Moulder’s Menagerie (Chimaerats, Stormfiends, and More!)
This mod adds in Chimaerats, Aberrations, Armoured Rat Ogres, Giant Rats, Burrowing Behemoths, and Stormfiends for the Skaven.
Chimaerats are anti-infantry single-entity monsters recruitable by all Skaven factions. They are recruitable at tier 5 at the Laboratory. Chimaerats have regeneration as well as a warpfire breath attack.
Aberrations are unbreakable monstrous infantry. They are recruitable at tier 1 at the Growth Vats. Aberrations can rampage.
Burrowing Behemoths are single-entity monsters, recruitable at tier 4. They can break walls using a new digging animation that I made! And they can burrow, effectively allowing them to teleport across the battlefield!
Giant Rats are another meat shield and Armoured Rat Ogres are exactly what they sound like.
Stormfiends are monstrous infantry and monstrous missile infantry. There’s the Ratling Cannon, Warpfire Projector, and Windlauncher versions which have ranged attacks. Then there’s the Warp Brazier, Grinderfist, Shock Gauntlet, and Doomflayer Gauntlet versions which are melee-oriented. None of these are available from the Growth Vat and require both the level 4/5 Lab and level 4/5 Mutation building to recruit. When playing as Clan Skryre, Stormfiends have a section in the Forbidden Workshop, with a some upgrades and rewards.
