Description:

This mod adds in Merwyrms, Sciowyrms, and Lothern Skycutters for the High Elves and Pagowyrms, Sciowyrms, Sea Dragons, and Helldrakes for the Dark Elves.

Description
Wyrms

Merwyrms and Sciowyrms are recruitable at ports for all High Elf factions. Merwyrms have poisonous attacks, while Sciowyrms have an leadership-reducing aura. High Elves also get a level 40 Regiment of Renown version of the Merwyrm, Amanar themself.

Dark Elves can recruit Pagowyrms and Sciowyrms at their ports and from Black Arks. Pagowyrms have a melee attack-reducing aura.

All Wyrms have a special ability that triggers during sea/island battles, increasing speed, attack, and defense.

Undead Amanar has also been added as a mount for all four of the Vampire Coast faction leaders once they reach level 30.

Sea Dragons and Helldrakes

Sea Dragons are single-entity monsters and they can’t fly like other dragons. They have a "Briney Breath" attack that imparts a "waterlogged" debuff, lower magic resistance but raising fire resistance. An Admiral can get a Sea Dragon as a mount at level 20. They keep their crossbow attack while mounted. Lokhir gets a special Sea Dragon mount as well.

Helldrakes are smaller Sea Dragons that fight in a pack and have frenzy. Helldrakes are recruited from the tier 4 Beastmaster’s Stables building.

Lothern Skycutters

The Skycutter is a flying unit with fire-while-moving ranged attacks. The miniature bolt-thrower actually works! It’s also got a few archers on it’s deck, providing even more firepower. It’s basically a great eagle in melee combat, so don’t expect anything too amazing in that department. You recruit the Skycutter from the Ithilmar Smith with the Grove building as an additional requirement. I’ve also added a canon RoR, the Sons of Kalagan. They have a healing ability.

All units benefit from skills, technologies, and buildings, tool-tips have been updated to reflect this.

Compatibility Mods

Vandy’s Mod Configuration Tool can be used to enable/disable units a la carte.
