i love this mod, but i think morathis regiment should be slaaneshes harvesters but thats just me, also perhaps council guard should tied to skavenblight somehow like the units with karak eight peaks

The thing about Doomfire Warlocks is that they are all Slaanesh's harvesters, lore-wise, and yet (the way I understand the lore) they do not actually like Slaanesh. They are cursed, and the only way to survive is to feed other people to Slaanesh instead of themselves. I think this is why Morathi has no real connection to Doomfire Warlocks in Total Warhammer; they are not true cultists of Slaanesh. If anything, I think they could make good companions for Malus, who is also an unwilling victim of Chaos (though whether it's a Slaaneshi or a Tzeentchian daemon varies depending on source).

The only Regiment with a hard lore connection to Morathi is the Siren of Red Ruin (I forgot to add her to the chart above, if you look above you'll see her now). The Sisters of Singing Doom Witch Elves are not Morathi's. But since Morathi is known to let Witch Elves she approves of bathe in her special cauldrons, I thought it would make sense that IF they serve Morathi, they could get a special buff. It helps that I think the Sisters of Singing Doom are not a very strong renown regiment...

The Skavenblight idea is a good one. In general I'm interested in expanding on the idea of "local" regiments a little, tying some of the regiments (especially those which are not Favoured by any faction) to important Landmarks.

@TEQUILAOFBACON Surely Morathi's should be the Ice Blades, though.

Your idea made it in! It's only a small perk. If a Skaven player has the Skavenblight landmark, their Council Guard have the custom "Scurry Forward!" ability instead of the "Scurry Away!" ability. Since Council Guard are Unbreakable, they never would have used Scurry Away, and they are pretty slow, so +10% speed isn't bad I think. But it also doesn't risk being overpowered.

On Kislev: Dazh is also a god, the god of fire specifically. So it would make just as much sense for Boris to have Tor worshippers as Dazh worshippers as his RoR. Kislev is polytheistic so it shouldn't be a lore problem for Boris to have the bear cav (example, Kostaltyn has abilities around Ursun, Tor, Dazh, and Salyak)
Alshua  [developer] 3 Oct, 2022 @ 8:33pm 
It's not impossible that Boris will end up with them. But given how central Ursun is to Warhammer 3, I suspect he'll end up with a better option. Tsar Guard are pretty much a placeholder for now; to me the other option was leaving them blank like I had with Ogres and Miao Ying.

Good news is, we'll get more RoRs this month...

I wonder if Queek should have Natty Buboe's Sharpshooters instead of Council Guard. While stormvermin much better suit his playstyle, the Natty Buboe's Sharpshooters are supposedly somewhat tied to Clan Mors according to their description.
Alshua  [developer] 23 Oct, 2022 @ 5:45pm 
Nice catch. Council Guard for Clan Mors was one of those picks where I did not have strong lore and just went with general theme, since not all factions have a loreful RoR associated with them. So I'd much rather have a lore connection, especially since Clan Mors is a recent upstart on the Council; their connection to the Council Guard is more recent than other clans, and there is no reason to believe it is particularly strong.

My only reservation is that Natty Buboe's Sharpshooters are a REALLY good unit. Snipe and Stealth really open up a whole new world for them compared to the non-RoR version. Two units of them might lead to some real nonsense. I might buff them instead (it is a unit based around a specific hero after all), though I'd want to be careful how I do that, too.

Not sure if this is the place for this, but with the new set of Regiments, maybe Miao Yings preferred regiment could be the green sentinel? Maybe just give it a stronger mirror buff or something for her, reason i thought of this is she is def. more defense orientated especially with her focus on the bastion.
Alshua  [developer] 14 Nov, 2022 @ 10:11am 
You're in just the right place, sithdude. Sorry you had to wait a while for a reply.

The Green Guardian's lore ties it to Zhao Ming's duties and territory, rather than his sister's. Unfortunately this is true for the Dune Dragons (Jade Warriors) as well. The Righteous Lances of Wei-Jin (Longma Riders) are associated with neither of them, instead serving the capital city, which is under the domain of neither sibling. So we still don't have a clear choice for Miao Ying's favoured regiment. If I had to pick one, it would be the Righteous Lances of Wei-Jin, but it's possible I'll try to wait for one more RoR pack for Miao.

The Ogre RoRs require some digging to make sense of who they might favour. The Snowhorn of Mourn is from a geographic area that is (arguably) under Greasus's sway. The Sky-Striders, with their connection to the Sky-Titans who fell to the Great Maw, were always a bit tempting for me to add to Skrag. So between the two, maybe I have a workable setup for the Ogres, at least while we wait to see what else comes out. I'm thinking on it.

I think the new Elemental Bear fits very well for Boris Ursus, however. So at least he got a really good option out of all this.

While I'm sure giving all the Chaos Daemon factions +1 to their first infantry RoRs is balanced way of handling them, I personally wouldn't mind giving Ku'gath +1 for the new nurgling RoR instead, he's fairly nurgling focused so it fits. Heck, since they're nurglings, you could even give him +2 of them, like with some other LLs who get +2 to their low tier RoRs.
Rakkarth should also have the hydra buffed since he was very well known for using them, during one of Malakieths many wars against Ulthuan he ordered Rakkarth to invade and he had DOZENS of hydra in his army, at least half of them were altered to conpletely resist magic.

He was ultimately pushed back into the sea but not before inflicting horrific casualties on the High Elves and killing lots of their mages.
