Skaven-Warlord Variants: ULTRA EDITION ZX!

Description
I really like Skaven Warlords. Unfortunately, they're made obsolete by other lords, heroes and even units. To rectify this, I tried to encourage their use by creating Skaven-Warlord Variants: Clan Issue. This was an enjoyable enough experience that I thought, "Hey, Skaven are well known for scavenging and their adaptability. I should make a version where the variants consist of Warlords that wear the equipment of their common foe!" then I started making this mod; then I procrastinated a bunch until today!

The Details

Includes 15 new variants based on Warlords wearing pick-of-the-litter looted equipment.

Designs try to show Skaven that embrace or try to mimic certain aspects of their enemies.

Includes my original 15 variants from my previous mod.

Port-holes, Unit-cards Included.

Unique weapons and shields for every Variant.

Intended for use with Variant Selector mod.

The Rest

This took a lot longer than I wanted it too, but whatever.
On the topic of the designs; you might have noticed a couple variants with two weapons instead of a shield. This is because the Warlord actually uses dual-sword animations so I felt I could get away with it. The idle block animation might look a bit weird, but the other block animations look perfectly fine.

Other than that; I avoided non-Skaven religious symbols as best I can since Skaven are fiercely Mono-theistic and kill any Pagan Skaven they find.
I also made sure as to give equipment that can actually be scavenged. This means no chaos warrior variants or daemon variants.

The listed faction variants are: Dwarfs, Chaos Dwarfs, Bretonnia, Cathay, Druchii, Asur, Empire, Kislev, Lizardmen, Norsca, Ogres, Tomb-Kings, Vampires and wood-elves. There is also a Green-skin variant, but it's based on Hobgoblins because I couldn't justify a Warlord scavenging Orc equipment because it'd be a down-grade 99% of the time.


If you don't want the scavenger variants, just download my other mod that I already linked a bunch.
Also, don't have both installed at once. Literally no point and might cause issues.

These are cool as fuck. I wish you could get each one for its mimic'd faction roster too, like a traitor skaven working for the enemy :p

Probably: tell me if there are issues, though.

Does this still work for 6.0?

Not on this scale nor with any extremely obvious scavenger-variants. Certainly some-thing I'll consider when I get back into the game.

Any possibility of you doing something like this for chieftains? I wouldn't expect anything of nearly the same degree as this mod but it would still be cool to see any variations you'd come up with.

It's unlikely. I don't like Ogres as much as I love Skaven, so I don't really have much interest in it. Sorry.

I'm loving this so far - amazing work! Any chance you'll make an Ogre version one day?
