it would partially work with hooveric with the right load order? Not sure. As for the other "Officers" mod, that was the one I saw that inspired me to add something similar. I thought it was a shame that it seemed abandoned entirely.

I think that mod is fully deprecated and most likely broken with the version of the game we have today, but I can't fully confirm that.

Obviously this works with your reskins (although in your megapack, these officers are included so this mod is not needed) but what about, let's say, if Hooeveric Reskin is used? Or is this intended strictly for vanilla troops?

Did you ever try what happens when using this together with the mod "Officers" (which used to give Cathay and Kislev Officers, not sure whether it's still updated, maybe one of the abandoned mods you mentioned)?

Very cool!
