Description:

Assassins are masters of a subtle and murderous magic, trained from infancy to be the chosen warriors of Khaine. They move silently and with a precision that surpasses even the standards of other Elves. Blindfolded, an Assassin can walk sure-footedly across the spears of an embattled phalanx, or strike a precise flurry of blows so that each cut exploits a different weakness of armour or flesh. Assassins are also masters of using poison, and they coat their weapons in a variety of toxins – some are deadly, others paralyse or stupefy their victim. One scratch from some of these poisons is enough to send a man into agonising paroxysms as his nerves burn, his heart explodes or his bones crack and shatter. Assassins take great pleasure in the awful demises of their victims and often keep prisoners alive for many days. Often, they extract confessions and information from captives much more quickly than the crude tortures used by other Naggarothi interrogators.


Featuring 3 new Assassin units with 5 variants

A female Khainite Assassin is added to the dark elves. This is made of 3 units, each with a different set of weapons and slightly different stats to match. Now choose between dual weapons, dagger and bow, or sword and handbow. These options each have a unique category icon in campaign.

What does this mod add?

This mod adds 3 new hero units to the dark elves. One is a female version of the Khainite Assassin, the second and third are alternate weapon choices. That’s 4 assassins to choose from now!

Sword & Handbow Khainite Assassin

The first unit is an exact copy of the male khainite assassin. This one has a sword and handbow, and shares the same stats. It’s just a gender swap.

Dual Weapon Khainite Assassin

A melee only variant. It’s a female assassin that doesn’t have a crossbow or a bow, but excels at speed and damage. This one is great at dueling lords up close, and then chasing them down to their death.

Sword & Bow Khainite Assassin

This one has a heavy ranged focus. It trades some melee attack power for a superior arrow game. Increased range and extra armor piercing.

Variants

All 5 new variants are shared among the 3 new units, so you can choose which weapon you want and which variant you want.
