Hello I am Theakrus and Welcome to my Cathay Unit Mod.
This mod gives 4 new units as variants of existing units for a more interesting and expanded experience while maintaining balance and flavor.
-Sky-junk (Star Flash Rockets)
A Sky-junk that fires blinding magical projectiles that heavily disrupt unit formations. Very good against ranged units, specially Tzeentch pink and blues, only about 60% of the regular Sky-junks firepower with less explosive damage and ap.
-Sky-junk (Sky Cannon)
A Sky-junk equipped with a sky cannon, this cannon fires a burst of 3 projectiles that have less mass, velocity and range than that of the traditional Grand Cannon. It’s angle of fire allows it to make contact more consistently regardless of terrain. (The animation was not rigged for shooting 3 projectiles in a volley so it will show 66 ammunition in battles 3 shots per volley = 22 when out of battle, cannot change this)
-Jade Warriors (Spears)
Jade Warriors equipped with spears. Pretty straight forward, nothing out of the ordinary here.
-Celestial Dragon Guard (Tower Shields)
These Celestial Dragon Guard function as a durable line unit for late game. They have really nice shield block chance and charge defense. Their high stats make them hard to get through and they cost *slightly* less than their counterparts with reduced damage output. They’ll be better at clearing chaff.
Please see breakdown of unit stats above.

All units scale with their counterparts via redline skills and tech. They are pretty standardized considering they are just variants of existing unit class.

This mod’s unit cards were commissioned by R1iko please checkout/use his mod as the unit cards will seamlessly go with his stunning work.

Thank you to Moloch this literally wouldn’t have been possible without him, the Cannon Junk is 110% his design and together we worked through A LOT to make it work over the last months. Not to mention the constant retex with .dds files (see contributors).
Thank you to Hazard for the awesome cinematic screenshots on short notice!!!
Thank you Dead Baron for letting me use the rerigged shield asset from the Jade Warriors (Shields) Standalone mod

Q: Will you make this mod compatible with X-Y-Z/make a sub mod for X-Y-Z?
A: No, this is the most annoying request for modders, please DO NOT ask for this, there are plenty of people who only do submods, please ask them. PLEASE
–
Q: Why is this mod making my game crash?
A: Please uncheck and check all of your mods, if this mod works alone then it isn’t crashing your game it is conflicting with another mod editing the same tables.
–
Q: Can you add these units? Is there a combined file for all your mods?
A: I rarely update my mods with new unit requests as I am constantly moving to and assisting other projects, these mods are included in my collections please subscribe to all at once there.
I love comments and feedback but with the volume of them all I ask is you read these descriptions before commenting, if your comment was deleted/ignored there is a 99% chance it was addressed in this description.
Thanks!
