Description:
What it does:

When playing as the daemons of chaos (the daemon prince) faction, allows the player to recruit the four boss daemon princes as legendary lords after they have been beaten in their survival battle. Each lord comes fully customisable just like the normal daemon prince, except they are limited to the body parts of their respective god and undivided pieces. Unfortunately weapons can’t be changed, game just doesn’t like it.

The aim of this mod is to give the daemon prince faction a few more special lords that can somewhat play into the versatile roster of units, with armies that can be built somewhere between the completely flexible undivided prince and the mono-god greater daemons

Balance:

A few adjustments had to be made to the Bosses to get them in line with other CA lords:
– Health reduced to match the base deamon prince’s. This will make the survival battles a bit easier
– Each has an innate trait, considerably buffing mortal chaos units. This will make the survival battles a bit harder
– Gives each daemon prince skills, notably the red, blue and combat yellow skills of their greater daemon kin. Plus a small legendary lord style top line with the lesser daemon lord’s locus abilities. This will have no effect on survival battles as they don’t come levelled
Let me know what you think, I’ve left almost everything else as CA put them maybe leaving them a bit on the weaker side. I’ll probably make a submod to use the old health if desired.

Compatibility:

Overall shouldn’t be too bad, may conflict with mods that change the armoury sets
Modder info: this mod datacores the armory_item_set_items table
Save game Compatibility: will work fine but you will have to redo completed realms to get the lords

Known Issues:

The courtesan is a bit weak due to a loss of the arm weapon things, not much I can do unless I can get weapon swapping working.
If you are playing as a different faction then completing a realm will still give the lords to the daemon prince’s faction. More of a feature than a bug, if you don’t want this to happen just switch off the mod when playing as other factions.

Optional Adjustments:

Add lords immediately: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2801005757

Change the four recruited daemon prince’s base stats to match Daniels new stats: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2814260281
