Could this be approved as a lobby-only target dummy mod?
I think if you pared down the features a little you could basicaly create the ultimate target dummy mod.

1. The list of summons is limited to enemies that actualy spawn in the official game, so no misc creature entries like pigs and such.
2. AI is always disabled, so the things you summon are only good as static target dummies.
3. Only 5 horde enemies, 3 elite/special enemies and 1 boss creature can be summoned at a time. If you try to summon more than that, or a different type of monster it will automatically remove the old ones.
4. To prevent trolling, monsters can only be summoned within the training ground area and nowhere else in the keep.
5. Also there is a minimum radius around other players where you can't summon, to prevent people from getting stuck.

This mod would add useful functionality to the base game and has no effect on player progression so I think it has a decent chance of being approved..Currently we only have 2 types of target dummies, both of which count as skaven IIRC. This mod would allow you to test your equipment against any combination of race/armour type.

I like these ideas. Perhaps another part of the keep could be opened up such as the building behind the water wheel? This could be a dedicated spawn area, such that mobs cannot be spawned / pushed outside of it.

The training mobs could be added to the "law" such that they are illusions created by Olesya?

That's a good idea actually, you could easily explain some kind of "holodeck" room where you can hit a button and spawn anything you like using Olesya's illusion magic

Agreed. I could really use some practice kiting certain minibosses and enemies, but preferably without the distraction of other players. I really like the a hologram idea or something similar to that. Something like the Training grounds in World of Warcraft.

"Currently we only have 2 types of target dummies, both of which count as skaven IIRC."

Only the armoured ones are skaven; the infantry ones are chaos.

It would be really nice to have dummies for the other combinations too: (heavy) armoured chaos, infantry chaos, berserkers and monster.
