Chaos Dwarfs - Ogre Labourers

Description
This mod adds Ogre Labourers to the Chaos Dwarfs. They can be recruited from any tier 2 settlement and are a cheap anti-large unit for the early game.

Since the Chaos Dwarfs have slave ogres in the lore, it just felt right to include such a unit for them. They seem to hold fine against early game cavalry and don’t perform well against infantry, but I mostly eyeballed the stats.

I stripped down the Ogre Bulls, put them in chains and gave them the Dragon Ogres’ 2-hand weapons. Since they use the Maneaters’ animation, the model doesn’t always work properly and some clipping is visible, but I think it’s a minor issue and won’t be noticed too much in battle.

The unit card seemed to be a concept art for Warhammer Online, but I’m not entirely sure. If anyone is good with unit cards and wants to create a more fitting one, please let me know.

Since I hardly play anymore, I will most likely not support the mod in the future. Please don’t ask for updates with the next patch and hope it remains working. Everyone is free to take whatever they want for their own use and/or update it accordingly! No credits needed, but appreciated.

this mod is amazing, however the unit is too good. It appears balanced but I ended up loading my armies with them, since 1) labor units are uncapped 2) they are more effective in most regards than basic chaos dwarf warriors, and far faster 3) stacking Ogre unit with smaller units is super strong, and while Ogres are limited to weak gnoblars, you can pair with this unit with hobgoblins, orc laborers, even chaos dwarves.

They don't require a building chain, have anti large and anti armor, have the most models of any Ogre unit, and a great charge and mass that makes up for any low MA. Their high HP and ability to mix with infantry units to absorb hits means their model count is full after "losing" 30% of their health in battle.

I would suggest also toning down the numbers - it should be like 10%-15% more than Ogre Bulls, not 33% more units. MD should also be lower, so they can actually have a weakness compared with other Ogre Bulls.

@Selian There is a Midjourney discord where you can just message a bot with a prompt and even give it "source" images to steer the direction of the generated art. Just google "Midjourney discord" and you should find the link & a guide. Havent done much with it but it seems like it should be possible :steamhappy:
