Warriors of Excess 7.0

This mod adds a Chaos Warrior (Warriors of Excess) unit to the Slaanesh and Daemon Price factions. I used assets from the Mirror Guard, Keeper of Secrets, Devoted Marauders, Cultish of Slaanesh, and the Chaos Warriors of Slaanesh to ‘kitbash’ this model together.

These new units previously provides good looks and defensive ability to a roster that lacked it. Now with the ‘Champions of Chaos’ DLC out, the Warriors of Excess provide an additional variation of the Chaos Warriors of Slaanesh with slightly more aggressive stats that also provide a small utility in the form of ‘Charmed Attacks’ (reduces Melee Attack of other units they hit by 8).

The stats are very close to baseline Chaos Warriors of Slaanesh. In my testing, they generally do better than standard Chaos Warriors of Slaanesh, but lose to the Hellscourge variant (which has more defensive staying power).

Can Legions of Chaos recruit this unit?
Yes! They are recruited from the Slaaneshi Shrine (Tier 3) along with the Exalted Daemonettes.
For N’Kari, they are recruited from the Fragrant Pavilion (Tier 2) along with the Hellscourges (Marauders with whips).

Do the Chaos Warriors of Slaanesh benefit from skills and technologies?
Yes, they will benefit from any technologies that improve Chaos Warriors of Slaanesh. Tooltips have been updated to reflect this.
