Lore-based Unit Mod - Version 25

Description
Welcome to the Lore-based Unit Mod - Version 25!

In this update I have added one new unit to the High Elves, one new unit to the Wood Elves, and two new units to the Greenskins.

This mod adds 96 units to various factions in TWW3. All are derived from various types of Warhammer lore, including army books, novels, artwork ,and miniatures. They can be recruited by all related factions, are affected by the associated technology trees, have new unit cards, and are not available as garrisons because the existing garrisons for various factions have been balanced alongside one another, and I do not wish to disrupt that. Their statistics are also developed for the vanilla game. The units are as follows:

Nalier 9 Jul @ 4:15am 
Could you make the units togglable in the mod manager?

ByzantineBasileus:Good job. :)

I launched a custom battle against Bretonnia to check it out and immediately noticed that "Pegasus Knights – Swords and Shields (Bretonnia Army Book 6th Edition)" some knights were missing their torsos. XD

Ivrain: fixed.

The models of these two units are broken (just a mess of polygons)

If someone were to offer to do a new batch I unit cards, I would be open to it. I am not much of an artist, so images of units from the game is the best I can do.

yep its working good. hopefully we can see better unit cards in the future but the units are great and as far as im aware "playing an empire faction" the units are correctly getting buffed by skills and tech trees
