Forgosth's Khorne units booster pack

Description
This mod adds 5 brand new units to the Khorne roster, and a variant of the Khorne soul grinder. The new units are non-canon but made to stick to the Khorne thematics and mechanics.

This is my first mod, so despise my tests I hope my inexperience will not bring you unwanted problems. I still apologize in advance for any of them.

New Units:
  • T1 : Bloodlings
  • T2 : Bloodshots
  • T3 : Hemorragers
  • T4 : Gore Chargers
  • T4 : Chosen Bloodshots
  • T5 : Pit Champions
  • T5 : Soul Grinder with Skull Canon
  • T5 : Mastodons

Bloodlings:
Small horde of daemons mid-way between hounds and nasty skulkers. Very Fragile but mobile enough, they inflict a small DOT on their target when then win a fight. Better used as support of your better close combat units, they are hard countered by any cavalry.

Bloodshots:
Khorne warriors equipped with shotgun-like weapons. They have an extremely short range but they do quite some damage to unarmored targets. They also have the skull taking ability to get back ammo with time passed in close combat. They are a bit "technical" but they really shine in two use cases: first, flanking and shooting in the back of a target already engaged in close combat. Second: while braced and without ordering them to fight an enemy unit back, their first ranks will fight in close combat efficiently enough, replenishing ammo, while the back ranks still fire their deadly shots.

Hemorragers:
A horde of mobile and deadly daemons. Packing frenzy, a DOT and Bloodgreed, they should be a nightmare for your enemies in close combat. Bringing diversity to tier 3 armies, they should perform well when assisted by warriors for tanking, chariots for staggering enemies, or bloodletters to kill opponents even faster.

Gore Chargers:
A team of Gorebeasts covered in blades. Similar to armored trolls, their armor allow them to have permanent damage mirror in close combat. Formidable against small damage-high entities number units, you can send them in a mosh pit and let them do their work while you focus on your more micro-heavy units. That said, they should be kept away from large and single entities opponents, as they will perform bafly against them.

Pit Champions:
The very best Khorne infantry has to offer. They should dominate any close combat and will be stronger with each kill they make. Quite vulnerable to missiles and turrets, they probably need some support to deny the enemies the usage of their missile weapons. Once in close combat, they will slay anything, but they're only 16: supporting them with warrior can be a good idea to mitigate damage taken.

Soul Grinder with Skull Canon:
I found the Khorne Soul Grinder a bit underwhelming, so I simply made a more expensive version with a skull canon and Skull Taking ability to replenish ammo. It's IMO a bit funnier this way and the other one is still there anyway.

Notes / Known Issues :
Gore Chargers have a minor animation bug, where they bounce back to their position after a jumping attack. It's fun to watch but I'm working on a solution to the problem.

Special Thanks
This mod would not exist without the wonderful modding community and the tools they developped.
So my very sincere thanks go to the RPFM development team, TheAssetEditor development team, Cryswar for his tutorials, and the Modding Den discord community for their advises.
I'd like to also thanks DarkRite for poiting me how to apply campaign bonuses on new units.

Thanks a lot for looking at this mod ! Please feel free to post a comment if you have anything to say about the mod, and please have a wonderful day.
