Waaagh! Movement Fix

In Total War: Warhammer 2, we had the ability (whether intended or not) to assign Lords to Waaagh! Supporting Armies in order to remove the massive penalty to campaign movement that the main army got when a Waaagh! was declared. This mostly* (see below) fixed the movement problem, and also allowed the Waaagh! army to replenish.


I've included images with highlights, but purely in text format is as follows.

• Step 1: After declaring a Waaagh!, select any army which has the Waaagh! Supporting Army.
  
• Step 2: Click the Waaagh! Army View.
  
• Step 3: Click "Character Details"
  
• Step 4: Click "Replace Lord"
  
• Step 5: Select whichever Lord in the list you wish to assign to the Waaagh! Supporting Army and click the tick.
  
• Step 6: Smash da gitz!

I don't remember any actual hard evidence other than some vague comments about whether or not CA intended this negative campaign movement effect. But I also never saw them attempt to fix the AI assigning Lords to their Waaagh! armies and bypassing the said effect. So screw it, we're bringing it back because at least with this it doesn't feel crippling to call a Waaagh!


Yeah, so... Any Lord you place in charge of a Waaagh! army is going to level up, has skills, can equip items and ancillaries, but they'll also die when the Waaagh! ends. So unless they've got Immortality (or are a Legendary Lord) when the Waaagh! ends, they're gone for good unless you replace them prior to the end of the Waaagh!

This can be used to level up Lords outside of having them commanding your main armies as long as they are either immortal or you remember to replace/disband them before they get wounded at the end of the Waaagh!

The AI should also be able to use this same feature.


The restoration of campaign movement range might NOT apply on the turn you replace your Lord in the Waaagh! army. It (from very limited testing) happens at the START of your next turn in most cases. Additionally, any skill or trait that grants your MAIN ARMY LORD some type of bonus to campaign movement range, like Route Marcher, will not carry over to the Waaagh! Supporting Army (unless the Lord of the Waaagh! Supporting Army also has Route Marcher).

If the Main Army Lord has more bonuses to campaign movement range, then your overall movement range will be diminished slightly. Though it will still be an improvement to the base system with no Lord assigned to the Waaagh! Supporting Army.


No Idea. In theory it should work just fine with the 5 main Greenskin factions, but please report any issues that you find.


The base mod does not work alongside SFO. However, a compatibility mod for that can be found here . Don't run both Waaagh! Movement Fix mods at the same time and only use the one you need.
