Updated for 7.0
DESCRIPTION

The Ogres – a creation of the Old Ones meant to withstand the corruption of Chaos, yet unfinished. Resistant but not immune to the influence of the Ruinous Powers, some of them swear allegiance to the very Gods they were created to destroy.

Since the Ogres are a very archaic and authentic race, I wanted to create some myself and ended up with the Chaos Ogres, which in the end turned out as a roster addition for the Warriors of Chaos, the Chaos Dwarfs and the Ogre Kingdoms.

I have been working on this mod for a long while and hope you will enjoy it!

FEATURES
  • custom faction, including legendary lord and custom buildings
  • 1 generic lord type
  • 5 generic hero types
  • 16 units
  • new buildings and landmarks

The Devourers – Custom Faction


The Devourers are a conquest-focused faction with strong armies but a limited economy.

  • replaces the WoC faction of the ‘Khazag’ (not to be confused with the norscan ‘Khazag’ faction from LCCP)
  • available for IE, IEE and The Old World Campaign
  • ‘Ghurzhaal the Dreaded Maw’ as legendary lord
  • custom buildings

CHAOS OGRE TYRANT


The Chaos Ogre Tyrant is a strong and tanky melee fighter. Being mostly an undivided character, this generic lord type is only available for Archaon, Kholek and Be’lakor.

CHAOS OGRE BRUISER


The Chaos Ogre Bruiser is a support character available for all Warrior of Chaos factions.

DEVOTED CHAOS OGRES


The Exalted Chaos Ogres are generic heroes and feature different skills, strengths and weaknesses depending on the dark deity which they devoted themselves to. On the battlefield they fulfil mostly a support role but are also decent fighters.

Additionally, there is also one Chaos Ogre unit for each Chaos God. While all of them are strong fighters, their roles are pretty different.

In campaign, the Warrior of Chaos factions have access to the units aligned to their respective god (f.e. Valkia has access to Chaos Ogres of Khorne and Exalted Chaos Ogres of Khorne).
The only exceptions are again Archaon, Kholek and Be’lakor with all of them having access to all devoted Chaos Ogres. All of the devoted Chaos Ogres can be recruited in a special shrine building.

UNDIVIDED CHAOS OGRES


The undivided Chaos Ogres are rather offensive troops. They are available for all Warrior of Chaos factions and can be recruited in a new building chain. The Forsaken Gnoblar units are only available for the Ogre Kingdoms.

There will be no warband upgrade mechanic for the Chaos Ogres to allow for maximum compatibility with other mods.

Chaos Dwarfs

The Chaos Dwarfs have limited access to some of the Chaos Ogre units via new landmarks in the following locations:

  • Zharr-Naggrund
  • Tower of Gorgoth
  • Karak Dum
  • Black Fortress
  • The Volary
  • Bloodwind Keep

Ogre Kingdoms

The Ogre Kingdoms have limited access to some of the Chaos Ogre units via new landmarks in the following locations:

  • The Challenge Stone
  • Ruins End
  • Tribeslaughter
  • Granite Spikes
  • Bloodpeak
  • Tower of Khrakk

Monogods and Daemons of Chaos

Not supported. Do not ask for it. It’s confusing enough to keep the mod updated for 3 different races. Make a submod yourself.

COMPATIBILITY

There should be no compatibility issues.
My mod is compatible with Variant Selector, Tabletop Caps and The Old World Campaign.
The mod is compatible for LCCP when playing as Deathsword’s Warband.

SFO submod
Zharrhammer submod
